Upgraded from the 650GW to the 650S

- no real difference except for a few more software based options.

I was finally able to order my Old Man Emu springs, as well as the rest of the parts to refresh the front suspension in my Jeep (strut mounts, upper control arm bushings, ball joints, and spring isolators all around), and new brake rotors. That should bring it up to a decent height (currently sagged 1" in the front) and reduce some of the floaty feeling on the highway.

Was gonna go to lordco and buy a new boost coupler and t bolt clamps. Lordco only stock Vibrant couplers and they are expensive. I decided to be smart this time and order from silicone intakes. I ordered 2 new couplers and 6 t bolt clamps for the price of 1 coupler from lordco. I can live with a tiny boost leak for a couple more weeks.

I now buy all clamps from Green Line. They also have those fancy T bolt looking ones and are extremely good value for local. The quality of the basic hose clamps blows Lordco clamps out of the water and are even cheaper.

Installed Alpine double din. Made stock speakers half decent until I can save up again to replace them.

Old Man Emu springs are in hand, everything else has cleared customs and should be here in a few days. Then the fun begins.

Have spent too much time on the road for work sitting on my computer staring at car parts, pulled the trigger on a GTS style carbon front lip and and a new set of shoes, very excited for spring to come :awwyeah:

adjust the lighting a bit and it'd look like a press release photo of the ML interior from the 90's

Ordered new rubber for wheels that should be showing up this week, got a good price on the brand new Conti extreme contact sport from 1010tires, excited to see how they compare to PSS, reviews have been good so far from what I've read.

Looks almost identical to the PSS

Bought two chinese catch cans on eBay. Super impressed with their quality.

Those look really nice, and actually functional. Where'd you get them?

hud 91gt 06-09-2017 07:02 PM

eBay. I'll have to dig out the seller. I think I searched E92 catch can.

It looks like the BMS oil catch can that I have for my E82

I can open mine to see if they look similar inside too

hud 91gt 06-11-2017 04:48 PM

Googled it. Same thing just 1/3 the price. Nice.
