Got a chance to properly test out my camera + DIY headrest mount. Had to drive an hour to the infamous "Forks of the Credit" road here in Ontario. Makes me appreciate Cali for their nice roads, when I was living in Mountain View I would only have to drive 5-10 minutes before encountering the twisties (Page Mill Road).
Camera mount worked well, footage was quite stable even with image stabilization off. Headed to the track this Monday so I'm quite eager to get some good footage!

Installed the BlueBus in the 330 and the m3. Exactly what this car needed. Sound quality is fantastic, works beautifully. Thanks to Ted for developing it.
Decided to max out the front camber for my lapping day tomorrow, to avoid positive camber wear on the tire, and for a bit more grip in the corners. Not sure how much I can trust my phone + piece of wood as a straight-edge, but I gained 1.8 deg neg camber on the driver's side, and 2.0 deg on the passenger's. Marked the old position with a sharpie so I can easily revert back:

After:
My son installed a new alternator in my ZHP, his first "major" fix, and then he dressed (ballast, ignitor, Xenon bulb) and installed a new right-side headlight (left was replaced with a new one last year after it was hit while parked).
Replaced my broken stock rear speakers with used Harman Kardon speakers from a junk yard car. Sounds much better. Even better I only paid $10 a piece for the speakers and the HK speaker covers. So I spent a total $30 for three of them. One more and I can swap out the front door speakers too.
Top is the replacement speaker. Bottom is the original speaker that was in the car.
