    simon_c Yea he cleaned them, above and beyond seller for sure.

    elrichmeister yes, but I believe they were his only used set. New BMW is selling them for something ridiculous around $5K

          Got my M3 running again, been 9 months. Gonna feel good to get the airbox and Dixis singing again. The F80 carbon driveshaft is finally going back in.

            Finally got around to posting the results. It was a lot of custom work but it was to be expected for a $800 trunk (plus paint, wiring, etc.) Pretty content overall!

            I still wonder about the brand, it was based on a A9? 09/2003 mold for what it's worth.

                  I really would love to get that DS sorted out one day. Im going to start checking around here if there is anyone who can do the balancing work

                    OE CSL engine harness on the way. Cant wait to clean up the wiring in the engine bay even though the way it was done is OE style.

                      1989 325i. 1 owner. Auto but that won't matter for what I plan for it (saves the M3 from going full racecah)

                        Took the extra time over the holidays to knock out a bunch of small items I had laying around.

                        - Switched out the Redline MTL @ 18k miles for Ravenol 75W-80 MTF-2. Don't remember what Pentosin was like as I haven't had it in the box since before prices skyrocketed, but compared to MTL it's much less crunchy when cold and feels pretty consistent all the way up to operating temperature. Don't expect I'll be changing this stuff for a good while, but time will tell.
                        - Replaced the clutch stop that had disappeared at some point with the anchor bolt solution
                        - Refreshed clutch and brake pedal bushings with AKG, no more lateral slop in either pedal
                        - Bled brakes and clutch
                        - Swapped in the BMW weighted performance knob

                        Combined with recently refreshed shifter linkage parts and the E60 short lever, I'm quite happy with the overall shifting experience now. Diff bushings / rebuild will be the final item in this category sometime in spring, then I should be all done with drivetrain.

                        All my money goes towards maintenance.
