    Tried to find a nasty clunk in the rear end. I thought the driveshaft was toast, but turned out to be a broken rear muffler mount - made a temporary mount, but will have to order a new one. The driveshaft is nonetheless on its way out, just wasn't clunking as much as the mount. My left rear axle has a fair amount of play in it too so this summer I will have to give the e30 some decent car R&R.

    Saturday night I did my third timing belt and second water pump since 2012. Definitely getting better at it. Last time I had a bitch of a time getting the belt on... This time I used this plastic clamps to hold the tension on the belt... Literally took me about two minutes.

    Not sure why people have big issues with aligning the hood... I put the back end of it on the rails, like when you first open it... My buddy made me these studs to line up the brackets, and I get the first bolt in and test the movement. If it slides in nice and opens the same way, I tighten the rest down. I've removed the hood twice now on my own and the reinstall has been great both times.

    interesting, thankyou. I agree a rear strutbar would be great piece of mind

    These are CAtuned coil overs. I spoke with Igor before buying them he said they would be fine without reinforcement but he would recommend a rear strut bar.

    I installed my rear coil overs, installed my front and rear strut bar, shadow lined the drivers side with SEM over top my faded powder coated trim, installed the hose from the intake to the icv, installed a new purge valve, installed my Seattle circuit fuel correction device(http://www.seattlecircuit.com/), installed my plate filler after I painted it with SEM, and washed it. This was all in the last two days.
