    Neglecting at it's Finest (plus new unrelated update!)

    SHAME ON ME

    The whole idle situation has really bummed me out as I still haven't been able to diagnose the issue. I've tried a few things, but ultimately I've sorta neglected the car which makes me feel kinda bad . I've gained some inspiration these past few days and I gotta make sure I don't let the car reach a point where it's too far gone. Even if I don't get it running and driving in great shape, I will get some shit done this upcoming weekend.

    THE NEW DAILY!
    In other news, I finally picked up a new daily! Now I know you BMW guys may not be the happiest about this, but I'm sure everyone will appreciate this fine piece of machinery. I know this is kinda unrelated to the build; however, I thought you guys wouldn't mind. Enough with the talking, lets get into some pics!















    So... yea, it's a 2012 C63 AMG Edition 1 . Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but I read somewhere that they only made 60 of these sedans for the US market. I only made this post cause I'm super excited about it and I thought I would share my excitement with you guys as my friends don't really share the same enthusiasm about cars as I do. Anyways that's all for now, next post we will get back to our regularly, not so scheduled, e30 content. Let me know if you guys wanna see more of this thing, I don't plan on doing much with it but I can keep you guys updated on what gets done. I should have some e30 content by next week even if its something very small.

      Etas have a separate module that controls idle called the ICM. Also, the fact that it only runs like crap after it warms up narrows you down to the 02 sensor, coolant temp sensor, or ICM.

            the new C class coupe is absolutely bloody beautiful! just the shape and the lines, I would honestly consider it if they was in my price range!
