    Thanks for letting me pick up the OZ's clark! Here is the start of whatever project this turns into.




    After using Mothers wheel cleaner and powerwashing. Very light scrubbing with a microfiber.

      Glad I could help start such a fun project. Those wheels look pretty good after a quick cleaning. I hope you're happy with them.

        I am much happier with them once I washed them off. Still has a fair amount of deposits but they were unbelievably dirty how they came.

            Brad, you should throw them on the e30 and take some pics to show us how they look.

              I will be doing that before I throw out the tires. It probably won't be until the weekend though because I get home from work when it is dark out already.

                    Thanks!

                    Still needs a few things though. Currently has no coolant in it, a leaky fuel pump, and it vomited transmission fluid all over the driveway because I started it up without the oil cooler connected (oops).

                    But all of that can wait for another day. I'm exhausted, and working on that thing is very disgusting.

                      wicked Brad! I am jealous btw, you scored some nice wheels there. I wanted them when I went to pick up the car with Clark. Funny that I have never met you yet, we seem to literally show up at all the same places but different times... ;)

                            weird. You're like a divorced couple with a child. You both see the child, but not each other...

                                Brad, congrats on the wheels man!

                                Does anyone have an Oil Reset Tool? Or any experience tracking down ABS problems? I'm getting a light when I hit bumps. Checked all my wiring and nothing is obviously loose. My next thought is to clean my rings and start replacing sensors. I suspect my slightly soft pedal might be ABS related too. I've bled the hell out of the system and actuated the pump multiple times on gravel roads to bleed any air out...
