          I think you know what would happen, you would crack just like your cylinder head.

            Commuting in it again.

            Im pretty happy with the acceleration. Its faster than any NA E36 M I have been in but thats not saying a lot in this era of hoverboards and fidget spinners. its easy to drive/forgiving off the line when you are wearing dress shoes or are clumsy with the clutch.

            These cars look tiny. Doesnt help that im a ‘squatch 😁

                      Could it be...commuting with the car, happy with the car? I believe I hear angels singing.

                        More-so trusting the the car, happy with the car.

                        I wont be totally happy until the exhaust is tucked better. A new welder was ready to work on this 2 saturdays ago, but me and my car weren't ready since I had it in pieces replacing the starter and alternator.
                        Now that im ready, the welder isn't.

                        Im willing to try MIdas or some other muffler shop at this point. it is a bit frustrating in the meantime trying to get this resolved.

                                Rock solid coolant temperatures in the stop and go on the commute home, as I expected. I do find the urethane engine mounts to be quite a bit more harsh than the UHMW mounts I had on the M20.  The next time I tinker with it im going to re-set my engine and trans and see if its just not sitting exactly where it would like to. 

                                The brakes are the next item I need to address and the next chunk of change will be going there

                                      Still not sure why your signature is so much smaller....

                                        I have smoked side markers now but I am still looking for good smoked late model turn signal lenses. Looks like the Kopi/MHW ones on abrahamsmotorsport are going to be the way to go.

                                        Until I get a few more cosmetic upgrades to balance it out, it will look a bit tacky and incomplete but one must begin somewhere.

                                        I have my spleen up for sale on ebay in hopes that I can use it as a partial trade for some MHW tails or something.

                                        ha! The last set i saw was $1,300, but one can dream.

                                          Some nice aerosol spray tint will help create a shine and remove the bold amber bumper lights until you get nice replacements. Mixing your own tint looks the best though and will give you less of a "blue" hue. I would hit your taillights with a thin layer too.

                                          My taillights have a thin layer of clear tinted with black and it makes a world of difference.
