man ur parents are mean. My mom thought the car was too fast the second i drove it off the lot (she wasnt with me when i did) and now she doesnt want me buying anything for it that will "increase the speed" as she put it retardly. So has no power over what i buy with my money. So far i have an intake and underdrive pullies, M50 manifold is on the way and she cant say shit about it.

damn. the catch for me is the fact that my father's name is on the title. Legally, it's his car, though he never drives it. Besides, once it's mine, i'm selling it to buy an M.

Go to wall mart and buy some 40$ 16inch tires. Then eather go to a junk yard and pull out your own box or get one off ebay. But since your not able to find your power steering cap under the hood you might want to have a shop install the box for you. Since your selling it why do you care what parts go into it?

because I still have to drive it for a year or so - I don't want to have crap parts on it. with the way I drive, a junyard box will be gone in a month or so. As for "not being able to find" the power steering cap, the manual for the e46 doesn't even list one as existing, nor point out where it may lie under the hood. Neither me nor my dad could locate it. And we are far from being mechanically disinclined.

Its the 8 or 9 pointed lid on the direct right of your oil filter. It says "ATF only" on the cap.

ATF = Automatic Transmission Fluid, no?

it's a moot point, really. I took the car to Harrison Motorsports, and they're replacing the steering box, though for less than the dealer. I should have the car back tomorrow.
