i might be getting 1500$$ in about a week and i was wondering what i should do to my 3.0cl

so far i just have an aem cai clear corners and bumper lights.

thanks for the opinions

 

im sorry i forgot you can see my mods on my sig

oh also i can get mods for my 528i which i think its not possible but if you guys know about BMW mods let me know

thanks

 

youll notice the cl mods more, and theyll be cheaper...


get obx headers, and pullies?

put the rest in your pocket

 

that seems like a good idea how much would both of those cost me installed?

 

exhaust and a drop or wheels.

 

Do suspension. Springs, Shocks, Camber. Best mod I ever did for my CL, both asthetic and performance wise. Nothing really changes HP significantly minus nitrous and FI...But you can change the handling characteristics drastically.

 

you think i can do all of that and get some decent wheels for under 1500?

thanks

 

^^no
1500 might buy you some decent wheels

 

No. But do all that before wheels.

 

ok im really thinking about doing that but where can i get all of this stuff

 

oh and where can i get it installed because im not too good at that stuff LOL

 

SLAM that bad boy and get some wheels.. and i think before anything, you should read the "a must read for newbies" sticky. you'll get a lot of help outta there.

 

Tein Ss

Obx Headers

Aem Pullies

 

thanks alot guys i really appriciate all the help and yes i forgot about the newbie sticky ill look at that also

but if anyone on acl is seling any of this stuff please let me know

thanks a lot

 

does anyone know off hand if Obx for CLS will fit a 3.0? Cuz I got some for sale in black market. $225+shipping.

 

If you can do the drop yourself or find somebody to do it for cheap, sure.

You can find a good wheel and tire package for around $1000 or even less, springs are another $150-200 and shocks can be found for about $250-300. You just have to look.

 

Open an IRA. Actually, If I had that money I'd get Tein SS's and put the balance toward wheels and tires.

 

Actually keep it a stock sleeper. Do the Headers, pulleys, and nitrous, unless you could care less for the instant horsepower. But if you are in for looks and some performance, at least get an underdrive pulley and Teins SS. I have to agree with most other folks here. They all know what they're talking about, but heck now you have too many choices and too little money.

lol i know man i want so many things now but i cant haha i really want to keep it a sleeper but im not sure about nitrous yet but i really do want some new wheels

 

yes its the same headers, but you will have to get the downpipe bent per dustbusters thread on his obx install, any muffler shop should be able to help with that.

 

if you start shopping around and go to wheelmax.com and stuff, and if your really not into the whole bling bling chrome wheels..then i bet you could find a wheel/tire/spring/shocks combo for around $1500....

 

oh thanks a lot acura3.0cl that would be perfect

 

well thatd be a good deal then....

but id buy quality stuff.

the wheelmax whells are for the most part really heavy and the 18s are mostly still 800 or so with the crappy tires. i dont think that he would then have enough to do a quality drop with camber kits and install and have miney left for an alignment... maybe im thinking conservatively

imo, it sounds like you want wheels. go find a nice set and buy em. buy some decent all season tires that you like and call it a day. of course then you'll want a drop

 

i didnt know the decision would be that hard

but i guess ill look for some decent wheels or some performance parts and see what i really want to do

 

i was actually thinking about getting some m5 wheels for my 528i
