a busy friday and saturday

[westside]

Mmm after buying the 330 i noticed the clutch was slipping a tad under hard acc so i went off to BMW and brought one (there re con) so after handing over some hard earned cash i got myself one and friday night was spent fitting the clutch (check out the side of the clutch where the wear is) some naughty person (pre owner was a a man but his mrs used ot drive it a lot) she has been riding the clutch :evil: :evil:

anyway drives much better now even the though the gearbox was a pig to put back in :evil: but now i can get the power down!

[Raj]

You had a seriously busy couple of days. I did the complete opposite and lazed the whole weekend :D .

Harv's ride looks really wicked with the little touches [cool . I like the drop of the E36 (looks just right). I am deffo gonna get the pro kit fitted now.

Kav, I like the ICE. No pics of the headrests? Will be cool to see your ride in the flesh (looks seriously lush [bow ).

[westside]

head rests i should tackle this weekend (i am lowering stock 323 car on sat so hopefully i'll do it after that) :D

[peppernick]

Nice job! I love 300SINGH's ride :cool:

[Jamie]

Nice one kav - hell, you must get bored when you have nothing to mod!

[BigFas]

Nice job dude

[westside]

lol yeah thats right jamie

cheers fas moding keeps me out of trouble!

[Tin]

kav u nutta! work those roti's n saag man! :D nice one bro!

[InvIs Inc]

nice work dude!!! [cool

[yagga]

Nice work dude... Now get that ice finished... My eibach springs should be here this week and im coming straight to you to get them fitted mate... ha ha ha

[cool

[Durgesh]

Kav, Well done dude, some serious about of work going on there!

I am still in a Mad rush to get where I want to be for this Sat.

Clutches on e46 wear anwyayz quick because of the SAC. That's half the problem I was having before. But having a bad driving just makes things worse I guess.

Did you do the clutch change outside your house... if so amazing!!!

Durgesh

[Turkish]

knowing kav, i bet he pumped the bitch up, slid himself under and up it and gave it a right good seeing too right outside his house, in full public view!

[westside]

lol no man the clutch was a ramp job i did it after hours my mate let me borrow his ramp the clucth on the e46 is a lot easier to do then on the e36 the top housing bolts can be bastards but lucky for me theses one were easy to get out the joys of working on a car thats only a few years old. On the e36 the climate control module leaks the water ontpo the top of the gearbox housing rusting the top 2 bolts so there bastard to undo ! this one came out like a dream but was a bastard to get back in. I also angle grinded the DSSR as it was hitting my propshaft when the short shift was in so now thats all cool to :-)

as ever digs your car is looking cool hopefully you lot well get some new trophics at HIN if not then something is def wrong

[Durgesh]

Kav, Thanks man :cool:

The new drop is crazy! You will love it when you see it. Getting a little rubbing in the rear, should have gone for 30's, not 35's!

Even though my arch is rolled.... around corners, its pissing me off, because its handle's like a dream, and really want to see where its limits are.

I will do pictures once my splitters are back on.

Durgesh

[lee330sport]

How come you went for 35's on the rear? Hope mine fit as i wont have time to Roll em before HIN. :rolleyes:

[330-Singh]

mmmm yeah the 35 profiles a bit big unless you went for 235/35 on the rear as well as the fronts?

[westside]

no problem yagga bringthe springs over and i'll sort it out :-) i have some new tools comming next sunday :-)

[audiophilia]

congrats! great job...

[RDG 40]

awesome job the 2 cars together look the business!!!!!!

Were the rear lights OEM?

[330-Singh]

No they are not oem LEDs they are the FK ones. They look pretty much identical though.

[Durgesh]

mmmm yeah the 35 profiles a bit big unless you went for 235/35 on the rear as well as the fronts?

Got the tyres for a good price... M3 fittment you see. (255/35/19)

30's are more expensive, but looks like I might have to go that way.

Would love (255/30/19), but very rare, Toyo don't do them, so guess its going to have to be (265/30/19).

Durgesh

[330-Singh]

Yeah go for the 265/30 on the rear....the lower profile might make that little bit of difference to eliminate the rubbing.

[h4pry]

Your car rocks Kav [cool

One of the best E46 verts I have ever seen [jam

[Ali_]

Gosh Kav you have been a busy boy, top work all round mate good to see someone getting their hands dirty ;)

[Afif]

ahhh you got it done then [ok. Car looking good but is that a spec of dirt i see on the sideskirt :eek:? your slipping Kav [crackmeup.

[BlackBimmerUK]
