328FTW

Sold today. Perfect buyer, pretty much trouble free deal this time and cash in hand. End of saga, cheers everyone.

I had another buyer kinda blow me off on the weekend. It's rather tiresome, I've relisted. I've been driving this car every weekend to the shop to work on my other cars, it doesn't skip a beat; driven it to hamilton and back a couple times to cause its heater is a godsend in the cold rain. No one keen at around 2100? I have very good TM feedback, I don't want to really go lower than 2k because it's getting rediculous for a good running E30.

There is 2 or 3 things. As jason said the contacts die, they are in a greased area and eventually buildup or whatever causes bad contact. Another thing is the controller relay thing can die, it's K10? or something in your fusebox, big long thing with 5-7 pins on it. I changed mine out for another but no dice. The last thing is the plug contacts, mine were a bit oxidized, some cleaner stuff and a stiff brush sorted it out. Mine was the disc in the wiper. I think it's a common issue. Getting the motor out to mess with it is quite a pain in the ass. But once you have the cover off you might as well also do the interior fan resistor while you're at it if it's acting up. I did all that and now all the sh*t that often doesn't work is fine.

Yes well I'm not quite sure where you would pick up a decent running E30 for a better price. My grandmother tipped off a couple weeks ago and I've inherited her car to now which needs a clutch job, the E30 is kind of just in the way now cause I've got other cars to use. If someone is kind of a keen collector of these things I have a spare auto gearbox, rear window, front subframe and some other odd bits to could take with it for free if they wanted. Otherwise I'll offload on here cheap or scrap them. They'll just sit around rotting and in the way otherwise.

I've fixed the wipers, bonnet latch and all that stuff, only thing not working is the AC. The fixed price auction ends tonight but I'm still open to offers. I really want the driveway space more than anything. It's still one of the cheapest ones on there and not a complete pile of sh*t with a blown box or something. If someone wants something to convert to manual this is it, you need this car

Bonnet cable and windscreen wiper motor?

Hey guys, since that tard messed me around buying the car I might as well fix some things. My bonnet cable snapped and my wiper motor I've found the contact disk for the park position is rusted. Fixing these 2 things would make the car about fully functional again. If someone is parting and can pull the cable out then that'd be choice. Tardme says I have to wait like 5 days for this fool anyway, so be productive and all that. Cheers.

I did have my own doubts but on the phone I grilled him for answers and was satisfied. In the end it's just someone playing games with my time and happy to talk out their ass to do it. I was originally going to go that route however I was so busy I didn't have much time to meet with people, the auction was set over my break period so I had time to meet with people and I could control the timeframe of that happening however it only took one to screw that up

I gave the guy with negative feedback the benefit of the doubt because he phoned me first and gave me details, seemed good. Turns out he was an utter time waster, wanted me to pay for a garage to look it over and all sorts when he's already basically bought it. He never viewed and got cold feet last second so started mumbling about stupid sh*t. 1900 is cheap as sh*t for this thing and I've listed defects etc best I can, I've put a one day fixed offer out at that same 1900 and if that doesn't bite then I'll have to decide if I can be f**ked with more trademe dickheads and trolls or just say 2k firm and put it on the side of the road. Pretty mad. Actually furious would be a better word, it's a sh*t tactic by a flaky person.

Bump up, auction ends in about 5 hours. It's still cheap as, would leave plenty in the budget to do a manual conversion. I got trademe to sort that first pillock but there are still some noobies and one -1 rep person bidding, I really don't want to be messed around if I can help it so bids from more solid members are very welcome Edit: Also here is the working OBC, ain't she purdy in red.

Anything else needed for the revin?

For the low bid price of $1001 you can do whatever you want to the intake manifold and I'll even help. As for OEM interior and weaved wheels, eh. Seats that have that have done high kms have tears and aren't really a sell point either, popping for good OEM seats isn't doesn't make sense to me cause I love the ones it has. Wheels are really up to the owner, it's mostly stock and that's how I like it. The nature of car culture is whoever buys it can do as they wish

Buy it and I'll throw in the oldest most broken set of golfclubs you've ever seen. Don't have a rugby ball though sorry, $20 refund if it's that important

They're blacklisted, the profile name is Shae and it's someone I've blacklisted before for messing with my auctions. They've made a new account, I'd have to ask trademe to remove the bid and ban the account. I'll see if they can and maybe block the IP. I'm not really having a giggle over it

All good then, I do have a 4 spoke laying around off another car and it's 100x nicer than that.
