        Nothing that shorter tires and some M3 springs wont fix. I am going to have to look into that Z3 rack though.

            what kind of speeds are you guys talking about? Above 120 mine starts to float about a little bit. definitely curious as to some easy fixes since i've already got some sticky tires and new suspension.

              I think he's talking more about old suspension woes.

              IronJoe. I'm either heading up tonight and staying anywhere between Centralia and Seattle or making a early dash tomorrow. Either way, I have to be in Bellingham just after noon.

                  Did you leave your gas door flap open? That one always make me wonder into the next lane.

                    I'd like to wholly attribute it to no font valance. I only did it once, but I just didn't feel confident enough to keep it up.

                    I actually had to break my gas flap open with a screwdriver. The stupid little rod that locks it closed locked it while I was in dire need of fuel. Didn't damage the body cosmetically but I did feel horrible prying the hell out of it.

                              Ignition switch ~ alternator ~ starter ~ cluster...it's all f*cking electrical shit, but Keith has been helping me sort it out. Finally got the car to the point that I just need to figure out why my Alternator won't charge my battery.

                              It's somewhere in the wiring, because it didn't work, than it worked when I installed my cluster, but now with the cluster in. No damn charging :curse:

                              Instead of 12.14v w/ my car on I want to see 13v or 14v and I can finally go test him.

                              Thanks for the switch though

                                The vert made it up with no problems. Nice and smooth driving the whole way. Great gas mileage.
