maxed out the front coils, waiting on the springs to settle a bit more
more low they said, it'll be fun they said
too much poke, shredding tire at every turn and every slight road imperfection :heckno:
alignment needed badly

dared3vil0 03-24-2014 08:46 PM

Looks good. :badpokerface:

J.C 03-24-2014 08:50 PM

took it for a drive around and it hurt lol
i could hear it rubbing every 10 seconds and i could smell the tire being shredded up

dared3vil0 03-24-2014 08:58 PM

Going to raise it back up?

jtrinh 03-24-2014 08:59 PM

Give your fenders a pull! Then tuck some tire :thumbsup:

J.C 03-24-2014 09:06 PM

i'll get an alignment to dial in some more camber first, if that fails i'll do a roll and pull :alonehappy:

Bought front brake pads. Going to change it tommorow morning in the street like a true broke ass would. I've never changed my brakes before but I've tried twice and gave up after stripping the nuts. But today I'm seriously determined to do it right this time. The shimming is driving me crazy!

meme405 03-24-2014 09:59 PM

Struggled with my weapon R PS reservoir for like 4 hours. Eventually I gave up, painted the OEM one black and called it a day.

Will have to fabricate a bracket and partially modify the Weapon R before I attempt again.

Good luck! Just be careful eh, I had my car raised on the curb finishing an oil change and my neighbour almost ran over my leg

I hate to ask... But what did you buy this time? :concentrate:

KingKaze 03-25-2014 10:36 AM

Changed the shift boot to the jdm black with red stitching so far, debating recaro seats.

westopher 03-25-2014 04:19 PM

Replaced all the bulbs in my gauge cluster. What a fucking hassle. I should have taken my steering wheel off, but managed without. Although not without some hand cramps.
Took out my sunfaded parcel shelf and resprayed it black with duplicolour black fabric spray.

I recall taking out my gauge cluster on the E36 M3 to replace some bulbs as well.

Yes, it was a pain in the ass and felt that it would have been easier to take off the steering wheel. But after a second and third time, it was much easier. Practice makes perfect. :badpokerface:
