I have a bunch of gangster bellends living up the road, Ive called the cops on them (111 and *555) over 6 times, I know the little street they live on but not the specific house. There are roughly 20 houses on it, so it wouldnt take the NZ police out sourcing to Sherlock to solve. Ive taken video and pictures of them. I bet you could eliminate those 20 houses down to the Housing NZ ones..... Ive seen one of them threaten another guy with a knife, I assume over drugs.. Last week one of them was driving a stolen Yamaha sports bike through a park (it had a screw driver in the ignition), got the rego and gave it to the cops. If you own https://www.carjam.co.nz/car/?plate=B2LSN I know where it is... They race dirt bikes in the parks and playgrounds in the area, tearing the snot out the grass and terrorizing everyone. Make a racket as well.. Yesterday they were over taking cars doing wheelstands, backwards and forwards like some sorta retarded game of chicken. Been going on for months. Nothing has happened, the cops dont turn up (biggest police station in the country is 5km away). Its totally ridiculous. I bet if I went and hit up a friendly "real" gang they would come and sort these dipshits out quickly. Next step is next time I call the cops Im either - A - Telling the cops I killed one of them and see if they turn up. B - Telling the cops they have a gun and see if they turn up. Maybe if they actually responded to crimes instead of dishing out 1kmh speeding tickets, they could get some better work stories.

Or they could have just taken it to a WOF place that actually looks. Doesnt mean much.

Thats awesome! I wanna go!

I did this 6.396s

Part 3 -

Definitely dont need a hoist, Its on top of the box, under the inlet manifold... However I suspect you would have to remove the inlet manifold which would mean new seals and new ali bolts. Coupla hours and ~$200US in parts.

No idea, I suspect if the plug is the same, it'll work. Pretty sure all the 1 series faceplates are the same (unless its an LCI?) .

Interesting what passes for a car these days.

Ex E87, Headunit is in mint condition, all works, no dead pixels etc. $50 (Think it even includes a free CD) Parrot handsfree kit, as removed, includes loom that interfaces with above HU and Connect2 canbus box for factory steering wheel controls. Works fine. $20

I tried to make that video 3 times, the first two I was just swearing and saying even dumber sh*t... Forgot to cover all the the stuff like RGB LEDs, the heated seats and other stuff menu, etc etc etc.. so once Ive figured out exactly what it does Ill probably make it a trilogy. Have only found one goofy thing so far, the door open indication is a mirror image.

I remember seeing that!

I missed out

ok then, if you say so.

Tempting...

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 ?
