Try Costco, they stock Bridgestone.

Cracked (f**ked) dash, $100.

Unless I’m wrong they’re on Rock Auto for $2.50-3.00 or thereabouts. https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/bmw,1977,320i,2.0l+l4,1011474,engine,oil+drain+plug,10231

There was an ‘05 Nz new 330i on fb last week with 215km and a warranty until ‘25. Now sold, they’re out there.

What are they out of? E46?

Remember Crunchy from here? He built a couple of BMW turbos at least.

There’s a diesel zf box on FB now for $2300.

Thought I recognised the headers!

I know, clear change. 54.6% of 5.7% of the voters, or 3.11% of the total.

Captures your Audi and most mid sized cars. Plus a big chunk of evs.

I saw that for sale. Hopefully a simple fix. I vaguely remember an issue like this that Ray (HellBm) fixed very easily. Maybe worth asking?

It was an insurance write off though wasn’t it? So rego would have been cancelled and need to be recomplied?

Do we know where this went?

It’s not that bad, mine went down in value about 11% and up in premium about 14-15% from memory. My in laws went up 39% with zero claims.

I agree, the Cybertruck looks like it was drawn by 7 year olds and by all accounts, built by 10 year olds.

I think you can take the whole emissions thing seriously when you no longer see ex Japan refrigerated trucks being driven around belching black smoke. I assume they will do this at some stage which will be interesting for all the egr/dpf delete folk.

That cost on plug ins must be close to eroding their advantage? My in laws won’t be happy with their new Outlander, that’s for sure.

There again today, about 1-2km south of Bombays.

Garagistic order of speedo gears and rear shock reinforcements arrived today after 5.5 weeks. Well, the packing slip did. Parcel cut open and taken. Who sends parcels with “Authority to leave?”

SC with some weird front bumper. Almost RSR?

Reviews are good and they are 70% off at Hyperdrive.

My Falcon Turbo was a good tyre tester. Had brand new Re002 on it, they were great until half worn, they were then so bad I replaced them. Had Roadking (Korean something), they had surprisingly good straight line grip wet or dry, but terrible wet weather grip sideways, possibly from the noticeably softer sidewalls(?). Then Continental something 5, sport I think. They were pretty good, although got a sideways drift out of a hairpin on the Coromandel road with family in the car that I wasn’t expecting, never felt great about their performance. Then my favourites, Pilot Super Sports, would have again, got destroyed by a cut in the road taking out a rim in the process.. Finally, some Federals, seemed ok, but sold the car before having much time with them. Cheap or relatively pricey, I still think they are a lottery, but agree that cheaper seems to equal worse in the wet in general.
