Moving forward I will be tossing in my extra 6 button OBC to fill up the hole in the dash. I also ordered a new temp sensor for the water temp gauge so it matches the range correctly. I have the bimmer world oil distribution block waiting to go in so I can get the oil psi and oil temp gauge functioning.
I have some spare black sport seats that I will most likely be putting in the car as well as black door cards/rear seat from the red car (already has corbeaus in it). I might try my hand on the carpet to make it black as well. The rear parcel shelf will get dyed black as well.
My my goal is to just keep this car a rock solid driver and something that I can just hop in and go for a drive. Also Brooke likes driving it too, still on the fence about it though 0_o
^im going to try and get this wrapped up before July 8th autocross at shawano
Sorry for the long winded posts but I felt this car needed to stay in Wibimmers & the story couldn’t end with it being sold to a random and disappearing into the world of bacon fenders and mouth breathers. I told snap a condition of the sale is that I will bring it to a mke autox event and he’s going to codrive it with me.

This is the only proof I have that it functioned in an autox. Bust out the potato glasses

Hopefully everyone doesn't die

Im so glad the exhaust has been fixed correctly and little improvements have been made already
I did my best with this car with the time, money, and skill I had and hopefully you get to enjoy it trouble-free and just drive. I miss it badly but as stated before, it just doesn’t fit well with my dad-bod life anymore. I need a boosted van or something

Black interior is so much better than tan (IMO). So today I pulled everything and replaced it with the black interior from the red car. Basically robbed Peter to pay Paul.
anyways, obviously as the pics show I didn’t do the carpet because I want to keep driving the car and pulling the carpet and dyeing it sounds like a longer-than-2-hour-affair so it stays for now. At least gave me a chance to vacuum the years of snaps Cheerios out and fix my droopy black door cards lol
Currently have the fx1 in as a driver seat stand in for the autox tomorrow
-
Whoa!
did you paint the speakers and dye the rear shelf or are those from the black car as well?
Black speaker covers were from red car and the shelf I dyed black a couple years ago. Now that you bring this up I also forgot to change out the front speaker covers

@snap I need to get down to mke so you can experience the fun
also, for the 1-2 shift issues I had during the first autox, I just shifted sooner and slower. Seemed to work fine, still annoyed that you can’t ramrod it home.
Had the car on re71r and tossed my corbeau in it. Night and day difference.
I am going to be rebleeding the brakes and removing some fluid in the process as the reservoir is weeping from the cap
-
Ordered rear wheel bearing/lock plate/snap ring. Left rear is starting to howl, noticed when I had my windows up on the way to work this morning.
Time to bust out the slide hammer and hate myself

Alright so I always assumed it was passenger rear because that wheel/hub has a tiny touch of play in it - but driving to work this morning and doing some zig zagging I believe it is the front passengers side howling
I will still be replacing the left rear anyways because the play bothers me.

@snapsby said he replaced 2/4, also I’m interested if my trouble shooting skills are shit. If I replace it and it still makes noise I’ll replace more lol
