M240i DME out to AutoTuner...

Finally received my Ground Control camber plates for the Ohlins coilovers I am putting on the M240i. These took a good amount of time to get and where a bit of a hassle, and of course, are missing the correct sleeved adapters to fit Ohlins that I specified on order. So now I have to deal with their amazing "customer service" again. Ugh.

Me reading this post, hoping it accidentally becomes a full trans rebuild DIY writeup

There is already a pretty decent looking one on Youtube from Ethan that I will be using:

Why'd you choose ground control over suspension secrets for the the Ohlins? SS stuff is really nice

I was looking at Suspension Secrets stuff as well but decided on Ground Control because they are here in the US. I don't care about the whole "USA MADE" BS, so my decision was more about time and tariffs.

In retrospect, I made the wrong decision.

So many low quality A90 self absorbed vloggers and “influencers” pushing recycled takes on youtube, but this guy is pretty solid. Explains why the algorithm ignored it on my feed. Only problem... the “entire garage floor as a workbench” method was rough on my OCD.

Won't be useful, but I remember way back I used to watch this guy for fun, just to see how the ZF8 and its mechatronic unit were assembled.

What, you don't find some random dude sitting in his garage or car and and just talking into the camera for two hours about stuff, but not actually doing anything, valuable?

Or how about the guys holding the camera way up in the air, tilting it down so we’re staring straight up their nostrils while they flail around like they’re conducting some fucken invisible orchestra.
"YO WHAT UP EVERYBODY IT’S YO BOI… PEEEEWDAPAAAAA! I’m about to head to cars n coffee with the soup gang and we bout to tear up the streets YOW, haha six seeveeen! SO COME ALONG FOR THE JOURNEY… and if you like what you see here, liken subscriiiiiiibe"

Street racing videos where everything is pitch black and all you see is headlights and all you hear is distorted wind. Like that babbayagga BS. What is the opposite of a BAFTA Award for best cinematography? Trash Shit Award?

Content Creator = broke ass talentless fool

Then they proceed to speed and whip through traffic like Aholes while going "LETS GOOOOO" or "YEESSHHH" and "Sooo SICK BOYYY"

lol Yea... let's make a shitty-ass recording of ourselves driving recklessly on the street to see whos dick is bigger, because I showed all my instagram followers my dynojet. So of course i need to end up killing myself in a horrific accident for the views. stockf130 or whatever the hell his name was.

Thought it was called the "Brain-Rot Awards" hosted by the Street Takeover Gang. The only time I wouldn't mind Will Smith slapping the hosts

This is painfully accurate of the current times we live in...sigh

Everything is anti-American currently, even "Americans".

Once "Iceland" is part of the United States, everything will be fine.

Gotta say that AutoTuner's email updates are delightful:

It's going to happen. Trump just addressed the nation of Venezuela

Ebay, there are a ton. I think I spent like $50 on it

I love the look of that. I’d love one for the Supra but what is it actually called? “Firewall brace BMW” doesn’t bring up anything like that.
