oh thats right. I'm going to do that when I do the transmission in the Spring. i'll be replacing the steering rack and rebuilding the lines while the trans is pulled. Tired of this thing leaking P/S fluid and fucking with the brake system

Screw Bimmers man. Was doing a steering rack R&R on my sister's 328i tonight and the damn 1/2" ratchet flies off the mounting bolt and smacked me right in the mouth HARD. Now I got a fat lip and I lisp more than usual. *commenthe epic rant

Made a replacement cruise control bushing. Made from high quality polypropylene for long lasting use!
If anyone else wants one, $12.50 gets you one!

Nope. Going to retain all comfort options including A/C. Was originally going to use an urq setup, but with the eurovan block that gives me the option to use something newer with a serpentine belt (that and the urq bracket won't work)

Can someone enlighten me on which ethanol sensor to keep an eye out for? I was looking at grabbing a flex fuel sensor off of a GM product. Will that work with VEMS with the 0-5v output?

You posted in your thread... I got a notification from TPP... It said 20vt. Twice now.
Crazy part is, it only does it to you. My posts still say 20vt.
