So this summer I finally got around to doing some major mods and maintenance items on my car that weren't possible in the past. I've owned the car, a 2005 silbergrau ZHP sedan, since 2011 and I've put about 23k miles on it.

Prior to this I have installed an AFE intake and a TSE-3 exhaust

106,500:Cooling system refresh; waterpump, thermostat, ET, hoses
106,500:Belts and Pulleys
106,500:BC Racing coilovers installed along with AKG street FCAB, RTAB, and RSM
106,500:BBS CH 18x8.5 et35 F and 18x10 et40 R with 235/40 and 255/35 respectively
106,500:Lower intake boot replaced and AFE Filter oiled, ICV and DISA inspected and cleaned
106,500:Fuel Filter
106,500:Oil change with Mobil 1 0w-40
106,500:Fenders rolled and pulled a bit, fender liner and bumper studs trimmed

Pics to come

It does. BTW, was that an ECS plug? I heard they break more easily (or was that the old ones)?

No I'm pretty sure it was oem unless the PO changed it.

113,500:Vanos unit replaced with Dr. Vanos and VCG replaced, Oil level sensor replaced, diff fluid changed with Redline 75w-90

My OFHG is leaking now -____- so I'm gonna replace that along with the CCV in August. Also PS fluid needs to be changed, so that'll probably happen next week. Sometime a couple months ago I put in yellow fogs and lamin-x when one of my fog lights went out and installed a Josh Avery Diffuser.

115,800: PS fluid changed with Redline ATF
117,000: CVV and OFHG replaced, fresh Mobil 1 0W-40
Diffuser's off for the time being, I was scraping everywhere and damn near tore my bumper off

This weekend the DISA's getting a new Oring and I'm installing a new bushing in the RSM

Yeah I did! It wasn't too bad because I was doing the OFHG at the same time so I had more room, but it was definitely a bitch getting the new hoses on. I just broke the old ones on their way out and then had to do some aggressive research on how to get the new ones on. But it runs great now.
