This thread is amazing. I have learned how to do *so much* just by reading this thread. Thank you sir.

Holy crap. That thing doesn't exactly look torsionally rigid. Imagine the first time he takes a corner at speed and that thing twists up. At least the oil pan will be there to stop it.

Amazing to me that the engineers who modified these cars for years never thought of doing some Wal-Mart reconfiguring to a stressed member of the suspension instead of just installing an electric fan. Frickin' lazy Alpina employees...

$20 says he took that to a shop that notches frames for trucks running airbags. I might need to go to bfest just so I can meet this guy and report back to those who can't make it.

The more I look at that subframe...
It looks strong but the car will drive squirly as fuck. :P

Andrew, PLEASE post updates!

[RidingSimple]

Ironically? Do you mean inconveniently? Maybe coincidentally? Where's the irony? Irony would be you going for your first test drive and yelling out the window "See guys, it's fine!!! I told those R3V ass-holes it would be fine!!!!" And then crashing into a telephone pole.

I have no place posting in this thread, but that is *seriously* the funniest post I've read in 10 years on bmw forums.

Kudos.

And to keep slightly On topic, he maybe crazy, but damn this is a kinda cool thread. Pretty car. Hope it runs with the new powerplant.

That ICP song is the worst thing I have ever heard... HOLY FUCK.

So, what? He decided to stop posting updates here because he doesn't have the balls to put up with the occasional hazing?
