      Do suspension first, then find wheels that fit proper size tires! A skinnier tire than stock on a sports car is just silly.

              they will never quite fit right due to the offset imo (unless you find e36 offset set, then you're a baller)

                I need to replace my crank, so I'm thinking S50 crank/rods combo, but I think that'd involve changing the bore. Didn't you have S50 rods for sale earlier?
                I sold them like two weeks ago..all I have left is an eta crank now, which you obviously have. How big are you thinking of going?

                      E, I told you my brakes we acting strange at low speeds and you mentioned a possible leak but I wasn't able to find one in the obvious places. Last night I swapped out my exhaust to pass inspection and put the dif back in.

                      While under there I noticed a little pool of fluid from under the brake booster area, saw significant fluid dripping down from above and down the frame rail but could not locate the leak. Looked from above and touched all connections I could see, not a thing. Then i noticed a pool of fluid on the rail below the MC, followed a brake line and found my leak, the rear brake pressure regulator was leaking from the bottom.

                      Before last night I didn't even know it existed. it just took the car sitting for two weeks for enough fluid to collect in one place.

                            Trippy, I'll get to checking my stuff out, sounds a little scary since I never check anywhere near there.

                              suspension is definitely first. i'm just trying to figure out what wheel setup i am going to go with.
