The teflon coated tends to fetch alot more. when i was going to buy one mid last year they was ending at about £140 with bids. those up for £400 isn't going to sell very qui...

Re: Eaton supercharger kit

Would be cool, but for £1395 i would expect a charger to be included.
I Always thought that a m42 was an e30 engine and the m44 was e36. If that is the case then it should fit the same.

Re: Flo-Flex LCA Bushes

Mine are the same, but under hard braking the inner balljoint won't move which in turn won't allow the bottom arm to move. I've never had an issue with mine. As long as it hasnt got side to side movement they will be fine.
