                    On weekend I waxed it twice, built the original central locking, but the relay seems to be broken (ordered new already). And finally got HIDs..




                    Still lots of work to do with this car. Next two weeks I'm gonna change rear trailing arms with brake discs and change bushes to poly urethane. :)

                              This week I glass blasted some parts to rear brakes. Actually in M20-engined 320i w/o ABS has drum brakes in rear and they just weren't good enough on track.

                              So. had to get some used parts, blast and paint them and some new parts, put them together and result is fine.

                              Some pics:

                              blasted and painted


                              Something assembled






                              and ready for installation






                              Then old out and new in



                              This is how it looks and they really work!! :)



                              Oh, and powerflex polyurethane bushes here also!
