        Bought a tune from sssquid and learned a lot about DMEs. He's very helpful and his price was $175 vs TRM @$250

                          Driveshaft. Flex disc and csb all ordered.

                          Still need to wire up the fan relay, bleed new slave cyl. Finish bleeding coolant system.

                          Then done (lol)

                              http://catuned.com/mishimoto-bmw-e30e36-performance-aluminum-radiator

                              I got mine from catuned when they were on sale for $215

                              Otherwise blunt tech has them as well(might be faster shipping)

                              Regular they are $255

                              Might be able to find them for even cheaper on the interwebs

                                Nice I thought mine was going to be that size.

                                I guess Ill just wait and see if it can handle the heat.

                                  Finished up the fan wiring last night.

                                  Toggle switch with red LED when fan is on

                                  8816495712a051f91fb70dc706a273a0.jpg

                                  Rats nest with 2, 20amp fuses (switch is a 25amp) I popped one of these on accident while testing the fan, so I'm glad I have them.

                                  949a50d40bf1573f91c6518fc8c9da3b.jpg

                                  Wires routed with some adhesive clips. Relay kinda tucked in the fender so it is easy to get to.

                                  f083d24a38a3c8aac5ad5f6d5b0e8c69.jpg

                                  Made some labels because I wanted to use all black 14g wire so it didn't look like streamers under the hood

                                  2c50428951d9cca173769e328d2aeaa9.jpg

                                  Aaaaaaaand. Mounted. Had to redo the two leads on the fan, I messed up power/ground. So my pusher acted as a puller--all good now!

                                  9b8e125cd297187127fa01323546def6.jpg

                                  Also ordered some new carpet for this thing last night. I got sick of looking at shitty floors.

                                  Any one have any experience with dyeing the parcel shelf?? I want mine to be black. Is it worth the hassle? Or just easier to find a black one?

                                      They are like regular label maker cartridges. But it prints it on shrink tube. They worked pretty well

                                        Went out an bought some duplicolor vinyl and carpet paint I'm an aerosol can. Worked awesome and was easy to use. I now have a black parcel shelf.

                                        Valence is also mounted-ish.

                                        Driveline stuff gets here today (Thursday). the car might move under its own power by the weekend...

                                          Only thing left is bleed slave. Split driveshaft, install CSB. Install driveshaft. Do burnouts
