The certifier has to act on information given by the person needing the cert. He would not know the CC rating. He must rely on all the info given by the applicant. What Johno said about the wheels is correct. I also had to recert after changing from Auto to Manual.

Have a great day Paul From Glenn & the Team

+1 I totaly agree

I enjoyed that too Ron..... Unless your involved, alot of motorsport is quite boring these days (personal opinion)

Bosch stopped making them in 2007. I'm just checking for old stock. The dealer might be your only choice if they are still available.

The closest place to check it for you is Autotrans Ltd in Eden Terrace Ph 3092538 ask for Tim or Kevin http://www.autotrans.co.nz/

I know your new, but you only need to post once. Is your car an E39 or E60 ?? Where is it now?

Have a great day From Glenn & the Team

Ernst is a great guy... he used to work with me many years ago. Very, very good with BMW manual gearboxes

My info tells me the US Spec runs 86.5mm bore, M50 SV block and M52B28 head with the larger valves and different cams. They use the 328i Siemens system & Maf with different programing. Compression heights are the issue...maybe custom forged pistons. I priced a set of genuine US spec M3 3.2 pistons....$4,000 +Gst. Was in the process of doing all the maths and research on this...but life has got in the way ATM. I've got all mine set up on a cradle here at work to get back onto when I can These guys should be able to sort the pistons out http://www.importperformanceparts.net/impo...istons_bmw.html BTW 2mm of the deck is not wise because of timing components according to my engineer. I would also density test or Xray the block before taking it out from 84mm to 86.5mm if you considered going that far with it

You might find it is the valve stem seals Graham.. as Grant suggested. BMW's generaly dont glaze up the bores on the older engines

On most R/H drives only the L/H mirror tilts in reverse. I dont think you can recode it the other way round. On a L/H drive vehicle the R/H mirror tilts in reverse. I'm pretty sure you can't have both.

Hope everythings going well down there and you have a great day From Glenn & the Team

Hope it's all working out for you down there and you get to have a nice day From Glenn & the Team

To be on the safe side...allow 50% of what you pay for it, for servicng and maintenance over the next 5 years. You'll either spend more, or have a little change left over after 5 years. Especially if its pre 2004
