Re: 335i I loved them until I realized they don't come with a LSD need an M for that. 1M is a great car, won't say a great buy just yet until you can pick them up 2nd hand cheaper.

I'm tryin to hold off from a new car until jan next year, that would mean I can get a 11' plated with a decent ammount off? Looking at fpv or hsv at this stage if it makes any difference. But yeh a bit lost on the best way to go about buying a new car.

Edit: yes I'm wanting a v8 for a change of pace :) hopefully not too far off imports haha

Purchase outright, maybe an ex demo if it's like 7k+ cheaper than what I could get new at the best price. I guess what I'm asking is it worth me waiting till jan ? Or will it be stuff all saving compares to say early dec? Then at least I got a car for Xmas time

So Ex demo car 7K saving + 1 month earlier v New car

How much do they go for 2nd hand? Aren't ex-demo's generally thrashed? Correct me if Im wrong.

Also make sure the 'new car' price is the driveaway price, and does not have other hidden charges.

Do you have alot of time off work during the x-mas period and thats why you want it before then?

Edited by blah_blah

just what i saw, cant remember which ep of top gear, but they all chose the 370z over the m1

said it was a better car overall and the price was the last straw in the decision

yeah not to sure on exact figures

but i know 370z ain't no slug

I have no idea what video you are talking about??? The 1M bet the M3 around the topgear test track.

I think you are talking about 135i vs 370z...

edit: read through thread. S'all good.

come again?

you put a brake line clamp on the soft line near the caliper to stop air get in/oil getting out, less of the system will need rebleeding when you reattach the calipers.

<cool story bro>

Pulled up at lights, heard someone talking, look to my left. See a 60yr old guy in a new toyota camry looking at me. I said "sorry?" as I missed what he said. (im thinking he said some hoon comment about the car being too loud or something). He replies "nice car" and keeps mirin my car...

It seemed so out of character for him, caught me off guard.

Majority of times cars next to me always stop short of my window and other import drivers just look dead straight :(

Thumbs up to old guy :thumbsup:

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
