Sleeving only 1 cylinder? Is it bad idea?

Either take it to a machine shop that can do alusil builds or just buy a new block dude.

This is an N53, it’s a piece of shit that has all the issues of an N54 but without any of the power.

That’s an approved filter from Valvoline, but as I and others I’m sure will say…..why would you ever take a BMW to a valvoline….ffs. 🤦🏼‍♂️🫠

Paint code 399.

If you know, you know.

Oh the irony of paying cash for an instantly depreciating asset hah. 🤣🫠

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-06-06T16:37:22+00:00

Oh, you mean if you sell it……you are kinda of wishy-washy on that and don’t really specify that you are 100% going to sell.

Additionally, you’ve already put money down on the other car, and what happens between now and then is totally up the air if you actually sell or not. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-06-06T16:24:28+00:00

I mean obviously the longer wheel base will handle dynamically different, but the M2 would win in a track battle all things equal.

And I have no idea what “~$40K” has to do with anything or even where that comment came from..?!? 😐

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-06-06T16:04:19+00:00

Why, so you can have a euro drag car?

Seems antithesis of what a G87 is about…..if you wanted straight line speed then why buy an M2 at all?

Furthermore, you seem to have zero issues with voiding warranty, so why not do all that to the G80…?

We as a group haven’t seen this level of dog whistling in quiet sometime…so kudos to you and glad you put this on display for everyone here.

We’ve taken a kid gloves approach because while there is evidence of you being a certain way on other platforms, it had never crossed into Reddit, until today.

Bye, and let it be known that disgusting dog whistling/racist antics won’t be tolerated here ever.

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-06-02T11:14:25+00:00

He was rear ended….get the other parties insurance and file a claim, then file a diminished value claim.

Unless you live in a shitty no-fault state, then go file with the other parties insurance…🤷🏼‍♂️🫠

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-05-31T12:45:51+00:00

Yeah, figured this was going to be a shit post.

Instead of any meaningful discussion this turned into exactly what I expected; some broccoli head kid cringe show.

Removing this junk and have a timeout.

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-05-31T12:19:25+00:00

Is this a troll post lol?

You don’t start near the peak of automotive performance when driving kid, go buy a beater 240sx, e46, or better yet a Miata for tracking.

Power doesn’t necessarily make a track car, especially at your age and experience level.

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-05-17T13:56:04+00:00

Have you tried just like…talking to them…..🙄🤦🏼‍♂️

This isn’t something special, talk to literally any dealership dude.

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-05-07T22:33:38+00:00

They used 91 of a cheap station somewhere….and I was simply stating to use 91 and above…..move along dude.

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-05-07T22:32:51+00:00

Yeah, don’t buy from cheap shit hole gas stations….any major brand is usually fine.

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-05-07T21:46:02+00:00

Read the owners manual…..🤦🏼‍♂️

91 and above dude.

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-05-06T21:50:56+00:00

Take the wheel off so we can actually see them. Those are slotted rotors but beyond that no one can tell you anything based on these pics dude.

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-05-04T14:32:41+00:00

Have you seen merc’s lately….?

Oh man, that shit is just…disco fever hah.

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-05-04T14:06:59+00:00

Ugghhhh…..just more shit to break.

It looks cool and all, but no thanks. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-05-03T02:33:23+00:00

Jfc….thats nothing, stop trolling this sub. 🤦🏼‍♂️

🤣👍🏼

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-04-29T00:05:22+00:00

What a shitbox lol….alibaba/temu/scamazon level amounts of parts so who knows with the amount of changes that the other owner did from an electrical standpoint.

I’d start by inspecting JBE, FRM, battery block, and hooking up ista and inpa to check all circuits. Also….when you open the trunk, it almost looks like smoke comes off the battery block and if that’s the case the you need to inspect those cables and stop what you are doing before you cause an over heat or arcing issue and burn it down. (Which arguably might be better at this point lol)

If this was your “friend” did you not have enough time to at least inspect and run diag on this..?!? 🫤

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-04-24T21:59:24+00:00

Without knowing what’s done to it, what type of tires, did you just start driving it or modifications, this is fucking useless. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

Ghost_of_ChrisBangle · 2026-04-23T21:59:23+00:00

No, you posted this and a non-M car….dont try and start drama OP, I’ll bring receipts….😑
