Get your stuff from FCPEuro in the states if you have a Blaine or Point Roberts shipping address. Everything you purchase has lifetime warranty and they match prices.
Since this is a pic thread here's my old car: 
Which died from an SUV hit at 60km/h: 
I would have still had that car today because it was so dialed in and cheap to maintain if you do most of it yourself.

What maintenance items did you service?
Your favourite mods?
How did your car go to car heaven? | Valve cover gasket (best to do with spark plugs change)
Oil filter housing gasket
Fuel pump will eventually fail and leave you stranded (easy diy best done when your fuel tank near empty)

new 318is E30 project in the driveway. The paint is shot, but it seems to run pretty well.
It will get the full new car purchase clean up and better pics at the weekend.  | |

Looks like it'll be a fun project.
On a side note, LOVE the paint colour on that Tacoma in the background!

It's been a whirlwind two weeks leading up to this past weekend, but we were able to get the 911 running and into the Hagerty Spring Thaw. Honourable mention to CCA-Dave for putting on one heck of an event, even with the surprises.
This about sums it up well - only in the middle of nowhere BC would you be filling up next to a tractor   | |

My car decided to put me into permanent hero mode during this wet drive home. [emoji51] 
I'll check the wheel speed sensors when it's dry out so I'll just have to keep the beast under control. Had a blast in some open turns though and S6 mode with CSL programming is so quick! LOL

Yep. If it ever gives me issues I'll just get it swapped to full manual. So far it's been flawless for the three years I've owned it. Standard North American programming made me want to swap it within the first few months. But after programming to the euro mode, I've felt no rush to manual swap.

hmm maybe ill hitch a quick ride with you sometime if we ever do meet.
I hated the standard SMG programming... wonder if the Euro version would change my mind... (most E46 M3's were SMG... and if I were to run across one...)

Yeah no prob.
Euro CSL programming is night and day. It's like comparing a new two weeks of first time manual driving to an experienced 2 year manual driver.
