Too far?

And this is my ticket to move back west. Ive always wanted to live near a bmw factory AND meth heads. Spartanburg cant offer me that right now

Interesting. I do CAD and 3d modeling stuff and can't do it without 2 screens. 

Maybe it would be a good idea to set up a photo album on here as a picture dump, then we can have a vote thread after everything is sorted into a category.

If you value your sanity. Promptly leave the group as well

Dude, please make a Paypal account with a semi professional email address lol.
Shirts look dope!

+1 vote for gutting it 

Official burnout thread?!

I recently put a set of 225 Direzza ZII's on my car, I am inclined to think that you will be happy with them. 
Car looks good, would be cool to see the weight of it. 

Great, stupidity-free meet. It was nice talking to everyone. Suprised to see Ben at a meetup, and Dave's car moving under it's own power! *mind blown*

Generally I don't have a running/driving car.... lol 

Got the front end of the car all together, and got it running and driving!
The first time driving it was a huge disappointment, it just didn't feel right. The pedal position didn't seem to matter much in terms of power, it didn't feel smooth, and just didn't feel quite right. I changed the spark plugs from cheap plugs to less cheap plugs and viola it felt quite a bit more proper, and things seem to be working the way they should. I still have an idle issue that I haven't dug too far into yet, and my unloader relays aren't grounding, so I need to take care of those things and all should be well.
I still have the 2.93LSD in the car, and I was expecting it to be quite a slouch; but I was wrong. The m52 makes a lot more torque than the m50, and it is quite amusing to scoot around short shifting. 
I'm just glad to have the car back on the road! The chassis feels fantastic compared to my 205k mile e46! 
 

Update : The car is quite a lot of fun. I have been driving it a lot. 

This whole driving vs. working on a car thing is odd.....

Breaking the rebuilt motor in the more proper way. Known good tune, no boost, 1k miles of normal running to get things seated. Then we throw the snail back on.

I ran a Victor Reinz gasket on boost. It survived, the piston rings didnt.

This is bizzare. Almost nearly as horrible as requiring illegal immigrants to provide a valid id to vote.
Okay, ive gone too far.

Use the BMW blue coolant. When it leaks you can just pretend it's washer fluid and ignore future repairs.
