I think she got off lightly. In both respects.

Good stuff. Pulling out the auto brake pedal and installing the manual one is as easy as adding the clutch one if you feel like getting uner there and redoing it.

Clicking increases with car speed or engine speed?

The list above will do. Ray knows is sh*t, so just explain the above to him and he'll see you right. Just buy a new clutch kit as they are not too expensive and it will save you pulling the whole thing apart in a fw months when the secondhand one fails.

Nice car. Crap video.

I'm still not sure where you are measuring your voltage from, but if you are measuring from the pos terminal on the starter to the chassis, and getting voltage, try measring pos terminal on starter to a bare meatal part of the engine (like the lifting point). If you lose voltage then you've forgotten to atach the earth strap from the motor to the chassis and this is your problem.

No

You also need master cyl and clutch lines, fluid reservoir, clutch (buy a kit that includes the release bearing), Gearbox mount/ x-member, new flywheel and pressure plate bolts, spigot bearing. Most of the above you need anyway as they would need replacing from wear. If the box is in good nick it seems like an OK price when compared to the much more common m20 boxes.

When you test for voltage are you putting your multimeter on the neg terminal of the starter or to the chassis?

Since posting this I must revise. Twice - only a problem if you're dating school-age girls or have mates who act like girls (Hi Tower - Beau and Brad, savvy?).

btw Just fyi, full retail, tees are $50 and hoodies are $130.

AFAIK s38 is m88. different designation for the same motor. (Maybe slight differences - but much the same). At least that is the info I have.

One of my g/f's mates owns Halfpast Streetwear. They have some cool stuf and are having a sale. They emailed the brochure to me - these deals are not on their website. I'm getting a couple of the tees and thought some of you may be keen. I can order for you if you like - cash in advance of course. Once it arrives (couple of days from order I'm told) You can pick the clothing up from either Orcon on the shore, or my g/f's place in Henderson, or can courier at your cost. I'm not making any money on this, just sharing the love as I know how hard it can be to get unique threads at a good price. I'm sure you'll agree the prices are pretty good.

Its called paint.

Something a bit different

How about this one. I have seen them on cars and they look good.

Only e36 318ti rear springs will fit.

Now that's a set of headers!

Also to keep in mind: Full mtech I is 6 pieces - Front splitter, 2x side skirts, rear skirt and boot spoiler. Plus original boot spoiler is half rubber, so not as easy to replicate. Full mtech II is 13 pieces for 2 door and 15 for 4-door - front splitter, front bumper cover, rear skirt, rear bumper cover, rear spoiler, 2x side skirts, 2x front guard trim pieces, 2x rear guard pieces, plus a piece for each door. Plus skirts for 2 and four doors are different for both kits as are all the smaller pieces for tech II.

OK, so not 140 at 12 o'clock like in my pic. Damn.

Hey Andrei - Russian spelling... The bumper setup f/l to pre f/l is entirely different both in terms of the look, but also lights and mounting. Once you had both set up and running you could lok into making kits that fit on the other cars - lots more work, but that would be cool. Side skirts are easier as the mtech I (pre f/l) fit on the f/l cars also. mtech II would fit on pre f/l but would look terrible as they would stick out funnily. Good luck - its more work than it sounds, but if you are committed and put the effort in, you'll have a good, saleable product. My advice woul be start with something for the newer cars (as much as we all like e30's) as there is a bigger market, and that market is also more cash-rich. e30 owners are cheap, broke buggers as a general rule.

I agree wholeheartedly with what has been said, but we're a bunch of precious assholes aren' we?

I wish I had the spare time to game. I played Need For Speed (some version or other) on xbox 360 for about an hour on the weekend. I think that's the first gaming I've done all year. (Playing Buzz and Guitar Hero on the piss doesn't count)
