Some pic's after suspension install:

It's not too low in person - that driveway pic can be a little misleading. Its higher than my 525i on bilstein sport H&R sports but I have 3mm spring pads. His ride is WAY more comfortable than the suspension on my car, but I suspect that has a lot to do with the polyurethane bits i have.

This is true. Since the driveway is slanted, it makes the car look a tab bit lower. The true height of the car can bee seen in the airport pictures.

yeah that's basically how we feel. I am kind of curious of actual temps. Maybe sometime andrew will get it temp probed or will letme put my coolant temp sensor in his coolant circuit to see what the temps are on my laptop.

most def. want to get it hooked up to your laptop to see what the actual temps. are.

yes, I still have the ac condener isntalled. I don't believe it's a blockage of the radiaot because it started hapenning 2 weeks after the water pump was relaced, so myabe I'll make a trip over to the guy who did it asking what his procedure is. I don't understand what could go wrong with installing a waterpump that would make it slightly overheat in traffic though.

Nah, I doubt it. The guy's a master BMW mechanic and he used all new seals.
