    Update

    3/8/12

    Well I've been busy with school and work and its only about to get worse so I realized I should get cracking on letting everyone know what I've been up to.

    First off - did the cooling system overhaul with my guys at A&L/iND. It got pricey even with their great discounts but it got done which is the important part. I also had them install some Rouge UD pullies. The car doesn't feel much quicker with them but I think after tuning and seeing a dyno it will reveal a hp or 2 pick up over stock from efficiency.

    Funds have been tight, after all that is why I jumped into this ZHP in the first place - to save money. However that being said, I know who I am, I know I want to mod the car, so I left myself some room to get a few things and to save a few things for down the road.


    Interior -


    First you'll notice the navi - which was not my first choice and I'm still not even sure it's working out right now... but I took the plunge on a Dynavin. The functionality it has on paper looked great, the fit and finish looked really good too, the price was a tad much but justifiable for all that it is supposed to do. My unit, however, must be from a bad batch. I installed it and combined it with the OEM relocation kit for the HVAC controls (got a steal from Tischer on that) and it was fairly easy to physically put in but from the minute I turned it on I had problems with the unit. Most of the problems have come with the screen and the iPod function. It's like the unit is freezing when I try to go through playlists to find what I want. Sometimes I do need to turn it on and off, sometimes not. Sometimes my iPod playback starts right up, sometimes I need to unplug and re plug it in. Sometimes the unit shows what song I am listening to, sometimes it shows a song I haven't listened to in 3 years. I am told they are sending me a new unit when it comes in from China - we will see if the problems are fixed by then (by the way I purchased from OTTONavi).





    Next, I did a few more interior items. I changed the gauge faces to the ///M grey ones with the orange/red RPM redline indicators. I like the color and how it matches the silbergrau paint. The downside is at night you see nothing but amber.




    I also got in touch with Coby Wheel and spoke with Mike about 2 items - steering wheel and shift knob - being rewrapped in OEM grey alcantara.
    The results were fantastic and I want to thank Mike for his great communication and more so his awesome work on both pieces.

    The wheel is OEM grey with a dove grey stripe at 12 oclock and ///M tri color stitching.



    The shift knob was wrapped in OEM grey.


    When I am ready for a new shift boot I will be going right back to Mike at Coby Wheel.

    Another item I fixed/upgraded were the interior lighting - the xenons in the car were dull and a few didn't work so I went to bimmian.com and purchased an LED bulb pack. They work well and are pretty bright now - plus they don't get as hot and melt the bulbs into place - had to dremel some of the old ones out.


    The exterior of the car has been left alone thus far. I am in the process of choosing some summer rims but not sure the funds are all there just yet. At this point I'd like to get a set for cheap - recondition them and then also take my 135's and recondition those too (but that doesn't have to be till October or so). I also would like to start saving for an exhaust system which will be a very high priority. Hopefully this summer keeps me busy with paying gigs. I do have a new set of rear window tints to put on when the weather is nice out - switching the 35% rears out to a 20%. The glare I'm getting on the Dynavin is really bad at some times of day going in the right direction. Hopefully (if I keep it) that will help a bit. I wish someone just made a snap in rear window shade like I had on my 135i.


    Tuning is taking place this weekend so I'll try to update on how that all goes. As of now it doesn't look like I'll have a dyno but that should be along shortly.

    Thanks for reading.
