  1. Weird, mine are Eibachs.. so there is still 3 B1 versions What diameter are the bars?
  2. Ive got the same splitters, same deal.. not perfect fitment but they are cheap. You'll soon find that they are are wear item, I'm on my second set (Spirited driving down Old Taupo Road at 2am and they meet the tarmac..)
  3. Kick ass!! Looks great, We are going to have to see if Red or Yellow brakes work better Curious on the H&R springs with the B1 kit, have they changed from the Eibachs?? (That would make it 3 different B1 versions...) MILVS, a tune and headers are next on my todo list, so will follow closely.
  4. I bet the marketing guy who wrote that waffle was crying all over his keyboard whilst typing, wondering where he went wrong in his career path. Its the polar opposite of all those things, its about as charming and elegant as Trump wearing crocs and a mankini.
  5. Saw one of these on the motorway yesterday - https://www.bmw.co.nz/en/all-models/x-series/x7/2018/bmw-x7-inspire.html I had to take a second look, thought it was one of those offbrand chinese copy things of other prestige cars.. but it was a real BMW... BMW have seriously lost their way, what a monstrosity.

    Quick Questions

    Attach a lever to a long arm, thats hooked up to the seat, so when you sit down the lever pushes an arm that presses the button. Or you could just press the button ?
  7. Or its more of a basket case than it appears...
  8. E90, complete with M stripes, nurburgring stickers, and quad remus exhaust tips... RH side ones didnt go anywhere and appeared to be glued on, but I appreciate the effort in keeping that much thrust balanced.
  9. Im over here bouncing off 300,000km... ? If its been looked after 200,000 is no issue, they age well. Its probably a good buy at 7500 if its solid mechanical shape, id be looking at things like the throwout bearing, DMF, clutch and suspension bushes (as well as the usual oil leaks, particularly the sump, as the others are easy and cheap)
  10. It fluctuates a lot, between 80 and the highest ive seen is like 105, you can watch it change modes in realtime during an italian tune up (where it drops temps the more "italian" the tune up )
  11. Yup, pretty clever beasty. The oil pump in them is clever from an engineering standpoint too, all mechanical and able to vary its output as needed.

    BMW Carly App

    Yeah I had it its pretty goofy (it exploded my FRM, made all the tail lights on car go crazy), support is sh*t, and the subscription model is horrendous. I cancelled it. Bimmergeeks protools is light years better, does all the same stuff and more, and is a one of purchase. Very recommended.
  13. I keep looking at AW11 MR2s, Subaru Alcyone XT/Vortexs, and Porsche 944s. I think I have a problem (and also like cars that consist of straight lines)
  14. I dont understand why anyone buys a new car ?
  15. Thats got to be one of the cheapest 1Ms in the world?
  16. Got some interesting bits on it, looks like ACS spoiler and some random front bar - https://www.turners.co.nz/Cars/Used-Cars-for-Sale/bmw/1-series/20321543

    Quick rant thread.

    Reality is if anyones charging less than $50 for a wof, they're making their money elsewhere...

    Cheap 130i

    Now for sale for 10k on faceballs I see
  19. Depends if its been stacked or not, and if those little canard things have been tek screwed in
  20. ISTA Is a bit of pig with real virtual com ports, I can imagine it being even more of a pig with virtual virtual com ports
  21. https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-2685592122.htm? - Im guessing thats had the front end shoved in at some point.
  22. No tape deck either... bastards.
  23. Wow... yeah those are trash! Noise is odd, Ive never head that one before. Sounds more like a resonance from something rather than an injector? I havent had any luck with any of the "accelerator" triggered resets, ISTA and bimmergeeks protools can definitely do it.
  24. Videos set to private - what coils did you get? You'll hear the valvetronic motor move to the extremes after a reset, it hits the stops, if it did that it worked.
