KyleKruse Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I moved up here from Tennessee and went to Illinois and picked up a 99 bmw 528i. Needed a rear main, Torque converter, water pump, heater core, and headlights rewired but I got a good deal! Got beautiful angle eyes and taillights, nnr performance coil overs, new fuel pump, radiator, and a lot more going for it. Finishing up heater core . Can't wait to be Krusin the streets this week.what you guys think? Watch out Green Bay! The black one is my uncles. 99 bmw with 3.0 swap. By passed emissions bull. Very quick car!

straight6pwr Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 528 auto? if that gave you the bug wait till you get a fast BMW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleKruse Posted February 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 Well, after hours of work and many, many new parts she seems to have a blown headgasket. I should have looked the motor over better. Head gasket job and the car will be doing good. Suspension, tranny, interior, and more work already complete so this should be it. My uncle has him a 528i he is building a 3.0 for, he also has a 528i with a 3.0 swap, Header, bypassed emissions, and reprogrammed to think it's a European car. It's pretty quick but our right, wait till I get in a fast one! Haha yes I'm located between Appleton and Green Bay in Greenleaf . Work is what brought me up here mostly. There just don't seem to be as much opp. In Tennessee. Also, yes, I'm looking for a decal to go all the way across the top of the back glass that reads "Black Aucshwitz" what kind of price would I be looking at?

B C Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 "Reprogrammed to think its a European car" This makes no sense and is along the same lines as wannabe cops buying decommissioned crown victorias and claiming "lol they forgot to remove the cop chip!!1!1" Please enlighten me on the differences between the tune on an American spec car and a Euro spec car. The "black auschwitz" decal probably wont sit well with the decently large polish and jewish population in the state. You may want to go with something less edgy such as "SHARIA LAW FTMFW!!!"

KyleKruse Posted February 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 I guess your right that was a bad way to put it but a big spec difference is emissions. Anyway it bypasses the o2 and cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleKruse Posted February 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 With the program you can really get into the tuning of these bmws. It's pretty interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleKruse Posted February 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 Lets just say " the cats and after cat o2s are not bypassed, the smog pump is not bypassed, and it's not reprogrammed to euro2 tune " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassboy3313 Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 Also, yes, I'm looking for a decal to go all the way across the top of the back glass that reads "Black Aucshwitz" what kind of price would I be looking at? Yeah, no sorry. Not gonna lie, that decal idea is extremely dumb. I won't be the one responsible for offending people like that. Good luck with the project.
