    Also,

    I did some work today on my e30's. I swapped my lukebox, rear seat w/ skipass, and mkII Recaros into the eta. And put the interior from the eta into the four door. I shall be putting the ground control, basketweaves, skirts, and spoiler on sometime this week.

    I must say the lukebox with premium sound speakers is amazing. I was getting a lot of muffled highs from the bass in my four door (shitty stock non-premium speakers), but it is amazing now.

      The autoX at Sears Point was pretty darn good. One guy managed to get 45 (yes you read that correctly) runs in. The roadster on 225s was the most tame I've ever managed to get it. It wasn't interested in doing anything but sticking. You guys missed out. The good news is that we are doing another the last Saturday of June.

              Haven't gotten a a code reader, so can't test for any codes. Pops just went and got a fuel pressure tester to test that. I told him we gotta get a code reader, but no one we know has one, nowhere to rent, and don't want to buy one.

              Go to any auto parts store and purchase one. Much cheaper than poking at an unknown problem and throwing parts at it.

              They are cheap and plentiful; cost about a tank of gas or 2 tanks for a nicer one.

              Or get a obd2 wifi adapter on amazon and use it with your smartphone.

                      At least you're flying. I'm going to drive from Sacramento to Huntington Beach in 20 minutes. 450 miles of paying attention.

                          Just swapped ground control onto the eta. Found out there is a bas ball join on the front right control arm ): it drives amazing though. Doesn't feel any stiffer than the hr sport at the top of the travel, but taking turns there is a loooottt less body roll, and it tighten up real fast. I love this eta.
