I think if it comes to that point (where I have to go at it with a pry bar) I think I'll just reassemble everything and drop it off at a shop like an abandoned child lol Oh and I was worried about the partially compressed spring bouncing out of the seat and hitting me in the face not the pry bar itself. But yeah I knew the Ti had the same semi trailing rear arm setup as the E30 and z3, that's part of the reason that I got the car in the first place, I like the handling aspects but wasn't anticipating the issues it would cause. I just wish that some place just had a shorter compressor to loan, that seemed like such a simple option to just compress the old spring to take it out and slip the new one in.

It depresses me that you have red boxes, so +rep. It does look good which is why I was so surprised to see it in the FS section. I'd buy it but even if I sold my car and everything on it I couldn't raise enough money

Thanks, man. Yeah, I decided to hold on to it. I ran into some crazy expenses with our house and thought I was going to have to sell it. At least I'll finally be able to take it to Summit Point and tear the shit out of it!

I'd love a dakar coupe,but i doubt that will ever happen.I've been so close to getting so many of them and it never goes through.So i figured this is my chance.

I'll keep my eyes peeled, but dakar is a difficult color to find as I'm sure you know, I found a dakar M3 in roanoke for sale but it was like 9k.
