      Bought an M50 for the car. Will be the platform for my turbo project.

            Finally got it insured! (and no, I wasn't driving it without insurance.)

              Finally got my 3.73 installed. I think my mechanic was happier than I was.

                        A while ago, but I degreased, steam cleaned, and scrubbed with a toothbrush my rear weaves (off the car of course), with my gf helping it took like an hour for the first and half an hour for the second (didn't fully clean the inside we had to go somewhere). Will soon do the fronts, bondo the scratches (damn PO's) and repaint the peeling wheels.

                        As a side note, does anyone else have fake basketweaves? Only one of mine says 'BBS Made in Germany' under the centercap, the rest are like some other 3-letter brand that starts with A (too lazy to look)..the BBS is the only one without the silver paint peeling off.

                          rebuilt my a/c system and powder coated and rebuilt my a/c compressor. Changed my injectors from 14.5 to 17lb. rebuilt the front suspension from the strut mounts down. Powder coated the struts, billy sport shocks with bav auto springs. new stab links, sway bar/bushings, control arms and bushings.

                            car stalls while at idle today. when i came back to her she would only stay running if i held down the throttle a bit(even then it would still drop and surge)

                            so i unplug my two air box connectors, and then re-connect them. car runs and idles perfect... its done this a few times and is fixed the same way each time. getting annoying

                              I have some 15x7 weaves, offset is around et25. They're not just some other mesh wheel but actual copies of BBS weaves with the BMW centre cap. No brand markings on them though.
