hi everyone.

ding aka steve and I will be hanging out on tuesday afternoon, probably at my apartment because my E21 is there.

please post here if you are interested in stopping by, and i'll contact you with directions.

charles.

I'll try and be there, but after around 5 or so

Hey whats up. I might be able to stop by.

cool, OBD1 2.8L, it'll be downtown at my place. end of deadend of south henry. i can send you an email with more info if you like.

yeah send me an email....chuck@europeanperformanceandrepair.com

thanks

chuck

sorry its chuck@europeanperformanceandrepair.com not email....chuck..

hey guys... I might be able to stop by for a little bit..... please PM me your address (by the way, is there parking by your apt? I thought parking by downtown apts. are usually pretty crowded.. if so, maybe we can move to somewhere with good parking? thanks!) :)

Not to steal charles' thunder, but If there gets to be too many people and parking becomes an issue, we can do it at my place again.

i'm down, haha but then again i think i'm kinda the reason we were having the meet


ps lets swap my manifold

thanks for offering your place if things get crowded here. my apartment is being resided, and i thought they would be done by now but they aren't, so they might have a work truck parked in my driveway. we can always meet here and go to the park less than a mile away (where we had a summer meet.) or head to slowman's if things get crowded.

pretty nice day today, hope the weather is like this.

chuck, i still got to send you an email, sry for the delay.

PM me your address...I'll try to make it.

Sorry to say, we wouldn't be able to have it at my place... unless you guys don't mind uh... chillin out. Literally. We ran out of propane earlier today, so our place is pretty cold.

hmmm, we'll have to figure it out if things start getting crowded

Yeah I just got up and realised I have class over at MATC till1220 so thats not bad at all...its just that Matc sucks ass so I have to run there but after 1220 im free so just give me a ring and directions or you could email them to Blanketsex23@hotmail.com and I could map quest it or something.

What time is everyone meeting up?

yeah i would like to know what time people are going to get there as well.

yeah i would like to know what time people are going to get there as well.Chuck do you know where it is/if your gonna go If you do Id like to just follow you there so I dont get lost.

i know where it is. Im leaving around quarter to 5

call the cell 843-4287

ding and i are here at my place, chilling

we are going to slowman's place of employment to see him quick.

thanks everyone for showing up. nice to see some familiar faces and some new ones.

for everyone who couldn't make it, here is a summary of the cars:

my E21, noise maker
ding's E36 328
chuck's E36 odb1 2.8 swap
dustent's DASC E36 318
rob's E36 325
chuck's friend's (matt?) stroked M5 (hotness)
slowman's E30

think that is everyone.

for anyone who couldn't make it (608guy, etc) please keep tuned to our subforum for upcoming meets.

charles

Yeah, same here. Nice to meet everyone and see some other cars. I can't wait until summertime when we can do some driving!

Yeah it was fun. Did you put any thought into the M countours?

i'd kinda have to see how badly the potential buyer is interested in them. send me a PM with what you guess your wheels and tires are worth to you into the trade. OT where do you normally do work on your car? I could drop by if you wanted and help you hunt down that leak. like i said, i'd guess t-stat housing but i'd want to take your clutch fan off to poke around more to double check.

if the weather stays mild and the roads clear, I'll probably post another "mini-meet" thread and bring the E36. that way anyone who wanted to see or test drive it for their friends possibily interested in it (oh and i need to feel it compared to chuck's 3.91 LSD 5-speed ODB1 2.8, gonna feel slow....)

i have a couple ideas for places to have it on more on the west side since it seems closer to everyone.

It just sits in front of my house but do you know where Kelly moss motor sports is My dads business is ther and we could take it apart there and get a look at it there

is that off fish hach? how much coolant are you loosing?

is that off fish hach? how much coolant are you loosing?well I add every other week maybe.

when were you thinking of working on it? do you have a 32mm wrench at your command to take the fan off?

when were you thinking of working on it? do you have a 32mm wrench at your command to take the fan off? Im not sure yet I have to ask my dad to make sure the shop is free and clear of stuff cause its a Concrete testing firm so they have a ton of cylenders there so I will have to catch a day when no ones around

cool, just keep me posted, and i'll do the same about the wheels.

dude just stop by and have my bro look at it. We also have extra aluminum thermostat housings and metal waterpumps. We could have a "mini-meet" her and you guys can see the project car and see if we have any parts you might want.

-Chuck

i'd be down, just let me know when. we can play let's find the leak.

i really liked the way your car felt with the 3.91 diff in there chuck.

hey thanks a lot. We will have to go out on the nice roads where there isnt traffic to worry about. We'll keep in touch. I just got done making my sig. Hopefully it works.

-Chuck

test again

.

derr, i had fun

You should let me know how much you want for that alum t stat housing. I need another one to drill/tap for a sender so it would be nice to have less down time and get another one.

Ok im just going to make sure that i can locate it. Once i find it ill give you a price.

-Chuck

do you have the sig pic made already? did you read the sig size limits?

step two is host is somewhere

step three is throw the link to where the image is hosted into your sig space in the userCP, then throw some [IMG] [/ IMG] brackets ( no space)

i use imageshack to host images for free.

send me the image if you can't figure it out and i'll send you back the finished link to add.

When do you think he could take a look at it? That smell has been getting on my nerves

Charles, Rob -

Let me know when you're going to work on Rob's car. I haven't gotten my hands dirty in a while!

Totally missed this yesterday; Dusten filled me in. I believe I added myself to the registry some months back; hopefully we can meet up again soon!

~nich

ps, lets swap my manifold and cams

you'll have to catch the next one snuggz.

the weather is supposed to be great tomorrow, like 45F!:redspot

dustent, did you show your friend the for sale ad? no hurry or anything, just wondering what they thought of the E36.

if anyone wants to stop by tomorrow im going to be diging up some parts for rob's car (possibly look at it). Im going to pull some other parts out if i can find them. You guys can come over and check out my brothers car in the garage and all our engines and stuff. Feel free to give me a call and i can give you directions. Tomorrow is going to be a garage clean up day and part location so just feel free to call me at 843-4287. I have class until 1:45 or so. or just post on here if you want.

-chuck

cool, not sure how late i'll be at work tomorrow but i'll give a call to see if anyone is around when i'm done.

I sent him the link, he REALLY likes the car. He sold his RX7 TurboII yesterday. I think he's got about $3k on hand, so he's just got to come up with the rest, either from the bank or whatever. I'll call him today and find out what the deal is. I'll see if he wants to come up to Madison this weekend.

sounds good, and like i said if you personally wanted to see the car/test drive in it before you friend comes up that'd be cool too.

kinda feel like driving it today, but i'll be pretty busy at work....

Chuck - I might be able to stop over on Friday after work (5pm). Can your brother do ball joints? I need to get some of those metal ones, I'm averaging about 10k miles on a set of factory bmw balls.

-chuckIll be there

dusten- yeah he can, but not at our house. he would have to take it to work. Ill ask him about it and get back to you

how did things go?

i needed to eat and relax after work today.

we actually didnt meet up...i had to run to zimbrick to pick up some parts and had some other things i had to do...i talked to dusten and i think we are going to meet up sometime this weekend but ill let everyone know.

-Chuck

cool, let us know....

I propose that we do a country road cruise this weekend if it doesn't snow. (possibility) I know some awesome country roads in Green county, and a good route to get there from Madison. :)

Even though most of you guys are way faster than me in a straight line anyway...

Chuck -

I got some new meyle heavy duty control arms with metal centered ball joints. I also have some m3 offset control arm bushings. Can you and your bro install these? The bushings need to be pressed out and pressed back in, do you guys have a press? I'll help do it, I just don't have the space to do it in my parking stall (and i don't have a press).

Maybe we can get together on Saturday? I'm not in a huge rush, but I'd like to take a look at that throttle body.

i randomly bumped into chuck in middleton yesterday (thursday) and he mentioned he was going to milly, not sure if he'll be back on sat...

slowman and i were thinking of going for a drive this weekend if the weather permits.
