mint car mate

looks like a pretty typically Australian styled car to me

went to shapeshifter at a place near a mates farm on boxing day night,was in giznyland from the 27th till today, after 2 hour wait to get into the camp ground, a whole week of crunkness followed, long days in the sun, and sometimes short nights haha, but concerts at baywatch were good. new years was a whole lot of jager mixed with pulse which= very messy night at RnV and not able to remember much, but was told i had a good one all in all an amazing week with RnV been the best night of my life, but happy to be home and escape the gizzy sun.... bring on summer dayze

i got it done by the elite tint guy

mines on motorsport suspension at the moment so the rear tire is already tucked slightly inside the guard. you can see how far out the wheel sits in my display pic. when i was having my guards rolled i was told it couldn't be rolled to much because it already had a "factory roll" so all that was done was the inside lip that sits out at an angle was rolled up so it sits flush with the guard now, theres heaps of room for movement in there. if you need it rolled more make sure u remove the bead of silicon inside the guard. ill be lowering mine slightly at the back soon and dropping the front also.

i don't get whats so wrong with that offset and tire? ive got 9s on the rear of mine at et 35 with 225/40/18, rubbed a bit over big bumps or with some one in the back, but got the gaurds rolled and with a full car it is completely fine and the front is also fine

i wasnt home at the time, there was only a few cars left when i got home, but yea photos of a street full of late model bimmers would have been good!

happy birthday for the other day dude, have a good time at the BMW party yesterday?

because not everyone needs there car to be a perfectly handling road going race car, and not every one drives the roads of piha every day. why would any sane person spend thousands of dollars on suspension when they drive on the motor way etc all the time? different strokes for different fokes.

looks mint

yup that would have been me, should have waved

may have been me?

i think the term "evo" refers to the facelift M3s, which got the s50b32 3.2l engine

selling the D2s?

very person commits an offense and is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding $500 who— (e)Uses any motor vehicle which has affixed to it any registration plate or license which is not authorized by or under this Act to be affixed to that vehicle or any other item which in either case is likely to be mistaken for any authorized registration plate or license; or pasted this in the Q&A, seller has black listed me and not answered the question, and still tells people there is no law referring to plates....hmmmmmm

whats the problem? depth?

i would go with a set of alpine type R. you can pick a set up second hand for like 180ish and you will be sweet

sony is crap. save your money on the rears and spend more on the front, you sit in the front, do you go to a concert and stand with your back turned to the stage? so why would you want to listen to music from behind you? if you have a good set of fronts you wont notice that you dont have rears

don't bother upgrading the mids in the doors, just get a quality set of 6.5inch components and they will do fine. i haven't checked out what the space behind the speakers is like yet, but this is the road i will be taking soon. i have heard people can fit 6.5s in there. would also recommend sound deadening behind the speakers to get the most out of them.

no those are contours, they were 19inch black face polished lip very similar looking to the ones the car is now on

haha yea that was me on Saturday, your cruise control accelerates pretty quickly!

not going to fast down the motorway i hope install looks clean and tidy. very impressive!

if i remember correctly wasn't the original owner selling the car with 19inch black inox mags? they look almost identical to the ones you have now. looks good by the way

e46 330 rotors seem to be popular over seas, or M3 brakes?
