It's been a while since I've updated this. Had the car roughly a year now and done just shy of 7k at an average MPG of 21.7. Yeah it's a bit thirsty. Anyway, I've done some bits over the past few months which have included replacing the PAS pump, PAS Fluid bottle and both aux and air con...

Don't think he's decided on the exhaust anyway as the exhaust manifold will need to be modified to fit around the steering linkage.

In short, he's got a M20 to go in. Same as yours!

Get yourself some streamline carbon thumb grips, I loved mine!

There are a few threads on Turbines, but I'll post my non-rs again.

Someone had put the buckets inside each other, whilst damp. They were stuck together and broke them both trying to get them apart.

Just a quickie, I broke BOTH my CG buckets today, and want the same or similar. Whats best? I believe they were 5 Gallon buckets (US).

Pretty sure it does, I don't have a 182 any more so any check. Just make sure your AC is off and see of the fan is off.

I change my mind way to often but I need to get an E30 325i next, or i'll never buy one. Hopefully early next year, but I'll see what happens.

I've lost a lot of interest in the E46. It's a bit boring, and nearly 12 years old. I need new paint!

Looks good, I still need to order some 10mm's for the rear. I've given up with it recently, not cleaned it in nearly 2 months.

I used this for my HSD's, http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_201627_langId_-1_categoryId_165742 Just spray it on the threads and wipe off shortly after. Probably exactly the same as what James linked but more expensive.

That looks fantastic! Good work.

Good to see my old Trophy out there. Shame I couldn't get the day off, really gutted now.

I really want an Imp now!

Had 4 wheel alignment done this morning by Drury Lane Services, they did a great job. Took a bit longer than I was thinking but thats down to the design of the camber plates on the HSDs. Drove like a bag of crap in comparison to now! Its fantastic. Looks like I've only got a tiny rubbing now...

Yeah that's was what i was talking about. From what I've seen it's just the inner lip that's rolled, so you'd never ever see it. Not really sure why its down do the paint, I would have though it was down to how much was being rolled, ie the depth of the inner lip, the deeper the lip the more...

I'm sure these guys will know what they're doing and will not remove paint. http://www.archenemy.co.uk/ TBF, I know I've lost paint from the inside lip now anyway, as I checked at weekend. As long as its rolled, and doesn't rub, I can bilthamber it and then seal it. Booked in for 4 wheel...

Cookson, as Rob said really. I could, but theres no point when its being done at weekend. Rear rubs a fair bit now. Con's of running 20mm spacers on the rear. Undecided on what to do about it. Rolling the arches would be an ideal solution.

Your brakes are s**t, because of these discs They make me cringe.

Like I said, it needs the alignment and camber setting up. Which I forgot to book today. But yes, it has spacers also.

Rear scrubs over bumps, but can't say i've noticed the front scrubbing at all. Yep, I wasn't overly sure what to expect from the DT's but they're fine for my needs.

Cheers guys! Nope, I'll do them if any come up for sale. I've heard mixed reports on most of them. :( Homo. They're classy. However they've a PITA to clean. And yes I did, but more importantly because I didn't want to use a clutch pedal. The HSD's aren't even uncomfortable.

With the help of Rhys and Pete, I got my HSDs fitted last weekend. Had chance to clean it yesterday. First impressions from the coilovers are fantastic, I would even say they ride better than the standard dampers. Obviously, though, they are harsher over speed pumps etc in the road. Super easy...

£5k. LOL.

Why?

Out of curiosity did you find the car would cut out under full acceleration?

I trust him, we did a good job on Oli's M3.

Take many, many notes.
