  1. Hey sorry if these are dumb questions :blink:

    What sort of HP gains are we talking about? Do you 'lose' anything as a result (e.g. torque)?

    I read somewhere that the crank needs to have some machining done for a belt or something if going into a M20... Has the crank in your sale been altered?

    So to fit I'm thinking:

    the engine needs to come out and disassembled

    bottom end bit's swap and assume new rings?

    Head skim and new gaskets

    Maybe cambelt and tensioner

    engine back in and new fluids

    then ecu remap required?

    Sorry for all that... Been thinking for a while now a little more power would be great and $350 is a good price from what I've seen but I suspect I'd be looking at the wrong end of and additional $1k for tuning, additional parts and machining on top right?


  2. For getting rubber seals to sit flush?

    I just replaced seal E in the diagram linked to below:

    e30 coupe passenger window seal

    So after breaking a piece of the wing mirror interior plate and bending the window trim a little getting it off I get the new one in and it doesn't hug the glass like I was hoping. Also one of the clips doesn't want to hold on to it...

    Speaking of clips I left them in place on the door then pushed the new rubber down into place. Are you supposed to remove the clips from the top of the door skin maybe and attach the rubber to them using pliers to clamp them down?

    If anyone has done this successfully I'd appreciate any suggestions you might have <_<


  3. So this has been on trademe for an age - I think it was listed at $30k +...

    Now he's saying he'll accept the first 'reasonable' offer :rolleyes:

    I have two questions:

    1. What happened to the front seats

    2. and more importantly - where do I get an Alpina gearknob???


  4. e30 Thursday!

    Saw a black sedan with rusted bonnet and roof racks coming down Greville rd at lunch time. Saw a white sedan with tech 1 kit at the shops in Albany. Saw a nice black m325 back on Greville going home - license plate something like driftit. Then saw a nice standard looking sedan on East coast...

    They everywhere here on the sunny side of Auckland :P
