I really think its the oil. My whole set-up is hps sri, medalion muffler & suspension. The only thing that changed recently is the oil.

 

Damn. Ill have to try. Im using hondas oil. Ive got a k&n drop in filter with a cut open bottom air box. No muffler (lol) and coilovers. My mpg suck

 

I'm waiting desperately for my Type M spoiler (I have a tafetta white base model) to arrive, can't figure how to install tho or what color I will be painting it.

 

Same only a key cover though lol but now I'm closer to completing the red badge scheme

 

My mugen goodie got held up at the Tenso Warehouse. Apparently it didn't make registration because it contain illegal items.

...a packet of adhesion promoter.

Still waiting for it to be available so I can pay for shipping...almost there :/

 

lol never had that problem before with the alcohol wipe...

 

Apparently Buyee and Tenso now have special policy about this kind of thing, (Buyee and Tenso are the same company)...
Last night I try to bid on several Recaro Seat Rail, Ohlins Coil Over and Recaro Belt Cover. and somehow Buyee prevent me from bidding it before they review.
After they review, they refuse to let me bid on those item above at Yahoo action citing that the items above is prohibited to be shipped to USA..
what the heck...

Buyee is having that free yahoo auction buying fee sale, and I thought I want to take advantage of this ...
but the only item they approve me to bid and bought is the BBS wheel...
oh well... looks like I had to wait longer for the other items...

 

I got a promo sticker for a friend's tattoo shop. With a little trimming, it should fit on the gas cap perfectly. I don't know why, but I think something like that adds a certain interesting effect. It breaks up the monotony of the colour in just the right way.

 

this is not new BMW =p

 

Yeah seriously... but it finally went through and I just completed payment


I have no idea what you guys are talking about lol
Thats too JDM for me

 

Replaced my front and rear wiper blades today, also had to readjust the driver wiper; for some reason it wasn't positioned corrently on the windshield.

Also, would you guys recommend me something brighter for my foglight ? They are too dim and I'm looking for something brighter in white preferably.

 

my sti lip arrived just in time for my bday weekend.. now to decide on color for the lip

 

Definitely get some LED fogs. Since you're running 8k HIDs, I would recommend getting 8k fogs also. I prefer 6k, but that's just me.

 

I'm running some DDM tuning 3k Hids in the fogs and it's super bright. I think you would be set with some 5k Hids from them.

 

My Front Brembo Gran Turismo Brake Kit 6piston caliper Type III (Type 3) Rotor
finally arrive by Fedex today.

Mother of... damn BMW. Looking forward to your write up! ;P

 

did you use a hid kit relay when installing your fog hids? I'm planning to do the exact same with 3K hid fog kit.. just looking at options and if I should use a relay to the battery

 

damn bmw alpina.. that looks like a wikid setup.. can't wait to see it on the fit

I just test fit my sti lip.. definately love the way it look and matches the dipped area real nice



also put a bit of carbon wrap to see if i like it... hmm.. kind of like unfinished look.. decisions..

 

No no relay kit required. The assembly plugs into the existing fog light harness on the car. No need to run anything to the battery.

Plus ddm has a lifetime warranty.


P.S.- Sti lip looks good as is

 

Ditto on the sti LIP, no carbon fiber!

Also, how much did you spend on the DDM ? I don't think lifetime warranty is a plus for me since I'm overseas. I'm actually thinking on getting some LED H11 6000k for my fit. But I don't know, I don't want to spend that much but definitely want something better than what I have right now.
