How much sludge came out with the engine flush? Were you able to DIY or did you have it done somewhere? I noticed a lot of build up and was wanting to do a flush.

Did the oil pan gasket and changed trans fluid, since I was in there. Turns out my motor mounts were shot. Driver's side was sheared clean off. Upgraded to M3 mounts. Mmm
I measured the motor...
It feels like a rubber boot. I'm using stock air box with K&N drop in filter. Guess I'll try cleaning it today but it doesn't look too dirty. Hans said he's going to help get me a new boot. It's the...
Turns out I'm making too much boost! The intake boot has been collapsing under the suction and creates a vacuum leak. I can feel when this happens and cel goes off every time. Hopefully ESS has a...
Decided to dip my rims. Got a bit carried away with the clear coat but otherwise it looks good. this was just to figure out if I like them in Black. Adding powder coat to my to do list.

Finished putting the ESS TS2 on today and painted lower mesh grill while I had the bumper off.

Installed the rest of interior trim pieces today. Took em off to have the pillars wrapped in Alcantara. Forgot the pics... Test fit the TS2 to the spare motor and am getting close to install. Should...
Fuel pump decided it needed to be replaced on my way to work today. Luckily I was close enough to baby it back. It died at the bottom of the driveway. Lol judging by the crimp style connector it...
Ok good to know. Seems like the valve stems were coated in oil residue but only towards the top. The actual valves/seals look clean. I also picked up a 1,000lb engine stand from harbor freight, now I...
Changed out my failing starter with a spare I got with a used motor. While I was in there I cleaned out the TB and IAC. Took about 5.5 hours of labor but saved a pretty penny by going DIY. Now for a...
How much did it cost to fix the rim? I have a few rims with similar curb rash i'd like to get fixed in the spring.
Oh and definitely get a new tire soon pls. I'd trust the spare tire more than I'd...
Heard a clunking going over bumps in the road on my way home Friday so Saturday I find this.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170118/ba00ea0ac8639cd8bd0bfcb6f67a1772.jpg

Do you still have the center dash black cube trim piece? If it's in good condition I'd be interested in taking it off your hands.

Placed bid on a used ZHP engine on eBay. $900 ain't bad, right?

Did the 02pilot mod and replaced a few vacuum lines while I was under there. Also picked up a new shifter knobhttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161030/8bee3fb979afcd4db8b7171663365cf6.jpg

Replaced the busted rear shelf with a fresh pair from a junk yard in San Diego. No more rattle and much more economical than the alternative

I just replaced the whole thing, couldn't be bothered with drilling, cutting and pressing. Got them for $75 each from fcpeuro since they're a mafia affiliate. Part numbers are 311078368621 and...
Great thanks Johns!

Replaced the worn AKG FCAB with Z4M. After the test drive I concluded this was indeed the cause of the clunk on braking.

I'm not so much worried about the bearing going out since I can hear that and replace relatively quickly in my driveway. My bigger concern is the plastic impeller in a cooling system which routinely...
Luckily that's an easy fix. Get the one with metal impeller if you can get your hands on one.

Just got my car back from Indy last night. Oil changed with mos2, brake fluid refresh and...
Dropped the ZHP off to investigate oil leak further. Just had CCV replaced with cold weather version. He mentioned a MOS additive? We shall see. Also rear calipers seemed loose since they clunk when...
