    Default Help me find some performance parts for this car

    Hello,

    I am looking to purchase some parts for my 94 530i. It is bone stock right now except for the smileys, and a cheezy cone filter that sounds great but probably cost me a couple of horses. I want to upgrade it cosmetically and performance wise. If any one knows a good place to find some parts for my M60B30, I would be greatful.

    Thanks,
    Michael Lee Zafra Uy

    Not too much, I do not plan on doing all of the upgrades at once but I probably could cough up about $1000 dollars a month from now until I finish. I just bought some 5 spoke 3 piece Dinan wheels. I am not really sure what they are called but the size is 17x9 all around. I just dropped my tranny last night due to a faulty release lever and was wondering what performance clutch would be the best? Any input would be appreciated.

    the type of clutch you get would be dependant on what engine modifications you plan on doing.

    like.... if you upgrade to a race spec cylinder head and toss in a supercharger, you would want a different clutch then if you were just gonna be mean to it.

    Well, I eventually plan on putting a supercharger in it probably by January so I would want to change the clutch while the tranny is out. But at the same time, I am not even sure if I want to supercharge this motor or just drop the newer 4.4 motor in here and then supercharge it.
