[QUOTE="capkel, post: 79076, member: 902"] First thing is to get the car back in perfect (well 80%) running condition. The major things would be to rebalance or replace the longshaft. It's shaking the car a bit. The gear box has been overhauled three years ago and it's still ok. The engine has the very distinctive 12v tappet sounds, so i guess, valve clearance adjustments? The bottom of the car needs some work as well like replacing all wear and tear brake components and suspension system. Interior wise it's ok. I probably need to change the door linings and give the leather seats some touch-up. It was reupholstered recently. I probably will rejoin you guys for TT. It's been a while. BTW where is this place? Have been trying to search for it in the forum but drew a blank. No doubt the E46 was a plasure to drive but I still like working on things and the e34 gives me the opportunity to do so without breaking the bank too much. ;) [/QUOTE]
