For those of you with poly rear shock mounts, like the (GC, Rogue Engineering, Ireland, etc..) how is the NVH? I'm deciding between the Turner Lifetime RSMs or some poly ones, and the only thing stopping me from getting and poly ones is possible squeakiness.

Oddly enough it passed smog with flying colors across the board back in the beginning of December. I want to go through it sooner than later so a pricey refresh doesn't become a nightmare. I'd do it now but I don't have another car I can drive. The Datsun needs wheels and tires so it can be driven. Once I've got those sorted out, I'll ride my bike and pay for race fuel every half tank while I take the M3 apart. Hopefully I won't find anything scary, and the block will be fine. (Rod bearings got replaced last year, the old ones that came out looked used but not through the outer layer. If the rod bearings are ok, the mains should be as well. I replaced the oil pump while I was in there. I couldn't see any odd wear in the lower parts of the cylinders so I don't know what I'll find when I open it up. ) I'm really hoping that it will be just new rings and a hone along with new bearings, chains, ect. If its worn, it will be replaced.

There is a 2002 my parents in NorCal so I asked my mom to go check it out for me.
Here is what she gathered: 1972 bmw 2002tii, dark blue, 321 seats, 321 wheels (has access to nicer wheels but im not sure what), has spare front fender which needs to be replaced, paint is faded and roof is rusted (not sure how bad). Said it was running, but not sure if it now. No pictures today, but I will get some tomorrow. Owner is asking $3,000.
I know this is worthless without pictures, but does that sound reasonable? I searched all over and can't find any for sale in similar condition (from what I've gathered).

Wow, I did not realize how bad it was. I was typing from tapatalk on my phone. There is no auto correct on it, and I rarely ever take the time to reread what I write when I am on my cell.
My madre is now saying she remembers seeing no "tii" on the rear of the car. Probably going to scrap this idea.Last edited by mbonanni; 04-14-2015, 09:35 PM.

This is my biggest issue *insert iphone crying/ laughing emoji"
I'm basically only on r3v using my phone, and that certainly isn't making me look any better. Lol

I'm in borderline crazy hoarding mode. I buy cars like this all the time and I won't even look at them for 6 months. Sometimes I even forget about them for a while.
