The Infinity won…

[artguy]

So my daughter’s ’93 Infiniti J30t needs the timing belt replaced. = $643

My 530i needs: new front struts, likely either control arms and/or thrust arms. I want to replace the fuel filters, spark plugs, re-flush the tranny, and get a front plate cover. The brakes just started squeaking and I think my auxiliary fan is non-operative. (#25 fuse blown twice) = $500-$700

I just sold my ’95 Plymouth Neon for $650…finally I have extra cash!

Yes you know it…the Infinity wins. It’s a good first car for her and I want it to last. Even with all the 530's issues, she still runs well and gets me where I need to go. God always seems to provide what I need…just not as much or when I would like to have it. :)

Holy $600 job for a timing belt.

[markus]

most likely cuz of the infinity name. my dad spent about $600 replacing the timing belt on his accord.

A V6 with a timing belt, that's messed up...

the aux fan may just need a resistor, probably 90% of the fuse blowing aux fans i encounter on e32/34s are bad resistors 64 12 1 388 069, Aux. Fan Resistor $43 list

drivin' dirty in j30's gettin' bent.

I've been doing a little research around here and I'm hoping it turns out that cheap. A/C seems to work fine. She doesn't overheat. The only reason I suspected anything was when I found the fuse blown.

Artguy, just saw you are in Grand Haven. I grew up there and we come over every summer. I just learned to Kitesurf over there recently. Beautiful place. Love the picture.

Yes I really like living here. We need a BMW club around here though...maybe a project for me and friend down the road. The shot is from North Shore beach...my favorite spot by the water to shoot. Hopefully I'll see you around one of these summers.

I thought that looked like North Shore. I lived in up in Ferrysburg. My dad was the police cheid of Ferrysburg and Spring Lake. Too bad I'll never have the E34 over there. Too much crap with the kids and all.
