How big is your freezer to lose things? All I got is a pack of zooper doopers and a bottle of vodka.

I have a fridge/freezer combo and a full sized stand up freezer.

Why BMW not selling. Having trouble selling it for more than you paid for it like 2 years ago?

Got over the stupid offers and dream boats laying down deposits and not coming back...

Got like 800 bux worth of deposits lol

Speaking of freezer someone is taking the fridge/freezer away from my house. Dat bachelor bar fridge lyfstyle

Getting rid of it or already got rid of?

My brother is looking for a temp fridge/freezer

how the f**k do i tell the difference between tein HA, super street etc?

want to buy some softer springs since the shocks are fine.

4kg rear 6kg front?

well from what i see the best way is to take a blurry picture with your phone then post it to facebook asking what they are.

then argue that they are wrong plus they worth over 5K cos Tien/JDM

Didnt want to start a whole thread so thought i'd throw it in here. The other day after going down a winding hill when i accelerated to go back up it i got alot of white smoke out the back then it cleared up and happened a couple more times on hills. Then today i took it out and went up and down some steep hills (but these were straight) and all good, went back to the same spot and white smoke again. It's running fine, no hesitation and no leaks on the drip tray or on the concrete at home and oil/water levels are fine. I wouldnt have a clue what is happening, ill just avoid winding downhill roads lol.

Scratch that, probably turbo seals.

seems simple...but checked oil level.

they over filled the missus car on a service (think they filled it twice or some shit), first up hill lost power and blew smoke!

ive been driving it a few times before on the same bit of road and had nothing and i haven't added more oil in it. after the down hill/uphill just light throttle and white smoke pours out then clears up in a few seconds. no smoke any other time when start up or idle or WOT.

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
