    Oh I know, but I am running out of time to have a car that is safe to drive.

    Also, david, is there still a large or medium helmet around that I can borrow if I end up going?

      Take your car to a shop and have it fixed if time's an issue--one day turnaround ftw.

      There should be, I'm borrowing the old SAE helmets in addition to my own.

        It sounds so easy!


        But expensive...

          Downforce, I'm not sure. I'm tagging along with David's group.

            I'll happily cough up half the price since I wasn't able to get it perfect, and you compensated me very generously. Let me know. Or swing by on Thursday and I'll give it another go on bleeding.

            fwiw: Schomp charged me $120 to do a bleed, and after that, my pedal felt the best it ever has.

              Don't worry about it Roland, we will get it sorted out. If I can find a way to power bleed the ABS it should be good. Do shops use a computer to do that or what?

                The dealer used the GT1 to do mine. Not sure what would be the SOP on doing it with the E30.

                A computer with a carsoft cable can replicate most GT1 functions, the dude in Longmont with the black E36 4 dr has one.

                    Ride along with me on the way down? Also, when can we get together and swap rear shocks?

                        Does anyone have a spare set of HP+ or better pads? I tend to overthink / get paranoid about various things leading up to an event such as this Sunday, and my current paranoia is not having enough pad left on my current HP+ pads, in the front at least. I'd imagine the rears are fine..... Does anyone have a pad I can possibly "borrow" JUST IN CASE I run out of pad on Sunday? My fears will be confirmed or squashed on wed. night or thursday for sure when I can get my car in the air and pull off a wheel to see...

                              there will be another one. A lot of our cars aren't ready yet.
