          He photographed it on his engine, in a cool spot.

          Who does that?!

                          From the builder:

                          I started with a circa 2001 z3m unit as its the newest for cosmetics; z3m just happens to use a round 4 bolt instead of square.

                          Bmw uses both 4 bolt in round and square;  0 difference really; round is just newer like 1997+

                            I kind of figured it would be something like that.
                            Not a big deal at all. Just curious!
                            Edit: I find it amusing that cosmetics come into play when selecting a case. I get it, because I always try to make my diffs look good, but it is under the car lol. I get it, but still find it amusing.

                              Talks about cosmetics and then leaves the mounting surfaces rusty......just kidding. Looks really good=) Can't wait to see this thing actually hook

                                        Like Jordan said, we're at 10am and a 3rd car will be there at 11:15 so I imagine they could get you on at 12pm.  Apparently I have a wedding to go to that I told my wife we weren't going to attend since we don't know the people. I did not win that battle but I found out after I scheduled the appointment and told her I am not cancelling and if we're going to the stupid wedding then she can come with me to the dyno so I don't have to drive home to pick her up.

                                        I don't know if you can tell but I was a little angry about this lol.
