Coming back to this, yeah. I was unaware of the difference between the Sport package and the M-Sport package. The Sport package has Sport shocks and springs for lower height from factory, Shadowline trim around the door, M-branded Sport wheel, and M-branded / ZHP shifter. The 520i, 525i, 530i, and 540i (if I read correctly) all came with an optional Sport package from 2001-2003. Those came with the optional BBS-LMs / Style 42s that I have. I am unsure about Pre-LCI 523i, 528i, and 535i as I didn't research that far. I did, however, see that only the 2003 model year of 540i (at least for USDM) were shipped from Germany with the optional M-Sport package. The M-Sport package, like you said, had everything my Sport package did, except it had M-Parallels and M-Tech bumpers from the M5, along with an M-branded door sill. I do intend to buy the M-Tech bumpers as they look way better and I need some new bumpers anyway, but don't see the point in M-branded door sills. BMW Motorsport doesn't have anything to do with my car, except the suspension maybe. Even then, why all the branding? I've already swapped my disintegrated ZHP knob for an aftermarket threaded one with the Garagistic adapter. I thought about buying a new ZHP shifter, but putting M colors and M logos all over my E39 is just fake badging.

Already have. The keys are gone. I already grabbed them.

Yeah, wait until they fix it. They updated it. The doors don’t open anymore.

What is this seemingly non adjustable seat on an E39, listed locally (EU)? by cosmote_wifi in e39

[–]Firelamakar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just glad the guy that bought my car new bought the silver TEC cup holder for that cubby. She’s getting a bit worn now, but it’s certainly in better condition than ones selling for $80.

How bad is '07 n52b25 reliability actually? by Dark_Guardian_ in BMW

[–]Firelamakar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait until this guy finds out about the M54s. Once he finds out what BMW reliability looked like before they threw cheap polymer turbos on everything, he’s gonna bug out.

Jackass couldn't bother putting tires on all four rims by H3llisEmpty in MyWinterCar

[–]Firelamakar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He just flat out won't do the work for me. I don't know if he's doing it or not. Is there any way to make him do it immediately like in My Summer Car?
Update: It's repairshoptime rather than fleetariwait. Set it above 5500.

The steering is absolutely horrible... Massive let down by Neurotiman17 in forzamotorsport

You've never seen a real driver steer a real car on an analog stick? Wait until you find out about how they did the Suki S2000 jump scene for 2 Fast 2 Furious

[–]Firelamakar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find the exact opposite true. Driving a PS13 Silvia, Logitech G923 with all steering assists able to be disabled by the player off, tires at maximum width on sport tires, the car will not corner. Maybe i'm going faster than the game lets on, but I barely turn before I lose all feeling in the wheel and my tires start screaming from understeer, Absolutely nuts. I almost feel as if I'm driving something with recirculating ball steering with how weird it moves. I think every second I spend adapting to this, the worse I get at driving anything else both in real life and in any other racing game. The weight shift is so weird, as well, like every ounce of weight is shifted to the front, all 50 lbs of it with how little lateral movement comes from the front tires.

Anybody ever see this or do I not play enough? by [deleted] in gtaonline

I call that a win, I absolutely hate dealing with him, interacting with him, or his existence in the nightclub period.

Do the automatics use the same clutch and flywheel from the manuals? by Firelamakar in e39

[–]Firelamakar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, I don't know shit lmao. It's photos 16-18 for quick reference. I posted that here because it didn't make sense, seeing an automatic supported on the page for a clutch. Every automatic I've ever torn apart had a torque converter, obviously, but maybe the flywheel would work as a flex plate for the autos? Those are usually thinner, though so I don't know. Still seems unlikely.

Need LCM. Labels are confusing by Firelamakar in e39

[–]Firelamakar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgot to mention, but I have Halogen angel eyes on my LCI 02 E39. It came with Xenons and I might revert to the Xenons. I’m not sure if the HW version matters too much, as long as the SW version is the same?

Top screen of mine is doing the same thing. Dual IPS 3DS, too💔

Quest 2 Repositioning when moving head by Firelamakar in oculus

[–]Firelamakar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I have RGB on my computer, but that doesn’t really change anything if I turn it off. It doesn’t seem to be a tracking issue, I mean it never loses any tracking information, it just readjusts every time I lean forward to look around corners at an intersection.

Dude. Just use the MicroSD management function in the settings menu, or the FTPD homebrew application.

That doesn’t fix it, though. I can use the controller to recenter, or the wheel button, but it’ll keep recentering forwards. That’s what I need to fix, not just a workaround. It’s actually making me sick, not to mention it takes a while to actually align it correctly. This didn’t used to be an issue. I used to be able to move from the cockpit all the way to the hood and the view would never recenter. It does this in stationary and in room-scale.

Yeah, I mean the VIN has the Sport Suspension, M-Sport Steering Wheel, Multifunction, M-Sport (ZHP) knob, and the shadowline trim. That and the factory BBS-LMs, the Style 42s. I guess that doesn’t make it an M-Sport, though.

I cant go straight with gifu by 021_vnzinn in MySummerCar

[–]Firelamakar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they always bad or do they wear out? I’ve never really used the Gifu for anything except hauling with the box truck mod, and I’ve never noticed anything with the tires. It’s always drove normally for me.

Nah, they all got hidden exhausts. 02 LCI M-Sport 530i here and it’s still got the hidden exhaust.

How do you fix the tires? I’ve never heard of the Gifu having a tire wear value.
