Bad landing??? Sorry

Especially the black ones, they actually go really well, if your a single occupant with no luggage... 5 people and bags and they handle like a brickies wheelbarrow, but slower.

F*#k that for a game of skittles. I'd be buying it to drive, here in NZ. I have zero interest in matyring myself to trainspotting notions of originality! Tried carparks, or open-roading in NZ in a left-hooker? ?

Hey guys . New to bimmersport but had a few bms . Currently have two . The wife has a 2011 x1 and i have my trusty e46 330 that i have done quite a bit of work on . The 330 is stock outside except slightly lowered . Running aftermarket schrick cams . Supersprint headers and straight pipes. Cai and tune . I like the old man standard look outside. Suprises a lot of people when foot goes down

Welcome to the forum. Nice cars you have there. The guys in Auckland have a monthly coffee meet. Check it out in the meeting sub section. I'm sure they'd be more than happy to see you along.

...but got the steering wheel on the wrong side.

Selling coffee at bp is the worst thing to happen ever. I dont give a fukk about coffee , but it grinds my gears when i wanna get gas and there is 2-3 attendants making coffee and no one to be seen serving the till for gas. Stand around waiting for kents to finish making coffee before theyll take my gas money.

TBH, it never really bothered me. Took a week or so to get used to and after that... It was just different. RHD headers for a M5 may be OK, but several of the cars I've had would have been a different matter. Various V8 Mercs, and a Porsche 928... RHD headers don't exist unless you have them custom made. That said, following a tractor down a narrow-ish country road while in the C10 was 'challenging'. There's no way (from the LHD driving seat) to tell when it's safe to overtake, and moving far enough out to see past meant anything coming the other way would have hit me before I could see them coming. Certainly not ideal.

Hi Matt Was the mirror from a Japanese import with the infrared remote entry if so their are two fuses to this unit. One for the auto dip and one for the remote entry fuses 24, 67 Also the auto dip part is wired into the reverse light, PDC if fitted circuit via a common connector x428 which is situated above the main fuse box a blue wire with a green trace BL/GE.Have had a further look and found in my notes the pin numbers on the mirror connector the coloured wires and where they go if you want that info

Picked up two new tires for the e46, overheard another customer looking for tires for their Pulsar or Primera... $270 each for Ecopias . Made me feel good about my $200 RE003s.

Amazing what turns up in little old New Zealand isn't it?

Thanks, my Dad does not too bad of a job considering it was done in a cold Invercargill garage back home Yeah I see what you mean about the Tow Bar, but its just so handy! I kinda want to fit a FancyWide style rear diffuser to the rear end too Took the Ti to the track today too! Only one spin, was going a bit hot in one of the sessions during my first lap out, cold tires and over estimated my grip levels. Other than that the car ran flawlessly all day! New pads went in after session 2, just before the lunch break and it all went well! Now I just need to get better at driving the thing! Might keep adding more stiffness into the front as its got plenty of grip up front but is getting a bit tail happy still, New PB around Ruapuna today too 1:51.126 and was consistently in the low 1:51's throughout the day. Apart from peeling the inside wheel when trying to floor it out of corners in 3rd she performed great! LSD is very tempting now, but I cant justify the costs just yet... Removing all the boot carpets allowed a lot more road and exhaust noise becauseracecar I will post another update when my big wang arrives back from being painted, and show how its all going to be mounted up. I will also track down the gopro footage from a mates gopro I borrowed for a session, my one is currently at the bottom of Lake Waihola after falling off the race boat last year.

They're reliable and professional. You won't go wrong there.

Perfect tip-off, matched me up two cans this morning and only charged me for one! Should have my door sorted next sunny, calm day!

Yes very arty farty pics but save the filter for the showroom rather than a trademe ad which should keep a car honest.

The E31 doesn't need much to jump up another level, pix from car dream Alpina japan.
