Hi to all and would like to thank everyone here at 318ti.org for all your help in diagnosing my problem with my 1998 318ti. My bimmer was overheating I figured I had a head gasket and warped head problem and with all your posts and suggestions on here I was able to do it my self and got my car running. Great forum by the way and glad to have you guys around. I will be posting pictures later on my head gasket replacement so it will help others if they need to do the same.

Good idea to have it- also check eBay (and on here) to see if that and/or the Peake tool (same thing) are available for you... | | | | | 09-10-2010, 10:25 PM | #638 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2009 Location: VIRGINIA Posts: 324 |

Installed projectors with angel eyes today, and it LOOKS AWESOME! and also last Thursday I got some forgeline rs 17x8 rims and put those on there 'stead of the 16x6?7? steelies I was running with. Next up will be to install the m3 brakes in the front... looking for advice on that wondering if its direct bolt on with just the caliper/pads or I gotta do the whole rotor and all, and if I need to upgrade the brake lines etc... will do more research tomorrow after work, also gotta check if the rotor/hub was damaged in the m3 crash if i can use them lest I need them, maybe I can just use that. we'll see :-D. slowly but surely my project is coming together the way I want it to. | | | | | |
