Oldie but a goodie. Mate of mine driver Owen Evans went to the ring years back and purchased vid from race shop there. He says he was told ex rally ace Walter Rohrl was the driver he was porsche test driver at the time.[makes sence]. Car was around 750hp 4speed.

Sounds like lower inner track control bushes. -

Just ordered dual vanos teflon seal replacement upgrade kit for my E46 cold start idle surges from Beisan Systems. Any of you guys with M52/54 engines have cold idle or low RPM bog issues? Stock vanos seals degrade due heat and synthetic oils allowing oil to bypass vanos pistons, especially sprung loaded exhaust vanos effecting torque and linear power curve. Said to be a problem after 20,000 mls.

Impressed, well done! Maybe asked before, what is diff between M50 and V8 eng weights?

Imported mine 2.5 years ago from Japan with history 40kms on clock. On road for 14k, do the maths, never missed a beat, not a mark on it!

Anyone had this before? Started car normal this morning, drove around 100m on road noticed drop in power and EML fault light. Limped home. Disconnected battery, removed and cleaned MAF with contact cleaner. Reconnected battery after 30mins, drives fine now! Any thoughts? Maf on way out? Cheers.

Maybe my age slowing me down, but a 200hp TQ engine in a luxury sedan, car was designed for auto. Heavy car nice to drive, manual- no. Thats wat the M series is about! If I want to clutch in traffic 300hp is the cross over.

E46 auto has lower ratio diff than manual, probably quicker in straight sprint.

You need this for your collection Brent!

Would have thought five minutes would give you some direction!

My E46 328 with 30mm drop- Voglands X Keith. Big diff to ride and cornering. Thats not a good look you have at moment, looks 4WD clearance. Sure you will sort, don't skimp on good steel, they will soften.

Type error for sure. Simota panel filter element is $49.95.

True to form! What a cock. Time waster of his own auction.

No matter how good the car is could you bother with a d*ck like this?

Good Kms for a 2002. Appears by other items he is selling maybe cashing up.

Some serious rotors! Not to sure on the 'HOOD' tints tho.

50% discount on headers to bimmer members with purchase of this vehicle.

Had a look on realoem, front pipe to header flange is the same. So length is only issue. From runner four lower stud hole to outer header flange bolt hole is 24cm. Unit weight is 4kg.

Not 100% sure myself. Sure someone will know.

Thanks Boris, they are well made! Certainly will be an upgrade to the ugly cast units out there.
