Anybody want to take any bets?

Car is not STX legal (diff ratio) but I am racing it on Sunday.

because of the 6 speed?

No, because I changed it from a 2.93 to a 3.15. 6 speed is stock.

Autoxed it today, actually did very well all things considered. The class I'm in (SM) is full of corn burning Hoosier-shod Evos and I am mostly stock on 300 treadwear tires, I was about 1-2 seconds off their pace.

It's not, lol. But thanks, it's a great daily.

Got rid of the old windshield cowling after the autox. Old nasty cowling:


New sexy cowling

I have a 3.46 diff if you want to move up. $180 shipped to your door.

Did the 3.15 come in any E46 non-M? If it did, its DSP legal.

Unfortunately no. 2.93, 3.07 and 3.46 did but 3.15 was never in any E46. I'm in SM. I would have gotten a 3.07 had I had a choice but this one popped up used for a great price.

You guys are going to El Toro next week, right? I'm super jelly, Pro Solo looks awesome.

Awesome work!

HT10s ftw



On car



After a little break, time to flush and bleed, baby.



Super blue and pressure bleeder FTMFW, thanks kronus

Front HT10s borrowed from the good man of bimmers, bimmerman325i. Did you know the 330i, E36 M3 and E46 M3 all share the same front pad shape? Now you know.





Car is now ready for Laguna Seca this Wednesday. Had fun bedding in the pads, much to my victim's.... I mean passengers' dismay last night. Don't mind the diff fluid.

Werd. Nothing grips like race pads.

[Northern]

are you running HT-10s on a DD? or are you swapping them back and forth?

[Nsquared97]

Laguna Seca?? So jelly. You damn well better get videos of that too.

Brofist. Nothing like instant bite and full ABS threshold from 120+.

So far they are actually DDable pads if you can manage to keep them cold and don't mind cleaning brake dust. If you heat them up at all they start squealing like a bitch.

I will probably keep HT10s on the car as long as I am tracking it, or until I get really sick of having black wheels and ghetto sounding brakes. As it is it's still hilarious watching people wince in confusion as the shiny new BMW pulls up to a stop sign and belts a wail of ear-piercing squeals as it slows.

Sure thing. ;)
