I will be making major changes to the network that Bimmersport is hosted on tonight. In a perfect world the outage should be 5min, but given nothings perfect it may be an hour or two from 9PM.

Cant wait for James one to be finished .... mmmmmmm 600hp ......... boooooooooooost

till late = next day late afternoon

I have one......it's called granddads slipper and it is an awesome cruiser - had it 9 years......that tells you something.

Good work! It's not until you have sorted suspension and steering that you appreciate driving a bimmer.

Haha sorry bud need the lot gone. Harder to sell three wheels ay

Decided to let the pros fit this little lot as it was going to be a while before I could get a hoist to use (and convince my better half to let me spend more weekends not wining and dining her!!). The difference is outrageous.... Wow! So good. No just need to do the rear....

Agreed, one of the most horrendous body styles ever. And they chrome wrap it... Turd rolled in glitter anyone??

We'll that didn't take long. Time for sleep. BGP issues, upstream route issues, firmware issues.....you name it, it just happened in the last 24 hours.

Bad luck! Looks great anyway - as you say, it's always easier once you've done it once before. Live and learn eh! Keep it up!

I should think he charges extra if you make him keep the jap one

Cheers will text you

Or not....

looks like the same setup as E32/E34 as expected, totally different beasts with a front overhaul. I wonder if it uses E32 or E34 track width, do you know if the forward control arms are in the inner or outer holes on the subframe?

SJ, this one is mine http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=844044313

The joy of being a network engineer - feel ya pain.

I'm guessing 46...?

If I can drop in on Sunday morning you can take it for a run. Very different beast to the 540i, feels a lot more old school but I like that. Would have loved to have driven it with the original EDC but too difficult/expensive to fix/replace.

It's was the lowest point for Lexus IMO, they just lost complete focus and started producing utterly dull designs across the range, even the LS400, come LS430 looked awkwardly proportioned and the smaller mid range ES series ended up looking like a car imitating a praying mantis... The SC430 did take the take though... especially when it came to the story behind it's design phase: "The design team at Toyota's luxury division talked the bosses into sending them to the French Riviera for several weeks to study the "elegance, beauty, class and richness" of the surroundings to come up with the motivation to shape the sheet metal of the new 2002 Lexus SC430 hardtop convertible. But the trip was well worth the time and money because, the designers said, they got "visual inspiration" from the luxury yachts in the harbor and incorporated "some of the character lines" from those yachts into the body of the SC430. Don't know exactly which yacht so inspired the design crew. The finished product gives off hints that boats carrying the BMW, Audi, Jaguar and Porsche logos must have been in port the day the stylists spent time along the water ogling the sea-going craft"

jeez it was a long two hours

I'll take them

How will we survive D:

Yes, done heaps. My car was the first in the country to be done. One out, one in, but needs wiring mods. Don't have a unit on hand though. Do have the wiring plugs & map disc.
