  1. It's possible, but I would just buy the polisher. https://www.supercheapauto.co.nz/p/toolpro-toolpro-dual-action-polisher-240v-720w-150mm/581559.html https://www.supercheapauto.co.nz/p/meguiars-meguiars-ultimate-compound---450ml/214309.html?cgid=SCN8005310
  2. Don't need to watch it, I'm sure it's the one parked in my driveway!! ?
  3. Not that I watch this much, but I honestly like the new guy more

    I saw you driving this today. Looked good! GLWS
  5. Any pics of the 19s? LCI on the F30 19's is a great combo!
  6. Looks great! I used to really hate the wood, but maybe with age I hate it less? Mint car. Any more plans?

    The 4 door looks great! It's a shame BMW missed this generation. The coupe is driving the best it has in 7 years / 80k now Ray! Thanks Sam / HellBM for the new dampers, steering coupling and diff/motor oil services. Feels like a new car.
  8. ^ an oil and filter changed by the dealer is no different to an indy... It's the extras, if any, you could pay a dealer premium for. (And you'd likely just go for it seeing as the car is already there - hence they whole point of this campaign).
  9. For a TV show like this, I thought it was pretty good and detailed. I learnt some things from it! An alternate way to view it is paste the link in a downloader site like: https://y2mate.com/youtube/5ZL96uDowZM
  10. ^Fair point. Assuming you use a calendar for practical purposes. I'd just use it as an excuse to hang cars on my office wall.
  11. If you don't like washing / waxing your car and want easy maintenance it is good. If you are paying for a detailer to do it, you are really paying for the prep, which is legitimately hours of work to do 100%. It is especially good on wheels, I would definitely recommend that. But personally I like wax/sealant better. And it performs as well during it's life time. There are dozens of options, DM me if you like.
  12. I'd buy one, and it would probably sell internationally if it was done well
  13. Thanks again. Didn't get pinged for import duty or GST. I've noticed some places seem to fly under the radar. ECS Tuning is not one of them, been charged every time.
  14. This is the set up I think I am going to go with. Koni + OEM springs. $760+$140 USD shipping form ECS tuning. It's annoying FCP Euro don't stock them as I have never been pinged on import with them. I've emailed George Stocks twice with no reply - if anyone knows a better place to source, please let me know. Cheers
  15. I kind of get that in a way. That plate riveted in does give me a bad buzz - it looks tacky / irreversible. But I agree he'd be better off just selling it stock and selling the KWs separately - he'd get more that way too.
  16. Good tip - I'll check them out thanks! I'm not too worried about longevity - what is it, like 5 years until they would need to be done again? (It's probably been 17 to this point!)
  17. What up! Looking at a refresh of my suspension / dampers as I am assuming they are toast after 180km, (hard to know how bad they really are right?) I've read a lot of international forum suspension posts, but interested in the 'local road' feedback and what everyone is running? I'm trying to keep it affordable, simple and comfortable for a daily. Options that seem to be be most popular I am considering: Sachs OEM replacements (comfortable, but am I missing the opportunity to 'upgrade') Sachs with Eibach or Dinan springs (lowered car compromises?) Bilstein B12 kit AKA B6 dampers with Eibachs - apparently the B6 alone will raise the ride height - I don't want that. Koni (with maybe with Eibachs or Dinan Springs) - getting dearer Keen to hear anyones NZ experience / opinion. Cheers

    ^ Well it is reminiscent of a Maserati
  19. Family member got scammed by this. No better than a quality wax / sealant IMO. Ceramic coasting work and last much better. You can DIY, it's not difficult.

    PS4s placebo ride a bit smoother than PSS?

    Gull 98

    Does Mobil 98 have ethanol? (I heard it was the same blend as Gull?) I've been running Gull and Mobil for 70,000km with no issue.
