E30 touring values typically match m325 prices

$350

To be fair, he has spent no doubt some decent money on paint and panel, interior retrim to bring it up to a decent standard. Probably worth high 30s early 40s seeing as it's a converted auto but yet still a genuine mtech2. He just needs to be careful around his marketing

He's a dealer

Japanese spec came on 14s and automatic. He didn't like my comments stating there was more than one LHD mtech2 and that this was converted so he pulled the ad. E:actually think he blocked me

Did anyone catch what it sold for? Got stuck at work and missed the auction

If it was in the south island it would be in my drive already. I'd also be sleeping in it as the Mrs would kick me out but it'll be mine haha

How much slimmer is the f series shaft? Did it slide straight on? I'm about to start a m62b46 swap on my e36

Great work, any reason why you didn't go for one if the off the shelf conversion kits?

Saw a tidy Type S for mid 20s yesterday, plus T conversion and you'd be set. I miss my old rs13, had a ca18det putting out 200kw but like many cars in the early 2010s got stolen from the centee of town during the middle of day whilst I was at work 😕 swore I'd never go back but turbo noises.... Wow missed that! I've seen a couple $1 reserve cars sell for about 10% less than what they were asking if that's any indication which way the market is headed short term

Agreed, starting looking at Nissan s13s/180sx again after spending too much time on YouTube, 10k+ for some rolling bodies, 15k for one in bits. Even general consensus in that community is that prices are falling too

How can you tell the difference in pumps? I've got this sitting around, brand new if it's any use

Prob have to wait until an aftermarket one is developed. They aren't available on the m3 sedan either

Pmd

I've got a standard s50b32 midsection

Common issue on these so dealer will be very familiar. Easy enough job if you've got small hands

Headers sold

The king himself. He's getting plenty of hate on socials

Pretty sure it's the same one one discussed here https://bimmersport.co.nz/topic/66594-m5-dont-see-these-very-often/

No you don't. Disconnecting airbags when the vehicle is off will not bring up any codes so doesn't require it to be plugged in. Again, diagnosis was offered but declined by the customer, notes would have been made as such thus resolving them of any liability

Sometimes I think say stuff just for a reaction because you've proven yourself wrong here. The fault was preexisting which you've rightly pointed out therefore there is no legal or moral liability on the dealership as the customer declined. The dealership did the work they were authorized to do, and informed the customer. Also good to know that you are a master technician who is well versed in all diagnostic procedures and repair processes. I think you need to pull your head out of the sand and get back to the real world. The difference between the local Toyota and BMW dealership labour rate is about 15% so certainly not on the ultra premium as you put it.
