crystalworks is on a distinguished road
Sold my last e30. The convertible. Sad weekend.


On the X, big red got a wash finally after 2+ months of rain. Now that she's clean I pulled off the replica ACS spoiler as it had started lifting. The beta link is awesome stuff, but the paint job done on the underside was not as good as the OEM imola and the beta link pulled it off allowing the spoiler to lift. As a fix, I took most of the paint off the spoiler and dremmel'd some crosshatching into the bottom of the spoiler and the top of the hatch to allow the beta link more bite and something to really hold on to. Was too tired to get the weights and everything to actually reinstall as I had a long day working on house projects... but at least it's prepped and ready to go.


Also read my codes again... bad o2 heater circuit persists on post cat driver's side. Going to look more (fuses, wiring, etc), but might have to just bight the bullet and buy a unit that does not require soldering. The passenger o2 is doing okay though it seems and is of the same bosch universal 4 wire variety. Maybe I got a bad one... who knows.
