Hey Stefen,
thanks man.

yeap, moved to T.O., a lot more convenient and less weekend commotion.
covered garage too., my new private hangout spot.
the wife loves the new array of local stores, darn does she shop !!!

how's everything with you, still in town ?

I finally found the pics I took with your 16"s wheels.
borrow them 1 afternoon for a quick shoot,
mostly wanted to make sure the 16's would clear the IE BBK, they did and so i hope BBS RS 16's will too....

do you remember the offset on those rims ? deffently 16's are the way to go on e30's.
the tires still holding strong on the minivan, great grip :)
can't get them to screch just yet.
thanks for the props...

[parkerbink]

Those look good on your car Frank!

I am in Mexico, left L.A. in February.

I like T.O. I worked in Westlake and then at Amgen in T.O.

I think the rims were 28 but am not sure.

Glad the tires are working for you.

[Mr.SWISS]

thanks guys,

First, my hat's off to bmwflying for the great built and install, talk about fast turn around.,
thanks a million mang.

The Engine it's sweet, glad i went oem with a strong bottom.,

there's more rattle from the cluch due to thinner fly wheel ?
i think so, it rattles more when cold. hhahahah. here's a vid or 2 and huge pic :) ...

engine video ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akMOfKlFi1I

and from cockpit ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ls6KJ09he3E , notice high oil pressure, she settle at 1.2Bar at 750 rpms.,
oil temp sensor snaped off so don't mind that,
pressure jumps right up before 1,800 rpms and remains above 2bar on the revdown, sweet.....

TerribleOne, i heard of ppl getting tickets for that, don it look like crooket buck teeth ? heheheh :)

William, really love what your done to your sweet Delphin, color matching front lip and rocker panels it's a great look, shadow line and tucked bumpers, you're the mang :)

that rear camber it's gonna chew up those tyres in no time, how much did you lower her ?
I still have that K-Mac tool, it makes replacing rear trailing arm bushings a 60 second affair, in all a easy afternoon job, I belive that 7 series cars had off set bushings, just like k-macs but made of rubber, or was it off set studs, one or the other, it will cost less than a set of rear tires, PM me and I'll send you the tool when your ready.

looks like little bro it's been working out. ;)

TrashCop, can't run 15's due to IE's BBK, 17's right now but ASA 16's fit. holding out for a set of BBR RS 16's 8 & 9
Love your ACS, are they 16x7.5 ?


those 18's look pimp-a-holic, too much i think.
but 19's would do, schrew dad, go with 20"s :)

What kind of head bolts are those? Haven't seen you at the fest in a while homie. Hope things in Cali are good.

[fporro]

hey Swiss, mang.
those are Metric Mechanic Bolts.

yards are having a 50% sale next weekend, so pulling a 89+ harness for this motor, that way i'll be able to use the 89+ oil level sensor, fuel rail, as well as overall cleaner setup., should have done it 2 years ago when I swaped out the old engine.

Next, oem plastic box onto big 6 afm, any tips ?
But what i really want it's a shorter radiator that i could move forward so i can route a pipe leading off cone filter., i did one a long time ago The squess point was where the driverside headlights meet radiator side. There's no a/c left in this car so there's plenty of free room up front.

all's good around here, doing nuthing I guess. lazy summer :) hahahah. mntbiking.

rebuilt the RS with some parts from the RF's but now i'm not sure of what's the new offset.,
all i did was add 1/2 deeper inner lip, so from 15x6.5et34 to 15x7 and et40 or 46 ?

anyways, borrowed the rear hubcentric spacers from delphi, so that should fix it,
they are 1/2" too, picking up studs and what nots tomorrow.
had the 6.5's on 195/50/15, she handle ok 'til rear driver side blewout, was only doing 9o, hahhaha. :)
