How much interest in a book on how to...

[der affe]

pre order...for those that can read?

[Mtriple]

focus your efforts on a newer chassis such as the E36/46.

... I think you would get screwed on making it because of the time spent versus the benefit.

I doubt I would make any big money doing this...

The reality is though I have most of it already done, it's more a mater of compiling, sorting, translating into understandable language and editing it all into book form.

If I did do it at all it would be more out of love for the machine (and some vanity) than money on my part.

Working on e46... I think we can just skip the 36s though.

Just sell plans to your strut brace/chassis stiffening device/etc so I dont keep having to avoid your group buy threads.

The design and plans are one thing...

Actually having the equipment and fixtures to fabricate them correctly is a whole different story. A lot of the stuff (actual construction of the parts) I couldn't do on my own.

I should tell the story here about how I paid for my my first house with one photograph that actually kind of sucked.

Lets see that picture.

[e30nub]

If you took the time to make one, I wouldn't hesitate to buy one. I'm always down for supporting.

Lets see that picture.

I bet it's a candid photo of Chris Bangle committing unmentionable (but blackmailable) acts with a clay model of the first bangle-butt trunk, a fleshlight, and about a pound of unsalted, whipped butter.

[Eric]

i dont see the point in selling it, it's just gonna end up on a pdf to download on here sooner or later. So might as well just offer it for free.

that's F-ed up, but so true, damn E30 owners.



would the book be more comprehensive than "take out the tar in the trunk"

I'd be interested in it. I've removed just about everything besides what is necessary to stay road legal (lights, wipers) so now i'd like to see some things that i can still do to the car.

[e34john]

Eventually I would like to have one, not right now though.

Will it come signed like the 101 projects 3 series book?

[z31maniac]

Don't do it.

Most here have will not follow through on anything. Por ejemplo, I put up a feeler for a chip and injectors and literally had 6 PMs with interest in a few hours.

Actually put them up for sale and now everyone has an excuse on why they can't buy them. Worthless broke baggypants.

[BeirBrennerE30]

I would buy for like $50ish. If it is mostly done then i see no harm publishing it. Make a few extra bucks on the side. More technical info the better.

Can you just skip the song and dance and admit that youre a compulsive liar?

-you did not pay for a house with a picture you took
-you will not write this book
-you do not have a full interior 318 w/ac that weighs under 2600lbs.
-this could go on and on
-you did not extrude/port the intake manifold (that you said you at least ported) that was sent to you for however many months
[see: http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/show...take+manifold]


Im going to continue to add to this list as i remember them. anyone else can feel free to contribute.

oh and im not sure that people on this board are willing to disassemble their transmissions and machine new componants out of "better alloys", or whatever ambiguous fucking phrase you used.

+1. I'll buy, I'm quite interested in adding lightness. $50 isn"t bad at all.
