I know this is old, but what happened with the car? that build looked freakin amazing!!!! updates!!!!

Well here are the pictures as promised, please excuse the horrible paint, and the messed up camber. haha. They dont sit "flush" but i dont really want them to, i kind of like how they are, wouldnt mind some 245's though. haha.

Tire Shredder, is that one spring for that price? or is that a set of 8 or 12 or anything like that?

The mains "should" be ok if it was rod knock.... just make sure you clean everything REALLY good when you have it apart, and when you put it back together... Any reason you just didnt pull the engine and rebuild it?

I do not believe that can be done... because the crank is held in place with the front case, and the rear main seal... you COULD try pushing them out of the side, but i dont think it will work... Are you just trying to fix rod knock? or what?

Why not take the aunt to court, and have HER tested for the drugs? i mean... if your mom came up clean, and your grandpa is taking the right amounts... why didnt you get her tested? sounds like an easy case to me... could always get him a motor home to put in the backyard or something?

I personally got sick of my stock BOV on my eclipse... With a metal intake you could hear the damn thing every shift, on and off boost it would make noise... and it was a little TINY bosch bov... only doin 14psi... My friend has a greddy type s, hes had it forever... i personally think it...

So this past weekend when i installed my 5zigens... my friend had bought the "5zigen lug nuts"... those worked great, but there not like the OEM lug nuts where they fit into the hole a little and "bite" more of the stud... It only took 4-7 turns of the 5zigen ones to tighten all the way... what...

For the driveshaft contact Shaftmasters... Shaftmasters > Jawsgear I cant stand my one piece steel driveshaft from jaws gear... If you contact shaftmasters they will explain why it sucks too.

I was planning on it... i want at least 17x9 in the rear... These right now are 17x8 with +43. I'm debating selling them all... my friend with an eclipse wants to buy them off me, so i might just sell him two so i can get bigger rears, just not sure yet. If i put new tires on the rims...

Traded my engine rebuilding skills for a set of rims. I'll get more this weekend.

95' M3 > 91' M5 lol

I see some very valid points, especially the repair bills, but i do all my own repairs, whether its rebuilding an engine or replacing the spark plugs. The Hydralic Load Leveling (HLL) I can eliminate with a bilstein suspension, or a koni suspension... that i see as a little mishap. And why...

No 97's... wayyy too much. haha. I like the 91 to 93... plus its a 4-door, and it has a 3.6L that i could always turbo or supercharge later if i wanted to make it even faster, just have to drop it from the 10:1 compression to like 9:1 or 8.5:1. I want to find one and go test drive it to see...

M52 Nikasil engine never went to the USA http://www.bmw-board.co.uk/nikasil.htm#what_is im safe!!!! yes! and i see that you live in the UK, so i see why you mentioned that. thanks! How was the performance of the car? i know it says it has like 300HP, but does it FEEL like it has that...

So in looking for a car lately, i discovered a car that i've never seen, a 1991 BMW 5-series M5. Has a 3.6L supposedly bullet proof engine good for 200k. After reading up on them, and there engines and what not, im pretty interested in them, and there under 10k. AND RWD!!!! So, has anybody...

Did you do the PROPER torque sequence? this happened to a buddy of mine while building an engine, didnt do the proper sequence, had the crank inspected, it was good, re-torqued it down the PROPER way and everything was fine. haha.

Nevermind on the 89ish on the M3... there only 4 cylinder. lol What does everybody think of STi's? like the 03ish models?

my car is N/A... but i own a turbo gst eclipse that i rebuilt, has a Quaife LSD and all sorts of goodies... but i HATE it, i dont fit for SHIT... which is why i like the supra... the SRT-4 seemed like a good idea... but after reading some of the stuff on here i'll go look on craigslist some...

gets good gas milage. lol
