Time to share the latest DIY, and while I am sure some will already know how to do this, some will not.

It's time for some easy basic maintenance or upgrades to support your performance work!

Changing your plugs is easy work and done with only a few tools and some time.

Easy, don't even need to the hood open for that.

I have a crank hub video up showing the process, just not as a DIY. No way, at least for me especially with too many special tools.

CBC was easy.

Not many tools needed for the full crank bolt capture; Amazon has N55 / S55 timing kits for roughly $200.

I bought one for my E36 M3 (S52) and it works great.

I'm seriously considering it

EXACT same kit on Amazon for half the price as well...

I did a CBC last weekend.. other than some really tight spaces, it wasn't bad at all.

I actually meant CBC in my previous post lol, let's say it was a little late...

But yeah, now I need you to remove it and do a DIY CBC from the top mkay, going through the front grilles can wait
