  1. I think you were right Tom, they are close to perfect but as I suspected just a bit lean but probably a scosh too hot. Ten bucks to try the 6's is a cheap experiment. Thank you all.
  2. Sooo...try a cooler plug? Perhaps the BP6ES?
  3. Now tell me the story you see in these after 6k miles.
  4. you're not planning on doing interstate hwy the whole way up, are you?
  5. Saturday May 14, 0800 at the Mini dealership on I-459 at Grants Mill Road. Let's have an inaugural coffee, car and cruise event. I know it is short notice but I would like to get it a try. I have invited the Heart of Dixie group and the British Motoring Club. Please RSVP and let me know. Details: Meet at Mini Dealership on Grants Mill between 8:00 and 8:15. Start cruise at 8:30 sharp. Try and find a place along the way to stop and take in the scenery Get back to the Mini dealership 11:00sh or so, and grab some food at the Mini Cafe and enjoy some time to get together. http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msa=0&msid=210384364810200426277.0004a2512b62061d9835f&hl=en&doflg=ptm&ie=UTF8&safe=on&z=11
  6. +1 just what I was thinkin. I've sold here as much as I've bought here as much as I've sold here...you get the idea.
  7. The tail light is the complete assembly. Good driver quality with one tiny crack in the top edge. SOLD The bullet mirror is a nice metal unit. SOLD Thanks guys.
  8. Also, are you sure it is the center bearing? I only ask this because I thought I had the same trouble. I had kind of a grindy noise coming from under the center of the vehicle , mainly on deceleration. After the type of investigation c.d. recommended above, I found it was the exhaust bracket attached to the tranny. There are rubber bushings there (or there were supposed to have been) to eliminate the rattle. I put some in and haven't had that noise since.

  10. ...what some vendors charge for shipping and handling? Profit should be built into the price, not the add ons. I know I will take flak for this but I am currently complaining about Ireland Engineering's practice of not giving you any shipping options and charging whatever they want after you have placed the order. I ordered a $28 dollar (small) part and was told that a separate email would follow with the final charge with shipping. Two days later there was no email but the charge showed up on my debit card. $42.36! WTH? I know, it's my fault for not getting the info up front but I thought IE had such a great rep they would treat us right. Wrong! My response: "14 dollars to ship! Really? You couldn't do any better then that? Come on, there are much better options; USPS would have been 8 bucks confirmed, insured, and tracked. You need to get a lot more efficient with your customers' money. And the fact I didn't have a choice when it came to how you were shipping is just the icing on a bad cake. Shame on you." OK, rant over. I feel better. Now you can throw your rotten fruit.
  11. What process are you using? What products?
  12. I just saw this. I was over there and free Sunday afternoon! Sorry.
  13. +1 on the kudos to Clay. You are spot on my man.
  14. Vintage BMW meet in Winston-Salem end of May. I'm sure someone will post the link to register. Go and check that off your list...at least partially;-)
  15. I don't open any Otis material at work. As fer the rest of yous, plllease do the NSFW thing. Or just put "OTIS" in the subject 8D
  16. I am sorry for the delay. I have the manuals scanned to pdf but can't attach them to the board. File size is 3,334 kb, any idea on how I can attach here or make available on the faq?
  17. Somehow (poor inventory control) I ended up with two left side mounts and no right side. I would like to trade: a brand new OEM left mount, part number 11-81-1-109-352, for brand new OEM right mount, part number 11-81-1-104-588. Check your stash and help a brother out.

  19. These are the two up front that clamp with the bar to the subframe. Any ideas where I can get them?
  20. Me thinks Earl is right on the money. You gotta do this. That is a seriously f'ed up "repair".
