Bollocks! Why do you have to do this to me!Quote:

Have slowly begun my conversion to Titan II interior trim. I love it for the contrast with my black interior and clean appearance.

^ looks good! Switching from black cube? How is the condition of your black cube if so?
On topic:
I have gone a little crazy in anticipation of the OG/NB sedan arriving. Within the past few days I have purchased the following:
- Cooling System Overhaul Kit (FCP Euro) including radiator
- TMS Power Pulleys (incl. alternator pulley - didn't have this on my last pulley kit on the coupe, wondering if there's any noticeable difference?)
- TMS CF Strut Bar
- Dinan Air Intake (ECS Tuning has this priced at $256 and claims +11HP/+9TQ so we'll see. I've never bought any Dinan stuff before but the price was right...)
- Coby Alcantara-wrapped ZHP shift knob
- Shark injector (Turner gave this to me for $260 given I bought one from them years ago. The only reason I couldn't transfer the old Shark to the new ZHP is because I could not get power to the old car to uninstall it...boo)
- ///M dead pedal
- ///M door sills
- Apex ARC-8 18x8.5 ET38 / 18x9 ET42 - Race Silver (I feel like the silver will contrast nicely against the OG)
- Rogue Engineering OCTANE SSK (I had the UUC Evo/DSSR in the last car, want to see how the RE kit compares - it is a bit cheaper)
I had to put the brakes on there (no pun intended). I am going to send the car straight into the shop to have all of the above put on so that once I am ready to drive again, the car will be exactly as I want it.
Down the road I will need to get to the VANOS and DISA. Tires are ok atm, as is suspension as PO just put new OEM shocks on.
The car has halogen headlights(!) so no retrofit nonsense needed...will just upgrade the bulbs.
Also need to get some Leatherique for leather treatment. I had Alcantara on the last car so the leather care will be new for me. Gotta take care of that sweet NB interior!
ALSO - I forgot I still have a brand new, unopened Khoalty E46 M-Tech II front bumper for facelift coupes (ZHPs). If anyone needs it let me know. I bought it for the coupe with the intention of replacing the pitted/cracked bumper but never got around to putting it on. I'll list it separately in the parts forum. $250 shipped OBO
Switching from Silver Cube. It's in very rough condition. :(Quote:

Finally removed the CDV! Removed it on my 330xi 6MT a few weeks back and was delighted. Well, I finally got some time and a nice day and got it off my ZHP (which was significantly easier). Took it for a short spin and I LOVE IT! Shifting just works better--no unanticipated jerks or bumps... effort is reliably rewarded with precise response!
The CDV delete made a huge difference, but I still felt like the car and I couldn't get on the same page very often in first gear. Admittedly, I spent 4 years in auto-land, but it was something I never experienced in 7 years with the Mazda.Quote:

Oh, really. I have cdv delete but it still is slower than my hand and foot. Clutch stop helps that much?
