So cool, can't wait to head up north and hit some trails. I was thinking hitting some lake trails in Bishop and then maybe barney riley and then snake lake trail.

Do I spy a catuned sticker?

 

[eurosonic]

Plenty of trails to explore in NorCal.

Yes, thats catuned sticker. They are my good friends.

Nice, never had the chance to talk or purchase anything from them but they are highly respected in teh E30 community. I was very close to talking to them about buying their convertible Mtech.

Also, what rack is that? I need a rack for mine and have sort of narrowed it down to rocky road wildrack but some advice would be great!

 

[eurosonic]

It's a Rocky road wilderness with custom mounts.

Great build! I really like the square line on the Montero's. Looks like a fun time in the mountains.

Btw, also another bmw fan here. Used to have a E30 325i and a E21 320is. Thinking about picking up a very clean 2002tii as a little side project.

Went out and hit the trail last weekend. Stayed out somewhere in Nevada, then made a loop back to north lake Tahoes Mt.Watson. But on the way we decided to stop by Reno for Hot August Nights.

Half way through the trip my speedo stopped working

Well here is the problem, speer gear for sensor gave up.



Good thing I have a spare



My rear output seal for transfer case blew so it spit most of the fluid out. Will be replacing the seal this weakened. Seal was $2!

really nice m3!! I've seen it before on your instagram. I'm thinking of getting one myself or a porsche 911 around the same value.

 

[eurosonic]

Yeah, a Porsche has been on my mind lately too.

Hey Euro,

How is your lift blocks coming along?

I am thinking about doing the same thing but I want to hear more feedback back from you.

They are in good shape. Just have to tighten the bolts every once in a while. Many members on this forum have them.

Looks like a fun little trip. Also, great view from Mt Watson :ylsmoke:

It was hell of a back read but what you did to that Monty is just pure awesome!

Here's mine, a 2.8 diesel field master from the Philippines.
