Yep, I finished. I went the cheap route and got the PLM's ($275). They fit perfect. The hard part was just getting around in the tight space. Also, some of my tools where either too long (thats what she said, I wish

or too short), so I had to spend more time than I wanted to testing out other tools. And yes it was hot! I literally lost 7lbs of water weight in one day. I think I need to start a new diet plan based off this.

Changing the plugs is a piece of cake as long as you have the sparkplug tool and a long socket extension. Also get a spark plug puller with the retractable claw so you can extract the plugs once they are loose.

You can get them for $10/piece at http://www.autohausaz.com/search/pro...2@Spark%20Plug

bpsu07 · 06-30-2011, 01:01 PM

+1 about the Man vs Food at the restaurant!

Info on it?

UltraRacer13 · 06-30-2011, 06:59 PM

artifice- what a gyp dude...you mention the show then don't come through.

artifice · 07-01-2011, 09:17 AM

oh wtf... I swear I posted!!!! It may have got deleted? I put the address and everything!

UltraRacer13 · 07-01-2011, 09:26 AM

no problem- where was it? was it awesome?

artifice · 07-01-2011, 09:36 AM

It was at Sprouts in Arlington. It was ok... it is basicallly lilke being on a tv set, they tell you when to scream and such. The challenger guy had a 5lb bowl of Pho but the actual competition is for a 7lb or 8 lb bowl. He did it like in 8 minutes but the real champ did the bigger bowl in 10 min. So i don't think he would have beaten the real record. But he beat the challenge none-the-less. Adam is pretty funny but he is such a pro, he was in the zone the whole time and it was fun to watch. My voice is dead from all the screaming we had to do. Should air in ilke 6 weeks or so.

httorihanzo · 07-01-2011, 02:10 PM

Anybody insterested in JB4 pin out? Im not sure what these go for now or what updates have been made since I put it in. I need $300 bucks out of it this weekend.

bpsu07 · 07-01-2011, 11:10 PM

artifice what car did you drive there? I saw an E90 with a DTM front? I think idk.

@ Sprouts Restaurant it was fun, and worth the experience lol. My voice was gone also haha. I was so hungry after that, wasn't expecting for us to be stuck in there for like 3 hours!

I took my tahoe but my gf met me up there, she has the aw e92 with an mtech front lip. It was parked at the corner of the parking lot... Maybe hers? Is yours debadged and dropped?

jusdentrojan · 07-05-2011, 01:41 AM

Hey guys! First post here...

I've had my car for over 2 years now but just recently decided to mod it. Previous car was a turbo s2k (ultimate racing then lovefab).

Hate that my first post is kind of a FS, but would anyone happen to want some stock 162s? I have very new michelin pilot sports on them.

And I noticed some of you are running VMR wheels... did you order them online? I was checking EAS since they are able to do a wheel+tire combo, but of course limited tire options.

Thanks!
Justin

Welcome to the boards, there is a few popular vendors but EAS is nice. PYSpeed has a local rep and I'm sure he will chime in soon also
