Thanks buddy.

Small update:
Got a new sway bar end link thinking that it was a large portion of my suspension rattle I have been hearing a lot lately. Turns out the strut insert in my housing was moving around. Ended up pulling the entire strut out last night (seems to only take 10 minutes anymore) and didnt find a solution until I out it all back together. There is a spacer around the mk2 strut that I figured was the issue since it wasnt helping the movement inside the body, so I added some girth and wrapped it in duct tape. Didnt help a lot but some. Apparently the gland nut that holds the insert in the strut wasnt tight enough, so I tightened the shit out of it and BAM, no more rattle! Also didnt get many pics during that since my phone was dead like always.





Also picked up some 25mm spacers for the front for reall cheap from a local. I had a 15 on it. Wasnt enough
Before spacer pics.








After.

thanks man. Yeah the e34 wasnt doing it for me. missed my old e28 so had to get another.

Been in a pretty down mood lately so what better to bring my hopes up with than a louder car? went with a magnaflow. I knew it wasnt going to fit the way I planned so had to make due. bugged me a little at first but am getting over it. Now the car is 2.25 straight to the muffler. Sounds good to me. not too raspy. more deep. About it for now. Gonna order a bra as soon as I can to cover the chipped paint on the hood.

car got some much needed love of things I have been putting off. One was a running issue which it still has but is much much less now. Narrowed it down to an IAC valve or a AFM. Both ill probably do later on. pulled the plugs and noticed that one side was burnt while the other side was not. Never found a common answer but running rich on the low and and leaning out up top seems like it may be the best answer I have seen which would make sense with an AFM issue. Any other input would be much appreciated.

Replaced the plugs.

GRAYT QWALITY.



pulled the barometric pressure sensor since the cap was gone and it looked like anus.



Also fixed my squeaking left coilover. Turns out my strut insert was crooked from last time I tried to fix it causing the top hat to sit crooked with the spring. That made the spring hit the gland nut and the upper portion of the coil sleeve which flattened like 8 threads. RAD. It came right off thank god.

(the spring wasnt this crooked)





Also removed a collar which would explain why there is one. Got my ride height where I wanted it. So use to taking this thing apart now.






And finally got some actual shots which I am beyond stoked on. My buddy Alex killed it especially for a quick shoot.

I've just read all three of your BM threads, the 1st e28...well wow!! That was immense, possibly the coolest thing I've seen ever. Then the thirty four, was stoopid low...loved it. Then to top it all off, you go and build this thing, epic, epic cars!! Well done sir! You have a new admirer, for your cars of course Keep it up bro...
