bmw part # 6131 1393 844 cost $110+gst from germany through jeff gray anyone got a half wrecked car they could rip it out of for cheap? thanks.
-
Cool, most of the artists I searched for all the open dirs were from 2004/5, not the new stuff
-
Dude, that AC frton lip ... how would that mate up with a standard E36 front (320i)?
-
Well, $100 and some 10mm spring packers later everything is fine, passed the WOF this afternoon, thank f**k. ... now to look into the r/h sterring rack "slight play"
-
Yeah, when I saw them put the blocks under I was like, what the f**k? How the hell can that be at all accurate (within reason) ... I mean surely they should measure it with suitable equipment and give you a result if it is under the 100mm .. so you can get it fixed properly.
-
Yeah I'm going to hit them up about the legality of it all on Tuesday, at the least I expected them to tell me if it was under, obviously they just chuck the parts on and be done with it .... stay away from Mayhem Perf in the future!
-
Yeah bro, the springs you sold me, I dunno what the problem is eh .. its weird as :S
-
Howdy, I went to On Road down on Rangitikei Street, they saw me pull up and they all started talking amongst themselves like they were out to get me Yeah, Mayhem have down all the work, including swapping my sh*t jamex springs for Millers mint H&Rs. When I take it back to Mayhem to get the spacers fitted I'm going to say all of what you said ... I spent close to 4.5k in one go and I thought the least I would get out of that is a legal car ... 100mm etc.

Bad day gets worse. Took car in to testing station this morn. They picked over it for 40 f**king mins, while 5 other cars went through. The results were: Ground clearance to be 100mm - they couldnt even give me a f**king measurement, they just put a dodgy looking wooden block underneath the car, what the f**k? Front springs need to remain captive when raised ( which f**ks me off because the shop that has done everything for me assured me this was happening) ...and front wheels rubbing on inner guards. Went back to Mayhem Performace and told them what was going on, they said it would cost about $40 for them to put spring packers in and they also said that doing that should stop the springs popping out ... and raise it up enough so the front wheels aren't rubbing under the guards. BUT ... I had a thought and went to John Bates soon after, just to get some advice, they seemed just as vague as everyone else - one of the dudes couldn't be certain if resetting the springs would do much more than putting packers in to raise it up. I asked which would be the better option and he didn't say much (in the way of longevity etc), but $40 for packers installed as opposed to $250+ to get the springs reset (f**k I may as well buy some new DOBIs from John Bates). Do you guys have any input? Thanks heaps eh ... doing my head in, last time I just ask for wheels and susp to be put in without asking the finer questions!
-
Would you ship/sell the clear corners seperately good sir?
-
Pennzoil (or however it is spelt) FTW.
-
Hey jed, are you still around, I'm just after some clear corners for the front ...
-
Thread is useless without pics.
-
Sweet, thanks for the advice dude, much appreciated, I'll post back with my results
-
Thats the thing ... its chassis, near the front wheel, as far as I can tell its part of the chassis ... am I screwed or do I need to invest in some temprorary spring packers?
-
Howdy all .. taking the beemir for its first WOF (by me anyway...) ..kinda wondering a couple of things - 1) I measured the car last night and the lowest point is at the front .. and is around about 95-97mm, I know the limit is 100mm but what are the chances the testing station would pick that up? ie: do they get out their measuring tools etc. 2) There is a little bit of surface rust around the very edge of the left rear guard (where they were rolled) its not major but yeah ...? 3) Having to get a new headlight because the clips on the r/h side are all borked and its angling down just slighty ... would they pick that up if I didn't buy a new light? Cheers guys ... im just a n00b lol. Josh

Drive another car, get it checked asap and don't drive it ... gearbox issues aren't any to fvck with.
-
