    Also, Alex can you use the stock power steering system in the e30 to power the z rack? I really wanna do the swap but have my reservations from just ordering a bunch of parts

      Their fries are much better than their burgers.

        I'd be lying if I said I wasn't considering the amount of tracks nearby. I'm also originally from the Bay Area....and have family there. Modding of cars isn't all that important, I'll get by without moar powar. Somehow.

        So fucking pumped right now.
        what is NSF?

          oh yeah, In-N-Out is hands down better than a chic burrito joint.

          You guys in CO need to venture down south and find a taco stand that, at lunch time, has all the trucks with gardening trailers hooked up behind them. That is where you will find good burrito's!

          If your not on a toilet within 2 hours after lunch, then it wasn't good mexican!

              Larks Burger > Smash Burger >>>>>> In and Out Burger

              In and Out is like the Chick-Fil-A of burgers. They don't have freezers, use only fresh ingredients and put their employees through college (that is the only thing they have in common w/ Chick-Fil-A).

              I haven't tried the Transmission stuff in my rack because I am replacing it. Z3 rack is powered by E30 pump, but high pressure line requires bending. Steering knuckle needs to be shortened just like E36 rack. I was thinking about dropping my subframe and replacing my motor mounts too so I don't have to bend the tabs to get the rack off.

              Roland do you mean Redwood? I.E. Virgin America? I have a few friends working there and could be PIC way sooner than elsewhere, but it is a hell of a gamble, poor pay, and tons of red eyes. So I haven't motivated in that direction.

              QUESTION: HOW IMPORTANT IS IT TO LET THE CAB DRY W/ THE WEIGHT ON THE WHEELS? I was going install my new control arms, but my car will be on jack stands for at least another week.

                  No, but I do have a friend who just got on with Virgin America.

                  I was referring to FedEx, their app window was open for a while earlier this year.

                  Pretty important. But you can install the new control arms, and then put the bushing on. Then when you're ready to drop the car, bolt the bushing cups to the body.

                    FedEx would be the shit, but I'm sans degree. I even have the 3 magic bullets they require.

                    I'll wait to put the control arms on. I tried putting the bushings on with the control arms mounted last time and it was impossible.
