    YEah, would have been chill if we could. Next time though. I don't get how people study in the library, I hate it. I prefer my apartment.

    I wish I could afford to buy those wheels and adapters off of you. I love style fives. Well, I hope you have a safe drive up man. I am sure you will be good.

    Also, Gotta drive my car sometime. The gc/revalved billies are awesome. It's a hoot to drive even with four passengers and audio equipment.

            Yesterday.... Copped H&R M3 races (reds), Bosch sparkplugs, oil filter, air filter, box of synthetic oil for the change, upper & lower oil pan gaskets, valve cover gasket.

            Still need to cop a pair of billy sports for the rear and sway bar bushings.

            Also looking for a shop to press my CABs in the bay area!

            It's gonna be a busy xmas week :D

                  Over winter break, I addressed:

                  -bilstein sport rear shocks
                  -h&r race springs (installed the rears only)
                  -new front brake rotors
                  -new front pads
                  -brake fluid flush (had this done for me)
                  -power steering belt
                  -alternator belt
                  -ac belt
                  -oil & oil filter change

                  But ALL hell broke loose this evening when I noticed that the engine had NO oil in it.
                  Then I looked on the floor of my condo's garage and noticed a lake of oil. :(

                  I filled it up with oil, went to the grocery store, got gas, dinner, and came home.
                  Spent the great majority of the night cleaning what I could off of the floor and still need to get some sort of chemical to clean it tomorrow before my landlord or kooky HOA neighbors flip out. Any suggestions/tips on cleaning it?

                  Anyways, so I'm a broke college student with no tools, no space, no time with a very very busy month ahead of me, and no money. :(

                  I'll be non-op'ing the car, cutting its insurance, and leaving it in our house's garage till summertime when I'll have it towed to a relatives house in LA, where it'll likely sit for the next couple of years.

                  We had a great run together, but at the moment, I just don't have time/money etc to spend on it, and live pretty close to school so I'll be biking and taking the bus.

                  Cheers to all,
                  Sina

                  PS: my roommate owns that schwarz 323i Baur euro.
                  At least it'll have some company in the garage for the next 6 months! :D

                        Sad day... but I know the feeling. My suspension is all sorts of fucked up and I don't have the time, money nor space to deal with it until summer. And even then time is gonna be at an all time short.

                        College and e30's just don't mix.

                                So wait... You're parking the car for a couple years because of an oil leak?

                                Think about it, you just did an oil change. Maybe the problem is related to that.
