I believe that this photo taken on the 18th of April 2020, was the last time I had the car in a registered, drive-able state. I'd say my intentions, like a lot of other people's, was to use the mandatory periods of isolation to fix a f issues I'd been ignoring. The M52B28 that I had swapped in was either using or leaking a good litre of oil for every tank of fuel. The amount of oil vapour that I could see evacuating my crank case vent was also a daily point of concern for me. I'd always hated the clutch in this car. It was a unit that I'd got second hand in a bunch of parts - a heavy duty Sachs clutch for an E28 M5. The poor feel may have been my oversight for not finding a clutch slave with an appropriate bore diameter to accommodate the hydraulic pressures needed to make this thing feel acceptable. My steering also did not re-centre itself properly upon exiting corners and felt all-around very disconnecting. I believe this was due to a missing plastic spring isolator on my left fortune auto coilover, a worn purple tag steering rack and no orifice to restrict pressure in my high pressure power steering line. I also had not made the step to fix my rear toe-in that I had gained from lowering my car, I believe this made the driving experience feel extremely twitchy. I'd say the most concerning thing I'd noticed was a large clunk upon harsh acceleration and a sensation that felt similar to the car stepping out.. but with no note-able tyre slip. When pulling the car apart, I noticed that I was missing two diff carrier bolts effectively allowing my entire diff to rotate in its cradle. I'm really glad I didn't die from this.
