Compomotive wheels for an S2 *SOLD*

I've got a set of compomotive wheels for an S2. I bought them back in 2012 but they sat in the boxes ever since...never even had tyres fitted to them. One of them has a few light scratches from storage. 2x 16x7 ET32 2x 17x8 ET32 http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a306/Kev_Ush/A08F36B5-2D11-4529-9E1A-...

Re: Death of the manual gearbox?

What driving test would you have to sit if these semi automatic gearboxes completely replaced manual gearboxes. If the car doesn't have a clutch and has a automatic mode I suppose it will be an automatic licence that you'll need??

Re: S2 wheels on an S1?

I'm fitting s2 hubs to my s1 just so I can have the stronger wheel bearing. From what I've been able to gather is that rear arms are the same length as the S2's. The front S1 arms are a few mm shorter but I'll give it a go with the S1 arms to start with and if I run into any problems I'll switch to ...

Re: Shell V-Power Nitro+ - Cold Starts

It would seem that a few people on the M3 forum I'm on are having the same sort of problems with this Shell Nitro stuff. Some have reported ruff idling and taking longer to fire up since using it.

I was always a fan of V-Power but I might give this nitro+ a miss for now.

Re: Honda Elise exhaust

Cheers for the info. I need to get cracking with my conversion again and i'll need a manifold at some point. I want an over the top one so maybe I should contact Colin and see who he is planning on getting to make his. Might be able to get 2 made at the same time and get a bit of a discount.

Re: Idiots guide to offsets required

No the Honda project is still on going, got the supercharger all fitted up now. Just a bit delayed due to work commitments and me spending all my spare time and cash on my M3.

Re: Idiots guide to offsets required

There are a couple of decent apps on iTunes for trying to figure out offsets. I found one that let's you compare 2 different rims and it gives you an overlay of 2 images so you can compare the differences. I used it before I ordered my compomotives...haven't actually tried the wheels on the car yet ...

Regardless of who owns the car, the exhaust was a disaster and trying to offer Andy some constructive advice.

What ever happened to that manifold? Could it have been beefed up?

Re: BMW Electric Seat Broken - Flexible Shaft

If that doesn't hold up then you can try the likes of the people that make the custom gear cables for the Honda conversions. I'm sure they could knock something up at a fraction of the price. I can't remember the name of the company that makes the cables for the stark Honda kit but I'm sure someone ...
