    Converted to wheel studs. After staying with OEM bolts for a very long time, it's just easier on a track car with frequent changes...

      Took it a new canyon road I haven't been to, was pretty good. There was a BMW meet into the San Gabriel/Azusa canyons over here in SoCal. I typically just do Angeles Crest Highway, was a good opportunity to check out a new canyon. I need to a get GoPro some sort of action camera to get some video, my dash cam video is crappy.

        Not today but soon. Vanos along with a VAC hub. Valve adjustment. Plugs.

          M3 finally gets a proper setup: Ohlins R&T with corner balance and alignment. Front sway bar end link was jacked up on passenger side so had those replaced as well, and added Vorshlag camber plates. WOW - just incredible the change from my tired Koni yellow / Eibach setup. Also had front wheel studs replaced (been on there ~10 years) and Rogue EVC block-off plate installed as the valve has not been sealing quite right the last couple years. Just super quiet and refined all around now.

          Only put 40 (mostly highway) miles on but the car does everything better - braking is much more composed, I can fly over roads that I would typically slow down for due to the compliance, and even the diff seems more responsive (I swear). Very eager to put the miles on.

            Care to share your ride height?

                  Nice clean engine, mine is all varnished to hell, granted it had 4 previous owners.

                  I had read that cold weather environments can also attribute to varnish and it lived in New York for a while and now in Nebraska.


                  You what are doing in regards to pump>tab clearance?

                    Getting a VAC hub that should address the clearance issue.
