<![CDATA[custom coilovers = lol]]>My car looked funny with the new wheels and all that wheel gap. So I fabbed up these bitchin coilovers that me scrape my ass all over town. Aka cut a half a coil too much. These are the results. Still looks tits in my opinion.20140402172957zpsk0sqynkh.jpg

For $400 I can drive my car again. Ill take it. If I swap the car for a 24 valve or anything other than stock motor I would rather do something a lot cooler than an m50. My theory is...it would suck really bad to swap my car for performance gains and still get shit on by an STI or some stupid shit of the sort lol

Running better than ever too. Thanks to Snap lending me that clutch tool :) byno means would I call myself a mechanic but I do know my way around an m42 now... that's for sure. Besides the physical aspect of using the picker to pull the motor and then placing the new one back in, I did all that shit by myself. Working on it for two solid nights and some random bits here and there in between. Not bad for a rookie. And by the way, if anyone ever wants to swap an e36 m42 into an e30 you have to swap way more shit than the internet says you do lol

This doesn't seem normal mr Menard I think it's time for u to order a vanos rebuild kit and I'm thinking about doing mine when I service my cooling system on the e46.

The oil drains out of the lifters after sitting, it's not the vanos.  It can sit for a couple weeks with no problem, it's just when it sits for several months over winter.  The vq30 in our Maxima rattles for a couple seconds if you leave it for a week...

I'm just not sure what's causing that rattling. It sounds like the chain. Maybe the one lifter that failed causing the knock has a blocked oil passage leading to it partially starving that lifter of oil until it fails. I'm not positive though I'm just going to run it and see what happens. If it does it again then I know there is a crazy issue.

How did the sprockets look? Have you run the engine for a while? When i fire up my m50 after storage it rattles badly and you need to hold the rpms around 3k for a minute or two

I would swap a 24 valve in it in a heartbeat but I don't have the funds to do so right now. I would even consider putting and I'm 20 minutes but also don't really have the cash and all the parts to do it

Sorry to hear that. I don't imagine that being fun, but at least it will go faster this time around with all the hardware loosened up and knowing how to get to it all.

I know you mentioned wanting to keep the engine stock but there have been quite a few 6 cylinder engines for sale in the area recently.

AKA 24v swap
