My name is Earl, and I have a Stainless Steel bolt fetish =)

I labelled the harness and removed a few more things Saturday, since no one could come help me yank it out. Also got a really crappy picture of my interior. I made it black and white because the picture made the wood look very bright, when it is a pretty deep cherry color.

What motor is going in there?

Thank you=)
I stumbled upon this picture the other day. Someone took it while I was attending Eurowerks 6. This was the day after I sprayed on the plastidip. I wish I would have just cut bump stop then and been as low as I currently was. I also stumbled upon another that I will upload afterwhile.

Brian said:
They didn't stretch, as in they didn't wanna stretch, or the tires were too wide? If they didn't wanna stretch due to the sidewall being stiff, run the tires on really low air pressure for awhile, it'll soften the sidewalls up nicely
The tires run a size wide=\ some 195/40's would have been better

Went to take another stab at removing the motor and no dice. I tried removing the harness from the engine. There is a box(located on the intake manifold) that sends the wires to sensors all over the motor. I removed about half of the plugs to it, and couldn't reach the others. Decided to try and remove the harness from the car side. I then noticed that the harness goes down under the fusebox. I don't think there is a quick disconnect there...so now jm stuck and can't find any writeups for harness removal. I just need to get that done, unbolt the trans crossbrace, and then pull it out. Absolutely everything else is out. If anyone wants to help me pull it next Saturday I would be very happy. Since I am always there alone, it makes it too easy for me to get mad and rage quit. I need to get this all done.

On my E30 I disconnected the ECU and pushed the harness through the firewall. Disconnected the fuel lines, engine mounts, round connector by the fuse box, oil cooler, ground to the oil pan, coolant hoses, o2 sensor wire, and a handful of other small items. I didnt need to touch the intake manifold, anything under it. I cant speak for the time removing the engine since I was doing other things, but from the time the engine was seated on its mounts upon re-installation. It was less than an hour before everything was secured, connected, and ready to run.
It was very painless. Hope you get it figured out
