Any updates?

Thanks guys. These past few weeks have been trying, but it's nice to have a little help from some friends. :thumbsup: And every single time I get...

Not really. The cut-to-fit refills will work, but the dealer is your best bet.

So I visited Watkins Glen last Wednesday and Thursday with the Boston BMWCCA. Fantastic event, well run, 4+ hours of track time over two days. It...

Did mine around 100k, didn't look terrible but was due for a change. An interval somewhere between 60k and 150k is a good place to start. This...

Car's back in the shop. I asked him to check the axle angles, check the lower control arm angle, and raise it up 3/8" unless all the suspension...

Wow.

Which o-ring did you nick?

The custom spacer would be necessary because I'm running out of hub. The MINI has about 10-11mm of hub, and my BBK takes up about 5mm. A typical...

Cool. I was sweating at the thought of having to run spacers that tight. All it takes is one piece of track rubber and boom, there goes the...

Busted strut? Sounds like if the car pulls one way under acceleration, the right/left sides are not loading/unloading at the same rate. Try...
