The fun continues , today was mancave day on the 530 for: Upper rear suspension wishbones (right side was going to fail next WOF), new radiator (original one still in car, not happy with fit of new one, Schmiedmann claims its OE quality but the shroud not quite right, it's in though..), and exhaust bracket replaced due to breakage. Lucky I parked the other e39 out front as an emergency trip to SCA was needed for more tools... also had to hunt high and low for a nut to fit exhaust bracket, happy to say there's a little bit of HQ Holden in the Beema...

Nanna’d it from Auckland to Gisborne. 3/4 tank of fuel used which worked out to be 10.4l/100km according to the obc.

little update fitting the sc kit

F@#& dude, I really hope 2018 works for you, the end of '17's really let you down!

Replaced coolant in e36 328i. Was under car last night with it sitting on two axle getting to back engine engine drain. Hear tell tale low frequency rumble and move quickly. Sure enough small earthquake hits with a joilt(3.8) as iI’m moving out from under it. Car moved a bit on stands but all good. Let coolant to drain and contemplated getting back under the car again for quite a while ! Added a spare wheel and trolley jack into the mix.

this guy is quite controversial with his views but I think he's spot on the money this time.

yes higher flow injectors , havn't looked up on the spark plug specs , they just came with the kit

Interesting thread. That Aussie is hilarious. It's worth noting however that his maths is based on electricity being "85% hydrocarbon generated" which is a poor indictment on Australian energy production and skews the numbers wildly. However I think a lot of what he says has merit. I also think it's an oversimplification to make this a mineral verses electric discussion, science has moved on. What we should all be able to agree on is that, as a population, we need to increase our relative use of renewable and sustainable energy source and strive to reduce our dependencies on depletable energy resources. Does anyone (other than Trump) not think that's a good idea? Nuclear fuel cells I say. And bumper stickers that say "No tailgating, I'm carrying a NUKE!".

Set the car up for Hampton downs on the 29th

D'oh!

Brand new in wrapping Febi Bilstein pair of sub frame bushes for E28, also fit E24 and E23. Was going to use for my reshell but not going ahead. $80. Pickup from Panmure or can post at buyer's expense.

Did something in my new shed for a change.

All I know is- if you can see the mountain, it's going to rain. And if you can't, it's already raining!

Ignition Switch.

probably failed

Doubt it, he probably has taste

Busy 10 minutes. I converted it to RHD..
