Taking my Time - Kielan's E46 Build, Round 2.

[Kielan]

Ever thinking about getting these de-chromed? If so, shoot me a PM. I can do it for cheap with shipping included. I can have them fully polished or leave them raw to paint or powder-coat.

All the time, I will shoot you a PM.

There is about 2 inches of play up and down (not side to side), before it's even on the master cylinder. I have no idea why it's like that, but it is. (This is what I have learned this morning just from a quick look at it). I have no idea how to go about fixing it either, as I can't really see any form of adjustment things in there (and as far as I know there aren't any to begin with). Anyone who may know something about this please chime in.

I love that accomplished feeling you get when you do work on your car that you've never done before. Sounds like you're taking good care of it and bringing it back to like-new condition. What's going on with your clutch?

[Kielan]

Updates.

Replaced clutch and transmission, did a valve cover gasket, and intake manifold gasket. LCA bushings, trans mounts, shifter bushing, removed 14 dryer sheets from my blower motor that the PO had put there for whatever reason, still have to rewrap the interior to black, do trim pieces, and paint wheels, but other than that, I've made some great progress having never done a lot of the work like this before, pretty pleased with myself.

By mid August the car will be how I want it before I start making drastic changes.

But I'm pretty pleased with how things are going now.

Now I have to figure out this clutch pedal play issue as well (I thought changing the clutch would fix it, but it didn't, so now looking for new solutions, definitely something mechanical in the clutch pedal assembly itself).

Get us some close ups! Can't see anything from that far away. From what little I can see, it does look gooood.

With the 25mm in the rear 10mm up front. Worry not, wider soon.

That's a 215/35, but it should be similar.
