ah, that would make sense, i have a 74 and i tried redoing the carpet myself and gave up

check out youtube for sound clips, super sprint sounds good but ya that price tag sucks. you can probably get a custom maganaflow cat back made at a muffler shop for cheaper and it will sound good with the 4.4. and high flo cats are cheap too.

my only thoughts is that its going to be tough to fit it unless you're good at sewing because oe carpet is molded to fit.

awww i miss XXX!

wow thats expensive! if you're just tryin to get rid of the orange you can use clear red coat spray used for stain glass windows, wet sand with some 600 or so and lightly dust a few layers till you get the coverage you want. just dont forget to tape off the reverse light. i painted the other red too just to ensure an even shade of color.

HAHAHAHAHAHA oh thats mean lol

i know seafoam works good for clearing sludge, might help too for your emulsion mess. just pour in 1/3 of a bottle, let it run for about 5 minutes at idle, maybe rev it a couple times and then change your oil

my sisters mani had a hole in it too and we used that to temp plug it up. just make sure it dries fully and cure before you drive it, i think it takes like 24 hours or something

"this job would cost you $100. oh wait is a bmw right? yeaahh thats gonna be $850 cuz ya theres a lot of extra nuts and bolts. oh and also since its vintage thats going to cost you another $200 because those cars are special so yeeaaaah." i freaking hate shops like that! the dude at circuit city(before they went under) tried charging me for an install of a radio deck that was on sale with free install on my E36 because he claimed that they were much harder to take apart. i have never had a car thats been easier to remove the deck out of. stupid people! oh and also the IE eurothane mounts pretty good too, i just put mine in a few months ago. little bit more vibration than rubber but its a smoother shift. one thing you might want to do is look into aligning your drive shaft while youre down there. i had to add a couple shims with the IE mount. theres plenty of write ups on how to do it here

im in the process of doing this myself. i just bought a kit of ebay from crimestoppers for like 30 or 40 bucks. you can get just the remote locking system for a little cheaper but im like hey why not spend just a hair more and get the features of a fancy noise maker. to the pro theft its just a minor inconvenience till the find the power wire and cut it to disarm but hey makes me feel just a little safer. heres a little write up i found from one of the guys on this site. kinda gives you the jist of how it works http://www.my2002tii.com/spring_2005/alarm.htm i found another one that was a little more in depth but i cant find it now.

is your carb dirty? thats all i can think of.

let me know how that gt wheel works cuz thats gonna be my final step on my interior

if you're not much for name brands, grant makes a million different wheels, the signature series should fit with our cars and their euro fit kit, the GT rally wheel looks similar like the one in that first pic

haha thats weird, gives it that kind of stretched funny car look

i wish i could but im down in oregon and have duty the whole weekend. im trying to put in for leave so maybe i can get it off

why do i gotta be workin that weekend... not great

holy crap! thats crazy! my jaw litterally dropped i had no idea brake cleaner was that intense

from my experience(in the audi world) triple K's suck and if you can afford a nicer garett or something go with that. i had an 01 audi S4 twin turbo with Ko3's, granted thats way newer than on '02 but still both turbos got kissed by the dentist drill fairy and $6000 later my ex car was back on the road. if you go on any audi forum its nothing but posts about bad turbos, leaky oil return lines and oil flooded intercoolers. BUT if you're so inclined to rebuild one yourself i've found ebay is a good source
