Too many projects, but mainly an e28

[xBDIRTY]

Small update, but an important one to get me driving. My Brake fluid reservoir grommets showed up early. Here's a look at how bad they were. Old vs New.

I am so jealous about how awesome the Xb is going to look

Yeah I am really excited for them to get here. I have wanted those wheels for a long time. 6 weeks is the longest I've ever had to wait for something for any of my cars. I also have a couple of other JDM goodies coming for it as well. I'm all about the rare legit pieces that set it apart. Between getting the e28 going and waiting on xB parts, I'm kind of going insane!

Ha ha I know how that can be. Hopefully I can pick up a xb and atleast make it as clean as yours

Thanks, I appreciate the compliment

Woah woah woah, slow your roll tough guy. Did you even ask if I told the buyer it had an oil leak? Yes as a matter of fact I did. It had a spot leak that would come and go and I told him that. It was the only thing wrong with the car. I let him go over every square inch of the car and he made me an offer according to that problem with it. And the comment about the transmission didn't mean anything was wrong with it, it was just personally annoying to me on long trips to be going 65-70 at 4k rpm's in third gear. Not sure how that makes me a piece of shit? and I love my xB even more now because you **** it.

Funniest thing I read all week!

So the previous owner sold this thing to me without the odometer working. What a shady son of a bitch. So I started doing some reading and found out that it's almost a given with these cars. So I got bored this afternoon and the tear apart began.


And sure enough.... These gears look like a bunch of backwoods hillbillies missing some serious teeth.


So it's off to the interwebz to order a new gear set! Sorry to bore everyone with these small updates not including slammage or spark throwing, it will come soon enough, but getting the car in good working order is more important first imo.

I too have to order some odometer gears.

Where are these grommets located exactly? I just replaced the hose from the reservoir to the master and didn't see any grommets.

Looks like a fun project! Did you end up getting vsx110's with hidden hardware for the xB? I don't think I've ever seen a car with them before

Yeah where the reservoir "presses" into the master cylinder, those grommets hold it all in and keep it sealed. I found out they were bad when I was replacing my intake "tube" and dropped my screwdriver down by it and bumped the reservoir and then it started leaking everywhere from the bottom. Glad I discovered it though.

Nah, these are the 2pc welded black label series. Wish I could afford 3pc, but these will do just fine I still have never seen an xB on them so I'm pretty happy about that since most xB's are cookie cutter unless you're able to spend a little

Oh wow, I wasn't even aware they made those! They'll definitely look amazing!

XB looks sweet! I've always wanted a e21. Bronzit brothers! I'm jealous of your nice the paint and interior, Lucky. Keep at it! can't wait to see where you take it.

Thanks man! Yeah other than the front seats being a little haggard and the typical cracked dash, thew interior is in great shape. The paint is okay with the usual ding and scratch here and there but it's hard to be picky with this old of a car. I ordered some fabric to re-upholster my door panels, rear window deck, and trunk lid liner. It should be here this Wednesday. I'm pretty stoked about it Here's a screen shot of the pattern.


I got my fenders rolled this weekend and was able to do a little more work on it..... I hope I don't **** myself for how low I went. Guess we'll find out!


Full car pics up soon, **** the time change and it getting darker sooner
