Anyone know what this is?

Looks like it could be CDV related. Cleaned out under the passenger seat this weekend and there it was.

Flux capacitor?

Caddyshk · 04-01-2013, 01:13 PM

Clutch Stop of some kind?

OG_M3 · 04-01-2013, 01:53 PM

Looks almost homemade. I don't think anything OEM/OE is blue anodized.

attacoupe · 04-01-2013, 03:26 PM

Thanks guys. Does look to be a valve stem. I'm sure its not OEM. I think Volk/Rays made anodized valve stems to go with their colored wheels. Maybe the PO had TE37s. Also, the M coupe is Interlagos so the blue anodization makes some sense. Not my cup o' tea though.

I too found gifts under my passenger seat...a broken cupholder arm. haha.

I found a little foam washer about a year ago.
Just figured out what it was last night.
Door panel came loose at the bottom. Little foam washers go over the pins that hold it on.

papitosabe · 04-01-2013, 08:14 PM

found a bottle of vodka

GammaZeta · 04-01-2013, 10:14 PM

I think that's part of the flux capacitor.

seank · 04-01-2013, 10:17 PM

I found kama sutra book. Seriously.

The mystical "M" position; it may be quick and fast, but leaves both riders satisfied.
