    Orders for hardware arrived Tweeter mounts for inside of rear doors In door speaker connectors MQS pins and sockets for door connectors for new looms ( 0.75mm2 / 18 gauage wire versions ) Underseat woofer plugs with pins to accept 2.5mm /13 gauge wire ( Standard bmw size and massively over specified ) 120 meters of single 0.75mm2 cable ( door speakers ) 40 meters of single 2.5mm2 cable. Was trying to get AVSS wire which is high temp thin walled insulated copper cable made for wiring looms . Settled on some esoteric wire that is oxygen free high grade copper plated in silver. It also runs thin walled teflon so rated to 150c . Ideally headroom for a car where the interior gets hot in the sun. I doubt I’ll be able to hear any difference between silver tinned and copper cable. But not much of a price difference between it and AVSS. 18 uf capacitors These are for bass blockers for tweeters that will be running active . I should have possibly used higher capacitance value for the 4 ohm tweeters which will run from 3500 hz. Should have used a value an octave down from this point , but read some bad advice for using a blocking capacitor that is twice the value of the FS or resonance of the tweeter. Will explain this a bit later when I do the house curves for each speaker.

    At that mileage there are too many potential causes - fuel pump, injectors, coils, turbo, the list is long. Read the codes and see what is triggering limp mode, then you can work out what to check first. Without the codes as a guide you are in the dark.

    Finally got to take a week’s holiday from work, went to Mt Maunganui for a few days with the wife for some R&R on the beach. Now looking at properties for sale at the mount and wondering if we have enough savings to retire on 🤣

    Get Kodi and borrow a mates SkyGo details. Maybe pay some of their bill to cover it. There are no issues with shared accounts with Kodi + SkyGo. Too many subpar subscriptions in NZ to see the few shows that are worth watching. So glad Plex and Kodi are a thing.

    Friend got his 318is back for the panel beaters. Brand new OE fender, fender lining, side skirt, trims, side indicator and engine mounts, all repainted with a 2nd hand door. 7k bill (paid 10k for ~14 year ago). Very lucky it was through an unusual insurance outfit and wasn't written off. Getting hard to find tidy ones these days.

    Upgraded the work (and play) from home office as I decided the E30 wasn’t enough of a money pit. As close as I’ll get to driving Group A DTM E30 M3!
