Thats only after a clean, not even a polish/wax!

Gave my car a quick clean today, turned out bloody good. Only a little fading on top of the rear wing, other than that the paint is great.

A manual conversion is VERY high on the list once im done moving.
Looks like ill be paying around 1-1.3K for a conversion kit, and hopefully i can find somewhere i can do the work myself (if not my own garage). Anyone know if the 318is manual setup (gearbox, clutch, lines, driveshaft etc) is EXACTLY bolt in for an M52 323i?
Also, ive heard there is issues with the ECU on some cars when converting to manual? Something to do with the later OBD2?

Cheers for the heads up, have asked.
Theres a couple of 97s on there, but people seem to be struggling with the whole "wtf is a transmission control unti?" thing.

keep it for the lawnmower...

mmmm, thats a very tasty looking car.
any pics of the interior?

ive used the subaru UEC on my previous subbies, and on some it makes a hell of a difference. My last wrx i did it to, ended up returning better economy and came on boost quicker.

TO suit jatco transmission in E36.
prefer from 320i or 323i, cars build date MUST be newer than 1/97.
Transmission control unit, lives near ECU.
In chch can pick up or pay postage, let me know what you want for it.

Welcome! Low k's as well, a bonus!
A little trick to fix the Jatco Jerk... I have a '96 323i (01-96 build) coupe as well, and I fixed a similar "mis-performance" by throwing the original TCU away and installing one out of a (build date 04-97) '97 320i. This has the later EPROM that was devised post October '96, and once the transmission was reset, have had no issues since! The later TCU is much better than the earlier - but if your car is post Oct '96 build date it should already have it..........
Thanks for the advice.
How can I tell when my car was made?
Is there a way to tella newer tcu from old one?
Does it have to be a tcu from a Jdm car?
Oh an yea sadly the car is covered in dust and dirt. All the roads around where I live are torn up, so hard to keep clean

Itll get a damn good clean, and a rear debadge eventually....
Installed my headunit today, woot.

Hi everyone
Im Kelvin, from Christchurch. Just purchased my 30th car, which is my first BMW.
Purchased it from a fellow member, and love it. the build quality and design completely blow standard jap cars away.
Anyway its a 1996 323i Motorsport coupe in Hellrot. (unfortunately) its an Auto, but should be great for my drive from CHCH to wellington when i move next month.
Its genuine motorsport, with full kit, side strips, interior and apparently shocks.
Needs a clean, but here is some pics of it from after i got it.
And i love this little bit of detail... Motorsport coloured stitching.

damn shame its not manual... would be real keen then
