Hello all! I just recently bought a BMW Z3 2001 3.0L and wanted to install a radio that has carplay. I installed the Jenson 910X and it was perfect and drove for many days.....until i decided, if i can do that, i can also do the backup camera. I routed the camera lines and put the main power...

Hello! The head gasket has gone on my Z3 1999 4 cylinder engine. I'm anticipating that it will be cheaper to replace the engine and the other reason why I'm attracted to the option is whether or not I could replace it with a more powerful engine. Is this possible? Would it fit? This might...
