I live in Waiuku and we were swallowed up about 20 years ago by Franklin. Yes, we lost our ability to do things in our community, and everything seems to take longer to get sorted now, and cost more, not less. Anything that's worthwhile will survive if people want it to, and most of what's being said at the moment is scaremongering by people who don't like change. It will not make any difference to towns like mine, it may even help.

Don't hit that link unless you want to have your comp hijacked. Won't hurt it, but will be very annoying.

Go to my link and follow it thru the E36 side, they do for the Z3/ti rears. Same price.

Yeah, wouldn't put up the whole link? Why? You smart arse.

Ireland's now use these, Delrin. http://store.nexternal.com/shared/StoreFro...reland&All= Go to E30, then performance parts, then suspension, then solid rear mounts. Good price, you need 2.

Check your wiring to the Starter, alternator and your engine earths.

Seen this one Kym? E28 Pin 1, BU goes to alternator. Goes to alternator "charge indicator" light in instrument cluster. Pin 2, BU/VI or BU/RD static oil level sender unit. Goes to static oil level light in the active check control unit. Pin 4, BR/WH Coolant temp sensor driver wire. Runs to coolant temp gauge in instrument cluster. Pin 6, GN/YL goes to the O2 sensor heater relay. Gets power from fuse 6 and in the fuse box is colored GN/WH. Pin 7, GN/VI gets power from Pin 87 of Fuel Pump Relay and goes to fuse 1 in the fuse box. Pin 8, BK/YL Starter trigger wire comes from the ignition key. Pin 9, Not used Pin 10, WH/BK To Diagnostic connector Pin 6. Said to be "not used". Pin 12, GN Powers the coil from fuse 1 of fuse box Pin 13, BU/WH Dynamic oil level sender unit. Goes to oil level light in active check control unit. Pin 14, BR/GN Oil Pressure switch. Runs to oil pressure light in instrument cluster. Pin 15, WH/BU Service indicator to Diagnostic connector. Pin 16, GN Is the same as the GN wire in Pin 12 and is actually spliced together with the wire from Pin 12 at S127 Pin 17, GN/VI To Fuel pump relay through splice S128 E34 uses a round style connector to plug into the fuse box. This has 20 pins so I will list what the wires in each of those do. Pin 1, BU goes to the alternator. Comes from the Instrument Cluster "charge indicator" light. BU in the fuse box. Pin 2, GN/YL comes from oil lever sensor. It is BU/BK in the fuse box and runs to the static oil level active check control unit, which is the same as the oil level light. Pin 4, BR/VI comes from the coolant temp sender unit. It is BR/VI in the fuse box and goes to the Instrument cluster temp gauge. Pin 5, BR/GN Oil pressure switch. Runs to instrument cluster oil pressure light. Pin 6, GN/WH goes to the O2 sensor heater relay. Gets power from fuse 9 and in the fuse box is colored GN/YL. Pin 7, GN comes from the ignition switch and goes to the Start Input, in the motronic unit and it also goes to Pin 15 on the coil. In the fuse box it is colored GN. Pin 8, WH/BK comes from the motronic unit "present fuel rate output". Is YL/WH in fuse box and runs to Fuel Economy Gauge in the bottom of the tach. Pin 9, BK goes to the ECU Engine speed output. This is BK in the fuse box. On the E28 this actually should be the connected in C103. Pin 10, BU comes from the oil level sensor. It is VI/GN in the fuse box and goes to the active check control unit as the dynamic oil level light. Pin 11, WH/GN comes from Pin 7 of the diagnostic connector. Is WH/BU in the fuse box and goes to the Service Indicator Processor. Pin 12, GY comes from the ECU and is the trigger for the "Check Engine" light control. In the fuse box it is BR/BK. This wire is not used on the E28, since there is no check engine light. Pin 13, GN/VI comes from Pin 87 of fuel pump relay. Is VI/RD in fuse box and runs to Fuse 11. Pin 14, BK/WH comes from motronic unit "Speed Signal Input". Is BU/YL in fuse box and goes to the Speed Input of the Instrument Cluster. Pin 15, BK/GN comes from Pin 30h on the coil. In the fuse box it is BK/GN and runs to the unloader relays. Pin 16, WH/BK comes from Pin 6 of diagnostic connector and is used in the SRS system. In the fuse box it is WH/BK and is said to be not used. Pin 18, BK/YL is the starter trigger and comes from in the car. It is also BK/YL in the fuse box. It also runs to Pin 11 of the diagnostic connector. Pin 20, RD/YL comes from Pin 87 of the main relay. It is RD/YL and goes to power the ABS Hydraulic Unit.

I've got a smashed one here you can have to try, give me a yell if you want it, I'm on the shore tomorrow.

Inner barrel, 355mm, hub to spoke, 60 mm.

Where's local?

Yes, standard High compression pistons Mike, they lost the tops when they made the B35 I think, the earlier motors are all high tops.

Don't all the young boys?

We're with telecom, 10g plan, last couple of months we've been at 90 to 100 gig. There are 6 computers operating in the house, goes real slow when cap comes on in the evenings at times, thinking of going to orcon with phone as well, should enable us to get 100 gig for what we pay now, at full speed, and have free toll calls as well.

Should look sweet, it's what we use on the race cars, only ours are 205/50/15's.

May be a 4.1 diff, but more likely to be a 4.45 if auto, and 4.27 if manual.

Put it in the 30

Mounts can be purchased from the States, and Germany that I know of, or you can use Alpina mounts, which are what Gavin's got. The aftermarket ones are around $700 to $800, depending on the dollar, and the Alpina ones are $unknown. The other option is to fabricate new mounting points, I'm looking at both at the moment.

oops

Hartge moved a small part of the bulkhead back to get the engine back another 20mm or so, just behind the head , not a lot really, but enough to make quite a difference to the balance.

Hey Ollie, thought about a 3 lt diesel turbo Toyota van. I used to tow my 6.5mt boat behind one, no problems at all. You could sleep in the back at the track, no need for a tent, and they do go well. Lots more room than a prado.

Just waiting on engine mounts, and to see if they change the rules in the open class and let Hartge variants enter. If they do, I'll go for the bulkhead change and get the engine back a bit further.

You were close tho, it is right next to the gearbox.

ooops. you're right of course, money can buy most things eh?

Not rego'd, call Ray.
