Thanks John... I'm really excite thinking about what Kpro got me... trying not to think about it...:grooving
I will wash my car...........tomorrow! We are still in melt-mode up here.
Ok Kpro's wheels are definitley bad-ass on my ZHP! They seem to be the exact same offset as the style 135s. Amasingly, the stock BMW TMPS sensors work with my Hella system so I'm good to go.
The only thing I need now are spacers... It's much more obvious with these wheels for some reason.
BTW I finally identified these... they are Breyton Race GTR-S
Here are some pics... haven't gotten around to washing the car yet.

I can feel it in me pluuuuuums.
I really like those rob! Looks great.
Washed the Honda because if it rains tomorrow it can stay in the garage, I have to drive the BMW to work tho... I did take the wash mit and get the bird crap off of her real quick tho... I'll wash her at work tomorrow if its not raining...
Got my self into a whole heap of trouble.
Started the day thinking I would be able to swap out some vacuum lines from beneath the manifold. I planned to maybe take two hours to do this. So I start off pretty strong going through the intake tract and pulling the DISA, ICV, TB and prepare to gain access to back side of the manifold. I then pulled the hoses for the CCV...and wouldn't you know it, that motherfucker has peanut butter all up in it.

And to make matters worse, I couldn't reach the lower vac line and I had to pull the manifold. So I did a quick tear down and had the mani off in 2 hours (Checking on the dog every 15 minutes).

And tomorrow is Sunday! Fudge! But I've got a lot to do to the car, as far as doing my management swap, which requires rewiring my harness to accept the new pin outs of the MS43 DME and swapping in an entire MS43 harness. My month is about to get crazy.
My list of parts to order:
Cold Climate Crankcase Ventilation system
Manifold gaskets
Power steering pump reservoir and hoses
ATF DEX III
random nuts and bolts
Lower intake boot and Clips
wiper blades
Mtech 2 front fender wells
Mtech 2 brake ducts
Mtech 2 lower mesh
ZHP control arms
ZHP steering rack from the rackdoctor.com
Outer tie rods
The only good thing to come from this is that I don't have to bust my ass to do the rest of the maintenance...especially the CCVV - this will be cake with the manifold off.
Have a great weekend, I'm getting a freaking beer.

Great work Justin. Plan to clean up the crankcase?

Well I am going to try. The last time I had it off, I didn't have much time to clean up the gunk and road grime. Hopefully tomorrow will be available for working on the headers and labeling the current harness and comparing it to the new harness so I can make a quick(er) install.
I opened the junction box and was surprised to see how it is all laid out. It's just a mess of spaghetti with little holes for the tentacles to come out. I'm going to find that making the harness for the pedal is going to be the toughest. Everything else should just fall into place.
Oh, and I fucked up and bent my fuel rail slightly trying to remove it from the manifold. Done it three times and this time I bent it. Has me scared, but I'm not too concerned about it since there are four screws holding it tightly to the manifold.
Deuces.
