Nothing at all wrong with the Stag mate.

Totally agree with that. A tastefully modified M35 like the blue one Ben sold earlier this year is on my shopping list - again when the boss allows it hahaha

go make a beamer appreciation thread! :P:yucky:

I had to take a 2nd look at the thread title myself and thought, "someone's going to rant about bimmers sooner or later & he's probably going to be an aggro person" - & I was right...

and because the thread is about ppl having pies at Robertson - that aggro person will be wrong! :nyaanyaa:

BTW have you dared tell anyone yet that you had an enjoyable ride in a 530i two days ago? :P

Bimmers are crap, buy an Audi :P

Everyone knows Audi drivers are the new BMW drivers. Their typical habitat is 5cm away from your rear bumper, with their christmas light look at me LEDs on. Bimmers are back to being enthusiast cars.

Exactly mate. :)

I remember the 'cockometer' they had on Top Gear but the E92 M3 'won' that one over the Audi and Merc!

I don't mind Audis actually, mostly the early 2000s ones like the RS4 (both biturbo V6 and 4.2 V8) and S8, but also the newer R8. Most of the current ones don't do much for me.

They can get within 5cm of your rear bar?

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
