I feel exactly the same about the black.. thats why I was interested to hear what someone else would do with the face

I've been looking at those ^^ what would you change the face colour to though? all I can see in my mind is silver.. or gunmetal grey... etc..or you could go all mcdubs and go fluro haha

Custom if u can? would be better.. could get it how u want it, keep it nice and cool, and it'd be new

E30 325i Unsure about torque reccomendation for doing up the 6 bolts holding the axles to the diff/diffoutput shafts, have read: 42-46 ft-lbs, is this the right torque or am I reading about the wrong thing? Passengers side came out in the middle of main south road, was lucky the exhaust caught it, and drivers was loose so wanna avoid this sh*t again! cutting corners never pays off.

Sick of spending on the E30(every E30 owner knows the feeling im sure!), Sooooo I wanna dolly the E39 up in the not so distant future, so I'm looking at these in a staggered F19x8.5 R19x9.5's, or 18's if 19's make a noticably uncomfortable ride.. the E39 is the daily/road trip luxobarge http://magandtyredirect.co.nz/wheeldetail.php?rc=1137 Do you have a pic of these fitted Jono, lowered or not lowered either will do? What would I be looking at for the staggered set w/o tyres? will head into the CHCH branch sometime soon hopefully Cheers, Andrew

-LIKE-

^^ LOL Brought some locktite for the halfshaft bolts..having it disconnect from the diff once is once to much lol then looked at the E30 sitting in the garage and decided i'll do it another day

^ awesome bro, touche'

...

But the message is there, get a BMW

coz i can in before the lock

pics please

or a 4g61t cyborg motor..still a 1.6 then aswell dont have to change the badge

Don't waste your time with a GSR.. and when people go on about 5k paint job's etc it doesnt matter a sh*t, doesnt up the price 5k instantly..maybe 1k if its good, or ohh its 1g worth of bucket seats... good on it..theyre second hand now so scrap that figure alarm bells start ringing at "mean wastegate"/external probably has a screamer and is venting to atmo...so your gonna have to plumb it back or find a relaxed wof officer 'cause end of the day they're not gonna cert a exhaust leak in your engine bay..which leads to other questions since you have to give it a good squirt to get it venting, whats the clutch like..no doubt had afew hard launches on it, list goes on and on... I'm 19... I have mates who went down this path/still doing it GTS-t's, A31's, GSR's, STi's, EVO's GT4's, GTi-R's..they all fell in trouble with the law, drive around with no insurance because they simply cant afford it and constantly have sh*t going wrong cause some dipshit has done rangimods to anything with a turbro on it nowadays... Honestly getting a GSR is like settling for seconds unless your mechanically minded and wanna f**k around with them, Evo 3 Turbo, injectors, AFM and chipped single board ecu or whatever they do to them all to get them hooning a bit...afew thousand more that you'd spend on the above items, plus labour and time, mantainence and you could have the real deal which are way better..then it'd justidy owning it I suppose...still got heaps of hassles if its been neglected, insurance, petrol Better of with anything BMW/Euro/nana spec jap that doesnt attract cops or theives as much IMO If u have money to burn and burn on go for it..otherwise i'd wait a while longer and stick with ya bimmer

another CHCH winner

"Linden" is selling two sets of angel eyes last i checked

He's from Dunedin, needs a couple 'coz of all the hills and uni students snapping them off no doubt haha

And it's a fresh import so you'd hope this didnt worry him aye haha

new plates are feck all from memory? certainly not a re rego charge anyway lol someone will be able to shed light on a cost,

PM with how much you'd be after for it with afew more details..last i checked parents might be on the look out for something small for mum, this would be perfect

yeah was just seeing if some would reply now incase they had a set lying around. will try Mike(synthe) etc 2mrw, not for me so not in a huge rush tbh haha

how much for a set of manual window winders for a 4dr E30 to CHCH... mate just brought one and it has none, just missing the handle/winder for some bizzar reason Andrew

It's begging for a 2j with two good sized huffers!
