I wish my rear specs looked that good on my e30. My right rear trailing arm is pretty far out of spec. I am hoping a bushing replacement will do the trick. Also how fast do you guys go through rear tires? I am only able to get a 1.2 summer seasons out of my rears running Yokohama S- Drives.

i like rake, so my e30s were not very low in the back, so I never had strange wear in the back, even with old bushings.

I have never driven it long enough to go through a set of tires lol.
My 300 tread wear BFG's still look new and that is the set I had on there the longest. 
Sounds like you may have something going on back there. 

I'm a bit concerned that my subframe riser bushings will take out too much camber, so here's to hoping that doesn't happen!

[andyhundley]

My bushings are mush anyways so we'll see in spring if it resolves anything.

I have 500/600 miles, and an autox on my re71r. And a broken axle.

Before that I had some neo nittogens that wouldn't die for 4 years

Crank, but no start. No spark. No fuel. This e34 is the least reliable vehicle I have ever owned.

I blame Earl.

Crank position sensor or main relay

[HipMF]

Tried jumping the relay. Crank sensor already ordered.

It literally never left me stranded besides a dead battery lol

Earl should give you free rides until he fixes it.

I tried to get rid of my thumb today

Only 6 stitches, still annoying. Nail stopped the knife fortunately. 3 hours at the clinic because it wouldn't stop bleeding long enough to get it sewn up. This just means I don't have to work on the Miata for a week or so, silver linings I guess.

Anyone else feel spring approaching rather quickly? Applying sealant to my new wheels for my X3. Hopefully this helps to keep them looking nice. Can't wait to get these and the H&R springs on.

[straight6pwr]

those are amazing. what do you seal them with?

[wasnt m3]

I'm trying out Chemical Guys Jets Seal. It's supposed to work pretty well. Application was super easy with a foam applicator, only took about 15 minutes to do the whole set. I'll polish it off by hand in the morning. I'm sure I won't ever let them get too dirty but this style of wheel is a pain in the ass to clean so anything will help.

That is a good choice for the x3=)
