Constant Work in Progress

[ydubbs4]

After about a year, I figure its time to get mine up there. The passenger side trim got f'd, which is why its not painted (had to buy a replacement). This is probably the way it is going to sit for awhile, or at least until I get tired of it again.













Comments and questions welcome.....

Nice red car man! Nice wheels too! What's the "B6" all about...?

[ydubbs4]

It was my group and number for a PCA event at Nelson Ledges in Ohio about 10 weeks ago. I liked the way they looked, so they have been there ever since.

Nice car, I like the way you handled the engine bay.

i like!

you are a few steps ahead of me. i want some ssr comps, and i need to get my ass in gear and do my shadowlining.

edit: what suspension are u running?

[ydubbs4]

Eibach's with Bilstein Sports. Sooner or later I want to go IE Stage 3, but that might be awhile.

very nice! love the wheels, and thats probably the cleanest bumper tuck ive seen. did you repaint your front bumper covers or buy new ones?

[diegom6]

how does that aux fan works? cool enough the temp? how is switched? I mean witht a thermostate of how much F°?

16" ?

Nice car man, I always wanted to know how looks those SSRs in our bimmers...

[ydubbs4]

My electric fan is constantly on. I cant find a low enough temperature switch that will fit into the radiator, which sucks, but its manageable. As far as temps, I am always below half, and generally around the first tick mark. I am wondering how low its going to stay when it gets really cold out.

The SSR's are 16".

how do you like the suspension setup?

[EtaSport]

That car looks pretty darn good. Does yours have the plastic skid plates under the front end? like right under after the spoiler? I was wondering because I have tried to get to my bumper shocks so I can remove them to tuck the front bumper. I have an es so it has the front spoiler like yours. Is there an easy way to get to the bolts for the front bumper shocks? I have tried almost everything (obviously not eveything because I havent gotten it done yet) and im not sure what else to do.

My rear is already in, and it looks kinda funny with the front still sticking out. All my friends are asking when im going to get it done. any help would be appreciated.
nice car, looks clean man. keep up the work.

Rob: The suspension setup is alright. After running it for 20 months now, I have gotten used to it, and feel that it is a little soft. I might go to IE Stage III Race in the spring, or maybe pull the trigger and get GC's. Its good for now, as Boston streets are atrocious.

Eta Sport: I was already missing some of the underbody paneling, and the rest of it I ended up ripping out at a track event this past summer. Find out how your spoiler is mounted on the sides, right in front of the front tires. If its bolted or screwed on, just undo the screws and pull down. The tab on the top of the spoiler will come down out of the black plastic, and then bend it out (but not too far). With that, you ought to be able to pull out the paneling, and the brake duct.
