NOR-CAL General Chat.

[Vivek]

if i can finish my thesis paper by friday night. are you?

Yeah I'll be there. You're in San Diego right?

[Pantless Spency]

I want that m5 but not at that price point :/

[kronus]

not really at that price. 5ers have crap value compared to 6ers and m3s. if it was ~4-5k it would be worth buying. at almost 10k nope.

lol no

[blazinxpk]

Down to?

I'm hitting Laguna this weekend, super stoked.

see ya there!!

Norcal! I need some advice on where to get some calipers (and possibly wheels) powder coated. I just called the place in fairfield on my break and they wanted $100 a caliper! That can not be the going rate.

[mbonanni]

So clean, I want.

lol no

that's about 1/2 the price of an m3.
either way, i never see them for sale on CL for more than ~15k in mint condition (private party). considering that one needs paint, and most likely a dash and engine refresh, it would be wiser to buy a 240z and hold on to that at 10k and sell it in a few years.

Yes. La Jolla to be exact. However after four years of residency, I shall be saying good bye to San Diego, and California all together, come next month.

if you go e36 front you end up with too much poke to fit any cool wheels.

ahem. e36 5-lug, e38 weaves, 225/45-16 BFG kdw, for half a decade now.

you just have to quit being a waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles and get out the fender roller.

I'm driving down later to Bimmerfest today.

Consult RMS Fender Rolling. They've been powder coating for quite some time now and the pricing is reasonable. They're over in Fremont if you're willing to make the trek. My friend got a few sets of Brembos done there and they turned out quite nice.

+1 for RMS. quality work done over there. A bunch of my old subie buddies get their wheels done there and they look outstanding!

[Pantless Spency]

Headed to SoCal for bimmer fest

[mbonanni]

hey guys, do I have to remove the driveshaft to tow my car on a dolly? Can I just put it in neutral?
