Perth S/Charged e93

XIX · 07-03-2017, 12:00 AM

Hi Guys

I am looking at getting back into an M after a lengthy absence and am currently looking at a supercharged (Harrop) e93 that gets around Dianella.

This car

Just wondering if anyone else knows the car, or the guys that install these ( Rocco in burswood ?).

I do have friends who know the owner of the car so I am fairly confident in it, but thought I would pose the question here anyway.

Thanks lads

Well get around Dianella too and cant say I have seen the car nor do I know the driver.

Displaying the GPS location of the vehicle on the advert is one way to get rid of it.

I used to see this car all the time, used to be driven by one of the mums at my kids school, haven't seen it for a year or so though.

Am always keeping an eye on E92/93 M3's on carsales and the price on this one has dropped significantly since it was first advertised.

Yeh they have a few cars, It was supercharged last year so maybe thats when the wife lost driving rights

Do you remember when it first went on line ? Its still priced a bit too high, but I am thinking of getting a ppi done and seeing if we can meet on a price.

From memory it's been on there a good month or so at least.

Excellent news mate, congrats.

Thanks ! Hopefully I can make it to the next catchup.

In other news, the old owner took me downstairs at autoclassic to show me his potential (in negotiations) new car. An M4 GTS !!!!!!!!!

My God what a piece of art.

Thanks mate, hopefully can get the exhaust on soon as well and balance against the jet thats hiding under the bonnet!

Rajvosa · 07-13-2017, 09:38 AM

Can't go wrong with e92 comp pack wheels. Love them!

Edit: yes I wrote in wrong thread. This is meant to be for your looking for wheels thread lol

XIX · 07-13-2017, 09:44 AM

Hahah , its too late bro, go to bed.

Im trying to figure out where to get the bearings from!

Rajvosa · 07-13-2017, 09:57 PM

have you decided what bearings you going with?

XIX · 07-13-2017, 09:59 PM

I'm thinking VAC with ARP bolts based on most advice. I started off thinking BE but kinda swinging the other way now ...

thoughts?

Can't give you any advice as I never really researched it. I've seen BE mentioned fair bit on forums though.
what I would be doing though right away is getting oil analysis done to keep an eye on the levels. So you can see if the wear has started etc.

Its a 2011 so you can't tell anything from the oil analysis unfortunately.
