For anyone interested on some updates on the car:
I am still waiting on the hub from ecs tuning :( but have done some stuff in the interim..which consist of:
-Oil Change
-Valve Adjustment
-Antenna Delete
-Bought a new valence/i lip from a user on here (will look for the username) for temporary cosmetics.
-Welded broken parts of the recaros
Now onto the current issues..
So, one night, like the fucking idiot that I am I was working on the car and left the keys in the ignition...luckily no one decided to steal it or if they tried they were unable to because the battery was dead. I had a spare bosch battery from my e39 hanging around so I threw that on and started her up. However, the next day it was dead once again. I left it dead for a while because I haven't been driving it due to lack of hub and would jump it every few days just to keep everything "fresh" :???:
Now, I reinstalled the battery that came with it, let it charge for a while, and then i turned the car on and let it idle for about 30 minutes. That was two days ago. And today, I went to turn the car on and the battery was flat. Flat meaning no cluster lights or anything. Jumped it once again for the sake of turning it on but I'm really puzzled with this one..I had battery drain on my e39 and that was a disaster and this is the last thing I want right now.
So, if any of you could kindly point me in any direction for common electrical malfunctions that would cause this so I can trouble shoot it.. please let me know.

Now you have a hole in your car.
I thought it was an eS air dam?
Also, didn't you say/tell me you were messing with the stereo? Or something like that? You might want to go back and check your wiring on that. Did it have it when you first bought the car? Or was it an after the fact thing?

no i don't. i read somewhere that it is possible to just remove the bumper shocks from the car with the bumper still attached so i am trying to figure out how to do that.
i also realized why the PO drilled into the bumper to do the tuck...he couldn't get the bumper off lol looks like this will have to wait until I do my euro swap and can just figure out a way to get it off (with force) lol
also, today i bought a new fan clutch, windshield washer pump, and oil pressure switch in hoping that will turn my oil pres. light off...
i just got a job so i should be able to get the ball rolling on finally doing all of the maintenance this car needs and then i can focus on cosmetics

Yank the bumpers out, this will show you what needs to be removed. I have no idea what Im looking at in the pics. Also if you can pull the trim that goes over the bumper, that also helps. IIRC its like 8 bolts or somethingSimon

Also, as a tip for getting it back on, put the shocks onto the car first, then bolt the bumper to them. Took me hours trying to put the shocks and bumper back on at the same time, the night before the E30 PicnicLast edited by NMusolino; 08-02-2014, 07:30 PM.sigpic
