Inspected VANOS exhaust cam hub tabs. Not broken!
Also switched to 6 new NGK plugs. Already had the same NGK plugs in there and they were in pretty good shape. Replaced them anyway.
Sprayed lube on my coupler but sound is persisting.
Also, I think I've closed in on what I want to do this summer for a project (gonna have 4 months off as I transfer to UC Davis). Pretty much decided I'm gonna sell the M3 and buy a sedan. Either black, silver gray, white, or Imola if it's a ZHP. Maybe another color if I can't pass it up, but that's what I want. Then, I'm going to commit the most atrocious thing thinkable and swap in an S54 with an SMG. Sorry. Much easier to find SMG powerplants and complete swaps from verts, and I'm itching for something different. It makes me wish I bought that Phoenix Yellow M3 instead, but eh, no looking back now. Plus, I want me some CSL software. Also, the sedan looks far better than the M3. That's my personal opinion. My ZHP looked far better than the M.
In the market for an E90 M3
Good work Dario!
My M3 I just bought is a SMG with the CSL SMG software from Frank Smith at Tuning Techs and it's Awesome!

Hey man at the end of the day you gotta do you. I like the passion, and I hope you get it done! Cool process to watch take place! I like coupes, but IMO sedans look better as well! Good luck!
I think it's time to get back into a zhp. I prefer the looks of a sedan better then the m3 as well.

Dario if you swap a S54 into a touring I'll buy it when you're ready to part with it I'll probably be interested in the sedan swap as well. I go back and forth with what I want and I would love a s54 ZHP but then I see the m3 lines with csl trunk and change my mind. I definitely like the four doors and lines of the sedan more but the csl trunk on a coupe is
