What did you do for your ZHP/ BMW / MINI today? #2

Thank you for your service to the amber indicator master race

Feck red turn signals and the VAG that pushes them

This x10000. Money I wish I didn't have to spend, but I have morals.

Reattached the intake box and hoses on the ZSP. Getting lean on banks 1 & 2. Hope I just didn’t put it back together right.

Hey guys, last mod was around a month ago, the AA headers (loving them)

But now looking around for a refresh of bushings all over, found a nice deal on garagistic bushings, but still missing the sway bar ones. And a question comes to mind, when looking into the rear sway bar, is it 18mm? Because it says NON SPORT, are these right for our beloved ZHPs? Are they 18mm or 22?

Thanks guys!

The coupe is 18 mmhttps://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...ng-33551138104

Yup, sedan too.

Convertible and xi models got a 20mm bar

With FCP Euro supplied parts and my Indy Mechanic's labor, replaced cooling system including radiator, water pump, theromstat (had soft failed), expansion tank, hoses, and temp sensor. Also replaced leaky VCG, and "while you are in there" the spark plugs and one coil which broke during removal. Finally, replaced leaky OFHG.

May sound like a lot, but considering I bought this vehicle on the cheap a year and 11K miles ago (at 155K, now at 166K miles) and have only done a couple of oil changes up to this point, I was happy to put this money in to keep this one on the road and running reliably well!

Good stuff. “While you’re in there” is absolutely the way to do it. I’ve tried to put off a few things instead of doing them while I was working on something nearby and it’s bitten me in the ass both times.

Swapped my ZHP to winter tires last night, not that I plan on driving it on the salty crappy roads now that I have the touring. Discovered the inside parts of two of the tires are bald... ugh. Don't want to buy another set of winters, but also don't want to buy no-seasons. Summers aren't ideal in the winter. Decisions...
