Thanks guys, as for the e23, its growing on me, but i want to get back in the e28 game or even an e12, I had few of them, but this "unit" Q45 is nice change up, and ill keep calling it "unit" till i find the soul of car. . Anyways, I am happy that I found an information full website as I am a DIYer. Telling by the replies already I am going to like it here.

I'm gonna pretend you did not say that!

Welcome, don roma!

I have the same car in the base model - wish I had the heated seats in the t model.

The correct term is "Autobahn Machine" or "Asphalt Eater".

Get it out on the open road and see how 140mph feels. Or take it on a nice ride out to Banff. ... or both ...

You'll be calling it a "eunuch" if you do that to it.

Well I just got back from my first long drive in the car. I am surprised, such a beautiful car. No complaints with the drivetrain power, the brakes are solid, suspension is great, very comfortable, better than my 735i. As for the fart can and underglows, that would not cross my mind on an acid trip. I would like to upgrade the wheels and tires as I have nice winter rubber on there for now. I am leaning towards newer G35 18" wheels, not sure about the tires. What tires would you suggest and would fit with G35 wheels? Also if I upgrade to 300zx brakes would the stock bbs still fit?

[qship96]

300zx brakes are not an upgrade from the Q standard brakes, time and money better spent on maintaining current setup and investing in better tires or lighter wheels if you are changing them.

And I'd suggest staying with 17" maximum, to preserve some tire sidewall and therefore, ride quality.
