Did you notice any improvements in ride after installing the hardtop? Did the chassis seem stiffer at all?

Looking good. I'm trying to get some inspiration for my future vert project.

Thanks for the bump. I haven't updated this thread in a while because I was too busy with other projects. The only thing new is the hardtop, and I bought a an oem windscreen. I haven't even removed the hardtop since installing it because I don't have anywhere to store it ATM.

Here are the latest pics, but I've posted them before.

I cant hardy wait for this to get in the F/S. :) Nice progress.

Don't hold your breath :D

How come you didn't come out to any of the meets this weekend?

Family was in town for a wedding :-|

I'd debadge it though. :)

I'm gonna swap the m-tech badge from the original trunk lid asap.

Looks great as is. Glad to see you actually found a trunk lid for it! I'd debadge it though. :)

Great job so far. I always liked Sterling Silver. How come you didn't come out to any of the meets this weekend?

Cleaned up the rear. No more 3rd brake light and holes from previous spoiler. Also added a euro plate filler.



No more ripped up seats. I fixed/replaced my original leather.



It's got it share of blemishes, but I can live with them. I feel good knowing that I saved this M-tech from being parted and sent to the breaker.

I scaled back my plans for this car. I decided that all I really need is for it to be reliable and presentable. Just in time for the first weekend of spring...

Cleaned up the front with new lights and a euro plate.



Stance might actually be higher than original M-tech height :( but I like it. I'm running Koni shocks/struts and Dinan springs; a 14mm Dinan rear swaybar, and stock 21mm front swaybar mounted m3-style; m3 offset CABs and IE subframe and RTABs. The freshened up suspension together with the quicker 95 m3 steering rack and 4.27 torsen diff. makes the car so much fun that I don't mind the autotragic ;)

Thanks for the compliments and encouragment.

something is really different about the ride height in the back. my car sits a full inch lower on the dinan vert springs and koni shocks. love where this car is going. any plans on smoking the side markers?

He probably pulled the boat anchor from the battery well.

What he said. The anchor was removed by the PO. Plus the spare is gone, and it has a lightweight trunk lid, ie. the PO drilled a bunch of holes to install a spoiler :???: I haven't given the sidemarkers much thought yet, but I'll probably keep the stock look.
