    Getting it ready for autocross

    Installed new front/rear rotors and new/rebuilt front calipers and did a brake fluid flush. Replaced a leaking low pressure power steering hose. Stretched a caliper bolt in the process, don't do this :)

                        I'll try to answer questions all in one post....

                        - holland and Wh33lhop, with the autocross season just around the corner I ran out of time so v8 swap is still WIP. I am currently looking for a 96-99 m62b44 and use all the m60b40 accessories for obd1 stuff...

                        - JT325IS, most things were bought new from blunt. valance came from UK ebay.

                        - AlpineM325, locally from a bmw/mini shop..they were only 60-70 each.

                          Did that same shit this weekend. Sometimes the best upgrade is to just fuckin replace all the OEM shit with new OEM shit.
