Dinan325ic's 1994 BMW 3-Series

MY DINAN 3!!!

This is my baby. I treat her kindly, she treats me kindly. We have a very mutual relationship. My father gave her to me for my 19th birthday (10/02). I will never forget that day.

Since then, I have been slowly modifying it here and there and this is her current state. Right now I am in the process of puting the head back together since I had stronger retainers and other maintenance stuff replaced; therefore pictures of my current set-up are limited.

Enjoy

How do you like Active Autowerke's turbo kit? I heard mixed reviews about their stuff for the E36. Is it pretty reliable? Keep up the great work! Mike
