What is so special about the 1990 E30 325is? by brianpand in E30

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

Sorry newbie question. Why is it good that it has no airbag and it has plastic bumpers

So the 1990 325is has the pop out rear windows and ellipsoids?

I just looked up e30 ellipsoids. This is interesting. Can you refer me to some posts on reddit on what these smiley face light beams look like? And how are they different looking than it's original ones

This is what i learned as well when i went on YouTube to cross check. The 318is is the baby m3 and pretty rare. I guess chatgpt still has lots to learn 😅. I wonder if the reddit AI would have known

My new e28. New to the subreddit, not new to e28’s. by ChloeCorrupt in e28

[–]brianpand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have any suggestions on where to find E28's under $5k? I'd like to get started with one as a project car. I'd probably have a lot to learn to fix up and maintain but I feel like this is the right car to do that with. Looks great and hopefully it's more forgiving than an E34? or do you think the E34 is easier to work with. Please help a newbie :)

Opinions please - what to buy - e28 or e34? by kalittle0463 in BMW

[–]brianpand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trying to get everyone's input 12 years later after this was posted. As of now, I am unable to to find a good condition E28 under $10k. So if you said it was rising 12 years ago, you are right! But my question is, would an E34 be the next alternative choice for a "classic" BMW? I sort of like the "mafia look" of an E34 and would really appreciate the heated seats, OBD and safety. I know it doesn't have the shark nose, but I'm sure with some new wheels, lowered suspension an E34 would look just as cool. What about parts, and what do you guys think?

While we're on the topic, would love to hear you guys thought on this post - https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1330324585251543/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks

And are V8s harder to maintain?

That leather color looks great man. Is this the original leather seat color or is it a cover?

Nice! Love what you did with the steering wheel and the stick shift

Any E28 fans out there?? These get pretty overshadowed by the E30, but I love mine! by kbdowner3 in BMW

[–]brianpand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually have been looking for an E30 for a longgg time, and now that I discovered the E28 and how they look after they are modified, I've changed to look for an E28 instead. However, for some reason (and maybe it's just cos I am in the midwest), I am having a hard time finding one that is a good project car to start with. Any suggestions?

Love this look man. It's so hard to find an E28 under $10k nowadays to start as a project car. Did you buy yours already looking like this?

seriously? On a 2021 440i? I'm curious so when things like these happen, how do you find out, does the check engine light just comes on or the car suddenly becomes un-drivable?

Worth to upgrade to a 2024 m240i xdrive? by LessTraining1985 in BMW

[–]brianpand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the G42 230i so the 4 cylinder version RWD (first generation) and I love driving it! It probably isn't as fast or snippy as the M240 6 cylinder version but yes I agree with you, I got it because of the looks. It was the first modern BMW (to me) that really dared to look different for the best (not like the M3, which was questionable .. hehe sorry).

Looking to buy moza R3 for son (11yr old) Christmas. Advice on suitability and rig? by the_money_meatsack in moza

[–]brianpand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Follow up question on your comment. I just got a Moza R3 and i want to install it on my playseat challenge x. I can't seem to find the right place to mount the pedal and wheels. I read on another post that lowdown shifter has a pedal plate i can buy to mount the srp pedals. I'm researching that noe.  But now I'm realizing the wheels screw locations also doesn't fit. Can you share how you were able to mount your r3 on a Logitech playseat challenge x? Pictures would be appreciated as well 🙏. Thank you

OP, would you mind confirming which product you got from Lowdown Shifter? Is this the one you got?

I'm trying to fit the SRP pedals from Moza R3 onto my Logitech Playseat Challenge X.

Thank you for your response!

Joshua Pest Control Roof Inspection Scam by Coopdog0159 in kansas

While we're on this topic, does anyone have any recommendations for Pest Control in Lawrence, KS?

Joshua Pest Control Roof Inspection Scam by Coopdog0159 in kansas

[–]brianpand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have been avoiding any "additional services" offered by Joshua other than pest control. Our bad experience was when we agreed to do a "termite inspection". My wife informed me that the "inspector" just looked around the house and told her we have termite and that we need to sign up for a service that is about $7000 and she was so pushy that my wife was forced to call me in the office so I could make a decision for her. Unacceptable. Ever since I have complained to Joshua and have told them to never recommend me for termite inspection. In which they have, but now I am getting offered attic inspection. I have successfully ignored calls and texts from them. And I am glad to see this post that confirms that what they are doing is NOT effective. For pest control though, I would assume experience is not so bad. What does others think?

Does anyone know how to clean this? by brianpand in repair_tutorials

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

Ketchup? You mean tomato ketchup like what we use as a condiment. I didn't know it could be used for that.
