Spotted an R32, dark colour with dark rims at 6:50am (in the dark) this morn, turn onto Well Station Dr beside me and when I didn't do the drag thing, it made a heap of noise and shot like a rocket.

If I had've floored it like that in the rain, I would've spun the wheels big time, so I'm guessing it was a GTR.

Spotted a sad looking red silhouette parked outside Arnolds/the Thai place at the Hyperdome just before. Side was a bit bashed up. Had some kind of aftermarket rims. Was parked with headlights on (only 1 front one working) and no one in it??

Spotted a white 33 with a girl talking on the phone while driving. I shook my head at you!

Spotted a black 33 at the same time at the intersection near DFO

Then got around the corner and spotted another 33 turning at the roundabout near hungry jacks.

Couldn't tell what color it was because I had never seen that shade before but a dark blue/grey

Spotted a ACT prick tailgate me out of Canberra in his 4x4 then when I tapped the brakes to warn him he decided to chuck his big spot lights on and drive about 30cm from my back bar then drive side to side for a few km

Sigh

Spotted an R34 GTR silver with goldish rims, a bit after 3pm at the roundabout near Dunlop/Charnie.

Spotted another silver R34 with weirdass (Veilside???) looking kit on Southerncross Dr heading towards Belco around 3:40 ish.

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
