  2. Yeah, I have owned an 1986 LHD us spec & this one RHD. I use my discretionary money buying cars I couldn't afford in yesteryear. Someone cleverer than me could advise whether I am correct in buying cars that I couldn't afford in yesteryear but now have my discretionary money for this. I like to look at 'my money' in the garage, if you ask your bank to, 'show me my money,' they can't physically show you even a small gold bar,' That said, are these collectable, gain value and an investment? I have to say I prefer the RHD for driving these sport style cars on NZ roading. Used LHD for driving to track and home. From, personal preference I choose RHD every time.
  3. How do you know what value to place on these cars in N Z? This one rolled off the production line 20/11/1990, among the last batch made I understand, BMW Germany had it sent to Hartge Gemany to convert to RHD. It was then despatched for the CEO of Baron's in the . It was first registered in UK as RHD. I've heard Claytons BMW Auckland had done some for a few new owners in N Z. This week it's up for WOF & week after that available for a new owner perhaps to drive away and turn the100,000 miles milestone. It is not a Evo Model but it was fitted with a 158 kW powered engine. So folks what pricing would one expect from a willing buyer offer to a willing seller?

    An S42 BMW Engine

    Anything is possible. Not many 4 cyl bmw, normally aspirated , approaching 300bhp driving the streets.
  5. Well this was a runner until Sunday when the dry sump return pump failed! I can't afford to buy a new one.Already spent well over my budget. This was last run in Clayton's F2 single seater a few years back. We had the head rebuilt last year and it has been running in our 2002. We previously had been running an m44 with ITBs as a Road & track car. Then an out & out race car with between 260-300 bhp to be had. 2002 going back to a Road & track car. You would be buying a dry-sumped m42 block with an s42 crank & pistons, tank, s42 head and extractors. Buyer would have to provide a. Dry Sump Pump, ITB induction, electronics. (G4 Link). Able Engineering. Feilding, had the engine running on Tuesday & declared motor was unscathed from the pump failure. Just need's new pump. $8800, ( This amount would make my Bank Manager happy with me again.) Once motor is out will put more pics up. Txts to 0284655325

  10. Editing in width 330mm.
  11. Came out of an e30 race car Very good condition $400 Measurement, where bum sits, 330mm
  12. Went to buy set of e30 wheel studs from them. US$80, shipping quote was US$157! I messaged them that l was not happy with their one international shipping/packaging option. Also pointed out their business might prosper with offering other options in their services providers and packaging means i.e. using sized bags and not putting a small part in a big box. I also pointed out they 'subsidize' their mainland US customer's on large orders maybe they could do that too for international customers. I also pointed out TMS provide two options & do appropriate bag/box sizing. My last order from them was a small item US28 shipping US$10 or a US$57 options. A few dollars less for a few days more suited me. Yeah, l know there is the NZPost lnternational Parcel system & there are Sea-chests that some firms have in place. We could be using those but l like a one stop shop system. Are there other means of getting our goods to NZ at a fair and reasonable cost ?
  13. Yeah, e30 a rear CV joint has let go. Have e36ti rear end, so thought was l could use a rear drive-shaft from that?
