I looked at the engine side of the firewall and it looks like the rubber sleeve does not have any more room to accomodate any more wires. The instructions that came with the VDO kit say to cut one of the nipple. I do see some nipples under the jumpstart connector next to the hole where the battery cables comes through.

I must say the silver color does subdue the chrome upper kidney and brings it closer to my liking. The side character line while remeniscent of the Acura TL, does gives the car a dyanamic character. The WSJ article did mention that front headroom has been reduced. It'll be interesting to see how that plays out on the track with taller drivers. No observation was made about the lowest seat position. -Kevin ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 3 Jun 2005 16:46:08 -0400 From: "Dennis Liu" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "911" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "BMW List" <bmwuucdigest@uucdigest.com> Subject: World's *Greatest* garage sale. Ever. Ferrari is cleaning house! (NPC, NBC) Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> So, imagine if Ferrari decided to clean out its (many) garages, chock full of F1 and sports car racing parts and history. And when Ferrari was done cleaning, it looked at the giant stack of STUFF, piled up on the Fiorano circuit next to the factory, and realized that all of this cool stuff was preventing the F1 team from testing. So, instead of calling 1-800-HAUL-JUNK, Ferrari decided to hire a prestigious auction house and SELL OFF the detritus accumulated over the decades? How COOL would that BE?!? Well, it would be even cooler if I could afford anything that's for sale (I can't even afford the catalog, at $60!). But browsing the DOWNLOADABLE ELECTRONIC catalog is really, really cool (and free). What's for sale? Well, F1 racing cars. Sports cars. Road cars. F1 parts. Engine parts. Racing wheels. Harnesses. Trophies. Jackets. Just an amazing collection of STUFF. You could easily spend this weekend reading the catalog in detail. So if any of you are going, and if you decide you need a sherpa/porter to help haul your stuff home, give me a call!!! vty, --Dennis Go to this site and check it out: http://search.sothebys.com/about/pressrelease/ferrari/index.html [the link to download the .pdf catalog is at the top of the right column] SOTHEBY'S AT FERRARI Read the Press Release > SOTHEBY'S IS delighted to announce that on Tuesday, June 28, 2005, it will hold a landmark sale of cars and related memorabilia at Ferrari's legendary premises in Maranello, Italy. The sale will be held at 6pm in the Ferrari Logistics Building - birthplace of some of the greatest racing and sports cars ever produced - adjacent to the famous Fiorano test track near Modena. The first ever auction of such material to be supported by Ferrari, May's sale will include items ranging from historic memorabilia to some of the most important cars ever produced under the aegis of Enzo Ferrari and his successors - from early cars to some of the finest, fastest modern sports and racing cars ever to have graced the road and track, including the F2004 driven by Michael Schumacher in the first five Grand Prix races of 2004, all of which he won. The sale will be highlighted by the F2004, in which Schumacher won the Australian, Malaysian, Bahrain, Imola and Spanish races. The car represents a further evolution of the concepts already seen in the F2003-GA and a further step forward in the history of Ferrari single-seaters. When the F2004 appears at auction next May, it will be the first time that Ferrari has offered a Formula 1 car from the past season. The sale will also include the Maserati MC12, which won the 2004 FIA GT championship race at Oschersleben, the first victory for Maserati in 37 years. At the other end of the spectrum the sale will feature historic racing cars from many important moments in the history of the Ferrari name. Chief among the highlights of the historic cars in the sale, is the Ferrari 412S 1958 #0744, which has an illustrious past in North American racing, having been driven by giants such as Phil Hill, Richie Ginther and John von Neumann. This is without doubt one of the greatest cars ever to be offered for sale. Estimate available on request. Every car will be vetted by a Ferrari engineer, and a number of items in the sale will be offered direct from the company's own holdings. The Fiorano track at Maranello is one of the holy sites of the motor racing world, and access is normally strictly limited. Those attending the sale will, however, have the unique opportunity of following in the tyre tracks of champions and seeing where Ferrari develops all its F1 and road cars. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 3 Jun 2005 15:49:50 -0700 (GMT-07:00) From: Kevin Kelly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: bmwuucdigest@uucdigest.com Subject: E46 Hidden V1 Instal Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> A co-worker with an E46 M3 Cabrio is looking for tips on putting in a V1 with the unit hidden in the front of the car (he knows that it will not have as much range as a windshield installation but he does not want to take it down every time he parks the car with the top down).

Having instructed at various BMW-CCA and other Club's schools since the mid 80s I have had several sphincter-tightening experiences with students, including a trip into the guard rail @ speed with a student @ Lime Rock in 1990. Traveling at high speed while a student suddenly freezes with an unexpected brain-fart is a situation that an instructor has limited or no control over. There is simply no time for an instructor to react and implement ANYTHING EFFECTIVE at high speed. Joe Della Barba's statement below is correct. Once I had to instinctively reach over and yank the steering wheel of a novice student when another student careened out of control toward our car. That split-second decision narrowly averted a metal-to-metal incident that was NOT caused by my student. (Instructors understandably have lots of "war stories" about instructing experiences.) Control, as in CAR CONTROL SKILLS is the key. The ability to "Verbally control the car" at speed is a myth, wishful thinking, or highly limited at best. High speed drivers schools typically rush novice students to speed at these events. There is not enough emphasis on ensuring that these students possess enough car control ability BEFORE they begin to drive at speeds that they are not ready for. A few minutes of on-track exercises the weekend of the school is NOT ENOUGH INCREMENTAL TRAINING to turn these students loose on race tracks where minute real-time errors at speed make them and their in-car instructors pay with a dangerous outcome. The configuration of some tracks leave little room for error with unforgiving Armco or no run-off. The performance of current cars have amplified the problem. Cornering speeds are higher than ever. A lap time of the 1969 Trans-Am champion is now routinely run in a stock road car at a Club driving event. Staggering speeds are now routine. Imparting vast volumes of information to a student WHILE THE STUDENT IS DRIVING does not allow enough cognitive capacity for the student to absorb these skills during a weekend. The student can either drive or learn, but not all at once and simultaneously. Often the instructor is more of a distraction than an asset under these circumstances. In my experience at most drivers schools or speed events over three decades, the students are operating on an open track after scant minutes of car control exercises. This is the culture of these schools. A few schools have skid-pads and pre-requisite car-control training, but this is the exception rather than the rule. This pre-requisite training and evaluation should be before and separate from the high-speed event. The student's ability to control the car should be evaluated BEFORE the student turns a wheel on a race track at speed. But in reality this is never going to happen. I believe that a structure of far more intensive training as a pre-requisite for entering a high-speed event is a tool to reduce the risks, but there will always be risks associated with driving at high speed at these events. There is also no chance that the culture of rushing them out onto an open track will ever change.
