I changed the oil today (for the first time) on my E30. Well it's actualy the first time ever!

Ended up being more work than I had imagined it would be. But worth every second. First time's doing something new is always a bitch. Next time it'll be easy peasy, eh?

:D

Well I'm going to do the valve clearances this weekend, so I guess I'm already moving along quite fast.
