Word. I hate arcade fps games like MW and MOH. They are for kids.
-
Phax going for an afternoon drive. lol.

Just came across a music vid that features a E30 Cab. Not a bad clip too. Has boobs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cdPdbSVSX4...feature=related

Will have to wait and see. But if it is true and they don't push out the bloody release date again I may look at a PS3. Will have to get a wheel though as the PS3 controller is horrid.

Guts. Make sure you get out among the boy racers on Friday and Saturday night. If the douche is still driving it he may attend. Sadly this is why I sold my 180. The wrong crowd love them. That and the new breed "pull a phat dirf bo" owners. Good luck to your mate.
-
Yeah I have one. Is all complete still in the car. Factory manual car. Make me an offer. Would have to pull it out though as I am quite busy.

Would love a 335d estate. They had one in at Team McMillan a few months back in Motorsport form. Black too. Mmmm. Same tourqe and KW as my 540. Was $114k though.

where-else aside from dealers can I get black grilles

Pretty sure Seth at Car Folie would have wrapped them for less than that. And with the wrapping it would reduce the chance of stone chips. He does Gloss or Matte. The ones on his M6 look great. -
Yeah there was plenty of people wearing their packs on their front on the tube in Rome. But the stories get more and more far fetched every tour I can imagine. But Rome has to be the Gypo/Pikey capital of the world. They are bloody everywhere. We saw some of them trying to get hit by cars on the crossings. Just thought they were playing silly buggers. But apparently you can sue the drivers if your hit on a crossing.
-
Just like the age old Rome Tube gypo robbers who would biff their baby at you while there kids are nicking your sh*t. Load of crap.
-
Yeah the bumpers have nothing to do with the look of the arches. The PFL arches are a different shape altogether. If I was you I would not worry about silly things like this. Or even making your car look pretty. My car is the ugliest in the bunch and still came 9th last season with a weak motor. Spend your time and money of things that matter and get you racing.
-
Stuff that. I have just taken one out of the parts car. And once it comes back from its build I need to take out the old one and put in the new one again. I am over it even if it is easy.
-
It takes me longer to jack the car up and get it onto jack stands than it does to have everything unbolted and ready to pull. Takes 10 mins to pull it out. By myself. It is dead easy with the PFL. I just leave the loom attached to the motor, undo the power steering pump and clutch slave. Driveshaft, exhaust headers, radiator pipes and unit, push gear shifter through hole, gearbox mounts, engine mounts. Pull out. Though the first time is much different. Especially if you try to do silly things like split the motor and box while in the car and you don't own any torx keys.

Spose you will be climbing all over it huh.
-
Mate got one of those chineese knock off screens from smith and smith. Was like you were wearing someones prescription glases. They also used the ugliest generic seals I have ever seen.
-
Nice wheels. Too low. Function over Form is what E39's should be about.
-
Ugly little hatchback. Replacement for the TI but twice as homo imo.
-
Jono51 this was not a post for you to hijack to sell your parts. Your posts have been deleted. If you want to offer parts put them in the for sale section or send a PM to the person directly.
-
Idiot things previous owners have done to your car.

My black E39 had its bonnet and boot painted. The paint was so cheap and it was such a poor job that it cooked during the summer. I also have an E30 parts car that has had 6x9 holes cut in the rear parcel try. And it looks like they used a blunt axe to do it. -
Yeah I thought so too. I tried it with both a G25 and Xbox 360 controller on PC. And the drifting was just horrid. Was actually a different physics setting for the drifting part of the game. Is a good step in the right direction for the NFS franchise though. Couldn't stand those FNF style games. RFactor2 is coming out soon. Once again it won't be on par in the graphics department. But it will be far superior in the physics and sim area. If you want some sim fun should head down to Hyper Stimulator with some mates. http://www.hyperstimulator.co.nz/gallery.html Would love one of those machines at home.

Thought it would be a laugh to see what needs replacing on everyones BMW's. Just a list of things you would like to replace or maybe that you need to replace and plan to do so. Just realistic things that you could do in a few days if you had the time and money you needed right now. Should be a good read. I will leave out my race car as that needs around half a car at the moment. So here is what I need and want for my E39 540. Need Rear Right wheel bearing is noisy as heck. Heater control valve as the passenger side is stuck full hot. Drive shaft hanger bearing from all that towing. New cam cover gaskets New shocks New tyres Want Damage on Rear Right repaired Paint on Bonnet and boot done Front and rear bumpers painted Wheels repainted Tinted windows (getting on Thursday) Few of the door seals are getting a bit on in life But other than that she goes well. lol

Get a new girl and family to be honest.

Just put a roll cage in it. Whats with the fixation on Airbags. Early Airbags did a whole heap of F-All on many Jap cars. Will try find you the article.

GT4 was a massive fail. Most of the settings you could adjust actually did nothing. Things like adding a 2 way LSD to a car that already has a LSD from factory still ends up being a single spinner. Try doing some dough nuts. GT Prologue was just a PS3 version of GT4. IMO the physics engine is what will make or break a Arcade/sim like Forza or GT. If all the cars handle the same like in GT4 and Prologue then people don't enjoy it as much. Prologue felt like you were trying to steer a supertanker through Auckland CBD.
