hybrid 1043 Report post Posted September 22, 2013 Pretty much my new favorite car on Bimmersport. Well done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaveO 47 Report post Posted September 22, 2013 Thanks guys, yeah I'm really enjoying the colour, something new from my blue one. A few things need doing, all of them minor though, like a tiny bit of stitching on the drivers seat needs fixing, a few dead pixels on the head-deck, a small paintless dent removal job on the bonnet. I'll get it all fixed up over the next little while. I noticed a bit of oil around the diff when I put it on a hoist, but not leaking any, maybe it was over-filled or maybe a seal is going, but will need to monitor it. Everything else on the car feels great Will be going in somewhere for a WOF/service in october and will get them to check it all over. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaveO 47 Report post Posted September 23, 2013 Thanks guys! Yep kept the P-Plate [ V8M ]. Yeah I'm keen to bring it to a meet / dyno day. Especially a dyno day - when's the next club one and how much is the usual cost? Which dyno do you guys normally use? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tristan 338 Report post Posted September 23, 2013 Don't think we've really had an organised dyno day (at least not recently).There is a thread on in it Auckland meetings - Take a look in there, it has more info. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
