Just finished one side of the car, springs are Tein, Koni shocks and M3 arms. Pretty straight forward but torquing the rear arms at the chassi point is a pain in the arse, no room to work. Tein springs have a 595 lb/inch rate which is higher than standard Msport 460 and M3 560. I used a 9mm spacer to raise the ride height a bit as I dont like it too low. I will post up a full review when I get the font done as well.

Parked opposite my house in Ellerslie... reveal yourself!

Finally found and installed a mint set of 350M wheels 8x18. Given the chance I put 4 new tyres as well. No more run flats... looks good and most Important did not cost me a fortune. Thanks to Kyu he sealed the deal super fast.

Waited 4 months for a used rust-free sunroof to turn up from an E31 collector in Canada. Finally got it painted and fitted. Now just waiting on some pesky headlining clips that are (of course) only found on the E31 and E32, so BMW NZ only had 4 in stock out of the 16 I need. Hopefully fresh headlining will be in by Xmas!! Only other outstanding jobs are crank position sensors - which will be a summer job as they're a bit of a mission to change - and servotronic steering retrofit - which I'm in absolutely no hurry to do!! haha

Used but in good condition. Has usual scratches and marks you get when these are used. Comes with one brand new Genuine gruppe M airfilter ($380 to buy) and one used but cleaned filter. These are over $3000 brand new, asking half price of a new one with one new filter! $1500

Hi all My name is Subhash.I am really happy to be a part of this esteemed community. I have been a non-member follower of this forum for the last few weeks and have gone through many threads containing loads of useful information. My love for BMW started a few years back, when i had a chance to test drive a BMW 3series. I had fell in love with car at first sight. The sheer driving pleasure,the comfort and the build quality amazed me and made me a fan right away . Even though i couldn't afford a BMW at that time i never missed a chance to drive it whenever i could. After all the wait finally i now own a BMW 320i 2007 model for myself. I imported the car from japan and got it delivered last week. Here are the few pics of my car:

Removed all the parts I need from the parts car for my manual transmission swap into the touring. If anyone has ideas on how to remove the pedal box assembly I'm all ears. I feel like i ended up removing a lot more things than what was actually required.

New rear lower bumper trim to tidy up the appearance followed by a bath.

Two very nice 3 series - an e36 Dakar Yellow M3 coupe and an e30 m325i manual. Both within a couple of minutes of each other!
