          Got my new sport wheel installed in ETA and put one in the 318I. Had to install a grave yard muffler on the ETA cus the OEM one rotted out. The one I found was a thermal research an development, it actually sounds pretty good surprisingly.

            I removed my passenger side door sill and put in a new passenger side door seal which I bough from a friend with a wrecked e30. Then I went to home depot to buy some special pliers to remove the tabs. I put everything back together and it's good.

            I also washed the car... umm let's see oh yeah I removed the mouldings on the right just to see if I could. I plan on removing them next weekend and covering them with plastidip. I really don't like it when moulding is painted to match the car exterior.

              In my 320is, my shifter was getting sloppy, and I mean really really sloppy. As of yesterday, I completely lost 2nd and 4th gear entirely. There was so much slop in the shifter, that I couldn't even manage to engage in either of these gears. I managed to limp the car home using 1st, 3rd, and 5th gears and jacked the car up to take a look. There are two very important bolts that hold the metal shifter shroud to the transmission and one bold was completely missing and the other one backed out about 70%. I managed to find the missing bold wedged between the body and the exhaust shield and I got both bolts back in their original spots and tightened down.

              I was so damn excited that the fix cost me nothing. It really is a pleasure to be able to use all 5 gears on these powerless vehicles.

              It was awesome.

                  Swapped the 2.83lsd for a 3.73lsd to better match my r154 trans.

                  All done and in. Now to put her away for winter :(

                              Got new cap, rotor, wires, valve cover gasket, timing belt/tensioner, and thermostat for the ETA. Don't ask how much it all cost.

                                GC coils with Koni's and an ejnight cross brace. Took about 4 times longer than it should have too.
                                The first car I ever rode in was an e30
