In a pickle. One of my cats is going on my stock US-spec E46 M3 and thus the inevitable "upgrade" to Euro-spec ensues. Issue I am having; while I got a Status Gruppe Section 1 with high-flow cats, I am unable to get the BMW stock Euro-spec headers until December (backorder everywhere). Ebay has...

I have a 01 325i with the sport suspension package and hate how it has 4x4 wheel gap in the front end. I bought a full set of 1.5" drop lowering springs for it but I already like how the rear end sits on stock springs/shocks and don't want it to tuck tire in the back. Can I just run the lowering...

Hi guys. So yesterday i went to my local tuning place and asked to take some dyno pulls. The car is completely stock, and has 130k miles on the clock and almost 20 years (dic 99') After a first failed round, the second one gave me this graph at the wheels: 147 HP and 152 ft.lbs. What do...

Hey everyone, after a few years of casually looking for a manual 3 series coupe, I found a pretty well taken care of example. Dealer serviced for most of its life but at nearly 180k mi., It is definitely in need of some work, front control arms, tires, alignment, stock struts, shocks and...

I just became an active member of this great community and had decided to join the bandwagon on sharing a picture of my E46. I love it, keep up the good work guys! :thumbsup:

an ebay find! tossed in a lowball bid, didn't expect it to hold up - but it did, and this nicely maintained 3.0 liter AWD E46 is ooooooofficially MINE! yes, it has a slushbox. that said, i am incredibly impressed with its responsiveness, shifts are smooth and the sport mode is eager, keeps the...

So I searched for this on the forums too, but everyone seems split.. I want to get tires that I can get rotated. I am going to buy 18 x 8.5 (40 offset) rims. What would be the best looking tires for a set up in which I can get the tires rotated? I also don't want any tire rubbing on a stock...

hello, I have aftermarket headers with a Magnaflow full exhaust. I liked it at first but I would like my car to be a bit more quiet now... Since I still have my stock exhaust (just the last section) I was thinking of only replacing the magnaflow exhaust by the stock exhaust hoping it will quiet...

Hi all – I am a new here, need some advice. I have always been a coupe guy but just could not pass up this convertible because of the condition (yep, that odometer reads 14,200 miles!). First step for me is I need some better tunes. Is the DICE the only game for ipod interface, and is it...

Finally got to take my new e46 on a proper photoshoot today, thought I'd show a few of the better shots! (Sadly I don't get to do car photography jobs very often, but I love 'em) (I love the way this one came out) Ticked at myself for cutting off that light :facepalm: Even...

Yesterday I finally got the car I've been hoping to find for at least four years now: an e46 that's in good shape and a good value. I'm only the second owner, and while it has more miles than i was hoping it would (157,000), it drives like a dream! I haven't had a chance to clean it up and take...

I recently wired an aftermarket stereo I just bought into my 99' 328i (without the wiring harness). The radio turned on but there is no sound coming out of the speakers at all which is why I bought the new radio in the first place. Since this isn't working either I'm starting to think it's the...

I have a few parts available in Calgary that I need gone since I sold the car long ago. I have: Chrome E46 Grill Set - OEM Tail lights - OEM Serial Diagnostic Cable Amber corners - OEM Clear corners - DEPO (one side is ok, one side has fog) I'll accept any reasonable offer on any parts listed...
