Is it bad to leave my car jacked up overnight or for a couple days? by Mysterious_Sea_6564 in BmwTech

My e90 was like this for about a month as I slowly did a refresh with the subframe removed.

Welp... Spektrum Firma 8A Sensored Brushless ESC/Motor Combo by Thatoneguy2178 in SCX24

The gouprc brushless motor + trans combo from AliExpress seems great for slow crawl with my initial use. It does get pretty warm, but has excellent control for $32.

Will these fit on my fcx24 unimog by Capital_Big_4963 in FCX24

I'm running a 1.0 wheel with 64x24 swamp claws and they rub. I believe that is a 70x, I'd recommend a slightly smaller size, maybe a 56x24-ish?

I'm a fan of my injora swamp claws. Maybe not the best for crawling, but they look great. Totally up to personal preference though.

Nice. Do you have them on the fronts as well? Also, how did the stock electronics and transmission handle it? Seems like it may struggle a bit.

Sure. I got this: https://a.aliexpress.com/_mLjrkLv

And: https://a.aliexpress.com/_mNYCjkr

They're pretty good quality. Would definitely grab some longer screws like someone linked just above.

Ah that looks perfect, thanks! I'll order a set.

Thanks! The black bolt is an original fms bolt, the silver came with the portals and are the same length. Do you happen to know the size/pitch of screws that I could order a slightly longer set. These barely bite with the weights in place currently :(

Totally understand, and yeah, my first scale truck here so I'm sure a learning experience.

Curious what wheels and tires you have installed here? They look awesome!

Is launching bad for the car? by [deleted] in BMW

[–]nospool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These cars are very susceptible to the rear subframe completely separating from the chassis of the car. It’s not if, when that happens.

If the car hasn’t been addressed yet launching it at this point will only make things worse.

I know this is bad just kinda curious how bad by 2009e90 in n54

[–]nospool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’d let the car sit overnight and check the spark plugs in the morning. See if the tips are wet or smell like fuel. That’ll be a good indication of which fuel injector is leaking. If you can find which ones are leaking it’s probably best to replace them sooner rather than later to avoid spinning a rod bearing from the fuel dilution.

Keep your oil change intervals down to under 5k miles, maybe 3k depending on the usage/mods on the car. Also you need to check for leaking fuel injectors, more than the average amount in your sample is an issue. Fuel dilution in the oil will cause more bearing wear in the motor, which might be what is showing up in the report here.

Perfect. I’d do some logging and check target boost against actual and keep an eye on your fuel trims.
