    Driv3r commented on benzintinte's blog entry in The Roundie - '73 2002

    Curious to know how you found out about RHD products? Was it through FAQ?

    I always pay F&F to people I know here trying to save them some cash. I bought parts from people I don’t know and even though they’d asked for F&F payment, I’ve always added PayPal fees and paid as PayPal purchase. I’ve also sold products here by including PayPal fees to the price but many still pay me as F&F without me asking. Paying as F&F is not a problem if you know who you’re paying. If you used your credit card via PayPal payment gateway you can still dispute the charge by calling your card company. It will take longer but in most cases you’ll get a refund depending on your card supplier (Visa, Master or etc).

    No doubt but the topic of this debate and my comment here are in relation to cost. For example, “why should I pay a high price for Hurschmann red tip antenna when any other none original and cheaper antenna can do the same job”? So, you’d be correct if the topic of this debate was, “I want to make my car go faster and money is no object so I’m thinking of upgrading my cheaper aftermarket antenna to a NOS Hurschmann red tip antenna”. [emoji16] I should’ve used other examples like the $3k asking price for a NOS set of tii struts or $10k for a rebuilt 235/5 since these were actually correct parts for our cars.

    Funny how some people throw ridiculous amount of money on s14 swaps which doesn’t even pay for itself but have difficulty understanding the market price for a genuine period correct NLA part that was sold with the car.

    I hope this doesn’t represent your taste for the rest of your car though. [emoji16]

    I once bought an overpriced e30 for its 3 pcs Ronal turbos, true story. I’ve been searching for 15”x7 kleeblatts for years. Only seen them once in UK on a mk1. Here is a teaser for you [emoji3]

    Almost one week left until sale ends. Don’t miss out. You can also order matching shift knob to suit your steering wheel.

    Very responsive engine on a stand. I wonder if it can rev the same in gear with the drag of the whole car though.

    Yes I did say early 02s. After checking the catalog, it seems that the black tip is Bosch and red tip Hirschmann was installed on cars came with sunroof during the period you mentioned.
  11. Driv3r
    Hirschmann red tip antenna is an authentic 2002 part and it’s a rare item. Not just rare for 02s it’s also rare for VW and Porsche. If you have an early car then buy the red tip if you find one in fair price. It’s probably not suitable for cars with swapped engines since originality and correct period is not the aim.

    These Shift knobs are hand turned from Mahogany and Redwood Burl. Badges are solid brass and enamel. I have only two "Racing Heritage" and limited number of "2002tii 71-75" badges available in either Mahogany or Redwood burl (badges are interchangeable). Thread size is M15 x 1.5. Also have "Klassiker Rennen" badge ("Classic Racing") with Bavarian coat of arms as per the letter B in Bavarian Motor Werks. Shipping is included in the price to USA and is via expedited mail (7 working days). Current sale price is $70.55 USD (17% OFF usual price until 15th Jan). Have a merry Christmas and wonderful new year. [emoji318]

    Cables are longer which is fine but apparently they’re also taller and need modification. (As it was mentioned). I don’t know the Volvo part number though.
  14. Driv3r
    We had a member who made metal tip Volvo cables compatible to 02. Does anyone remember who? Thanks

    Yes, and like dinosaurs, all honest and reliable mechanics are now extinct since the mid 80's. I do not trust any mechanics in Sydney, period. On the other hand, there are number of experienced engine builders, brake and clutch shops, suspension, steering and body shops that I know of in Sydney but I always open the part and take it there. My 02 stays in my garage thank you very much! lol

    I'm now looking for item 2, 17,18 & 21. Were you able to source these? Does anyone know if there're any reproductions?
  17. Driv3r
    Find me one. I’ll give you $1000, you keep $500.

    Rama RHD in Australia makes all sort of custom ITB kits for BMW’s. His work is flawless. He’s also done an ITB kit for fuel injected M10. Here is one of his kits for M20

    Update 15/11/2018 *********************** I have a few special burl shift knobs available before Christmas at 17% discount only on limited stock: $85 - 17% = $70.55 USD shipped to US * Only one Tasmanian Oak burl with beautiful grains and BMW Racing Heritage badge with epoxy resin top: SOLD! Mahogany shift knob with Racing Heritage epoxy top SOLD! 1 x Mahogany burl (beautiful burl grains) with Racing Heritage badge still available. This mahogany burl has beautiful grains with 2002tii commemorative badge. (Picture taken at night so I used a filter so you can see the badge) SOLD! I had a CSL customer from Germany who ordered a custom mahogany shift knob with "Klassiker Rennen" badge for a short shifter setup. Its narrower (and tall) than normal shift knobs that I make but it follows a short shifter style. Customer decided to go with Tasmanian Oak burl so the mahogany burl is for special sale price of $55 USD shipped. PM me for more details and photos. PM or email info@73inka.com * Price excludes payment fees if required.

    Hami is resourceful and top bloke to deal with. I’ve always referred everyone to him when relevant. I hope I don’t have to rebuild my heater box ever again but if I do, Hami is the number one to go guy in my list.

    I’m designing my toolbox and need old brass emblems in any condition.
