Now, anxiously waiting for it.



However I'm not 100% sure if it'd fit, as it goes from a toyora car, never heard of it.

I had one in my e12 it'll defo fit.

Iirc you need to be careful buying them online though because the strut is the opposite way around on LHD cars so the shock absorber doesn't catch on the brake fluid reservoir.

I know very well about LHD vs RHD differences in them, colleague of mine was the victim of his own lack of knowledge in that matter. Anyway, seller is located in Wales and photo clearly shows it's an RHD strut bar.

My only doubts were about toyora vs toyota.

K&N sell it for 20.39 in their webshop. Bought off ebay for a tenner plus free shipping. 2 days and DHL gave it to me.

Wash and wax last week...which revealed lots of little white dots on the bumper where the bloody midges from my evening trips down the motorways had been washed off. Little fúckers have eaten though the paint

Don't let them gather too long all!

Pedro K

New car on Friday.

HT leads and plug caps for the motorbike.

James Bond Junior

Radiator, water pump, hoses, coolant and new brake lines plus 8 hours of labour due to the whole rear end having to be dropped to get at the lines. Good to go for the summer.

A pair of new headlights and a stupid expensive VANOS unit for bank 1 :pac::cool:

Those lights will make a world of difference. What kind of bucks are a set?

Yeah they should do! While my own aren't bad looks wise the adjusters are shot, like all old E39 Lights so I said I'd finally invest. They were a bargain to be honest, €341 including VAT for the pair, including all the bulbs and when you consider an angel eye bulb is €40 each it's very good! Everywhere else I priced were usually around €350-450 per headlight!

Voodoomelon

That's an amazing price alright, a no brainer.

Mr. postman brought this one last friday.



Standard postage service, 7 days from Japan! :eek:

Just one item inside:



"Made in UK" clearly seen on label.

Now, for the very same heatshield Toyota Europe wants 175 euro. I paid 59 for this one, including delivery!

Rip-off TME! :mad:

I got a circular polarizer (CPL) filter for my dashcam today. It wasn't cheap coming out at €20~ but it reduces the dashboard glare on the windscreen.



Here is the before/after:

Its the mid torque i went for

Thats the site it came from have a friend who owns a lot of Milwaukee gear already so had a go with his mid and high torque impact wrenches,the high torque is a monster can undo anything but its very heavy and not as compact as the mid torque so thats why i went with the mid torque.

joujoujou

Great machine! Well wear!

James Bond Junior

Lads I can supply any of that Milwaukee gear if ye want anything.

One of these should be winging it's way across the waters to me now, as well as the relevant 5 miles of wiring to get it to play nice with my bose system and steering wheel controls
