BUMP.... need the space, someone? Price reduced, there are Brand new, never fitted wheel sets. Contact details in the post
-
Id love the S54 engine and manual for my E28, but Im hopeful I wont need to pay for a whole car to get them.
-
Some "fence" to do that much damage?? Still, Im surprised this passed the checkmark as bad enough to be an insurance write off.
-
It was 110 pounds for the pipe and similar price for the filter iirc. Shipping was expensive too and plus vat. Price was reasonable pre shipping/vat 😂
-
I kinda want to see pictures of it, hes really cagey about it. Im dubious, and if its 320 pounds for some 2" alloy pipe segments welded together would be less than impressed.

MY father passed away the week before last. Still feeling rather sad. I know he would have wanted me to celebrate his ascension to the heavens but I just feel so ... worn. and fed up? I wish i could take a gap year...
-
I've found that after the initial sadness at such a situation, I too feel 'tired'. Try to eat well, sleep well, and get some exercise and fresh air.

I also washed mine last weekend, needed it! Have you enquired with BDS about their filter/intake pipe combo? Quoted me 320 pounds, for about a 15hp gain over a K&N filter with stock pipe which is pretty decent for a bolt on.

It mounts under the seat. One each side. Remove the seat, separate the carpet at the split and find it mounted to the floor. They usually die due to water leaks, so if the foam under the carpet is wet, then you can expect the new one to die over time.

Swapped pink top m52/s52 injectors in as I was having intermittent fueling issues, everything related to fueling has been replaced so this or the ECU was the last thing to do. Put in a new Fuel pressure regulator etc but nothing solved it. These injectors solved it. The car is smoother then ever and the power delivery is a lot better. I will be tuning this engine and running standalone engine management once my 2.8 bottom end goes in. I also redid the tail pieces on the exhaust and welded in these ones temporarily. I am off the UK on Saturday so I will be buying another Scorpion full stainless system to chuck on here and bring it back with me. I am going to miss my e30 so much. Took it down for a blast to Tauranga and back today to go pick up my DLSR camera from my mate. She went so smooth and I managed 464ks with over a quarter tank left so safe to say the fuel consumption has decreased.

I went and bought a new unit. It uses Linux instead of android. It still allows you to use android Auto or Apple Carplay. It allows a connection to the original BMW software so you can use this set the temp, playe the radio, check the oil etc. It hasn't arrived yet but I will do a review when it does.

Hi Team long time no post. Sorry been busy with business move, other side projects and abit lazy in the posting. So plans have changed a bit, The v10 will be saved for a nice oldschool bimmer, not sure which one yet. E46 M3 will be getting a N73 v12 motor from this beast. I will be on selling the m73 stuff to fund this swap. Also in the pipe line have this e46 330ci coupe. Looking at dropping my last 4.6 motor into it. Have an Elate supercharger adapter plate, water to air cooled. Modified AMG supercharger and 420g 6 speed box with my spare M3 rear end. Rear subframe plates and driveshaft hoops welded in. Stainless headers, engine mounts and gearbox x member. Just sorting out the oiling by modifying the x5 one. Cant wait to get this thing running. Thanks

Hello guys, I recently purchased a BMW G20 330i 2019 M Sport, and I've noticed that my fuel consumption in city traffic ranges from 15-20l/100km, with no hard acceleration(regular driving) and in comfort mode. I've seen reports of others achieving 8-10l/100km in similar conditions, so I'm a bit concerned. I've checked for updates, and the last software update was in 2021. Could this potentially be a software issue, or should I be looking into other factors? I want to ensure that everything is running optimally with my vehicle, so any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Head for the hills. There are many more good looking fish in the ocean.

I am still chasing down issues with the side impact sensor on the Z3. It was out of the car when i got it, and even after trawling through the internet and Real Oem, I can't work out where it actually sits in the car. The unit looks like this. Can anyone advise where it sits in the Z3?
-
The car is still under factory warranty. Get a PPI done, ask if the warranty can be extended (I think that’s possible?), negotiate on the price. After that, how far wrong can you go? It’s even the same colour I think?

1000%, planning on test driving a 2021 128ti at the BMW in Hamilton sometime this week… I drive a 2012 116i base model at the moment so would have liked to move up to sedan but it’s still a good option to stick with what I’m familiar with, whilst getting all the extra features of a 2021. Also it’s NZ New!
-
That’s what I thought so did the research and apparently it is all legal (why it’s legal is another question). I feel like that’s a very large red flag pushing the law to its full extent to take the piss out of the customer!
-
Even the $800 ORC they tried on me seemed steep, I told them I already own plates so don’t need them, would rather have first service done by BMW themselves so all they needed to do was a WOF; they still wanted the full ORC 🤔 edit: I’m not sure about the whole deal with ORC, if it’s legally required etc but I’m used to it not being a big deal, on my current car there was an issue with the wing mirror motor being broken so it wouldn’t fold and they waived ORC like it was nothing so I don’t feel like it would be all that hard for them to reduce it…
-
My thoughts exactly, especially being so hesitant to let me test drive yet messaging & calling me daily to see if I want to buy… if they are so desperate you’d think they’d do the bare minimum (test drive) to get me over the line. Appreciate the links!! My only issue with that sort of ties into the above with if something goes wrong there’s no CGA protection with a private seller I believe? Please correct me if I’m wrong!
