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

pics?

I wouldn't want to give away where I store my most prized steeds now would I?

I beg to differ!! Stu can chime in, but I know he has a hitch, and I've seen others with the hitch. Most have to cut the bumper for the receiver to be exposed, but Stu mounted his downward so the hitch receiver was hidden... And he does tow with it!!

I def use mine to tow. In fact one of the trailers is hooked up currently with the snow blower on it

Really? damn it! We turned down a really good deal on one that was traded in at Kristen's dealership for that very reason... Now we have a boring MDX

"ZHP is a garbage option anyway- just some cosmetic upgrades with a different cam and diff to claw back some of the performance lost fitting those hideous and heavy wheels. Any 330 with a 3.46 diff will smoke a ZHP every time. The whole Mafia thing reeks of childish behavior." - an e46fanatic

You can either use the oem BMW unit - but you have to cut bumper. Or you can use an invisible hitch system like mine (European design) and when you remove the receiver..you can see anything

I doubt that'll ever happen, but just in case, you'll be the first one I call...


Well, you see, the C&C event is held at the outlet mall... I asked the wife to drive with me. She was forced into 2 hours of C&C as the event started at 9, but the outlets didn't open until 11. Of course, she didn't get home until 2pm, and the event was finished at 12...


I don't think the X5 has the capacity to tow the M3... But that would look AWESOME...


Oh there's others...


Hah... The X5 was what she wanted... We happened into an M because I wanted a toy. I did sell my ZHP, so the fun car was missing. In hindsight, some days I should've kept the ZHP...

So...Cars and Coffee costs you $400 when you take both cars. Check. Got it.

Ordered for the wife's X3:
- Eccentric Shaft Actuator Seal
- Variable Timing Unit Gasket

Ordered for the ZHP:
- 20 lug bolts
- 4 center cap emblems
- 4 stick-on ///M emblems

Wheels get powder-coated and will wear brand new Michelin PSS's in Feb/Mar. Can't wait!

Ordered it all from AutohausAZ. It would be nice if one place would stock all OE parts. Every time I need 6 or 8 things, I can never get it all from one place. So, either I have to suck it up and wait a week because the east coast is the center of the auto parts universe, pay shipping twice (and wait a week), or order from someplace in the west and accept an OEM part or two. In this case, it was the VictorReinz version of the eccentric shaft actuator seal. It was less than half the price of the BMW part, and everything else was cheaper, so I went ahead with AutohausAZ. Hopefully the VR part is a good one. Planning to do the valve cover gasket in the next week or two.

Fun, fun!

AutohausAZ is a great place, I have never had an issue ordering from them for the M52 E30 or either Of the ZHPs
