My sister had one wrapped around the supply hose on her 2.2 Vtec, assume it was put on in Japan, took it off when doing a service a little while ago, made no difference apparently, i sopose you can get cheap ones that don't work and expensive ones that don't work and expensive ones that do?

Pull the motor back out and you'll have it done in no time, or just take it somewhere else, euro specialist over the road from Jeff Grey.

Took my Schnitzer spoiler off when i first purchased mine, completely changes the look in a bad way, they need it when doing 250kph anyway Useless fact of the day, any spoiler on the back of a car comes into play at speeds exceeding 160kph, if the spoiler is big enough that is. Again, car looks great, awsome colour. Edit: I hate it how the coolant bottles always go orangy yellow after time, might replace mine when i do the coolant.

That's the second project, but supercharged Correct, man bench always gets consulted first.Forgot to mention, tool box goes on top of the bench, beer fridge goes in its place, the white box in some of the photos have my vice and grinder ready for mounting when complete, will put a pic up when finished.

Ha cheers guys, hopefully will source a bench top today, got held up yesterday, yes the garage is extremely small, now you can all see what i was dealing with when taking the subframe out of the 3, just jacking it up was a small mission. I have two tiles at the front of the garage that the front wheels drive up on when the car is in, or i just park outside and push it in, whoever said M cars are light cars have clearly never pushed one. Woops, missed that tool out, just a hand saw.The most important tool in that picture is the green bottle sitting on the ground, it was afternoon of course

Well the first project for my two weeks unemployment is nearly complete, for a while have been wanting a work bench for the garage, have had one in the other places I've lived and used them quite a bit. So bought the wood yesterday and went to work this morning: Mock up of where it'll go. The only tools that were required. Snug fit, obviously removal of the car before work can be done at the bench. Sleeping bag can still be fitted. Just have to get the bench top and bottom shelf, that can be tomorrows job.

That's the thing, you would love to drive it everyday but just couldn't, fear of sun exposure, rain, dirt etc

Pretty standard really, you don't know what's been loosened, tightened, if you accepted a job like that you would have to go over every bit of the motor which would take a lot of time.And the fact that the motor is in unknown condition to start with.

Wheels are gonna look good. Shame about the wiring issues, just not enough hours in a day huh.

Agree with you Nick, painted diffusers body colour don't go down well. I repainted my front lip as it had a few stone chips etc, two coats of gloss black and 18 coats of clear Came up real well. In saying that, the blue looks ok but black just makes it stand out.

Very cheap too, ultimate car!

Or the rear. Car looks good man, i think the front lip would proberly look better black, do you have a front shot?

Know what you mean, yellow on some cars doesn't look very good, couldn't imagine mine being any other colour now. A bit too low i think, need the guards flared a wee bit. The wheels are 18x8.5 i think?

Dude, he's trying to sell the car. If anyone is interested maybe a phone call will be best.

Limiters were designed not to blow motors, not to be sat on.

Straight out of the garage three weeks ago, sitting on Bilstein adjustable shocks and Tein springs in the front and Bilstein adjustable bottom hat, motorsport springs and Schnitzer damper shocks in the rear.

The paint is immaculate!

S50 E30 wagon would be tits. First round these ways.

Well as of 5:01 this afternoon i have become unemployed First time ever. Before that i was at school. However i might get some stuff done at home now, gotta build my work bench for the garage so that's all good, will be living off my holiday pay so won't starve to death

Yeah do that, start next month though. Ah, ya soft, they're easy. Ha will take good care of them.

Cheers guys. Ha, was getting them up to speed when they offered the position. New crown wheel, still drives fine but just a tad noisey. Will be looking into soon, as for now no driving it, don't want to make it worst.

I didn't mind working on Peugeots, quite easy really. Yes the discount is an added bonus. Thanks i think? Ha wouldn't want to drop crumbs.

Did you get a quote on price of repair or are you gonna attempt it?

That is awesomeness!

Looks great, absolutely awsome!
