Link doesn't seem to work. Which pick a part was it at?

Not bad. Under the threshold too. Or does Schmiedman collect GST?

I'm just over the hill from you. We could look at combining orders to save on shipping. I am guessing each order would be over the $1K GST threshold anyway. I want to buy them asap.

Has anyone been happy with just replacing the old factory Sachs shocks with new factory Sachs shocks? My commuters are old and harsh. https://spareto.com/products/sachs-shock-absorber/317-566 or https://spareto.com/products/bilstein-shock-absorber/22-144256 I don't really want to go to an expensive kit for this car. Just a refresh that doesn't flop from side to side over the Remutaka and can handle driving through the beautiful roads of Carterton..

The 640D would be my pick. It was an option right? https://www.facebook.com/share/18on6YQHfe/

Awesome. Good to hear you sorted it. The relay may have had too much current drawn through it at some stage. It can cause the contacts to arc and build up little bits of metal which can catch or be so close that they touch when there is vibration present. I have just been dealing with this at work. Found a 100-150mA draw that was being caused by this relay being both closed and open. This is super magnified as the relay is only about the size of your little finger nail. But you can see the build up.

Meh. 130i Manual money.

It is a good thing to reset your adaptations of the gearbox and follow the re-learn process too. (Make sure it is the GM process not the ZF process) You should end up with a much smoother changing box with no flaring between 3rd and 4th. I'm just about to service mine again soon. It is just starting to flare.

One for you. https://www.e30zone.net/e30wiki/index.php/Converting_to_Motronic_1.3

You can convert your car to 1.3. I did that many years back. There may even be a guide on here. Swap out entire loom. Which on an E30 is not that difficult.

Yes. It's this entire sub.

Yeah this is what makes me suspicious of his claims. Nothing he is doing there is any form of manipulation. Jaycar use to do a kit that you could build that allowed you to intercept the A/F input and output whatever you like (lying to the ECU). I had one of these kits back in the early 2000's. Without a wide band A/F sensor you are risking your motor. I found out the hard way. The unit failed and ran my motor lean while at the track. Piston melted. I have a piggy back MAP ECU2 in my E34. It is probably going to be replaced as I develop the car. But it has been good for what I am doing. https://map-ecu.com/

I honestly don't think he would be manipulating any of the data. He seems to be just using the script to visualize and scale the pulse count. You could use this to make a display/gauge. @hybridan old Bimmersport member on here was building a nice display system for his E30. Have a did back to see if you can find the posts. If you wanted to cheat without having to write any code you could pick up an old mapecu2 which is a piggy back and use their UI to monitor anything required for tuning or switch/trigger states.

It looks like simple pulse counting of a hall effect sensor monitoring RPM. More likely he is simply intercepting some of the sensor inputs. Was quite common with old piggy back ECU's.
