What did you do for your ZHP/BMW today?

SHIT.

SHIT SHIT SHIT.

I JUST fixed my suspension... which dried me out, and I come home after class to see a puddle under where my car usually sits overnight. I checked it, and it seems like it's coolant mixed with oil (I have a lot of oil in my splash guard from my VANOS stud leak) It was kind of dry, so I couldn't pick enough of it up to smell it, but it seemed to not have any particular smell.

I really don't know what I'm going to do. I think my thermostat is stuck open as well, as the water temp on my dash is always on the cold side.. no matter what. This is my one and only car and I don't work enough yet because of school to be able to fund a cooling system overhaul. Agh.. :'(

Ugh. Keep us posted Dalton.

Will be finishing up my mirror baseplates and prepping them for paint today at my friend's body shop. The motor baseplates are done and everything test fitted perfectly. Car is coming together and I just found out this afternoon that I will have additional funds soon so I can order a set of rear Michelin Pilot Super Sports for my Style 135's

Charlie, are you going to run your 135's all summer? Or switch back and forth? And what tires do you have on your other wheels?

The Super Sports are incredible! Even noticeable over the Pilot Sports I had before

sorry to hear. hope this turns out to be something minor...crossing my fingers buddy.


i was all set to get my Vanos done until the BMW tech convinced me the cooling system was more important. it was pricey, but glad i got it out of the way...

Channing,

For the Mafia meet I plan to go down with my Style 135s/Michelin Pilot Super Sports and occasionally I will alternate with my Beyern Mesh Wheels w/ Dunlop Direzza DZ101.

Right now I'm rubbing slightly using my Beyerns so after getting my fenders rolled at the meet, I'm guessing that problem will be history
