Brembo caliper pin punch, so I don't scratch my pretty calipers.

Interesting. Not a fan of the current scale. Pretty sure it's a liar. Looking into this now.

That Garmin is kinda sexy.
The Withings Body+ I use seems to be consistent; and it integrates into my Apple ecosystem flawlessly. This is also worth considering.

Checking it out now. Thanks!

I have an ok-ish scale. Does the job, but the body metrics are just unreliable. I'm crazy lean these days. One morning I can weigh and it seems spot on, the next day I can stand on it and somehow I've gained almost 2-3% body fat in a day. I understand that water intake sways this heavily.

Only let you slide since I'm looking at M4`s. Not ready to drive an automatic yet...

You know what, I'd driven my last car owned by me with manual tranny in 2015. Starting with automatic at my 435i for the first time and meanwhile I couldnt imagine to turn back to manual. Even in crowd traffic its sooo relaxing just to hold the brake (if you had no comfort autohold) instead than holding the clutch also. Its much more comfortable without being lazy for me. The M4s with manuals are very rare here at Germany, but they are present, coupés and convertibles.

Bought a used set of 340/330 calipers and rotors to upgrade the f31d.
& Paint to make them pretty.
Purchase and color were spousally approved (Yellow was disapproved).
Figured the extra 1/2 inch or so for Mperformance really wasn’t worth $1000 more on a DD compared to stock 312/300!

Mind sharing where you purchased these.

I’ve got a set of power blocks and I’d love to get them off the floor.

Barbell attachment looks great too.

I got them from the powerblock website. https://powerblock.com/product-categ...sories/stands/

Some M-performance parts.

At first I thought both small ones should be mounted on the same pedal.

But it looks like there's "one too many" (quote video). The option to kick through the floor and brake with the foot against the ground must be a valid reason to skip the clutch ("Safety first!").

JP10 · 08-07-2020, 08:16 AM

Brake fluid is running low and need to change the oil. Thinking I'll check my rotor thickness and maybe face them if they're not too low. Also scooped a shirt for the wife since all the guy sizes were out, it was free for orders over $200. Not sure how their sizes go, but figure it'll be more of a night shirt for her doubt she would wear in public so went with a large size

EdM5 · 08-09-2020, 07:15 AM

wearable AC - pretty cool

jmg · 08-10-2020, 03:01 AM

Finally upgraded my Hero4 for a Hero8 for track days and ordered a wireless mic for picking up my exhaust. Much improved!

Not my fastest day (knocked my alignment waaaaay off when I went off the track), but this video shows off my new AV setup.

Actually in Germany you could only order for MT at a F82/F83, the size of the brake pedal should match the size of same brake pedal at the F3x.
Hence the only AT set is for F3x only, you could nail the clutch cover to the wall...or sell it elsewhere

BMW sells only this two options.

I curse the Apple TV remote regularly. Hoping this elago case helps quell that a bit. Picked red for high visibility.

I'm cursing you even more right now...for making me order one! I don't use my Apple TV very often, but that remote is an absolutely unusable piece of garbage in my hands because it is so thin and slippery whenever I do pick it up.....

Exactly. Plus I seem to get what side is up incorrect 50% of the time.

RickFLM4 · 08-10-2020, 04:46 PM

I hate that little remote. The only time I use the Apple TV remote is when I accidentally trigger “Voice Over On” because the Apple TV remote lets me say “Voice Over Off” pretty easily. Otherwise I just use my Logitech Harmony to control the Apple TV.

Nice setup. Can't wait to get back to Big Willow with my M2c. That and Chuckwalla are my faves.
