So got a very nice surprise today. Had both the powder coater and machine shop call saying all the parts are ready for pick up. Sorry about the bad picture as they were taken with the parts in the boot. Block all nice and clean now, broken bolts taken out and no need for a resurface as it was straight as. Flywheel resurfaced and lighten, now down to 10.4kgs I should have weighed it before hand but say it must be atleast 3-4kgs taken off. and Rocker covers all coated gloss white and underside unpainted. Getting closer to getting this thing put back together. Will be taken the block to the engineers later this week to get measurements to help with fitment for the ITB setup.

Hi all, I've been on this forum for about two months, which is when I first purchased a bone stock 135i. Modifications currently on the car are mainly visual. Visual Mods: Started off with the Front bumper Gloss black Wrap, Plasti-dip Grille, Carbon diffuser, Carbon Boot-lip and finally Black-line Taillights thanks @BM WORLD Recently got a set of Nkb Elite 7X with NITTOs, Engine modification: Not too much , will be FBO shortly though. Currently running MHD Stage 1+ Look forward to meeting members at meets -Nathan

Nitrous, tubbed rear, and a parachute. Awesome on the quarter mile

M10B18 and an auto box. Drive it around Auckland... You're stationary most of the time anyway - no one will know! Does look lovely.

depending on which exchange rates you are working off the price is a little below the international market for LHD examples in similar condition and mileage. E30 tax applies 10 fold on M3s and about 20 fold for the Evo3. The conversion would certainly have a negative effect, but it is still a genuine Evo3 and fairly easy to swap back to LHD if you can track down the parts. Fingers crossed it will stay in NZ and not go overseas as we have lost one glorious Evo3 recently already.

Wicked car, did you used to come into spruce goose a bit? I worked there and a guy with a white M3 came in every now and then. There can't be many around welly. Anyway, if it was you, you may remember a kid with a mustache telling you what he thought of your car, and that it was his dream to own one! Welcome

I think Birds did Hartge conversions...

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

I like the "Never had a problem" and "starter motor replaced" I replace my starter motor too sometimes, just for fun.

begging for a v8....

Moving the rack is one option, you might find it easier with some adjustable tired ends such as these... http://131abarth.com/shop/uniball/en/home/768-raidetangonpaan-bump-steer-kitti.html https://www.akgmotorsport.com/product/bump-steer-correction-kit-e36/ http://www.bimmerworld.com/Suspension-Steering/Steering-Components/Ground-Control-Adjustable-Bump-Tie-Rods-E36.html

a little below the "ASKING PRICE" in the international market -there is a glut of these for sale, and a lot of them are sale proof- unrealistic vendors not moving to meet the market. At the asking price you could buy several cars that would satisfy the most ardent enthusiast amongst us and still have several thousand dollars left in your wallet!

sounds like plenty of fun, Steve. the world loves e46's! Welcome!

Welcome from Welly Steve. Love the 330 Q-car - and always good to have another X on here!

Yes im very happy . I also have a 2004 ss holden and it has nothing on the 330 . Even though its running cai and mafless tune with headers . The 330 smokes it

I am sure there are lots of examples we could make,but we talking about a biggish well specced sedan

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

she lives, the real credit goes to Ray at HELBM. I just reconnected. first_start_up.MOV

And here it is team! One awesome piece of machinery dry sump system. Stage 4 pump and pan is so light - only 4cm deep! Just looks so shiny I'm like a kid in a candy store

Welcome Kaine, Nice car!! I look forward to meeting you & having a look over your car
