I asked that guy if I could test the bullet proof windows before purchase, and he said I could. Sort of wish I went and did it.

I can assure you the one I bought as a parts car did. You could almost fit your fist in the rust holes in the sills.

Seats are sold.

Sorry for the late responses. We can sort something out. I have e34 ones that I want to use but the calipers are seized so I need to get new calipers. Either way send me a text message and we can talk. Sorry, not for sale. Too hard to find these days.

I sprayed the parcel shelf in my E28 black with VHT Fabric & Vinyl Die, I thought it came out good. It was faded blue before. Before After

Meet a previous owner of this car who told me that when he/his father had it, they swapped a motor for one with 120,000 kms. Judging by the way it runs I believe this.

Didn't really notice that on the short drive I did last night. But my interior is not fully back together yet so it's not a fair test. I'll report back later once I spend some time driving it.

I'd go with these: Wouldn't mind a set myself.

Not sure, realised just after I put it in that I should have weighed it. Nevermind. Anyhow, finally the car is going again. After spending a couple of hours on Sunday morning rolling around on the wet ground trying to get it done, I had it about 90% finished but couldn't get it done as the previous day a friend of mine was over and was kind enough to push the clutch pedal, dislodging the piston from the slave cylinder. I didn't realise this and spent a good 45 minutes in a lake trying to put it back in, with the rod not budging, only to realise what was going on. Luckily, my good friend Ben came to the rescue that night with a replacement one which I went to pick up. Yesterday afternoon I got back to it and got it back together. The improvement with this flywheel is drastic. I almost couldn't believe what a difference it made, but then it does make sense. The car takes off so much faster than it did before. Anybody with an M30, if you want your car to go faster, I seriously suggest you track down a single mass flywheel, no matter the cost. It's well worth it. Over the next couple of days I have a few small jobs to do on it like replace the front bumper and some small engine related stuff. I'm just glad it's going.

And that's fine by me. Edit: Looking at pictures online it looks the same as an M5 one.

Guess what?

Interesting. It's a shame really, if it wasn't deregistered I'd be saving it. I'll be in contact with you about the radio mount, that would be handy. If for some reason this flywheel falls through, I'll let you know.

Last weekend I picked up this slammin' parts car. Beneath the rough spots it is actually a decent car with minimal rust, and it has a full black interior including leather. So most of that including the carpet will be going into mine. I will be keeping my Mtech seats however. Yesterday I started fitting my M5 replica front lip. Test fit: Paint: On: I also swapped the good fender from the parts car onto mine. It's actually in better condition than the last one was before the hit and the color matches close enough for now. Nevermind the sagging bumper, I will be putting my new one on shortly too. Started cleaning up some of the black interior parts from the parts car to go into mine: I'm going to be fitting the non AC center console from the parts car, just need to make a panel to fit my radio and I'm going to incorporate a space for some gauges while I'm at it: Also this arrived today: After a very long and tiresome search, I should have a single mass flywheel in the next couple days. So with any luck, the car will be going again by next week. Then I can cruise around and show off all my nice new parts.

I did the same in both my e28 and Mk2 Golf to relocate the battery.

I've got one in Auckland.

Saw this over the weekend in the area too. Definitely caught my eye as well. Good luck with the sale.

Unfortunately it has no rear speakers Hey man, I'm keeping the tail lights however the grill and gas pedal are yours. Send me a PM and we can talk.

Too deep in now. Let's hear them.

I was thinking I would like to do this exact thing one day with an E9.

That looks very good.

Bump for another price drop. Just want this gone now.

Good work man. I think a lot of us have spent well over a cars "market worth", especially on older cars like the e28. If it's the car you want, who cares? I'd rather have my e28 over most cars worth much more. Glad it's going again for you.

While the car is not going I figured it would be a good time to replace the heater core and redo the foam flaps in the heater box. Removed the heater box yesterday. Only took about 2 hours. Not sure why so many people make this out to be such a big deal. And I've never done it before on one of these. There's nothing I hate more than messy wiring, so that's all getting tidied up too. The inside of the heater box as it came out: New foam flaps and heater core: I put it all back together and back in the car this morning. No photo as I'm sure most of you know what a complete interior looks like. I've also removed the AC part of the heater box and sealed up the AC flap. Because who needs that? Just slows you down. All the rest of the AC system has already been removed. Look at the size of the thing:
