Not much .... just livin the dream at my new job. I wake up now at 6:15 am instead of 5:20 am and i get home now at 6:00pm instead of 7:15pm. I drive 20 miles instead of 38 miles. Stress free !!! Somebody pinch me lol.

Better pay and less gas used to get there? Coool

That is such a great road. Since I moved up to Santa Barbara I've been meaning to go burn some gas and take it all the way to Frazier Park.

If my friends and I start a trend of going out there to camp, I welcome all you fucks to come out too....it could be as frequent as once a month. Soo much fun out there, plus booze and a firepit at night.

finally had a chance to start tearing apart the underside of my car, got the suspension mostly off.

Is that fully ACS kitted?

No idea what the kit is, I'll ask him or put some more pictures of it up tomorrow. Like I said, E30's are new to me and so far the adventure has been awesome! BTW mine is the dark green one, so it already hurts that my younger brother has the better car..

Anyone know what can possibly be the oil leak from the front of the engine? Not the oil filter housing or the oil pan.

Valve cover gasket, timing chain cover, and who knows what else.

Thanks. I would try that except I dont have any electrical testing equipment with me. Its all at my garage which is like 6 miles away. I just walked my happy ass to the O'Reillys near my house and they said the battery tested fine. Come home and still nothing. Its not even trying to turn over. Im really frustrated because I need to be in Glendale (20+ miles away) in a few hours and have no idea how I can get there.

I also noticed the battery light on the cluster isnt going on with the rest when I put the key in the "on" position. Not sure if it EVER has, but I am noticing it now. Checked under the hood and everything seems just like it was.

Check your alternator connections. Grab the power wire to the starter behind the alternator give it a good wiggle. Maybe loose or corroded. Quite positive its an alternator issue without looking at the car.

Almost finished with my e36 rack and pinion. I'm excited just having some issues with binding and the upper knuckle hitting the firewall.

My younger brother just swapped his in. It's really nice.

I hope it gets rid of my wobble at 60mph. Might be looking into a power steering pump as well but not sure yet

We have all that stuff if you need it.
My brother was given a pump, res, and I believe lines when he purchased the e36 rack.

The old rack was burnt so it had no P/S - he fell in love with the car again afterwards.

I fell in love once. ONCE.


Now there is a hole where my heart used to be. I try to fill it up with pizza and beer.
