If you were wondering, I had bought a kit from Stitchedwheels here on r3v and used it to reupholster some really tattered M3 seats I found on Craigslist. A lot of work, but it was for sure worth it.

Interior is in, minus my new dash, euro clock, gauge cluster, and stereo. The cluster will *have* to go in soon.
Hype intensifies

Alright, alright. I didn't put the motor in this weekend...
But I made decent progress! I had to scramble around for a bunch of parts but I've got most of everything now. Have some spark plugs/ new wires, oem motor and trans mounts coming in a couple days. After work this week I'm planning on sorting out all the little stuff and hopefully I can put the motor in next weekend.
Here's the motor as it sits: 95% complete. Everything torqued down.

I would remove the head and set the crank and cam to TDC separately before putting it back together, at least that's what I did with my stock rebuild.

Slow progress lately. Went to a wedding, bought a 986, sold my G35, and my friends got me into Overwatch :/
Finally got the head on! Only torqued stage 1 until I decide to seal the deal. I'm shooting for dropping that sucker in this weekend.
