Mr Vapour replied to LemonHunter's topic in TradeMe discussions
I would expect a marsh head to be a tony marsh ported head, if it is that will be worth a small fortune. -
im interested the speedo drives off the diff correct? can you compare your e28 speedo to the e34 speedo and let me know if they are the same size? i will need to convert my speedo from mechanical to electronic and thius may be a easy option.

Cheapest I have found to fix minor curbing was 35 per wheel. Stripping can be a prick. And as your budget is low I recommend just prep the finish that is already on the wheel. Most newer wheel finishes are super tough and require acid dipping to strip them and be cost effective. I can blast newer wheels and key the painted surface ready for re paint for about $80-$100 but a full strip can take several hours. At $80 an hour it quickly adds up.

i have a brake booster off a e21 that i will swap you for the trailing arms off your e34.

i have a dedicated oil container with a good tap. Its one of the white 20ltr containers you see chemical and often drinking water in. It was a chlorine drum from work. i simply just poor the new oil in to that, no leaks. then i use the empty drum the oil came in for the waste oil. easy peesy poos and weesy

And I know of some one else that's after one so Will let him know.

I'm thinking of going custom. The e21 is low with the coilovers and I need ground clearance. Got to cut up the e34 sump any way so why not go the whole hog.

Manfred at austrian autos in New market -
Can you also reset auto to manual

Ahh welcome. I was bidding on your e21 when you pulled the auction. Nice little 2002.

have seen many of these on different forums. To make this more inclusive it would have been better to of simply said "Your BMW out side a museum" then every one can play the game. historic photos are also cheating.

Have you got any photos of it out of the shed? Did you paint the bumper white? With the extra length, white bumper and cut outs it has a very motorsportesk feel to the front end. I have a set of cobra springs that are not needed as I'm going coilover. How long did it take u? Who did you have helping?

Well done it looks good. Where did you find the front and skirts. What spares are you after. I have a few 323 suspension and brake parts I don't need.

So what's wrong with it. Why's it being wrecked?
-
as has already been said they are few and far between. There are still a few good ones around. but most will need work. I would be wanting to see the carpets removed and the floors exposed, look under the car at the jack points and the back seat removed to look at the inner wheel wells. Also looking as close as can under the rear side windows and boot lip. If it has been looked after for 25 years and used as described it could be a survivor. but yes doors replaced. The mechanical fuel injection when running is great. when its not it is a absloute dog to sort out. its often quicker easyer and cheaper in the long run to convert to EFI. If you are after a clean rust free body and this proves to be that its worth 5k+

So more likely bushes or bearings. Pull it out or run.It till it melts

hittling with a hammer will not fix noises. The knock helps to free the brushes to enable them to make contact with the com. IF you have to hit it chances are you need to repair it.

Still cheaper than renting a trailer and.do it your self. Buy the time they pay tax, fuel, gst wages, wear and tear on the truck they probably made 20$.what did you expect.
