      Yes I'm mounting the gauge just waiting for the panel from Jaywood to get here.

      Not sure what sticker? The bimmerheads? Or ground control? Ground control is gonna get taken off eventually i stuck it on to see if i like and es no Bueno

When I drove it ran flawlessly aside from not charging but that's fixed now.
        My m20 has the same lope, but yours is a bit deeper growl. Mine started after I ditched the cat and ran straight pipes to various muffler ends. I currently have a stock ansa muffler on it. It sounded better than the 2 various flowmaster series I ran back in the day. Mine does run rich but i think its due to a crappy aftermarket o2 that has died and the straight pipes.

          Pretty much what mine is. Straight pipe to a Vibrant muffler. I just got the AEM wideband installed and o2 welded in. That lope was in open loop with no o2 at all. Since its winter i wont get to really mess with it much but in the spring i will. Just gonna have to make a trip out there to get car off its wheels so tires don't go flat and bad. Should probably take off the spoiler too.

              Maybe a little but nothing major. Anything that has to do with running it will have to wait since i don't wanna drive it in the winter and its cold as hell already. Might clean up some odds and ends. Got a power steering delete to put on and the wide band gauge panel to install.

                  Nothing really done except i put wide band in its spot and bought the alpina shift knob and console vent for it also started it the other day when i was out there it sounded great haha. I noticed that the videos are gone. I think its because I uploaded then with tapatalk not youtube. Will have to go through and do that.







                  The weather here has been absolute shit raining all the time so i haven't taken it out of hibernation mode. I need to get it licensed sometime. I have just been dreading it because i have to drive the car there and its in the middle of the city and my car is 20 min outside the city and I really don't wanna mess with driving around all them idiots. Gonna grab some Dynamat and put it in the floors and put a black carpet I have around in. My project plate is full haha

                      Here is a pic of outside. Can see i sprung a leak in the rear end so i swapped in a 3.73 from the 2.93 i had and delete power steering. Don't have a pic of doing the diff though. It appears the 3.73 i picked up for cheap has been rebuilt the internals were looking minty fresh. I'm gonna try and get out there tomorrow and clean up the interior and finish a up a couple little things. I also got a vintage plate for the car.

                          Yes sir. Just gotta mail the plate in with an application and they will send it back with a form to get it registered. Only requirement is the tag on the plate is of the year your car is titled as.

                            Such a nice car and the plate just makes it better; glad to see this car is coming alone.

                              The only thing that sucks is the tail panel is setup for euro plates and im not drilling into the panel so i put the euro mount on and drilled the plate. It wont be noticeable so its fine.
