Guys, long time no speak! been driving an E90 330D since kids etc, anyway...

Got a set of 224M wheels off my brother in laws Z4Mcoupe, they need a refurb and the tyres are pretty fcuked. What are we looking at as a fair price?

or you could by a nice shiny Gruppe M replica in carbon fibre, or there are a few others about now, Simota do one, or there are a few who have created hybrid ones from E36 M3's.

R80TER

What's the point in that?? They have the same engine, same gearbox and virtually the same weight. Any performance difference will be down to individual driver talents (or lack of mechanical sympathy). ........and a little matter of the difference in aerodynamics of the ragtop and hard top variants....

don't the US use different radio frequencies?

I have one. fitted in the fag lighter hole. The hole needed to be bored out slightly, you need a relay as well.

there is an idiots guide somewhere, someone helpful will post up the url.

E34 colin. get on www.e36coupe.com and get on general BMW discussion, lots and lots of experience of the 2 cars in question there, If you do go E36, get a pre evo 3.0.

motorway trips i can get 30/35mpg easy.

PS, messer, Mine is for sale!! gotta sell quick though!

R80TER

Thanks Kipper, You've just saved me some heartache! i had one, it was well made, and IMHO it did allow the engine to breath better. BUT! it came with a K&N "look" filter, which imo was not as good as AL's. but the heatshield also needed trimming, once i did this it was very good, for ...

the little one is RRP£49+VAT

the bigger laptop boot safes are from £99-£120 RRP +VAT.

please note Mods, I am not trying to punt for business, i am merely seeing what people think.

R80TER

David, exactly why i will only buy a nokia! I had a sony ericcson for about a week, it took me 3 days to work out how to send a text!!

So if you like things easy and don't want to read instructions, Buy a TomTom.

R80TER

Further to the post in stock exchange RE sat nav units, as people have said even leaving the sucker mount on the window is an advert for goodies inside. Just a bit of market research, company i work for have started distributing in car safes. they have a small one specific for sat nav etc http://www...

R80TER

I have used Navman and TomTom, and i found the tomtom much easier to use, its like using a Nokia mobile, all the menu's do as you think they will. The navman may be a better satnav, but for user ease i would go with a tomtom.

HTH

I use admiral.

27 yrs old with my 22yr old girlfriend. fully comp with 3 years NCB and she had a crash last year (4k damage) and mine is just under £800 per year fully comp.

Thumbs up from me, but they dont like mods!!! So in summary, standard car yes, modded car. no. i suggest adrian flux for that.

I had the cosmo system on my M roadster, IMHO it did free up the throttle a little, but made no real change to the induction noise. You need to modify the heatshield too as its an E36 one they send you. I think If they supplied it with a K&N filter it may be a bit throatier. (AL has basically th...

I seem to remember a previous thread where a CDR had caused the changer to jam and 'they' were asking how to remove the unit in order to repair.

So beware.

this is often due to cheap CD's.

Another update! The number of Phoenix Yellow cars needs to be reduced to 9 from 11. This was due to cars being counted twice as they had personal plates.

Dave No. behave.

i would plan a schedule.

1: wash, clay, clean paint, polish, wax.
2: wash, wax
3: wash polish wax
4: back to cycle 1.

i wouldn't clay it or paint clean it every time, i would say once every 2 months. just get a decent base of polish on, then wax weekly. will be good for a month or 2 easy.
