Bump

Quick and dirty vid, complete with crappy editing. https://www.belsee.com/belsee-best-aftermarket-oem-bmw-e81-e82-e87-e88-2004-2011-autoradio-radio-navigation-android-dvd-player-stereo-gps-google-maps.html

Need to convert my Pre LCI to LCI so double din headunit fits nicely, so need the glovebox, and both LH/RH lower dash pieces (and probably some more bits..) in black.

Stick at em, they will fold. Dealers are scum, the only reason to buy from them is because the laws are on your side in a situation like this.

In Greely, Colorado. Saw it the next day in a different carpark, so it actually moves. There is something really funky going on the with the front axle...

After driving a 2016 6.7l 3600kg Ram 2500 for 3 weeks in Georgia, the 130i feels like an absolute razor blade weapon of a thing. So much steering feel! 100% the best upgrade to any car, is to compare it to something way less dynamic

Would even look at F20 M135/140 front calipers and E8x 135 rears if someone has an odd set. F20 front calipers are apparently quite a bit better than the e8x versions. Changing out the rear hubs to open up rotor options will probably cause wheels to rub unfortunately, so back end is somewhat limited in choice. Can still get the e8x BMW Performance upgrade kit (calipers/rotors/pads/backing plates) new for ~700gbp+shipping etc. Do you have some in stock @BM WORLD ?

Try Ebay.com.au , there is a superpro retailer on there that's significantly cheaper than everyone else (was sunshine coast from memory)

The trw M units are like $300nzd on amazon for all 4.

Boobs.

Bump. Offers

Belsee android 8 unit turned up, looks and feels good, plastics a bit "shiney". Buttons etc feel like original units, not cheap sh*t. Got called to USA for 3 weeks for work, but will make a vid review of all its tricks when get back.

1M is 2 door limited edition track toy, a 420 is a low end coupe Vs M3 which is top of the range? All over the place 420 is going to depreciate faster than the others get to 100kmh... Personally I think you would be mad to daily an M3, maintenance costs are not cheap. Id be looking at other models ending in 35i/d 40i/d etc

I had my fun with the CGA and the dodgiest slipperiest used car dealer in the land a few years ago - Stick to your guns, stay calm, and dont back down. They will cave in the end. Glenn here put in touch with the automotive equivalent of Liam Neesons character from Taken, who gave me a lot of good advice (and... information) .

Heya, can someone recommend me a suitably qualified vehicle valuer in the Auckland region, for insurance purposes on the 130i. Ami are being dicks and dont want to insure it for agreed value anymore, and "market value" is a load of nonsense that will leave me out of pocket/lsd

Fairly normal, I watched it do it in mine Heater on full noise and max fan seems to cook the coating on the plastic. Lid fell off water bottle on the way to job interview... Meguairs trim stuff and a brush fixed it.

60% of the time, 100% of the time I would rate cars 9.8%/10

Yeh Its dropped like 5k? I wonder if the dealers realised hes imported a problem...

New in bag, never opened - $40 shipped in NZ. http://store.uucmotorwerks.com/unlock-valvecdvclutch-delay-valve-delete-kit-p1381.aspx

SuperPro E8x/E9x PU bush kits SPF3940K and SPF3941K. Offset adjustable bushes for front control/radius arms. As new, with grease etc, $130 each couriered in NZ https://www.superpro.com.au/find/superpro-bushing-kit/orphan-SPF3940K https://www.superproeurope.com/part.number.cfm?partnumber=SPF3941K&vehicleid=1270&productreferenceid=125749

E92 M3 is what I use on the E87, which is the same as E9x geometry (bar the track width). Camber is somewhat adjustable at the front, with the slotted strut towers, not that many seem to bother though. I have -1.5 camber at the front with M3 LCAs and strut tops pushed in as far as they go.

Its back again. The bonnet/gaurd gap and odd looking paint matching (could be the pics) look much worse than the old listing. https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-1739378019.htm?rsqid=e121ed51c52e47f48794af24a5da2624
