What a great turnout! It was great catching up with some of you and looking forward to the next meet to talk to the rest!
Milo, my son, got to see his Dad's car at an e30 picnic. I had to sit him down and talk to him afterwards to explain that an e30, not on jack stands, is a rare sight! I mean this when I say, Congrats to all of us who made it!

This. That douchey, high-horsed response is exactly what would drive me to never give someone my business.
It's not high horse at all. I actually offered to help as I knew more then likely what the issue was which I posted up before. I am stating a fact which you can think as you please. This was not ment to be a bad statement but a true statement that's is all. I know John Moliter personally so it wasn't an attack against him. No worries on getting more business, that's one part I don't have a problem in.
I feel like you're hovering over waiting for the "I told you so" moment. If you were to offer basic help here and there I would recommend people to your shop and might even take my car to you when I don't have time to do the work myself.
However, by responding they way you did and sounding like you're on your high horse, the way you do time and time again, I will never refer you any business. I will thank you for reigniting the fire for me to complete the job myself.
It's spelled Molitor.

Warren, RI. Had to stop for the pics and excavator.
2 of the most recent customers to eat at Gapplebees.
Slowly progressing towards a Daytona Prototype motor
this is awesome!
I bit the bullet and had Partee Racing do the bottom end as well. Shipped the heads back to Partee Racing for them to assemble the motor. High compression pistons, Arrow rods, all new everything. Almost ready to throw it into the wagon!
It has been awhile since I gave an update. Lots has been happening! Popped on an Active Autowerks supercharger, 4.10 gears with a drexler LSD, CSL King Pins and new bearings, CSL steering rack and all new power steering lines and reservoir, replaced the cam bolts and did a valve adjustment (2 were out of spec), valve cover gasket, manual swap with a JB Racing lightweight flywheel and HD Sach clutch, ZHP shift knob and a short shifter, and turned 200k miles on the car (motor probably has 130k-ish on it), and some 18" Apex wheels wrapped in PS4s 245 front, 275 rears.

Milo is more excited than me!!
Loving the tone! Quiet but sporty! This thing hauls ass! No pun intended.
First, family of 4, road trip to Door County was a success!
Need to work out a few bugs and find & fix a new slow leak in the rear air suspension.
Bugs include:
- Code IKE to S62 coolant temp. Getting an engine light due to coolant temp mismatch. (Need to swap back in 540i cluster to get the NCS software to work then swap back M5 cluster. Need all VIN numbers to match in the modules otherwise I can't code.)
- Look into fuel tank purge valve. Getting a code from that not doing it's job for one reason or another.
- Adjust headlights.
E30 is back from storage! Running strong
Oil & filter change. 10w-60 Liqui Moly & Mann Filter.
Installed: Repaired sunroof with new OEM rebuild kit. Black suede headliner, a, b, & c pillars. Black Nappa leather m5 front seats, front cards, lower dash and center console. Black carpet.
Still need some grey items swapped to Black but getting there.
Endless Detailing polished the turd up today! I'm loving it!
In! I'll be there in the e46 M3.
The e30's brakes lines are almost free of air bubbles. But still have to pop this guy in.

Pics of the leaves.
Used the INPA software to bleed the clutch and gearbox shifter. Ran the programs and it went into R & 1. Got excited then went to start it and it fired up on the 2nd crank!!!!!
