Congrats - a great home for it.

Opps - broke the forum rules. I'm looking for $30K.

I still have mine hah

Hi Bimmersport! It's been a while since I've posted here. Those of you who know me, know I still have one car left in NZ - it's time to sell it though. I'm losing where it's being stored and there just isn't any point in keeping it in NZ, and after just imported my racecar to Aus - I know how much of a pain that is. Trademe Link here: https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/4496562823?bof=DfmoGjuv My Aussie mobile is +61 499 019 778. I'm planning on coming back W/C 29th of Jan to get any work done to the car and ideally sell it. Cheers

hah - thanks Jon. I wonder if the dealers could/would still do this work.

Hi Team Me again. My cabby has basically been in storage for 6 years since I left NZ. I've done the occasionally drive and WoF most years, but I'm keen to do the cambelt and basic service when I'm back. Potentially keen to sell it if anyone is keen on it? Only catch is - I'm not back till Dec '22. Bellars Motor Works and BM Workshop can't help me. Anyone here from back in the day able to help me out? Cheers

I remember Oli. OG

I'll have a look what integration can be done Dan. Give everything a wee tickle up. James and the team have been doing an rad job keeping everything alive. The .com has gone ages ago - I'm getting the trademark now for the com.au and will try get the .com. It's just registered to a domain squatter.

Good to catch up with you all @Olaf somewhere on this site is a pretty detailed write up on the M20. It was a reasonably involved process, lovingly done by Gavin @ Hi Velocity. @Driftit ahh yes - the many a good trip camping at racetracks and doing butterball shots. Bummer - the 318iS was cool! RIP turbo fun-ness

Hello All - It's been a while since I posted here! I realised it's been 18 years since Ollie & I started the site. (I wish I was still 17) I love the community still keeps it running - you are badasses. I'm pretty keen to get an Australian version of Bimmersport going now I live in Sydney. How many aussie members are on here? I'm joining the BMWCC NSW, any one have any contacts? Update on cars. Still have the race car, it's very well sorted now - I just don't get to use it in the series much. It's got ITBs now and chucks out 290 rwhp, not bad for an M20. Given the engine is such large displacement and was reasonably restricted, it actually gained a significant amount of torque with this mod. I'lll do my best to get back from some rounds assuming the border opens up to Australia sometime soon. For those that don't know, I have an open class E30 with a 3.2 litre M20 with just about everything done to it. It weights just under 1000kg and is pretty hilarious to drive. Usually race on slicks in A. Attached is a video of my surprise hearing it actually idle properly with it's 304 cam and new ECU. It seems to rev a lot faster than it did with the stock intake. VIDEO-2020-04-22-07-05-45_1.mp4 I've got an M2 Pure in Australia - decided to do some road trips now we can't really travel anywhere. These are fun - it reminds me of the 318iS turbo I had? Does anyone on here own my old turbo? PK8952? I've still got the M325i cabby in Auckland, it lives in storage mostly. When I moved to Sydney I went a bit rogue and got a 987 Boxster a M235i and a Kia Picanto. I was confused. Sorry. Good to talk to you all again!

Another very old member posting.. It's just incredibly sad to hear about this. I never met Atta but reading about his general rad-ness and impact on the world just amplifies what a loss this is. If you are able, please donate to the givealittle page.

oh - and even though I technically still run this site - I barely use it hah! Please ring me or text me (I'm on annual leave also, so not being very computery)

OK... I know I've put it up for sale a few times and changed my mind a few times. But I'm finally ready to do it. I don't even live in NZ anymore and my convertible needs are being done by my Porsche now. I want someone from HERE to buy it - I'll do a better price for a Bimmersport member. All details on trademe, photos are pretty representative of condition - except last time I washed it a bit of bloody clearcoat came off the bonnet. If I were to keep it (and not fully restore it) I'd just paint the front bodykit and bonnet. Free Carjam for you guys https://www.carjam.co.nz/report/?ref=6F779893 Trade me link https://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=1497339128 AND - unlike most cars registered in the 1990s - NZTA gave this an exemption for no highstop light. So it doesn't have that fugly boot (I have all the proper exemption letters for WOF time) Serviced by Gavin @ Hi Velocity My cell is +61 499 019 778 - I'm in NZ till the 29th.

Update on this - was only $250 to have the wheel repaired (it was leaking quite badly)

Legends - thanks for all the help.
