What's happening is the BMWFanatics forum is merely telling your browser what to do. It's giving your browser a ton info saying: Here, show this. The forum isn't actually loading the images, your browser is. Pretty much all the images you see are just links which your browser loads. The browser will receive data from the forum for an image like this:
Code:
<img src="http://www.bmwfanatics.co.za/images/smilies/2011/=).png" />

If you register on imageshack and have your browser save the details it will automatically log into imageshack every time it needs to load an image from ImageShack.

Wow this is epic. :thumbs:
If your car already struggles with traction like it did on the exit of the Shell garage on the last hot chocolate run, then I wonder how it will be tamed once all the other mods are executed

Hmmm... not sure then. It used to work for me when I had FireFox save my ImageShack account details. :dunno:

So what George is basically doing here is taking a already aggressive bulldog and putting it on steroids. :rollsmile: This is going to be epic.

I am going wide body with 335's in the back. Will post up pics. When I left shell I dropped the remotes for the exhaust so that's the sound when they closed. Did give the stressing a jerk to side step though hehe need to practice.

So the time came to strip the car down and build the motor.

Innocent looking 335 in the background.

All the pipes removed and only the harness left. I decided to unplug the harness at the ECU and remove it when the motor is out.

Balancing the box for removal.

Right side branch was catching even though it was loose so out it came.

Eureka. Its out time to package and ship to Weistec for strengthening.

What the bum end looks like.

My wife walked in and blurting something only a woman would say. I didn't know you can make a sentance with looney and crazy. My staff had a laugh.

Easy does it. First technical difficulty encountered. It wouldn't clear so we had a blonde moment wanting to lower the car again. Two minutes later I closed the garage door and we had a extra 40 cm's

On the way to the engine stand.

I have been having great fun. All in all this didn't take no where as long as I thought. Next lot of pics will be taking the motor appart in order to fit these puppies and the heads.

Keep the updates coming :praise: What's the time frame on the gearbox George?

Should be back in three weeks. I can save some money if I make it five weeks using non direct flights etc. I am going on Holiday for August and part of September so am only planning engine assembly and fitment around mid September. Will then run the car in Naturally aspirated and bolt the charger on once that is done.
