91 and 87 only so lowest and highest grade theres 10% ethanol in all the costco gas stations so I guess its a good thing.

yes big overhaul. trying to get it done by may but we will see.

Oh nice. How deep into are we talking? Scratching the surface with new springs and dashpots or are we talking 4-levels of Inception deep with new control arms, bushings, strut mounts, etc.?

what octanes does costco have?

bollyspam shoulda capped one of the photos he posted.

Cool. I've been touching up with undercoating spray as necessary, but I want to strip the whole thing down entirely and respray. WTB: car rotisserie. lol

ive got a clutch fan with clutch for an m42 dont know if that fits on the m20.

Just checked realoem, and looks like it wouldn't work, unless someone smarter than I knows better. Thanks though.

Said news. My trans took a shit on me tonight leaving my dads area in Sylmar. Heard a clunk/pop and when i went to 4th gear it was wobbling. i said fuck it and made the 45 mile trip back home , didnt use 4th gear. 5th was nice and smooth. At a light i could smell gear oil , so i knew somthing is leaking, so i goto my job to get a flashlight and look under and theres a puddle that was 3x3 feet wide and drip marks up to where i parked. Made it home and park it. Got alot on my mind now. Should I fix it ( buy trans , clutch to bearing etc etc ) im guessing it should cost me about 400-700 to get all this crap fixed. Luckly ive got the money or should i just sell the car or trade for a ETA. Im pissed but sad at the same time. i started to notice the TO get loud today driving to the valley. So yea now im gunna drink it up and sleep on it. :(

shitty part is , money that was saved was for a top and full int.

damn that sux. sorry to hear that dude. atleast you made it home.

Chevron 91 octane in reseda is only 4.07. I would hate to live out wherever you all live.

[supkev]

3.99 costco gas ftw.

[bmw325csi]

for 91 though? Us tuned guys need that 91 yo!

[tonywonder]

mine only uses 91 and its stock. but i think costco prices are always like 10cents less than the local prices. so 3.99 for 91 sounds about right.

[e30trooper]

4.11 for 91 at my job ( Chevron ) :D
