I've now got the cooling system back in order after a close call. I got home from work one night to find a puddle under the rad. Quickly got my jack and stands out to inspect, expecting a leaking rad. Thankfully it was just the expansion tank and the fracture was more obvious and a small jet of...

That's one mighty way of saving some weight. Looks good too.

Bike pump trick was a pretty good idea.

Awesome!

Wow. This is a flash from the past.

Wow. Forgot about that.

LOL at 'you actually drive it'. Can you believe its been 2 years! Probably done 500-1000 miles in it.

Meh. 17.

Cheers, I really like the LED's and they suit it better than I thought they would, Yep, coolant systems on these are prone to failure. I'll be swapping some other bits as well for preventative maintenance whilst there.

Finally sorted out the Xcarlink. It's not perfect by any means, but I can now stream music in the car which was the goal. As it replaces the OEM CD changer in the boot I bought a bogo-spec boot tray for those who don't have CD Changers. (Genuine part of course) I've been mega busy...

Re: E36 Track Day Hack (v2) Actually some really interesting information there. Nice to know what the differences are between the bunch.

Which unit is that you've gone for? I saw a couple of days ago that Dynavin have brought out the N6, which had me tempted until I saw the price.

Sweet! I'll bare that in mind. Really tempted to get a retrim on mine its in perfect condition but would like some alcantara or perforated leather.

Nice upgrade! Couple of quick questions, on your Compact who retrimed the wheel? Looks ace. What did you use on the shadowline as mine has some weird oily texture that nobody can get off :(

That.

When you're next out, I'll be interested to see what your clutch is like now.

I'm in. 1. Eddie. 2. JamesBryan 3. Jon.G 4. 5.

The car came with a Nokia hands free kit, which I've never intended to use as I don't take calls in the car. So tonight decided to rip that out, pretty happy that its not been spliced into anything and its out as a whole. image Partly the reason for taking this out is because I bought...

As I mentioned above, I had the car booked in with Matt at Magic detail for a full correction. Mighty impressed with the results. Whilst with Matt the wheels were sent to The Wheel Specialist in Manchester to have the wheels refurbished. Matt added a new 330Ci bootlid badge for me, whilst...

I think he's worried that it'll s**t itself when we're at the ring later in the year. If anyone should worry its the guy with the auto 'box.

Need a side-on stance shot. <-- Like mine ;)

Such awesome news, you forgot to mention about replacing your gaskets and the Y-pipe for the exhaust ;) Everything has finally come together.

Oh yeah, It's just because it matches the standard pedals.

Have you fitted that footrest yet?

So yeah, It runs.... http://vimeo.com/95646197

These came this week in prep for the full correction and wheel refurb in a few weeks. All genuine parts, of course. 4x Wheel badges 4x M sport badges 4x TPMS valves 2x TPMS modules 330Ci bootlid badge Jacking point cover Genuinely have no idea why I was missing a jacking point, but thats...

Awesome!

As far as I'm aware the ICV was bought as working. Didn't actually come with the engine and ancillaries.

Never been so excited to hear a car 'nearly' start before. Shame we didn't get a video but I'm really happy it has at least started now. I'll be a little gutted when this is 'finished' as I'll have nothing to do.

Ends tomorrow morning, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131176089571?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
