  1. Hi guys just need the headlight loom which plugs into the head lights (some muppet hardwired the angel eyes into the beamer) before i owned it. Need both the left and right ones so i can put factory bmw ones in. only need from the plug back to about 400mm. Also if you have the foglight plugs and a bit of the loom aswell.

  2. Hi guys,

    The gfs mums e36 failed a WoF for front ball joints being dropped (no surprise here). Just wanting to get an opinion on which way is the best to go with replacing them. Stick with genuine ones or is there a suitable aftermarket one??

    I have tired to use repco ones in my e36 before but they do not fit the bmw dealers tool so they refused to fit them. Her car is a 1997 318i the dealer reckons they need the chassis number to give her a price, arnt the e36 ball joints all the same?

    Cheers Niroy


  3. Hey mate, could be shorting when it rains or the wires/ components get wet?

    I know in my e36 the Body Control Module "BCM" is playing up or something has fried in it. My windows will only work when a door is open, and my interior lights do not work as they just blow fuses. Could be a similar issue occurring to your vehicle?

  4. They may fit other beamers?

    Hi guys have a set of e36 goodridge lines, this set is the 4 piece set.

    Purchased a while ago but my car required a 6 piece set. They are brand new and still has packaging and warranty card. These lines are WoF approved and do not require a cert. You can get the extra 2 hoses made up by race brakes for around $95+ a piece. I believe that the front hoses are the same, as is the rear rear section (mounting to caliper) just does not have the rear front section.

    $150 ( just trying to recover my cost)

    Cheers

  6. Sounds like a good idea, where does it come from?

    Does that mean i have to make a mould etc?

    What about that epoxy polyurethaney stuff. Cant remember the trade name but you essentially make your own bush using it. Ive never used it but a mate has and says it cool stuff.


  7. Haha yeah i guess i could mate, I wouldnt know where to start with getting parts from over seas. Apart from Pelican parts lol

    Maybe a little tight, but could you Fed-Ex part ex Germany or USA ?

    I have got parts ex USA by DHL or FedEx or EMS in 2-3 days

    Will not be cheap though ..... :o


  8. Hi Glenn, I ordered that bush from a bmw dealer and they told me that there is none in NZ. Was wondering do you think that i could get someone to remove a bush from a 2nd hand subframe? least that way the car can be put back together untill the new bush comes. I didnt have the correct removal tool but someone who does should be able to take it out without breaking it?

    None of my suppliers can help ATM.. nothing at BMW NZ


  9. Hi guys

    Putting my e36 325i rear end back together, i ordered the front diff carrier bush from bmw last week (part # 33171134871).

    I now find out that it is ex Germany and a 2 week wait, i need the car back on the road by next Wednesday.

    What should i do? I have already removed the bush and its pretty munted.

    Any help or ideas would be great.

    Cheers Niroy

  12. Yeah ill be keen, i might have to price up what it would cost to fit. Will your centre fit the 3.15 ratio? I was told there are a few offsets depending on ratios. Hmm i could fit it maybe, but i have never done anything to do with diffs so maybe leave to experts. Any idea of what it costs to install? Do the lsd plates have to be repacked or anything?

    If you can find the ratio you want, then Mark's probably right, but if not, then the centre is a good way to go, Mine are $500 at the moment if you're interested. Any good gearbox place can do the install, if you have a good mech ability it's not that hard just to fit one. The harder thing is to do a recondition, I've done a couple of fits with no problems.


  13. Hi guys,

    Well have the diff out of my car as im doing repairs on the sub frame its a 3.15 medium case e36 diff. While its out im tempted in getting an lsd. have noticed you can buy just the lsd centre, does it cost more to have it installed then to purchase the whole lsd diff??

    I know people reckon steelie gears in Auckland are the guys to see about doing the diff, I live in Tauranga/Rotorua is there anyone around here that could install it?
