    Anyone need an impulse sensor/speed sensor?

    I literally, just opened the box and took pictures of this to sell.

    I ordered it from Pelican Parts on Friday, thinking it was the issue with my speedometer not working, and it ended up being my #12 fuse that was blown

    Includes a brand new OEM impulse sensor, and O-ring for sensor.

        Yes this is absolutely true, I didn't even think of that. The shock has some wicked caster, so the more you compress the shock, the farther back (and up) the wheel moves.

              Are you are ordering from turner? They just did 10% off H&R and billys for this month. Their shipping is usually a lot though. I am tempted to get some races as well.

                More drop is not more better.

                Get camber plates rather than e90 drop hats. That way you can adjust your alignment specs so you don't kill tires, and you'll still have a lower stack height than stock stuff if you go with Vorshlag or GC plates.

Without spacers the fronts don't rub unless I go full lock, then they kiss the sway bar. I tried Tim's 20mm spacers with studs and had gobs of clearance, but they were about 5mm too wide. 10mm will be perfect. Going to order H&R's when I order my springs.

                    Until then I'm going to rollin OG like I'm on 20's! Sucka free motha fucka!!





                    My front wheel gap is def not stock. I compared it to two E30's. I'm about 1.5" higher!

                    All I need is FWD conversion and some milk crates (starts at 3:00)!

                        yeah, if you have the money, GC or Vorshlag plates are definitely the better option, but that is $300 vs $20. Jus sayin. At that point, you can get GC coilovers also, they come w/ the camber plates.

                        I paid ~$700 new for my H&R sports + billy sports, add $300 for camber plates you get $1000. For $500 more, have a complete coilover setup. well, just tossin out some comparisons.

                        The only reason I got the E90 drop hats was just for looks, to get rid of a little reverse rake, or the illusion of it anyway, because of the stupid late model rear wheel arches.

                            Here's a good one. Is there such thing as good fast food? I am sick of the places in northeast boulder. I can't find anything good that I can run in, get food to go, and head back to work. Any ideas?

                              Boulder pretty much sucks for cheap food imho. Try Sonic, they make pretty good burgers that don't taste like sticks of butter dipped in cooking oil.
