Stay tuned...

Off to Bimmerfest, which btw was a blast!










Props to the guys who took these 2 shots:D




And the ride back home the next day

[ecuastyle84]

I've been procrastinating this for a long time and Bimmerfest East 2012 was around the corner. I needed to get this done before making the trip to MD.






Cutting the old out




More cutting




Power washing the diff cover


Not 100% clean but better than it was before


New Revshift poly bushing installed






Original plan to refill the diff with the funnel and tubing didn't work out, so a better solution was found.


And done!



Picked up some fogs off the forums, I was tired of seeing the emptiness on the bumper lol.

I was bored one day so I decided to take some pics. I need a better camera:/

[ecuastyle84]

wait so you payed $200 for a skid plate that still let your oil pan get fucked?
good investment.
raceskids are such a false sense of security.

Yea at first I thought it was strong enough to withstand severe punishment but I guess not. It has saved my oil pan a few times tho, just gotta be more cautious when driving down shitty roads. In the future I'll be looking to get the severe duty skid plate from E30 Motorwerks, then I'll have no worries:D

i will add its looking very nice, did you need spacers to get it flush? 15x8 +15 yeah?

16x9 et15 all around
8mm spacer in the front and 15mm in the rear
Final offset et7 front et0 rear

Nice car man :) Nice interior ...

Thanks man

Nothing like a brand new CSB =) Looks great and really ncie 240! When I saw that I knew you would do good by her. Welcome to the madness!

Thanks, glad to be aboard:D

Props on going BC! how do you like them? I have 16x9s up front and I needed to order shorter springs, they will sell you any length.

I love them! It's a nice and comfortable ride for my daily driving, for the price they go for I can't complain at all.

At the time I didnt know the BCs offered custom rates/lengths etc. or else I would of went with the shorter springs to avoid a spacer.....but I was going use one anyway lol.

The CSB was getting worse so it was time to replace it.




Markings made for reinstall




Clearly it was shot


The bearing itself wasn't an easy task to take out since I didn't have a press.


So ended up getting it air hammered out




New one install




To end the day after a successful install:D

[ecuastyle84]

Just a little update. Replaced the waterpump and tstat which ended up being a pain, the waterpump that is. I guess it was so seized that when I started hammering the shit out of it it broke in half.




Luckily my buddy came to the rescue and used his air hammer to break off the remaining piece

[evandael]
