Ammmm....hello i suppose :o

Bought the E36 off Darragh lastnight apparently with over heating issues... So myself and Marty (driftma) made the trip to athboy with martys trusty ol golf and transporter and haggled with darraghs mother, got a whole 5quid off :D

Darragh reckoned it was over heating, only thing i can see wrong is the viscous fan is fucked so maybe twas gettin hot tickin over or something :confused: Has behaved itself all day without usin a drop of water so hopefully it'll stay that way so the weezy 1.6 will get me to the other side of xmas :)

Plans for the car are to use it as a daily drifter, basically reshelling my old E36 drift car into this and trash the arse off it on the road and track days etc.. Gonna stick with a BMW engine though, smallest that will be going in is a 24v 2.5 or 2.8 or M3 engine money permitting!!

Gonna hopefully get the car nct'd this week and once thats outta the way my poly bushed rear end complete with welded 4.4 diff will be going in.. Along with my coilovers, widened front track and extra lock etc.. Inside will be staying standard with full interior kept, only additions will be my omp bucket seat and steering wheel :)

This is gonna be my daily so first things to be done today was to sort out the creature comforts like cd player etc...Also sort the electric windows.. I hope you were not responsible for the wiring "modifications" to the windows Dar :p Cos it was a fire waiting to happen and whoever done it should be shot with a ball of their own shit! Hate dodgy wiring! :mad:

Thanks to driftma for sorting the wiring too :D xx :D

I will post up pics as soon as theres anything worth taking pics of!!
