Wow its been a while since I've checked this thread! I've been very busy with life. I have done a couple more things to it and will post pics shortly. I bought new Recaro Pole Positions with electric BK mounts and a Bimmer World catless x-pipe. I haven't been driving it too much lately as I've bought an E70 X5M so the E92 will likely be for sale soon

Not listed yet but likely will be shortly. For those interested its got about 108k miles with all mods listed in the build so far with the addition of new Recaro Pole positions and a BW catless x pipe. Will be asking somewhere in the realm of 27k with all mods. All mods were bought NEW by me with the exception of wheels and muffler. |

New 265/285 Hankook RS4s, 1,000,000 times better than PSS on the track and not too bad on the road, even in rain.

Already has been lowered, has spacers, muffler delete and some cosmetic goodies. Car is a beast with huge presence on the road.

Thanks! Well, I’ve decided to keep the car. That said, I’d like to swap my pole positions for sportster cs seats to make my back seat car seat accessible. If anyone is interested please message me. |

Some pics I had from COTA in May. More to follow.
Only time this will probably happen. Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr I also ordered a pair of Recaro Sportster CS seats with corresponding BK mounts to replace my current set up. Everything should be here within the next week and will go in shortly after. The pole positions and BK mounts will be for sale at that time. Also toying with the idea of taking the Eisenmann Race exhaust off to replace with my OEM muffler to quiet it down a bit. If anyone wants to inquire, feel free. |

Recently did my thermostat, coolant hose from the overflow tank to thermostat, spark plugs and fuel tank vent valve to solve my idle problems after filling up. Didn't get many pictures. I have no idea when the spark plugs were last done but they looked new when I took them out. One of these days when I have the manifold off I'll have to do a thorough engine bay detail. Still extremely dirty.

No, the guy just had it over filled. If yours says it’s over filled chances are that is and the leak would have to be pretty significant to change the oil level between regular oil changes.

Little bit of an update. I've decided to keep the car so the mods will continue. Recently I put in some Recaro Sportster CS seats to accommodate a car seat and also an Akropovic Titanium slip on exhaust to quiet things down a bit. I bought the E90 version (used) thinking 1.5'' wouldn't be that big of a deal but, it is. I love the way it sounds and how light it is but the sunk in look is a no go. I'm currently trying to trade for the E92 version so if you're interested let me know please.
Here you can see the sportsters vs pole positions; Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Fully installed, I ended up using BK mounts again. Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Akropovic slip on Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Seller included adapters for OEM style x pipe; Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Now for the unfortunate part, it looks ok but not the way it should. The tips can be adjusted out a little bit but they don't feel as solid and I'd to see one tumbling in my rear view. Again, if anyone is selling the E92 version or is willing to trade please let me know. Yes, I'm aware the car is filthy. Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Untitled by jake ellegard, on Flickr Not quite sure what the next step will be as everything I want from here is super expensive. (PFC BBK, BBS E88s, GT4 X pipe, carbon intake, etc) Thanks for looking!
