Didn't really want to start a new thread. Just took a few wee pictures, Labour weekend is the biz, bizzy biz biz. Went to the D1NZ, not a massive fan, but anything with a cage going fast and loud is two thumbs up: Red Bull vs V. battle of the energy drinks for 4th. V won, yus. And Sam doing a standstill in a STI hahaha Oh and my car blew a coil pack. And Exams are on for the next two weeks. So nothing much happening with cars :(

Car is delivered. Sadly it's condition was not as described, bit of damage on the bonnet and a rusty rear door.. What a cock. Avoid any tradings with a K. Goldstone

Finally finished loading and watching these (damn flatmates and their addiction to torrenting) What an experience!

By the time this guy was free from work last night my friends brother was in bed. Saturday delivery now.. Not my decision haha, I'd be up there

Oh you know him? Send him a slap from us *Oh you PMed me Thanks

Yeah today was the penultimate day for delivery. But chances are it will be the same story again. Police will be coming round the mountain when they come. Just hoping someone on here knows of him and can either explain or slap him around the back of the head

The G can be 'Giant' then

Car is officially under my friends name. Was supposed to be in his brothers possession a good few weeks ago. Keeps making excuses. I guess the only receipt is the bank transfer for the few thou it cost. Hahaha classic. G C as they say. *Oh it's a 1989 325 auto, has those rims on you can see.

Yes didn't mention, it has been paid for. My friends brother is trying to sort it out up there, it's kinda like being in the middle down here. Next step, if it doesn't happen tonight (as promised), will be a visit on the doorstep.

My good friend bought a E30 about a month ago on trademe from Auckland. The sellers names is Kale G. I won't put the full name, yet. He has backed out on delivering the car 3 times now to my friends brother in Auckland, and rarely responds to correspondence. Here is a picture of the car, just wondering if anyone knows this guy. He has mentioned being a member on here. Just had a phone call from him now backing out of another delivery that was supposed to happen at 7pm tonight, after a previous 2 weeks of not even being on the map. Just if anyone knows him, could they kick his ass into gear. So there are some pretty cheaps flights to Auckland.....

^ Naturally.

Oh but it is a nice as E46, coupes are just all dat, good work.

Quick test: run outside, put a pancake on your sunroof. Jump in, look up, look down, look up again, and if you feel like having a tasty breakfast treat then you have a glass sunroof. If you feel like eating some headliner then you have a metal sunnyroof.

Just thinking about that video more.. It really shows why Ruapuna gets boring after 10 track days in a slow car. Stuck behind cars for the entire lap through the twisties with really no where to pass (outbraking someone on a track day is a no no), then you can't catch them on the straight!!!! ARGH so many frustrating memories. Hopefully not too many more now..

Those were incredibly cool, thanks.

Oh man that whine is awesome! And your car sure did blow the door handles off those 2 cars at the end

The thrill of a moonroof cannot be had if it is riveted to the roof

(I'm in intermediate year, 1st year effectively...eeek) Thinking about it practically, if you have a 20mm bar and add 5mm of metal to it, thats a sh*t load of metal being added, and stiffness would increase massively. I can school people on Engineering Statics and Materials?! oh and how to write technical reports. yay

The whiteline feels like its twice the weight ha. It's still a solid bar. Around 144% (20 to 25) stiffer according to this chart: http://www.whiteline.com.au/docs/bulletins/010barup.pdf (if the design and materials are the same old vs new, which they are not, so just an estimate in this case) Anyway, SOLD. Going to a good home.

Just from postage experience I'd say postage to anywhere in the north island would be north of $30. And at this stage the price is 240, its like that middle ground price which is a good deal for the seller and for the buyer

19mm. Picking both up.. the weight difference is incredible.

I have just taken this off my car after using it for about a year I believe. (Went back to the stock front sway bar because this one became too much for the lighter engine I have now and the upped spring rates) On an E30 with spring rates near to stock, lowered or not, this will make a dramatic difference to turn-in and inside rear wheel grip. How-to install is here: http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....mp;#entry287423 You will indeed need to get some longer 13mm bolts to secure the bushing brackets, otherwise it'll be in there too tight and the bar won't move with the short bolts which are there. Use your stock end links. And grease it up real nice. Bushings have no rips or tears. Retail for about 400 here. On the Whiteline site for 340NZD plus shipping from Australia. Yours, here today, for 240.

4 fluro bulbs affixed to the stock locations on the workshop roof. Would love a big set of lights with reflecty boards and light bouncers.

That, was a great day.
