Anyone got any tips or companies to use? Looking at most things from engines to clusters

Im looking doing this as my radiator is on on blink do nows a good of a time as any. Any tips on what parts to order? A mate found the part number for the ledge if anyone was interested 51712259957. About $250 new...

Nice, I've been looking at getting some painting gear myself but good 2nd stuff is hard to come by

32 holes?

My favourite one is "owned for 6months" "I've always serviced it on time". One. You've done one service. What about the other 20years of the vehicles life?

Not sure what they charge up wellington way but Novus charge about $80 here to do a chip repair.

My radiator is starting to leak so I need to replace it. Currently has the radiator with the built in expansion tank but looking at something bigger and future proof, eg z3m one or the like. What's needed to fit the different expansion tank setup? Tank, top hose, shroud? Or just get an fcp euro cooling system kit? Or do I go all out and get the m3 self bleeding setup? Cheers

If people were enthusiasts, surely they would have bought one when they were 5k? Anyone would have worked out that anything with a M badge on it will go up after the rise of the e30 m3. It's all about supply and demand, they aren't making them anymore, most of them have been cut up, rusted out and beat up. And if someone is willing to pay then are they inflated? Estroil blue m3 sold for 48kish 12months ago so are they inflated?

Everyone raves about how good the e30 is blah blah and then complains when demand and prices increases. All prices on all cars are going up at the moment, some more than others but just because someone has more money and desire to own one, does that make them less on enthusiasts and someone with half the money? No

One sold for that price in days last year/earlier this year. Was immaculate and had done half the kms

Not helping but this has had a lot of work done to so most things are sorted

10k covers the mismatched seats and black one is smg. One thing I learnt having just sold and buying a new house is that buyers are liers. There are what people think its worth but they aren't the ones buying. The ones buying know how much but keep tight lipped on it.

https://www.trademe.co.nz/3353403083 Doesn't get any better than this as far as I'm concerned

Seen this a few times around town whilst on dealer plates. Nice car but 68k is a lot

I think e36 rear shocks have a m3 stamped on them. Ive got a full rear end in storage which I can check once we move to the new house

M60b44 is a m62 block with m60 heads

Bmw has the Guinness world record for the longest drift in one of these so they are certainly built for this type of abuse. Every promotional video for any M car has them drifting etc. AMG has drift mode, there's not a top gear episode where someone isn't drifting something, they are built for this type of thing. I think it was on here that someone once wrote e30s are like girlfriends. You know your not the first but it's not nice seeing someone else giving her a thrashing

Only America offered them. But this is nothing like an m5. And with 535is available for 15k odd, certainly not worth it in a car like this

Pretty reasonable pricing I feel. Looking at £2000 for some Alpinas and at $600+ for an unfurbished steering wheel, $850 for one ready to go, it's probably worth it

I'm not sure I agree.. IMO price has nothing to do with it being an enthusiasts vehicle. Where they still a enthusiasts vehicle when they were $500 and being cut up and thrashed? Or were they cars for Bogans then? I look at porsche as the ultimate enthusiasts vehicle, not that I've ever driven one but will never be able to afford one but doesn't stop it being a vehicle for enthusiasts

Currently in storage until we move into the new house. Got the wheels on now just need to sort the rust and tech2 sides

Haha it's a hard one bro, I wouldn't let the e30 go for less than 30k which gets a e60 m5, c63. Throw the e36 wagon in and I'm looking at e46 m3s etc.. the tempt is real Nothing truer... I was waiting on a facelift vert, paid 10k for one 6ish years ago which was alot at the time but now looks like a bargain
