Latest and most exciting upgrade to the garage so far! Be sure to watch my video on my new Swisstrax flooring. This stuff is simply the best. Total transformation and a 6+ year dream come true.

Looks amazing! First thing I did when we bought our house is do racetrack floor in the garage before moving any crap in. Previous owner had some leaky cars and epoxy wouldn’t have taken. It looks so clean all the time and holds up well.

Thank you! Make sure you check out todays video. I actually do a bunch of testing in it and rolling a jack around and jacking up the car is one of the things I do!

Thanks! It's amazing what a simple floor can do. Such a great way to clean up a garage floor without committing to something more permeant.

I might even drive up from Maryland for something like this

Added some Project Kics lugs to the new wheel setup. Small detail, but it all ties in nicely.

I don’t plan on tracking this car at all. Put too much into it. I am looking to pick up something else as a weekender/track car. Probably another e46 M3.

Perrin Pitch Stop mount install! I have the perrin pitch mount coming as well, so that will be a separate video.

Installed the Perrin Pitch Stop Brace to combat the common issue of the firewall bracket from failing due to a stiffer pitch stop. Rough install, but we got it done!

The TC105x looks great - I love the accent you did with the hub centric ring and lugs!

Subaru STI Perrin Pitch Stop Mount Brace Install - YouTube
This was one of the first few modifications that I performed on the car when it was mostly new. I installed this brace Spring of 2017 and did not properly bleed the clutch-cylinder. None-the-less, somehow driving the car was not an issue until about a year ago during 2020.

I have since attempted to bleed the clutch with some success, however now that I've watched your video, it's time to go to HF and buy one of these vacuum bleeders.

Thank you for updating your journal.
