    I am posting to keep myself motivated, I have a lot of stuff I would like to do over the winter so I need to keep at it to be ready by spring.
     
    To Do:
    Pull engine
    Drop subframes, gas tank etc
    Weld in chassis reinforcments
    Rocker rust repair
    Redo undercoating on bottom
    Remove broken ABS
    Install M54B30 intake cam
    Install E46 330 front brakes
     
    And then put it all back together.
     
    Here's what I am starting with
     

     
    Mileage parked 11/10/13

     

     
    DS front rocker

     
    DS rear rocker

     
    DS rocker and door

     
    PS front rocker

     
    PS rear rocker

     
    PS rear wheel arch

     
    Cams, just using the intake

     
    Brakes, 325mm oil bottle for reference

    A friend once showed this to me and it was a really nice neat breakdown of basic changes and their effect on handling. Click to enlarge the images.

    I do love the Arctic Grey, I haven't seen very many around.  I have way too much time/money into this car to let it go, I guess it's just an e36 but there are very few cars I would want instead.  Perfect blend of performance, great DD, and luxury.  I hope to have this car for a long long time.

    Worked great for me, but pour it into the funnel slowly, I had a brain fart and forgot my trans only holds 1.2 qts, for some reason I was thinking 1.8, so I dumped a half quart of redline on the ground.

    Shirts will arrive from American Apparel next Wednesday and then the screen printing process will begin. Should be about another week after that so I'm thinking we will have these around Oct 9th.

    jc43089 got a reaction from BsE46 in how to replace e36 control arm bushings with no press   
    I have the centered hole m3 ones, I took them to my neighbor's auto shop, he knocked the old ones out with the air chisel and put the new ones in with a bottle jack type of press.  My wife makes them a batch of cookies and we are even lol.
     
    I cut the rubber out with a box cutter.
