Bought it a present: http://www.ecstuning.com/ES2769955/

CrippledLucifer · 10-01-2014, 08:19 AM

Had my PE delivered on Monday and got it installed yesterday. Best investment ever.

tboudre · 10-01-2014, 08:33 AM

Just found this thread. It wasn't today, but most recently I installed an ethanol content sensor & new fuel line. Details here:

Replaced oil filter gasket and coolant hose.

Bimmer28312 · 10-02-2014, 10:02 PM

Recently replaced vanos bolts. Immediately slapped on my VRSF DP! Can't wait to open her up this weekend

koches · 10-02-2014, 10:16 PM

Plasti dipped my mirror covers from sparkling graphite to matte black to match grills and other accents

Whateva · 10-03-2014, 12:55 PM

Took my v1 off the dash, freed up my cigarette lighter power supply and hard wired the v1 above the rear view. So much better

After almost a month of not washing it

(I know, I've been busy as hell and it's hard to find car washes around here), it's finally clean again, especially since I got a date tomorrow

Think of it as a protective layer of dirt.

headhunterz · 10-04-2014, 12:41 AM

Installed my mtech rear

=C= · 10-04-2014, 05:29 AM

Finally decided to get the rattling sorted on the turbo's, it was getting really really annoying.

So replaced both with new OEM's, along with the water pump.

Cobb AP came in last week and sitting on my desk waiting for.... VRSF DP and the VRSF charge pipe with tial BOV

Thedirtymex · 10-04-2014, 05:51 AM

Plasti dipped the wheels and painted one set of lug nuts and front calliper. Still need to touch up front wheel paint and finish the other calliper and lug nuts. Finish the back wheels too.

budlee · 10-04-2014, 11:54 AM

Wash, T-wax Iced, and T-wax Jet Black Tire Treatment on my 335i. All in a hour first thing this morning.

eurofan99 · 10-05-2014, 01:20 AM

did some cleaning of the interior and trying to get rid of this smell that comes out of the vents but cant seem to find it

N0Chill 335i · 10-05-2014, 09:56 AM

Washed her... it's been like 3 months.

NEFARIOUS · 10-05-2014, 03:22 PM

This was yesterday, but this happened (and its coolant levels were fine 2 weeks ago)...

Most likely because of this...

Then this happened.

JeM9 · 10-05-2014, 08:20 PM

Finally had some time away from the gf to give my car a very important wash

justpete · 10-05-2014, 08:35 PM

Swapped Stoptech slotted Sport rotors for OE Zimmerman solid rotors front and rear, swapped pads for pre-bedded Carbotech XP-10 pads front and rear with titanium shims up front, installed solid guide pin bushings in the rear calipers, changed camber plate setting to max camber with toe-out, and set the rear swingarm eccentric to the pre-set witness marked track position for more camber and toe-in. Test drive went fine, brakes work much better than expected, steering isn't nearly as darty as expected either.

Front took two hours, rear the rest cuz I screwed up and overloosened the lock nut on the swingarm eccentric and the washer jumped out. A big screwdriver and harsh language fixed that but then the witness marks didn't make sense (memory? whazzat?) so just set both sides up to the mark that moved the swingarm out the farthest. Measures about -3.5* or more up front and -2.8* or so in back. Didn't measure toe, supposed to be set up correctly though.

hOlykamOtie* · 10-06-2014, 12:56 AM

Gave my car a sexy car wash she deserves!

mt145 · 10-06-2014, 08:25 AM

Oil change. Meant to do it at 5k, but then I did 6k. Life is busy. Also reminded myself I should get a larger pan to drain into, all that oil fills it about a finger width away from the top!

techietaichi · 10-06-2014, 10:54 PM

Bounced over to Turner and bought a second aFe filter so I could swap out whenever I need a clean one. As you can see below I definitely needed a swap today. Cleaned off my MAF sensor and cleaned out the cabin air filter as it didn't need changing yet.
