Pulled the trigger


#1

on my suspension order with Bimmer World… I doubt I will have the car ready for Hyperfest, but soon, very soon… I hope :slight_smile: but I think I said that last year.

I am on a schedule to get this car ready in the next couple months… and heads up, in HPDE Group 3 now… don’t know if I will be able to get on track with you guys this year but I am hopeful.

Good seeing you folks at CMP.
Thomas

I love when those boxes show up on the porch. Did they have the springs in stock?

I called H&R last week. They told me that they’re scheduled to have springs this coming saturday and that suppliers should have them after that. I have no idea how accurate that info is, but thats what I was told. Receiving stock on a sat seemed weird, but she did say 5/20. I guess she didn’t specify year…

The IE Camber plates, alum. sub-frame bushings, and powerflex rear trailing arm bushings were on backorder. IE plates on their way though.

I can’t wait though… install party in Bel Air Maryland :slight_smile:

The word I got from H&R on the springs is they will be receiving them "around" the 25th of this month and begin shipping them shortly after.

I would much prefer the 20th like you heard but at this point just knowing they are coming helps.

Glad bimmerworld.com had them in stock…

wow… looks like my springs were shipped from H&R in WA yesterday. I guess those dates of 5/20 and 5/25 were pessimistic.

am i invited to the install party, seriously i need to help so i can learn something lol. I spoke with my shop this morning and my e30 is under the knife as we speak i should be street legal this week. maybe i can drive mine to the install party hehe. I’m doing a full cooling system, and brake system swap before i do my suspension, hoping to have both of those done in a month or so , then suspsension, then who knows lol. its fun to have the bmw in progress now its curing my mod itch, so im not as tempted to blow a few thousand on the coupe.
