Re: Plastic restoration

Quite nice. I wish mine looked so pristine.

Question, how did you get the "gills" off please? I will assume pry gently at either the top or bottom? Or maybe the side? :roll: Thanks in advance.

Re: 1984 633CSi Rises again!

Awesome job Song. I've just caught up on the work you've been doing with the air dam and its very impressive. You've done a great job fixing it up and prepping it, and the finished paint looks outstanding. Great stuff, and thanks for sharing the progress. The colour looks stunning too. Colour-match...

Wonderful UK advert

Wow I found a old UK TV advert for the 635CSI it's not the "newer" M30 engine though. Still nice to see the our sharks killing it on the rolling countryside of Britain. :D

Or you can get a jewelers file and magnifying glass and also get the contacts inside the cap as well. The brass contacts on the cap and rotor should be shiney.

Re: 1984 633CSi Rises again!

Some roads have a steep crown on one side to help with road drainage, this may explain why one side wore differently than the other, as for kits I don't know. One thing I learned whilst working in my buddies alignment shop as shop help, was that having new tires and keeping them rotated every time y...

Re: Tell us what type of motor oil you prefer?

I ran into a AMS oil rep at the local car show Sunday. Interesting thing is that oil is not available on any store shelf where I live. I guess with out direct contact with the local rep, you are outta luck here.

Re: What do you think the best looking rims are for the shark?

Not impossible to get the Metric tires, just very, very pricy. Although it'll be even more so in Australia, what with shipping and import duty. U.S. prices today: 220/55VR390: $331 each 240/55VR390: $398 each and those with the 415 diameter wheels, hold on to you beer and have a seat.... 240/45VR41...

I'm just throwing this question out to the mob, to see what peoples' preferences are for their M30's, and recommendations? I am currently running Castrol GTX 20/50w. I have heard of people running 15/40w in other branded oil.
