Sounds like something I want to experience at least once in my life.

Dude, all brake related fluids burn. You alright?

A direct stream of brake cleaner in the eye does not feel good, felt first like fire. Then like someone was taking a set of burning tongs and pulling my eyeball out

Can't be any worse than gas. I've done that a few times.

Nah, the B5 never really did because when it was giving me problems like your car it was when I had my license suspended. For real though my B5 was reliable as fuck, I miss that thing.

The C5 is in the shop.

What's wrong?

I had that same experience when I did my fuel filter, with some gas. Not fun.

Your life is not complete without it.

Yeah my garage is 200 ft away from my house but luckily I had a bottle of water out there to flush right away

Wayyyyyyyy worse, gas is like putting water in your eye compared to this.

The same shit that's been wrong with it since I bought it in January.

CEL and power steering pump. I'm getting the rear brakes done while it's in there since I didn't get them finished with my buddy, I think a caliper might be frozen. It's getting a few mounts replaced as well, should be perfect when I pick it up in a few days.

Man, you people with money to take your cars to shops...

[NickBroderick]

I wish I had money, I have a very helpful father who I'm extremely grateful for. I bought the parts, he's helping with the labor. I pay him back over the next couple months.

[FunfGang]

Well that's definately helpful, wish I had a shop to work in :/ I've swapped out engines, and transmissions in my car on the side of a tiny neighborhood road ahahah.

A shop with a lift is my dream.


Also, car is almost done, it's pretty surreal.

[NickBroderick]

That's pretty sick, I wish I could say I've done the same. I can't wait to see e30 videos.

I don't have any tools or anything here in PA, and my buddy who had a house where we could work on our cars has since moved. Only other option is a shop!

[FunfGang]

True dat, I never would have been able to do this without my best friend, his lending me tools, helping me out, giving me a garage for the first few months hahah. I have a few screw drivers, an adjustable wrench and 2 jackstands.

[NickBroderick]

Lmao, sounds like me. Only you know what you're doing!

[FunfGang]

Me? Know what I'm doing?

[NickBroderick]

Motherfucker you put an engine from one car in to a completely different car. Suck my balls, all I can do is take wheels from one german car maker and put them on another german car.

Hahahahahaha, I'm sigging part of that.


But seriously, this whole build has just been a HUGE learning experience for me, which is why it's taken so long.
