    Can the $30 a week be offset against tax?

    Tried Bellars again...…...success this time, I have the car booked in next week. I think maybe my initial email suggested tinkerer a bit too much. I know some garages aren't keen on DIYers. That's half the fun of having a project car , have learnt lots of new thing over the last few weeks

    Penrite HPR 5w 40 is on sale at Repco $47 for 6l. It says it is suitable as a BMW LL01 replacement. Good price for 6l of fully synthetic.

    Picked this beauty up in Rotorua from a forum member on here. What a rare colour being Malachite Green Metallic. Nz new. I plan to do a manual conversion and mtech kit on it and some nice wheels although the basket weaves look amazing. It will eventually get a full repaint. Too. Who else has an e28 or a lead on a manual conversion. The 535i has nice power I must admit.

    $8-10 a liter is normal price. thats why 320i arent very economical, because they burn more oil than they do petrol

    @_ethrty-Andy_ Usually worth asking for the 20l price for HPR5W40. You'll often find it works out at under $8/litre.

    I always find it funny when people get excited about tax refunds. If you'd like a bigger refund in 2021, you can pay me $30 a week for no reason, and ill give you back $1500 or so after a year.... Ill get to use your money interest free in the mean time!

    I've currently got 18x8.5's ET38 running 255's on the rear and it would be fine at stock ride height although ET50 ish would be better (less poke).

    Don’t need three V8’s, don’t need three V8’s, don’t need three V8’s. ?

    Hitting 6k already, how’d that happen? Couple of good runs for sure, Turangi pre lockdown, New Plymouth post lockdown. Just me and the M5 on that one, ? bash Mt messenger into submission. God damn thing is a beast when you unleash it, just pulls and pulls. only issue to date is the iDrive reset itself a couple of times on the run, it’s only CIC so likely I’ll update it at some stage anyway. After having non M V8s I can see where the money goes for the difference, it’s just unfortunate that you can only explore those limits too stupid crazy speeds. Give it the full jandel passing on the open road, ALWAYS fires the traction control up, on P zeros and will move to pilot sports when needed, which probably won’t be long ... Coded the stupid fed sound into the cabin out as well, it is pretty quiet but suits on long trips. I’d love more noise but ultimately it’s a five, it should define subtle power, I think it does that pretty good ? Off to Welly Friday, then the club run to castlepoint so feels like a service is coming, thosefront rotors are looking a little warn too ....... ? Best keep driving the i3 to pay for it ? all. Well it’s only money ?

    Have put on some genuine AC schnitzer type 2s temporarily until I find some style 5s or even OZ futuras. I missed out on a set of style 5s this morning because I thought too long about it. Haha

    Yeah, does look like it. However, it does seem a bit odd to adopt that policy AFTER someone has paid their bill ??

    My clutch setup was still running fine when I sold the car in 2018

    I'd just go to what has been proven to work for DIY applications. It's not like we have to enter F1 specifications to have a bit of fun and enjoy doing it.

    I hope they aren't like Mercedes ones I got for the motor home (Ebay) started cracking on the bench even before fitting. They didn't get fitted. Got a set from the UK instead.
