" Have been keeping up with this all week on my phone but have been busy to post....Just wanted to say congrats Sticky and Gintani....Wish you best with this car and hope you get this car on the road ready to raise some hell...

Will be keeping track of future progress and events that this car will attend...Please keep me in the loop of any local events in socal..

And since im in the area close to you....Ill make a friendly offer that a buddy has a E92 M3 with a standard ESS 625 kit...If you want to make some comparo runs he would be down and im sure youd like to see the bus lengths difference....Not a "top" ESS kit but at least a standard of comparison haha "

" I have the same problem as of recently...When the car is cold I have what seems to be the belt making a little bit of noise that sounds similar to the rotations of the belt...Cant confirm if it happens when "humid"...

It only started recently for me about the last <1000 miles....one of my buddies with a 335i had the same issue and he sprayed "lubricant" on it and it quiets it down....Obviously not a solution LOL but it works if the noise bugs you....I remember he carried it around in his trunk and would pop his hood before cruises and spray it was pretty funny but now I have the same issue haha...He drove many thousand miles with it just for your information and never got the chance to swap the belt before he sold the car...

" Haha took the words out of my mouth....6mt is a pain to launch...but JB4 is so nice to have for this reason just limit boost in 1st/2nd "

" No way this post is serious "
