Took the car in for the blower motor wiring recall, left with a mug. Kinda cool, the lower half ceramic is textured like the carbon trim in the car, and the ///M is on a tight silicone band instead of normal mug handle.




Received the 3D Design key case, really quality piece and will be super easy with the Comfort Access.




Also received the Alpine DCT and coding cables.




Met up with some friends.

Installed new front Zimmerman rotors + Stoptech Sport pads Front and Rear + brake fluid flush with Brembo LCF 600 fluid, in prep for my first track day in a few weeks.
All using the new Quickjack. Love that thing...

Those damn anti-rattle clips on the calipers...not so much.

Finally installed a fixed back to keep my ass in place on track. Hoping it doesn't end up getting too annoying as a daily. But the improved ability to focus on car control is night and day.

Seat is OMP First-R with OMP tall side mounts, Bimmerworld base plates, and Macht Schnell 3 point seatbelt mount adapter. Fitment was about 90% perfect.

Next step is Brey Krause harness bar with 6 point harness.

Looks great but seems one have to accept a bit more wheel/fender air on the front or the car turns dragster. Damn she's low in the front now bro!

Ordered some new brake pads, and installed a wall mounted tire storage system to get my wheels up in the air. Also worked on some general garage organization. M3 gets to spend some time in the garage while the Cobra is in the shop getting some maintenance work done.

I wanted to drop the rear more but it's maxed out. I may raise the front a tad. I agree that the front is likely too low.

Thanks man

I thought for sure these were coils, I’ve been wanting to see a photo with the HAS maxed out because I never thought they would be low enough for my liking but this looks great man.

Replaced thermostat and coolant sensor. Was getting fault codes.
Learned the hard way to get intakes 4 and 8 secured to plenum first then the remaining 6.
All in all a very easy job

after 4 days in a toyota corolla rental car, it was great to get back in my car this morning
even if it was just to commute through LA traffic to get to work


i drove from las vegas to page, arizona (driving through parts of Utah to get there)
and then back to vegas
the whole time, i was just wishing i had my e90 with me
especially when i had to pass cars on the 2-way highway
