Lol. I'm getting them to set my camber closer to stock for dailying. And camber the bitch out for shows and get togethers. Can't be going through tires. Haha.

[wasnt m3]

As long as the toe is correct, you shouldn't be eating tires that bad. I've put over 50k miles on my touring since lowering it and have never had any issue with uneven rear tire wear.

[Brian.]

I'm at about 10* of camber, and I put some serious miles on my E28, and haven't gone through a set of tires yet.

[nick.e46.330i.]

Alright. Ill take it to get aligned then too in spring. Does anyone know of a place that has an in ground alignment rack besides for in Plymouth?

[Brian.]

Madison has a quite a few. Yet I'm still being told I'm too low to enter them?!?!?! But yeah. Madison has a quite a few flat racks.

[nick.e46.330i.]

Alright. I was kinda hoping for someplace closer. Haha.

Milwaukee has plenty of places.

Eh. I think Plymouth will still be closer. Haha.

[nick.e46.330i.]

Well. It's been awhile. I started a new project. I got a 1988 jetta coupe. I'm in the process of putting a vr6 in it. I'm hoping to have it done in time for Scooters and having the e46 and the coupe there.

[B C]

One of my first cars was a 1988 Jetta coupe, Stratos Blue.

[nick.e46.330i.]

Nice. The one I have is alpine white. It's a little rusty. A little more than I would like to see. But oh well. Haha. It's gonna get a plastidip paint job for this summer. Hopefully over next winter I can fix the rust and get a respray

[nick.e46.330i.]

How hard is it to replace the button on the trunk that opens it on an e46? Mine decided to stop working the other day.

[wasnt m3]

Easy. Just 2 screws under the trim panel that holds the switch and plate lights and you should have access.

[nick.e46.330i.]

Alright. Sweet. That's what I figured. Just wanted to make sure.

[nick.e46.330i.]

both my cars right before automotion. this was the first drive that the coupe seen after it was built. 

[nick.e46.330i.]

It has been a while.  This winter i am putting on BimmerBrakes gen3 headers, UUC poly motor and tranny mounts, and an Active Autowerke tune. i put on the UUC M5 clutch kit on it this past fall. And I've sold my VW and bought an '88 325i convertible.

[jc43089]

Sounds like some good stuff, I have the uuc flywheel/m5 clutch setup, very happy so far, probably has about 30k on it.  Did you get the aluminum flywheel too?  Pics of the vert please!

[nick.e46.330i.]

Yup. I got the aluminum flywheel. I also put in a twm pedalbox when I did the clutch. And I'll get pictures of the vert next weekend it is at my shop. And I don't think I'm going there during the week this week.

[nick.e46.330i.]

this is the e46 at dubs in the valley this past year

this is the e30 i just picked up
