Not TUB. Thank god.
Showers ftw

TU = totally useless.
just set the cams to 'hot' and leave them alone BMW, this isn't risotto.

A lot of my exhaust was just tacked up so I finished as much as I could before running out of argon yesterday. Started the wiring and just picked up some more argon to hopefully finish the full exhaust this weekend.
Bad news is I seem to have a rear main seal leak or a transmission seal leak.
-
Mine was leak free for about 2 weeks. Came out to the garage and I saw a tiny drop under the car.
Instant sadness
-
Pulled an all nighter Friday and got the motor harness all hooked up and some more work on the exhaust.
I have most of the wires identified and know where they need to go and think I have the EWS figured out as well.
Probably 10 hours from firing, but still have a lot of driveability stuff to do (finish brakes, clutch line, cooling, etc)
-
First starts make it all worth it man. Just please do it open headers at least once
-
Since I picked up those 17s, I figured I would post up the ACs on Craigslist. Unfortunately someone bit and they are gone...
Still trying to figure this damn wiring out. I may bite the bullet and pick up a tuned DME that doesn't require EWS, but I would need a new engine harness and knock sensors.
I'm justify it because of the additional HP.Â

Noooooooo if I would've known I would've bought them in a heartbeat

PM'd you. It happened really fast. I'll probably regret it sooner than later.
Anyway... ECU, engine harness, and knock sensors ordered. Should all be here by Wednesday. I am going to finish the exhaust, plumb the brakes and clutch, etc. Basically get it ready for the road so I can take it out next Saturday/Sunday. Hell, I haven't even registered it yet.

I text earl 2 days ago saying I would buy those wheels as well when they popped up for sale. I am really disappointed now!
-
Come on guys, I couldn't bear to see them on another car. I almost just scrapped them.
In all seriousness though, I put them on CList for the hell of it for a price I was very happy with. I got damn close to asking and the buyer was happy as well. I don't like using the forums as a way to make money flipping parts.

I always hated the way 17s looked, but I later found out that it was because people put little baby tires on them. I went to 17s, because I bought those rims and tired off Dr. Leadfoot with spacers for $350 I believe it was. Couldn't pass that up. Plus I think they fill in the wheel wells very nicely. (I haven't installed my Koni/H&R race setup yet.
Also, motor tear down in preparation for the new DME/Knock Sensors.
-
do the valley pan gasket while you have that open.
and do the two gaskets on the coolant crossover pipe on the back of the heads.
both would require this same level of teardown if they start leaking in the future.
also,
do a barrel roll.
