  1. Google RHD Engineering to find m44 ITB kit, from memory shipped came to NZ$2700<>. We had a Link Management System ($2000<>) wired in; bought a complete ITB Kit from RHD and had a local tuning shop instal and tune it in ($3300 incl ITB kit & labour<>). I have another 'like project' except it's an older '02 with an S42/m42 installed with ITB's.
  2. Have updated details on the added ITBs and the hydraulic handbrake additions. With the ITB's has a very 'linear acceleration' and on the tight hill-climb bends should have valuable time gains. As a 'universal' motorsport car drifting as another string to its bow.
  3. Spec and performance has been improved upon since the original listing. Will take some pics of the hydraulic hand-brake addition too and put on here too
  4. Na, are you sure Honda didn't nick them off the Ford Focus? Also, to really make your day better, I have to advise you an RS badge really means Real Slow.
  5. It started life as an 323i engine e30 road car then caged by original 'race car conversion' owner. It blew it's engine in it's second local meeting. This 'disalusioned' owner sold it as a roller to a prospective race driver, who intended putting an m50 engine in but found the process and cost too daunting. I took it on, as I had an m44 to put in and could use it as an interim race-car while completing an 's42' '02 build. Never considered it for use in 'the series.' IMO and by my reckoning is too expensive for my resources , I can do more local events and for about 1/2 the budget for a series car. With Delorto's, road pads and tyres managed a low 1.27 Manfield PB, with an RS (Real Slow) driver. With your talent Dan, and with your tweaking, I believe sub 1.24 Manfeild laps could/would/should be attainable? Can take on board though what you say.
  6. Just putting pics up of the 'before' with EFI and the 'after' current setup of ITB's fitted & controlled by a Link management system. Initial testing has yielded a good 15% power gain.
  7. BMW made, with 15 spokes x4 rims 7in x16 H2 IS46 #1094638 In good nick $600
  8. To clarify further then : the Rego papers have it in black and white: BMW; 2002; Compact; cc rating - 1796; engine no. A395G723. The vehicle was registered in Rotorua 16/12/2002. No badges are on the hatch with 316Ti or 318Ti either. My wife has an BMW 2002 e46 with a 316Ti badge but the motor is a 1998cc, her car was an import from Japan. I believe the badging of 316ti (1796cc) and 318ti (1998cc) and use of compact were used for different regions in the world, this came new into NZ.
  9. Yeah. VIN is WBAAT52060FU55211. My understanding: was brought and bought in NZ in December 2002 NZ . When I bought it, plan was to put a 330 in, this has an A1 body and runs beautifully and e46set-up handles impeccably. Deserves to go to a good keeper. Txts are most welcome.
  10. Sold off 2002 roller so still to sell 2002 318ti going well still too. Need some car space.
  11. Just trying again if the BS market-place has a lone buyer looking for a very good example to indulge with.

    E30 M40 Sump

    I have an e30M44 race car ready to go. Probably the price would be under what you are about to spend too on your conversion. It was a between car for me, took a low km'd m44 engine (96k ) that had been transplanted from my '02. Project car has taken longer than expected and tripled the original budget! Txt 0204200254
  13. l think l can live without them, but original RS are a different story for my book anyway.
  14. I sold my last pair with a set of brackets, nordic washers and new HT Bolts. BUT l have my spare set for my race car, which I am in the process of readying for sale, could sell those. So yes the centres were machined for the e30 hub. I bought these rotors, as I heard they were stopping the supply. I think they may be the last ones sold in NZ. I have a spare set of new HT bolts & nordic washers too, which would be an extra $40. Bought from Steelmasters $10 ea, forgotten what washers were! Yeah if you haven't used nordic washers before they are rated excellent and save using loctite, so quick brake pad changes can be made. I live between Marton & Feilding but come into Palm nth often. Txt 0204200254
  15. Sorry, forgot to respond to your question: I had an engineer clean and fit new seals etc seeing I was selling them on. I did mine but I'm not accredited mechanically to do others. Rather be safe than sorry.
  16. Thanks for the like minded accolade to the e30/RX7 combination Jon. Just sold this set, buyer must have read your postive comment. Thank you, I can say it was unsolicited too I have had and put them on x3 e30's now. Can't find the uTube clip showing the braking improvement. There are lots of expensive kit out there that don't perform any better than these I reckon. I know we science to prove the point. On my track e30 gained another 70 metres later braking with help of race pads and new rubber and ><2 sec lap times, no science used, straight to the jugular. Found using nordic washers instead of loctite great for quick pad changing too. Also trying with stainless pins in preference to plain steel, haven't managed yet to find a stockist of smaller size nordic to use nut too yet.Not sure how nyloc lasts on race heat pads. I now only have x1 bracket and rotor pair left. Started with putting the three kits & seven pairs together.
  17. Was keeping this set for an e30 build but need the doors for my race car, so parting roller now. Prospective buyer has reneged too,in paying any money over and now some interest from another selling site has prompted this post: *2x RX7 re-built Calipers *2x New Machined Rotors *2X Adaptor Brackets *2x Brake Hose adaptors (Have new bolts & nordic washers available for extra) $600 from on here Txt: 0204200254
  18. A pair of new e30/RX7 rotors $160 for Bimmesporters Does not come with caliper or roto shown, what you get is just the two boxes with wrapped rotors, after they were machined. Last pair. Also I was told by Repco these were the last ones they had to sell in NZ ,discontinued by their supplier sales person said. Txt 0204200254
  19. Been searching and pondering and tentative conclusion is that the 'code' 20 6s 2 is the best clue to suggest that the engine is from a 1993 e36 M50B20TU Right or wrong?
  20. 1.Have an M50 engine, on the block l can read 31250976 and underneath these nos.20 6S 2. What cc engine wouldthis be? The sump is at the rear of the block suggesting it came out of an e36,I believe. 2. Hoping it is an M50B2.5TU and whether it would match up to a e46 manual gearbox and which wiring loom and ECU would best be used?
  21. Wanting an M5B25TU wiring loom and ECU ? For e46 318Ti manual M50 engine conversion cheers
  22. As new, bought them to fit a Sabelt Race seat but seller reneged at last minute so have sat idle years. Bought an Autsport seat complete with the frame. Length bases 1st hole to last slot 28-30cm From base to top hole slot 14cm $80
  23. A pair of Bilstein Sport front struts came off 1997 e36 316 with 176k use. 6154009H000 & 61740010H000 They have no oil leaks and had a good reboun before being removed. Was on my wife's vehicle, rescued them off the car before it was scrapped after the second engine overheated. Don't know what price these fetch these days but recently bought a new set of H&R for our e30 $1200. $400
