New to the board, just picked up a 90 535i 5 speed!
Hey what's up everyone? I am new to the board and I am going to be picking up a 1990 535i 5 speed on the 24th. I am in Wichita and the car is in Ft. Lauderdale so it should be a fun adventure back! I am already looking for my first mod and want some suggestions. The car already has some nice mods(wheels, front and rear M5 swaybars, strut tower brace, euro clears, front lip spoiler and rear spoiler), etc.. What are your suggestion for my first virgin mod?? Can't wait to be an active participant of the board!

Nice looking car, welcome. The EAT chips are getting good reviews from other m30 owners. Also, you did good getting a 5 speed.

the only way that's happening is if i'm doing 140 into a tree and then you have to pray the tranny will fly far enough to land on your front lawnNice car. Please crash it. I want your transmission.
