Nah, I'll let people know it has been modded. I think it's actually a selling point as most of the stock components have only 2,000 miles of use (whole exhaust setup, suspension, wheels) and the dealer just installed a brand new engine in the car. So, whoever buys this car is getting the deal of a lifetime.

 

right, the new engine, i forgot about that...

did you have a camber kit when you had a drop? if so, details on that? i am thinking of dropping my car on tein cs or tein ss, but need to go it right, as i won't be going back to stock after that (not worth it to pay labor twice).

 

Don't pay labor even once. I'll install it for you for free. Don't waste $300 at ZCG. I didn't have a camber kit. I had my fenders rolled and ran -3.2* rear and -2.4* front camber. I got a good performance alignment with even toe, and the inner tire wear wasn't that bad. Besides, with the 450 miles you'll drive every month, it would take 1 year for your tires to go bad...

 

Vodka, I have always loved the look of your ride. Best of luck with the new one and be sure to post up some pics!!

 

That's true. I just hope you get as much extra out of it as you paid.

 

dude what happened to your original engine?? you were always NA right?

 

i wanna see pics of the M3

 

Yeah, always NA. About a month after completing my part-out, my piston blew through the block while cruising along the freeway. Upon further inspection, it was an oil consumption problem.

Since the dealer knew about my cars past, they immediately blamed it on mods and "lack of maintenance." Despite my having receipts and invoices for all oil changes being completed in 3,000 mile intervals. I took up the issue with Infiniti Corporate, and after some constant pressure from me, they approved the new long block to be swapped in. T

he dealership to which I took the car for these repairs was not helpful at all to begin with (and I think the reason why Infiniti Corporate did not immediately approve the repairs). BUT, they made right and did a great job, with the block, so I will not be posting more about the experience or slandering their name.

 

Thanks for the info Vodka! Glad your clean - debadged trunk went to someone else to enjoy...

 

Today is your lucky day my friend (and mine ) Leaving work a bit early today to put my rims w/tires on tonight! Wifey is picking them up as I type this.

 

Want me to call in a bomb threat to your work so you can leave even earlier?

I've got a birthday dinner to go to this evening, I can just picture myself on my Blackberry refreshing G35driver constantly in anticipation of your pics!

 

about time bro. I think I've been more anxious than you waiting for these puppies to go on the car. Email me some nice pics.

 

In the before pics...Where did you get that lip spoiler on the trunk? That looks really nice!!!

 

^^ My trunk lid spoiler is an OEM M3 piece. Just call your local BMW dealerships parts department.
