  1. So in the last few days, my air con seems to have taken on a mind of its own... It'll start up fine but then after a few mins, the display dimms and it'll blow very cold air. After a few minutes of that it'll decide it wants to go back to what I set it to (which usually isnt even using the AC). When its dimms theres nothing I can do, the buttons dont work. I saw theres a guy on trademe who sells refurbished units for $50 if you send him your old one. Worth a try?

    Got Wof?

    My cat threw up a half digested lizard the other night that looked better for that
  3. I had a wee think about this last night and decided its a fake. Reason for this is the clavicles are too lumpy, you would only see this if they had been broken over and over again. The vertebrae are too compact in the neck. The recess in the eye sockets are too shallow, aparently this guy had no eyes. So yeah, Im saying fake. but a brilliant fake What does everyone else think?
  4. I guess we'll just have to whip their butts in the next game...oh wait, we forgot how to do that

    E36 service

    So being a kiwi bloke, I like to do the work to my car myself. But whats involved in those regular services we hear so much about? Just so I know what I need to keep an eye on:) Cheers!
  6. Yeah and I know my teaching but you never see me talk to my students like that
  7. Man you get anti at times! People should be able to provide information without worry of being hassled for it. Looks like I wont go for it, horsepower is worthless without torque and with the auto box Id have trouble. I have taken the first cat out already and replaced it with a high flow resonator. Don't know about any power difference but it sounds a little more business like.
  8. The research Ive done says that there are two versions of the M52 2.5 motor. One putting out 190hp and the other 170hp (mine). The only real difference is the intake manifold on the later version (mine again) was restricted to meet emission laws. Putting the other intake manifold on solves this problem. Does that sound rite? Ill chat with you guys for a few days before I make solid plans.
  9. So heres what I want to do, pop an M50 intake manifold on to my M52 engine. I have an E36 323i and I want the power those damn tree-huggers took off me in Germany haha. So heres what I want to know: Has anyone done this? Any problems I could encounter? Where can I find a M50 intake manifold? Wreckers? After that I might look at a pully system and then a dyno tune, I will be happy once I hit 200hp:) Any help would be fantastic!

    Stupid Terrior

    "Just as an aside - the highest number of attacks and fatalities in the world are down to Labradors - not Pit Bulls." I read that too, its down to them being so trusted so kids get all in their faces and make baby noises...Id attack if someone did that to me too:P
  12. Mines got that thud into second gear. Its a wee bit shameful when you've been telling everyone that the germans make awesome cars:P Ill be waiting to see what your guys say:)
