Didn't feel necessary to disclose the prices.
Suspension done.
I did some LSD today.

Car is aligned and I put new tires on them. Currently getting it diagnosed for a power steering issue, so I don't have any driving updates.
sweet.

Finally got a chance to take the car out to an event. My runs were pretty ugly so I've got a lot to learn, but the car is driving fine.
Great build so far man. Really good inspiration/motivation for my car. Keep it up!

Fitment on fleek.
Got spacers put on the front so it doesn't look so stupid. Definitely needed when I put my stock wheels on, as my current ET35 wheels barely cleared my spring. They're 12.5mm Turner spacers from slocar.

Still on that autox grind...
Hooooly shit that was some damn good driving. Looked really precise in the slalom! You said you're power steering was acting up, what did end up being?
The shop said one of the high pressure lines had a leak and ran the pump dry. They put in new hoses and a used pump. Car's been doing fine and I put about 80 miles a week on it, some of it very hard miles.
LOL 80 miles a week. try 500. ;-)

I'd want a new daily if I was doing 500 miles a week in this car. The suspension is just too stiff for that.
It'll past 205k miles on Friday. This car doesn't show that many miles on it either, so everybody is shocked when I tell them the miles.
I should update this. Been about 4k miles on the coilover/diff setup with no issues. The car has been running great.
I put on Bimmerworld spherical sway bar endlinks to replace my shot rubber ones. I also started to do a retrofit using a MH1 projector in the stock plastic housings; I hit a tire recently and part of it was due to the dim plastic headlights.
Diy please?! I'm interested
Nicely done. What do you mean b-stock projector? I'm guessing similar to "remanufactured". Only see the mini h1 projectors on TRS' site for $135

Looks like they renamed their products recently. B-stock just meant they offered no warranty and no guarantee anything worked. Basically what you would buy from China (Aliexpress) but without their return policy that would still take 1-2 months.
Just a quick update on how the car looks today.
Nice video! Wish I could afford an LSD lol

I'll be sending the car away in approximately 2 weeks when the shop has space to work on my car.
