  • Finally was able to work on this a little yesterday instead of my daily. I only got the sun roof seal in but it counts as work=P It made me notice that my sunroof needs to be adjusted quite a bit to sit flush with the roof. I tried installing the seal as tight to the roof as possible so I hope raising the sunroof will make it all sit nice and flush.

    Speaking of my daily, I got sick of riding with everyone to shows for the past few years so I decided to spruce up it a little. I started with a Boa Boa Alcantara interior that I had imported through Kitty. I then added a Renown 130R steering wheel and Rogue Engineering DMS exhaust. Three weeks ago I installed Condor Speed Shop rear subframe and diff bushings. I had already done the Condor FCAB bushings right after I bought the car so now all of the bushings are delrin and it feels nice and tight.

    I had picked up a set of Centerline Fluted Hawks for dirt cheap last fall to throw on as well. I initially bought them as more of a joke but they have grown on me. I was sick of how cookie cutter the e36 scene is anymore so I just had to do something different. Plus you can't say no to cheap 9's and 11's=P I finally fit them to the car last week. I also made the trip down to Jeffersonville, Indiana this past weekend for Euro District and it was amazing. Hands down one of the best organised shows I have ever been to. I look forward to next year. Enough rabbling, here are some pictures from the show and the ride there.

          I believe that's the common feeling haha. Everyone has ***** billets for so long that seeing them look presentable on a car seems blasphemous lol

            • I need to sort out a proper master so I can then make my brake lines, and then I can get the motor in. I just need to start making solid movement on it. I should be able to now that I am caught up on maintenance for the coupe.

                      • never really bothered to read the entire thread because (well you've heard this a bazillion times by now) i'm not a fan of compact.. but massive props for you sir, great build so far. loving the attention to detail and looks of the car.


                        and if you don't mind i'm totally going to steal your "wooden" bbs logo's idea for my own wheels


                        i shouldn't be daily driving this:

                          • Pulled my steering column yesterday to rebuild it. Just waiting on my parts to arrive so I can put it back in all freshened up=)





                            I also finally sourced a master cylinder to use and have ordered all of the brake line that I need to plumb the rest of my brakes. I got bored at work today and shaved off all of the casting marks. I will be painting it to match my engine block when I get home.

                            • I honestly love this build. The attention to detail is amazing. I would love to have the spare time/cash to get my compact up to this caliber!

                              Can't wait to see it done!

                              • Did you buy OEM parts? Is there a set for rebuilding it or did you order part by part?
