  1. Theres been four rolling sedans for sale the past 24hours, is there something going on we dont know about?!
  2. The way I potentially see it. If it costs an extra few thousand when your potentially borrowing money at a lower interest rate, it doesn't make alot of difference at the time to ensure you get the purchase. As a percentage when your spending larger sums of money to add on the extra "tax" people are trending to do it. Overall bang for buck the e30/36 chassis is still pretty good compared to other desirable vehicles. I certainly won't be selling mine anytime soon, I'd have to finish it first 😂
  3. Don't get me wrong I'm all for the things I own to improve in value. However I also struggle to believe a vehicle I brought has skyrocketed in "value" in less than two years. It's not like in that time half them fell off the road or got written off so they got rarer. I believe it's to do with "hype" combined with what was low interest rates over that period and essentially "free interest" lended money. This is confirmed when in the last 3 months the car values are dropping 20% atleast from a year ago and appear to be sitting on trademe from the auctions I follow across all sorts of vehicles
  4. Do you have a link to it? Cant seem to find it!
  5. Back into this thing and is progressing. Working through driveshaft hoops at the moment. Along with exhaust, will put some photos up next day or so in regards to that. Have an adrenalin r twin 2" back box, and a pair of 2" torque chambers, will be a full twin 2" system stainless. Here's a couple of photos of a pair of shoes I tried on today Bit over tired at the moment, was more to try on fitment wise if I manage to stumble across a set for myself.
  6. Posts like these encourage me to get a wriggle on! Good job on all the above, looks tidy and a good package!
  7. Well this is an awesome combination https://www.trademe.co.nz/3607526890 Side note....anyone want to buy an e30 coupe in project state....
  8. It will be part no 25117527252 ? Is also on my next import list for mine
  9. Bit of late night last night with @euroriffic. Tidied up the wiring alot, none really visable which i wanted to achieve. Will work on headers and driveshaft hoops next to then waterblast/scrub the engine bay to then install the radiator. Injector/fuel rail cover will get slightly adjusted to sit better.
  10. Last set just sold on trademe couple weeks ago and there was a post a few weeks before that for someone else looking. Best bet these days is to retro fit some older Recaro. The sports seats are getting hard to find, not alot of people are parting cars out these days
  11. https://www.trademe.co.nz/3544258196 This seems not too bad? Ripe for an engine swap or even a nice tidy up
  12. Pair of Brembo 4 pot/piston calipers off a BMW e38. These brakes are a great upgrade and there's adapters out there available to suit BMW knuckles. Light and big brakes, bigger and lighter than e36 M3 brakes as shown in last picture $350 plus freight from Dunedin
  13. There's a few things I noticed when I viewed it that others who haven't owned/know about wouldn't pick up that would trip them up and be costly
  14. Few things I noticed when I viewed it last week. Anyone with questions feel free to PM
