  2. The kit he's advertising is for a E30....did he give you a price for your E39 Dan ?? I'd also check with your mate... I've never seen that brand on a car here before
  3. Buy the 320 as well...or go 2.5....or a 2.7

  6. I'm using Brembo slotted discs & OEM disc pads with pleasant results. The Brembo disc rotors were only $30 dearer than OEM. Brake & Trans sell the Brembos

    Buy my Vectra

    Actually.... the clap would be cheaper to fix.... even after paying out the divorse settlment

    Buy my Vectra

    Yeah right...... like everybody needs a dose of the clap
  11. I would say that its going to be an engine out job then, with clutch, flywheel, head off & the oil leaks you've got from the engine & the gearbox....remember the list I gave you ?? Turbo & SC dont need a cam as your achieving more air by forced induction rather that relying on NA which needs a cam to gain HP I think you had better decide what you are going to do in the future before you do anything at all
  12. When you have 2 lists... one with phone numbers of freinds that you gladly help... and the other list is for people you cant be bothered with because of the crap they give to the nicer members on here I wish I only had to have one list though
  13. I'm sometimes wrong as well... hard to do this on a keyboard (diagnose peoples problems)
  14. Carefully take the L/H head light surround off and the kidney grill , you will see the lock there and the lever to release it. Its a bit awkward with the bonnet closed...just be careful

    Hillman Imps?

    Yes... new... I worked for McDonald Halligan in Panmure 1969-70.... I worked on Hillman Imps, Hillman Hunters & Chrysler Valiants
  20. Either... I might add... this freind is really fussy and looking for a real tidy, well looked after example. I wish Grant's car was for sale at the moment... ANDREW !!!! do you want to sell it yet ???
  21. I have a freind who wants to buy a 328 I manual. Preferably NZ new with low Kms... has anyone got one ??
  22. Take all the above advice... but the best advice I can give you is be very careful about the partner you choose in life. The partner you choose will, and should have a huge effect on how you come out financialy. Choose the wrong girl and you'll be ______. Choose the right partner and you'll be set for life. There's also room for thought on this one. There's an old saying...... "Cock caught in a cash register"..... (I had to say that)

    Hillman Imps?

  24. Car needs to be moving... controlled by DME which needs a speed sensor signal
