I took the car for a little test drive down the road and was VERY surprised at the power I cant wait to have a proper go in it, I still only have half an exhaust haha so couldn't really drive it to far without waking the town up  It now has an MOT and Tax too ! and the exhaust is booked in for Monday 22nd June, I am literally not able to contain myself just want to drive it now haha While I've been saving for the exhaust and tax etc I kept myself busy making some drift style gear sticks, I bought some cut bits of aluminium and tapered, Drilled and tapped them in my dads lathe. I made this one for my girlfriends Mx5 to start with:   Quite please how it came out, I'm now in the process of making one for mine but as you know the e36 has no thread so I've drilled the correct size hole in the bmw one and will be tapping a grub screw in the side to hold it on. I posted on a couple of forums on facebook to see if anyone was interested in buying one if I made more and a few people really wanted one, So I set up my page to be able to sell some when I have made some more  http://www.lifestylersuk.com | That looks great in the mx-5. If only my NA interior looked half that good! Can't really expect it to, because it's been a track car since it was delivered from the dealer (in 1992!)... __________________ James 95 active w/leather interior and sport interior conversion, Vaders, full M-Tech exterior conversion.
