  1. Did anyone catch what it sold for? Got stuck at work and missed the auction
  2. If it was in the south island it would be in my drive already. I'd also be sleeping in it as the Mrs would kick me out but it'll be mine haha
  3. How much slimmer is the f series shaft? Did it slide straight on? I'm about to start a m62b46 swap on my e36
  4. Great work, any reason why you didn't go for one if the off the shelf conversion kits?
  5. Saw a tidy Type S for mid 20s yesterday, plus T conversion and you'd be set. I miss my old rs13, had a ca18det putting out 200kw but like many cars in the early 2010s got stolen from the centee of town during the middle of day whilst I was at work 😕 swore I'd never go back but turbo noises.... Wow missed that! I've seen a couple $1 reserve cars sell for about 10% less than what they were asking if that's any indication which way the market is headed short term
  6. Agreed, starting looking at Nissan s13s/180sx again after spending too much time on YouTube, 10k+ for some rolling bodies, 15k for one in bits. Even general consensus in that community is that prices are falling too

    M54b30 Rebuild

    How can you tell the difference in pumps? I've got this sitting around, brand new if it's any use
  8. Prob have to wait until an aftermarket one is developed. They aren't available on the m3 sedan either
  9. I've got a standard s50b32 midsection
  10. Common issue on these so dealer will be very familiar. Easy enough job if you've got small hands
  11. The king himself. He's getting plenty of hate on socials

    E46 Airbag Error

    No you don't. Disconnecting airbags when the vehicle is off will not bring up any codes so doesn't require it to be plugged in. Again, diagnosis was offered but declined by the customer, notes would have been made as such thus resolving them of any liability

    E46 Airbag Error

    Sometimes I think say stuff just for a reaction because you've proven yourself wrong here. The fault was preexisting which you've rightly pointed out therefore there is no legal or moral liability on the dealership as the customer declined. The dealership did the work they were authorized to do, and informed the customer. Also good to know that you are a master technician who is well versed in all diagnostic procedures and repair processes. I think you need to pull your head out of the sand and get back to the real world. The difference between the local Toyota and BMW dealership labour rate is about 15% so certainly not on the ultra premium as you put it.

    E46 Airbag Error

    Stunned in so far that they did what they say they would do? Maybe tirade is a little harsh but you certainly have a narrative against dealers which you love to push whenever you have a chance. But that's OK, take your ball and go home when things don't go your way cause you couldn't possibly ever be wrong

    E46 Airbag Error

    No just stating facts, reasoning behind the airbag recall has no link to whether the airbag light is present on the dash. Your anti dealer tirade is getting pretty tiresome

    E46 Airbag Error

    Airbag recall is about shrapnel flying at your face when it goes off so not related

    E46 Airbag Error

    Clock spring is likely suspect if horn isn't working. Does it multifunction wheel? Any of those functions working?
