Definitely interested in the possibility of a quality reproduction exhaust manifold,@larsalpina! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The Michelin Classic website specifies a min-max of 5-6 inch width wheel for their 185/70 VR 13 tires. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Steve, To your point...stock ALLOY wheels...5x13 H2 ET26. Greg

They fit fine. I run 185/70-13’s on stock rims and stock fenders.

Your advance curves don’t look anything like what I see in the Blue Book. The tii maxes out at 25-degrees BTDC... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyone notice how filthy the engine compartment looks now on that BMW Classic tii?! Apparently they don’t have any fresh valve cover gaskets in stock...😂😩🇩🇪

Last I looked, yes indeed.

As a colleague of mine used to say...”Things that are different are not the same.” Sigh I’m not replacing mine at this time, just trying to stock potentially unobtainable spares for the future. Greg

Oh my. $350-ish wasted...Maybe. It’s got an old manufacturing date, so I’m hoping for the best. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I opened the box. It's labeled by Behr, so I assumed it's a good spare, but my car is down in San Diego taking an extended holiday in Carl Nelson's shop. The turbocharger went out for overhaul using one of Carl's precious OEM overhaul kits but the housing turned out to be cracked...

I agree on the idea of carefully sharing from our private stock of original spare parts! I have a couple of the OE air filters. I'm not a K&N fan, as they allow too much grit through to the engine.

I just bought a Turbo oil cooler from BMW, knowing that it will never get produced when stocks are used up. Which made me wonder...what other parts should I be thinking about?! What new, not yet NLA BMW parts are you all keeping on your shelf? This seems like a good place to share! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
