Oh yes, since this suggestion also involves all members/rides/models & is for the benefit of the Forum - please make a suggestion on the SITE OPINIONS - SUGGESTIONS etc etc and you will get the Administrator's eye better than here.

I leave to either one of you ( 2cents, Kinaka ) to make this post, okie?

It did occur to me too, to post these matters on SITE OPINIONS - SUGGESTIONS but then if I did that I wouldn't hv actual examples of what I was talking about with me to put my points across effectively. :unsure:
I suppose dis is wher TTs serves its purpose well.

Sorry to jump in your discussion, why I see many of you e30s paying so high price on oil filters I paid on the original oil filter at rm 20 past years and recently up to rm 23 I tak tau lah kalau they gave me special but I can'nt tell you right here where I buy unless I see you at TT personaly. well my advice to BM owners try your best to get all important parts of your car original parts to avoid problems as with my own exprience spending alot, trying to make good cost me say 800 where if change new 1400 with no problem but trying to save 600 I ended up the problem unsolve and make you sick and wasted your time. do you agree with me? besides that more related problem appears then what a regret to repair from bad to worse tak sakit kepala ke.

Here am I again its near to 5am enjoy reading forum. From day one I start having my own car back to 1974 I never allow others to buy my parts I make a point to get it my self even now I am in Seremban just to buy an oil filter I will drive to KL and get it my self its crazy to others if they know but with the problem I had asking my workshop to change my timing belt and I don't know really they change an original one as my request or not I don't know I got it burst at about 40000km luckly at slow speed that too spoil all my valves and with that I make a point I will wait and see what I want to repair no way I will leave my car at workshop for repairs and once I was overseas and ask my son to service my car they charge my oil filter rm38 I ask why they say its up now, shit I call my normal supplier they say no there you are how these people tarok their regular client and I bising but to late lah. Talking about timing belt what is the life of it for E30s? I was advice by my supplier to change at 40000km and I make sure at that KM I change to save the engine and I have been doing that since I had that bad snap and remember when buying make sure its 100% fresh new not they have kept to long as rubbers become hard after some time.
thats all for now. and more stories to come with my BM life and no regrets when you are in love for it

Not telling forum-ers wher u get ur oil filters at low prices iz also a good strategy 2 get mor forum-ers 2 cum out of the woodwork, meet up & socialize at a TT but incidentally, wch TT u attend?

 

[rezzy3181]

Cooling coil RM180
Aircond air hose - from blower to the outlet RM 15
To vacum the system and refill gas RM25
