                You have a 4.10 with all that power now?  I thought it was was too aggressive with the stock m20...  I believe Brian has a couple 3.25 difs that he is looking to get rid of with the shark car.

                  I realized today that I will be needing a new water pump/ fan clutch in the near future. The temps creep up at idle.

                    I found out i needed to replace my clutch fan the hard way when i didnt notice i had a softball sized hole through my radiator. And no fan blades left on my fan. :)

                        I have this waiting for me when I get home. Left two weeks ago and literally pushed the axles in and shut the door haha. Started as just replacing a torn cv boot, things escalated quickly: rebuild front axles, steering rack, poly motor mounts, control arms w/m3 offset bushings, strut mounts, upgraded front drive shaft, new oil pan gasket, diffs tranny and transfer case flush, oil change, and just an all around cleaning. Almost ready for dd status.

                          Have a new upper rad hose and coolant to install tomorrow finally after three weeks being down. Here is hoping thats the only place the coolant was leaking from.

                              Installed coolant hose and added coolant still leaking badly I think it may be thermostat housing? All iknow is it isnt overheating

                                          Installed the LSD in the 1er today. Wow what a difference. Not much else to say. Probably the best mod I could have done given the power the car is currently making.
