    I think I reached  a turning point on the race car project today… started bolting things BACK TOGETHER!!

    ”5-lug E36 Ti rear end is a straight bolt in” says the internet, my arse say I. After much swapping of CV joints and axles I finally seem to have a pair of 5 stud trailing arms that fit with my medium case diff, phew!

    Well it is…. If you retain the ti small case diff and axles. I was also  caught out whilst adding a medium case into a compact and had to flog some e30 rear axles off @Southerner. Atleast you would of had some already!

    @euroriffic: iInteresting, I thought the fronts (or was it the rears?) were NLA, are they genuine?

    Considered them for mine some years back but decided against (partially because of cost). I like the M colour weave in recent M cars but am advised that it's illegal to re-wind seatbelts and I'd need to buy complete units (which of course won't fit an older car).

    Are genuine, from schmiedmann. Sounds like the front left in nla. Ecs had it listed as nla, but schmeidmann  had a 4 day wait on them.  So after some sneaky planning to get out of paying duty, and two lots of shipping, were all sent at the same time anyway, which I was worried about, but didn’t get caught with $420 in duty. But were still a cool $2100 landed, so yea, not cheap. 

     


  3. Finally got around to replacing the ugly blue-lit Sony head unit for the factory one in the m3. Had to track down another factory stereo plug first since it was removed when the previous owner had them swapped.

    also added a Bluetooth receiver that plugs into the CD stacker input, so brings it into the modern age while still looking factory. Took a while to track one down as most are for the CD43 or newer. 
    was from maakbaas.com if anyone’s interested

  4. I’m still using it with a vpn. Mostly for roadkill, hot rod garage and dirt everyday. 
    will check out the new top gear at some point. 
    and good to have the hundred other car shows that are on discovery turbo, and Supercars, and just about every other racing series and all the documentaries and what not. Just need more time to watch it all
