Sike. So this is my new project car. It needs some fixing up but overall is in great shape. 1992 525i 5 speed.
As you can see this is in a completely different direction than my trix.

Just so you know. For any motor parts, NAPA carries a lot of the Altrom brand parts for them. Theyre basically bmw parts with the bmw emblem scuffed off of the parts. You can see where the bmw circle normally goes on the parts.
Theyre fairly cheap too.
About 1/4 the price of going through BMW

That's a bit too optimistic. 20 year old car pushing 189hp when it was new vs a 2zz?

Haha, seriously, it seems like there's a new Matrix Reloaded thread every week
Next person should call their thread Matrix Revolutions.

But congrats on the purchase! Looks like you can have a lotta fun with this new bad boy!
