Planning on removing the oil level sensor. I'm not sure how important it is for the s85. But I would think if it is we could trick it to think it's full all the time with a resistor.www.classicdaily.net

there's something reassuring about seeing the level on a dipstick.
there's a lot of talk on m5 forums about v10 owners not fully understanding how much oil to put in....according to the instrument cluster.
I've got one of these on order...

A bit of a slow down with all my projects while I was moving to my new shop. Things are finally moving ahead again so it's time I update some build threads...
First of all the shell was moved from my home shop to a much bigger space. Let me tell you moving this car was nothing sort of scary. I am sure it was well more secure and nothing was going to happen.
Some pics of it's trip.
made it....
Back on a lift..
Working on the toe and camber adjusters on the rear subframe.
I didn't like how much was unsupported so I extended it some.
Freshly powdercoated bits
reinforcing trailing arms
A couple pictures of what has been holding things up...
New shop
and a new toy...

What do you think of those new IE adjusters? My eccentrics are maxed out for toe correction, I was thinking of doing the IE adjusters on a spare subframe and swapping them around.
Have you seen Jake on S14.net's trouble with the trailing arm enforcements? The fuel hose bumps into the right one, and the exhaust bumps into the drivers side one. He had to reweld them with the right one on the lower side of the seam, and the drivers on the upper side of the seam. Everything fit nicely on the bench, but didn't notice the interference until installing them on his car.

no I did not see that... I saw another person that did them like I did and they said there was no interference with the fuel hose. I guess we will find out when we put it up in there.www.classicdaily.net

Great build, Jake!

My e12 posi locks have stayed put for 12k hard miles.... I tore the rear diff mount out of the car but they stayed in place.. . I had a set of eccentrics on my s52 track car and they constantly came loose. finally aligned it and tack welded them. These have been great.. Eric When you say fuel hose interference you mean the fill hose right?

That's it, I'm sold!
Yes, the filler hose is what I was referring to.
