    Bought lots of new parts: exhaust install kit, valve cover gasket, door seals, iS side skirts + install parts, spark plugs, oil filter, air filter, BavAuto Wires, Lockstrips (Front and Rear),
    and all new hoses.

    Though about pulling more stuff from the parts car....it was too cold (for me) and I'm lazy tonight. Maybe I'll do more tomorrow... or just spend more money on parts either way I'm happy.

            Master cylinder & bleed the es...now she stops and I smell...perhaps I'll pull the engine & transmission on the 88, 91, and 92 later, then I can reinstall the 91 engine and 88 transmission in the 92

            This place is like catholic school, 2/3 of the students smoke weed on a daily basis, but the faculty seems to convince the outside world that drugs are just in the other schools, the resident pot dealer thinks he's cool because he has the originality to call anyone he doesn't like a homosexual, and most of the little children follow him like sheep, then there's the few with brains, you hardly ever hear from them, perhaps don't even know they exist, but they get all the sh!t done.

              185k on the clock too. I'm actually about to start a s52 crank/m50 block itb gt35r build on my e36, so I wanted the e30 in tip top. I'm going to start collecting parts for a stoker motor for the e30, shooting for 250whp n/a.

                          3, 1 strip down, one to get head and timing assembly back on + drain fluids (got cut short by a buddy who needed help with a honda water pump), one to put on the covers and electrical componants back in place + fill and bleed. I have an obbsession with letting things drain for as long as possible, try it sometime put down a fresh fan before you walk away, you'd be suprised how much more comes out.

                              Did you get blunt's parts? because he made a thread trying to contact you, then we made fun of his inability to remember your address/control his bowel movements.
