1.8t TT's are good in the twisties but the turbo is just too small and runs out of puff, leaving you needing more.

Build thread of sorts. This car has been all over the country and is probably the only tech1 that I would own.

Love it. Almost as good as Estorial.

Well it's gone now so I sure hope someone knows what they have got themselves into.....

How much for the left headlight and indicator? If the indicator is orange....

Are there any differences in the m60 auto gearboxes between e34, e38 and e39s?

I'm sure there are plently things people have lying around. My things generally tend to be wheels.

Mixed first week of owning it...ditched the 19s and put these on as I had them lying around. A lot more subtle and less in your face so I think I'll keep them. The 19's lacked hub centric rings so 80km wobble is gone. To the bad, got stuck at the mall today as it wouldn't select reverse (man these cars are heavy!). All the forward gears change smooth and no strange noises that I can hear. A quick google shows it as a common thing with the check ball in the valve body has worn out. Anyone have any other opinions??

I'm fairly sure this was a classifed with $12k ONO and now its gone to auction.....I wonder what has changed?

My mate has the outline of NZ with a tack on Christchurch located on the inside of his forearm. When we were travelling, everyone loved it. I have always wanted one but never been able to decide on what to get until now. It is a modified silver fern and I will get it started once the football season is over. I have seen some stupid tattoo's but they are usually attached to stupid people. I think the general public don't mind either as long there is some sort of meaning to it and none of this YOLO sh*t that seems to be the trend at the moment.

I'm fairly sure Greg was looking into this a while back. Not sure if anything came of it but I'm sure he will chip in.

Ray, Any idea as to what kind of engine issues?

I can tell you that the wheels look a lot better in person than in photos. I was going to throw them away at the first chance I got but now, not so sure. Shall see how I go with getting rid of the wobble tomorrow and then decide.

I throw a cheeky bid on a 540 on Tuesday only to get an email 9hours later saying I had won it for a tinny more than 3k....did not expect that.... Went an picked it up on Wednesday and it's in quite good running order. It has sat in the guys garage for the past two years and his wife told him enough was enough and it had to go. It's a pretty well optioned Jap import, just missing the leather interior which I will find some as the cloth is starting to go. So far, I've given it a well needed oil change for which it thanked me for running alot smoother. I've also fixed the drivers seat belt as it wasn't pulling down. Next is to sort out the 80km/h wobble...I suspect it is due to the fact that he had to fit 5mm spacers to get the front wheels on so I will probably do that tomorrow. Enough talking....more photos...

That's the problem with boost. Once you get a taste, you always need more.

Pics must be 800 x 600 for them to work.

Pretty close - it's about 8 - 8.5hours from Dunedin to Picton as there is a large 80k section around Kaikoura and will get stuck behind a few trucks in that part. Very do-able in a weekend.

I know there is an M3 Compact in the secret ///M garage in Munich but don't think they ever made a wagon.

I'm going to buy it for the sole reason that it has Ruapuna. Gotta get those practice laps in.

Bump as Ezra is useless at this internet thing Bonnet found but still after foglights and foglight brackets.

That one would have been great but the seller was a pain to deal with and since I couldn't see it in the flesh, it wasn't worth the risk.

I did see that in my daily emails from Trademe but I'm in no rush at the moment. You still have yours??? I thought you sold your e30? The main reason I want an e36 is the stack of e36 parts I have in my garage just sitting there collecting dust and getting in the way.

Hi guys, I'm on the look out for an e36 wagon at the moment. Ideal car would be Black, manual, 6 cyclinder, leather and a sunroof. Would consider pretty much anything however, if the price was right. Current budget is 4k but that will expand rapidly to 6k + over the coming month once back pay and yearly bonus get paid out. E: Would be willing to do a deal with my e36 328i coupe as well.

Location?
