Those toe arms are solid for the price. I bought a set 4 years ago the bushings are starting to crack but $50 for a set, sore Dick deal.

Not complaining about the nice weather but I would like to go ice racing.

Tow driver's inner monologue "No duramax, no care"

I would use the thicker headgasket.
If you are running e85 stick with the higher compression. 
If for whatever reason you want to switch it up you can always tear it down with the HG. Shaving the piston however you can not.
People may say you are doing it the hack way by using the thicker HG, but you are just doing it different than oem. There is more than one way to microwave a cat.

I went to the sinissippi event this last weekend. I will say that the event there for a non competitive driver is way better. There was only about 8 studded cars and they have limits on the amount of bolts on tires. So the course doesn't get ruts. It only had about 40 cars so more laps.
There also is a course on the other side of the lake where motorcycles run on Saturday so you can tear that up, and another circle track that the rednecks race on. Fun to watch the carnage while you wait. There was also 7 other bmws there, caged e46 m3 - e30 on studs, one guy let me ride in his studded e46 323i. 
I personally liked this better.
Also you can do a dual driver car they just have a seperate line so you get through in the same time.
I wont be available so you can borrow my helmet if needed.

Me too. I think its a a variable of the individual. I am going to get a little more personal with my answer in relating to myself and my knowledge and where it came from.
I was raised as an adopted child at a very early age (6months) and my adoptive parents have very very little mechanical skill. So I think my personal knowledge, desire, and passion was mostly inherited through genes. I have memories and pictures of me at the age of 6 pretending to work on my little red wagon underneath it as well as drawings that look like a 70 Chevelle. (My uncle was building one at the time) With that I don't think I can remember a time when I wasn't learning to build, draw, or create something with my hands. Around the age of 12 a bicycle shop moved into a store front 2 blocks from my house and I spent hours there talking with the mechanics, riding bikes, and just hanging out at the store learning. When I was 14 They offered me a job and I worked there for 2 more years until they closed and I transitioned into a different bike shop that I still work at today. Here I met a mechanic that was deeply involved with autocross and shared a lot of the same interests and passions that I did. He taught me an exceptional amount of things and also introduced me to my first project car.
Little did I know that this car would be a life changing experience that would provide me with knowledge I still use to day. I bought the car in driving condition for about 2 years and decided that the motor was tired. Without ever working on a project of this size, It was a little overwhelming. I managed to have a good friend at the time that convinced me from watching his father wrench that we could rebuild the engine. A year later, many many headaches, some frustrated parents, and lots of reading (the internet was just starting) I was able to start the car and drive it once again.
It was the greatest feeling ever.
So some take to it naturally, some are late bloomers, others may not have any idea what they are doing, but at some point you just have to have the drive, be willing to get your toes wet and learn. I find that to be one of the most exhilarating experiences about working on cars. There just so much to learn and I will never in the all the years I am on this Earth, be able to learn or remember all there is to learn. I still get confused by simple things, yet con solve complicated issues quickly. Sometimes its the complete opposite. I honestly have no idea how an automatic transmission actually works, how to balance a crankshaft, or how to fine tune a car on a Dyno. One day I might learn all of these things, but I know there will always be something else to learn, but this is also why we have each other and why this forum exists. We all share a similar passion and look forward to enjoying it with others and learning all at the same time.  
 

Well the car is finally to my home. They explained that they were having trouble finding a company that would tow it almost 100 miles. Understandable, I bought this hunk of junk for $400 from Chicagoland. 

Last picture is the reason the car was so cheap. The person I bought it from was a pollock and didn't speak any English besides yes and no. Google translater said what I believe was. I change battery and no turn key.
I was a little uneasy as I had to pay the guy for the car and hope that AAA would come. 

Damn... well I guess I can stop looking for a house because that's exactly what I want. 

That whole ordeal was such BS....damn impala

Mb your engine has too much compression.

If you need a noid light tester let me know I'm off the next three days.

@straight6pwr and I will be caravanin from the Milwaukee area others are welcome too join.

Pirtek in Menominee falls will be able to do it. I'm 85.3% sure I have the crimping tool for hydraulic lines I can check if you want to make it yourself.

I also have a m52 tb on my m50 manifold with no plate and boosted, with no leaks.

The black BRZ sits in the driveway to break things up a touch
At least Jake and I have different color cars now lol.

The URo one I had lasted 2 months and that was just from the car sitting.

Quick scrolling through and saw this and thought the classic wibimmers compression test. At least it's nothing major.
