The enD

Feeling nostalgic?

Made a hole so I can access the fuel pump if something like, I don't know, a swap happens. Added more steel bracing. Added 45° , bigger on is where the port is. Some rounding up. The port is ready

Damn, BMW

Thanks, man.

More work

I couldn't care less what time of the year it is, I'm just casually build a wall in my car.

Can't really tell if it would be easier compared to only wood, but I know one three things for sure. It's going to be lighter, stronger and cheaper this way. Which I am all in for since the plan is have a somewhat lightweight car with a loud system, and later on, when I swap a more powerful engine, the system won't be a draw back. The cage you guys see is removable, right now it's out of the car and I've started cutting the wood.

I'm just gonna leave this here

Spam everywhere

Want some from my country?

What's wrong with CCF, looks like a great way to suspend? Thanks for the link, I knew I should have read all of Don's stuff.

So in order to achieve good result, I'll have to add some CCF in between the MLV and the bare body panel??

I am about to start my search, so I wanted to know if something in other fields can work as well.

It's a trap

Some time ago I thought about buying acid lead batteries and getting their lead out. But it's too much work. Hmm, not really positive on the aluminum foil as it's quite lightweight. I am willing to do some work, but I don't think it will pay off. Looking for an alternative for both reasons. Shipping from Don would be expensive. That's a good idea and my first thought, some heavy duty rubber mats, maybe do two layer with overlapping to hide the seal. I have a friend that has a horse barn, will ask him. Too bad you are 6k miles away.

A good skill to have and fun to build stuff. What style of welding are you learning? TIG, MIG, Arc, or just Brazing? MIG

http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/topic/61379-what-can-i-use-as-a-substitute-for-mlv/ Made a thread, basically, what can I use to gain similar effects to MLV( mass loaded vinyl), to block sound?

Father is going to be teaching me to weld tomorrow, then I can start on the wall cage.

I first need to finish my wall, then get coilovers as that much power won't go along with stock suspension on +200 000 kilometers.

I may swap a new engine with a turbo on mine next year. Too bad it's front drive. Non the less, +300hp on the wheels should be fun.

Blasphemy

It's currently 22 here, can believe you are complaining about 70, I would love that shit all year round.

Neither did I. Just seems like a nice convenience but unneeded as hell.J Since when does need pertain to features in what I drive? Very good point. I guess to me a heated wheel is not a selling point.J I bought the car without so it wasn't the opposite. I did want it though. Heated seats and wheel and you hardly need heat in the car even when it is cold out. Way less drying on the eyes.Since I am going to re-upholster my seats, I guess it's a good idea to modify them with a heating option. The opposite sounds good too, cool seats in the summer.
