One day, you might see me at My Strange Addiction… just bought a 3rd E46 M3…
It has a blown engine, timing chain snapped due to VANOS problem, found oil pump « bearing » pieces jammed on chain tensionner…
I have a spare engine completely rebuilt that was supposed to be for my E30 but will go in this one!2 PhotosLast edited by Gt4; 05-26-2023, 04:44 PM.GT4 Composites

Bought a 100k mile 2003.5 to build my pops a track car to go along with my E92! So excited to start building. Headers, all the bushings, Custom/MCS coils, RBs, Beisan vanos, AP Essex kit, Sparco Grids, SMG relocation kit (until CAE shifter setup goes in) and a million other small parts piling up in my garage. Can't wait!

This was actually last week. Stainless steel brake lines, bled brakes and clutch, RTABs and FCABs all in prep for Autocross yesterday. Also had new PS4S installed on all 4 corners and alignment. First time Autocrossing and I'm hooked. Need to get some new brake pads, but nothing else at this point.
Fall project includes full cooling system refresh, transmission/motor mounts, ofhg, thermostat, water pump, belts and tensioner. Open to suggestions on other maintenance "while I'm in there". Car has 66k mi and fluids have been done along with valve adjustment, plugs and valve cover gasket.
