Itās just not as black and white as youāre describing. Iāve got MHD+ and when I turned off cold start but did not check the āstart up roarā button, the car does the start up roar most of the time. However, the very first time i cold started the car after flashing, it did zero roar and started...
Did a brake fluid flush AGAIN. Ate Typ 200 the first time made the master cylinder squeak and the brakes felt very soft. Flushed again with BMW DOT 4 and the squeak is gone and brakes are factory-firm again. WTF? Some posts state that BMW brake systems need a very thin fluid and Ate may not...
Took me two evenings but I pulled the wheels, washed, deconāed, clay bared, polished, alcohol wipe down, and Gyeon ONE ceramic coat. Also did the calipers. Damn are these things glossy now! Rest of the car is next š
BC Forged RZ05 - and of course the one rock chip on the whole set and the...
If we canāt trust Hotcars for the utmost in journalistic integrity - who can we trust???
Jk WTF is hot cars? AI created articles to generate clicks/ad revenue? Seems itās workingā¦
Good thinking! And I was just in a rare mood and was being a jerk for my own amusement. Install looks great š and Iām also a Telecaster guy! There, I feel better š¤£
Wheel prep day: removed wheels, washed, iron decon, clay bar, and then polished. Guy I bought these BC Forged wheels from only used them 500 miles on his Z4, but there were so many scratches and swirls. Nylon brush to clean them? Automatic car wash? Maybe he used gravel to clean them? To...
Youāve entered an argument with someone that entered this conversation with no real arguement. Any point heās trying to make is unclear and randomly shifts from post to post and even within a single post. Remember; he originally posted to your thread about avoiding a dealer to say you should...
Phil, what is the point youāre trying to make? That the OP and everyone on here are saying that we shouldnāt have free markets?
The discussion is that the OP wants to find another dealer that doesnāt play games. Thatās literally participating in the free market.
I live very close to this dealer, and theyāre along my typical evening cruise route in the Supra. Never been there, for clarity, so canāt add to the discussion other than saying I also donāt do business with dealers that play these types of games with their customers.
You can tune it, it just costs more to have it unlocked and you have to send the ECU overseas to do so. Not a big deal, according the many folks on here that have done it. I think getting rid of the car if it was a good deal, you like the spec, and it is low miles would be short-sighted just...
Euro Eibachs for me and zero issues. It looks amazing - huge transformation of the looks of the car from that one small mod alone. Yes, itās stiffer and I go slowly over driveways, etc but this is my fun car so itās ok. My daily driver is only barely lowered, and I wouldnāt want to have to be...
I changed my front pads without removing the calipers (normal method for fixed calipers, I suppose?) and I didnāt have to jiggle the original Brembo pads - I had to pry them out and it wasnāt easy. Lots of rubber cement-like glue on the back of the pads. Other than that, it was pretty simple...
Fantastic!!! Weāve all been there, and I know the feeling of having a breakthrough like that. Get it buttoned up, post some pics, and go for a drive or two this weekend!
Strange, but if they took enough off to cover the cost of having to replace them and the rest of the car is good with a certified warranty - then I wouldnāt hesitate, personally.
Iām with you on all points here. In person, M2 looks good to me, interior is great. I drove one and really loved it but just couldnāt justify the price over the Supra.
