05 Apr Domestic Respect
Ford is not typically a common word around here, in fact I can count on one hand the number of blue ovals I've seen so far this year. While the car is not actually a Ford, it is Ford powered; with a 302 putting a...

After over a month of headaches and frustration the cars are here, in our possession, and the X5 and 7 have passed inspection and can finally be registered and sold. [caption id="attachment_3505" align="alignnone" width="625" caption="The X5 failed inspection the first time because it was too...
24 Mar FMU Big Brake Kits are here!
The Fluid MotorUnion brake line is ready to go, or stop, in this case. These binders are no joke, they are massive! Our initial set for the M3 is finally finished. Full production will begin as soon as we get some orders lined up. As...
23 Mar Middle East Blog: Never Again
This is actually one of OJ's entries from the first trip last year that got tucked away somewhere. I just ran across it again and it's worth posting even a few months late. Great read. We had just left the airport and were on the way...
22 Mar Epic BMW Rally Story
I ran across this story at Jalopnik and have to spread as much love as I can. Short story is Bill Caswell from Chicago found a loophole in the FIA rules that let him enter his 1991 318, which he found for $500 on craigslist, with...
19 Mar More Freshness & Cleanliness
The super clean E28 M5 is here again. It really is a stunning example of a mint E28. We know that the time and effort that can go into simply maintaining cars like this can really add up. My hat's off to guys who keep...

Fluid MotorUnion is taking velocity stacks to a whole new level. Here's some snaps of the new units fitted and tacked. If the anodizing works out gold wheels may have stacks to match. And if the intake sound made you smile before...
12 Mar So Fresh & So Clean
This 2003 M3 has been in before and was in again for regular maintenance. We also molded a lip into the front bumper and shaved the front markers while we were at it. This car is cleaner than when it rolled off the showroom floor....
09 Mar RS6 Snaps
It's just about finished. After months of engine headaches we finally have the built motor and rebuilt turbos in the car. It's running great and the customer finally has it back. After we get a good break-in we'll start pushing the tune and see what...
09 Mar E46 M3 Muffler Section
This is the muffler section of the custom exhaust we did for Jose's M3. We did a full 3 1/2 inch midsection out to this muffler setup. It probably has enough capacity to support double the current power output but the goal was a deep...
