The timing was set back to 15 degrees and the popping remains. I am going to push for him to remove the injectors and inspect all of them and if needed I will get a all new o-rings and possibly injectors oh God that amount of $$$$$ coming out my bank oh well its the first real problem its given me in three years something had to happen one day its just a matter of part replacing and time until its fixed.

Eric about the popping, there is a popping noise but no idle fluctuation just a sound wouldn't that make it different from a misfire, misfire usually causes bad idle. It idles real well.

The idle does not have to fluctuate for a misfire. Its very subtle on the rpm needle.

Yup Joe, I'll be there one more semester I'm writing my MS thesis right now. I should have taken the non-thesis version, I didnt know that I could do the masters with credits from research. I'm thinking 'lots of pictures and graphs'

I'll only be at SB on Tu/Thurs evenings, let me know if you wanna hangout (ie. burnouts and donnuts in teachers parking lot).

Hey diego, just thought of something. Maybe you have some cylinder hot spots caused by carbon deposits. Try getting a can of seafoam or even just carb cleaner. Remove the top vacuum hose thats on the top of the TB, if you use the sea foam let the engines vacuum draw it in SLOWLY, if you use carb cleaner follow the directions and I'd say use the whole can (get the smaller can).

if you cant get that hunk of junk fixed ill buy it for 100 bucks. i seem to have a tendancy to do that. j/k. i have a set of injectors off my parts car if you wanted to send them out to be rebiult/calibrated to whatever output it has to be. my friend sent his to some place in florida for 140 i think.

The wing wasn't that bad with the trunk lid shaved. However, finding a better wing (or maybe like a lip spoiler or something) would be good.

Props on the car though.

N34JZ is sensitive about his wing lol.

Mr.Gone I was at my friend John's house and forgot he was logged on and posted under his name.

Juan very funny lol but it will be fixed its just a matter of time.

I might consider a compression test but last time I did one it was fine.

davebond007

So, have you bought an E36 M3 yet? That'd be a car that I'd want to drive if I couldn't drive my Maxima.

N34JZ

iTrader: (1)

not really its always been my car my taste my style but I dont like it when people dont understand that I can do whatever I want not what ever they want, but yeah the wing is off to allow for bigger better things ( and I dont mean a bigger wing lol)

D-sta

Ha ha i was thinking salad bar on the back of your car. Was just kidding about the sensitivity . Exactly do what you want with your car thats why its your car.

1995 E36 M3 hopefully by this summer. I'm never selling my maxima after its fixed it will still remain with me no matter what and the M3 will be a weekend thing but it will start getting mods from me. What makes me want to buy a M3 so badly my friend has a turbocharged here's a pic and I guess when you guys see that, its like, nuff said ....

hows he doin (sorry forgot his name lol) i see hes got new rims, nice. ive always liked the e36 body style a little better then the 46

thats exactly how i feel, 3rd gen is with me for life but i still want my beast

Stan is doing fine. Joe exactly I always want that car and especially when I drive it, the craving gets worse lol.

davebond007

Wow. My friend's dad just bought a 95 e36 m3 a few months ago. It's cosmos black (which is kinda dark blue) and has 44k on it. It's all stock (vader seats rock), except for a Comforti Intake & ECU. Probably has 270 or so at the crank.

Your friend has a very nice M3. His car actually looks a lot like European Car's Project M3, btw.

A turbo'd M3 is on my list of "wants" as well. The reality behind that is unforseeable, unfortunately. However, I may consider an E36 as my next car (may not be an M3 though.. , but an S50 will still fit in the car ).

D-sta

iTrader: (6)

Actually the car is 1995 325is with an active autowerkes turbo kit stage 1.5. 3.0 motor coming its way. Its practically a M3 since it went from auto to manual also and the ZF BMW tranny from the M3 was put in also .

davebond007

It's still an M50? Wow. What cams is he using? And what diff?

D-sta

iTrader: (6)

Yea still an M50 but he's getting the S50 motor soon and he has a 3.23 diff.
