Was meaning to ask, do you need any parts for the m42? I have a whole spare engine.

Aww fuck. Already cashed out two nights ago.

Love the color! If you're looking to save a few bucks, I bought 4 new hoses for my now dead M42. They are new in packaging. Check my thread if interested, and I can supply you with part numbers!

Aww fuck x2 :hitler:

AWWW YEAHHHH, that Eucalyptus point?


How did the first quarter go?

Haha, that's actually Tilden Park right by Berkeley. My E30 hasn't seen Soal yet, but it will after I bring it down after practice on a Saturday morning sometime during Winter or Spring quarter.

This quarter turned out much better than I thought it would, be I'm determined to get a 4.0 next quarter. It's that one ERC req (MMW) that screwed me for the lolz. Econ was alright, but I'm trying to get better than B in Macroecon in the spring.

So...I came home from college for winter break last Friday. This past week, I put in an effort to get the car back in shape, as it was steadily falling apart before I retired it to the garage. Now that I just had it re-insured, I'll be driving it for the next few weeks, whenever I come home on the weekends, and when I bring it down to San Diego with me in March/April till June. So the smog didn't go well..Failed terribly in NOx and HC's. Took it over to a local Bimmer guy's garage and he was laughing at how ALL of my hoses are cracked and or splitting apart. Beside that, I knew that my car was running extremely lean. The temp gauge had recently been close to the red zone quite frequently. Reason? Broken fan clutch. Another random problem was that my MAF intake boot (in the shitty, brittle state that it is) had cracked apart when I installed an aftermarket cone intake So...here's a short list of what I'll be doing over the next couple of weeks before I leave.

One more thing is that my car is pissing oil like a mofo. It's been in my aunt's garage for the past 3 months, and collected quite a bit on her garage floor :up:

Summer is practically over, and it's two weeks till the E30 will go into hibernation for a year..or longer.
Going to take the roof rack off this weekend, and detail it for a last time. Then some moe pics.

[trackjunkie21]

pics?

[freeride53]

After a week ....I'm DONE. Loving the nice slappin in the trunk.

[freeride53]

So, I posted a thread in the main section about what happened a few hours ago.
A bunch of wires somehow fell down, and and got caught around my steering column..now I'm sitting looking at sections of torn wires sitting on my floor mat.
One connector had come out, and the car was not starting...but I caught that, and fixed it.
Now, all i've seen so far is that my hazard, and left/right blinkers will not come on.

[freeride53]

Thanks dude. I'm not sure yet, I just promised a friend that I'll visit him.
I go to school down in Socal, but I have family in Memphis, so I figure I'd go to ATL while I'm in that region.

[acolella76]

when you come to ATL?

Nice car btw, I love me some 4 door
