Got the motor in finally today. Flywheel installed, clutch installed, tanny mounted, motor shoe-horned in.. It was a real fight to make it fit.. I cant imagine doing it again, it was a total bitch.

Excuse me? Yes it is. Look at the original post date in the first post. It's taken me a LONG time to get this far, and I'm just cracking the surface.

I am aware at how long it has taken to get here but for some odd reason i thought this was your second thread. But I went back to the original page and noticed that it wasnt.

To get it to bolt in, it was just the z3 arms. I also installed UUC race bushings to replace the originals. The reason it took so long to get to this point was getting the cash to afford the clutch and flywheel combo.

And Widm3r, its all good :)
