1988 BMW 3 Series 325i review from Australia and New Zealand

Fuses like to keep blowing on different things.

Air con not working.

Fog lights stopped working.

Clutch is starting to go on me.

Has a couple of oil leaks.

No big deal for a car with over 300 thousand and no rebuild on the motor or gear box.

This car looks great after you add a few mods to it to kind of bring it back to the future like custom tail and side lights and starts to look really mean once its lowered (use superlow king springs) with this and a set of 18" rims with 215/35/18 tyres (20mm spacers are required) it handles like no other average car like a ford, commodore, mitsubishi can keep up with me through a road with a lot of bends.

I found the motor stock standard aint that fast, but with a few light cheap mods that all changes I have added a new hi flow muffler with 3" inlet 6.5" barrel and 4.5" tip gives the car lots more tourqe and the note she puts out is very nice people are always asking if I have a bigger 6 or even an 8 cylinder under their.

Next good performance booster is a K&N pod filter with a heat shield (heat shield very important to the performance) and when this thing sucks it sounds ausom and changing gears makes the car sound like its turbo ed with a blow off valve great.

First and second gear aint that fast in the car, but once you hit into 3rd at high revs then watch out (this is the gear that lets you pull away from some fool in his ford or commodore)
