RE: What did you do to your car today
Raised coilovers, sold the AVA bostons and replaced with staggered 19" csl's, replaced stereo and got all speakers working, found new grilles, new altenator, all fluids changed and car is running sweet!!!
Just have to raise the back a bit she is rubbing, any help? :smiling:

Changed the rear pads on the M3. ATE is what they came with day one, ATE is even stamped on the spring clip. Less than half the price of dealer pads too.
I used ATE Plastilube anti squeal paste too but the pads have a built in anti-squeal coating on the back.

Discs will definitely need to be done next time out.
What did you do to your car today
Found my clutch stop on the floor:

Rather than replace with an OE part , I'm considering making an adjustable stop* to take a little bit of travel out of the clutch.
* provided I can remove the broken threaded bit...

Gave the car a second going over with the polisher today, some scrott scratched the rhs of the bonnet.
Then I decided to give under the bonnet a good clean up.

RE: What did you do to your car today
Had the arches man john c on the job today, raised and rolled the rears, massive improvment, I think I need thinner rear tyres, I have 265/30/19 on the rears, I need to go another 20-30 mm not as wide as she is still rubbing under heavy driving/deep dips,
THE the bar connecting the handle of the door went so I have to go around the far side of the car to let me in!!! Arrrgghhh,
Down to valdelis when I can I think.

Had mine rolled by John C too couple of years ago .... With spacers mine still rub, hoping that maybe when I get the suspension refreshed that it'll help it a little more
