  1. I don't it once.......once......it broke in 2 and 1 bit got me right on the cock.......it dropped me and I had to finger check to see if the old boy was still there.

    hahaha man that made me laugh. Looking forward to seeing where this build goes

    Ya have seen a lot of cars sitting lower than mine, as it sits at the moment is exactly where I want it I'm happier with the height with the new rear setup. The car is mainly going to be used for track days and a few hill climbs. Handles great on the track as it sits currently so will keep the setup I have for a while


  3. So after a while with the engine running, i noticed that it was getting very hot in the engine bay and the air filter was getting all that hot air so decided to make up an air box

    Also fitted the side skirts after painting them and the front lip still not sure if theyll stay. The rest of the car will be painted the same colour over winter

  4. I was driving through Napier on Friday and there was an Alpine White, prefacelift coupe parked up with forsale signs. No kit or anything, if I was guessing probably a 318 auto, but it looked tidy (I did not stop and look) I think they were asking $900?

    Maybe someone in Napier knows the car?

    where abouts in Napier did you see it? Happy to go take a look

  5. As above steering rack from a 97' Z3 1.9L 2.7 turns lock to lock in great condition good upgrade to E30 or E36 easy to do swap and transforms the steering feel of the car.

    Bought for my E30 but have decided to go another way with the car so no longer needed. Just want what i paid for it so $460 owns it 021 332145 if anyone is interested. Can ship nation wide if needed.

  6. Ya ive read the documentation online, it'd all depend on how bad of a day your wof inspector was having i wouldn't be failing it if it was all BMW manufactured bits used. Our local LVV cert guy says differently, but i think he just wants more work.

    The m50 and m40 angle is the same its the m20 that leans at a different angle.

  7. He would be after the one and only one worth getting. Z3 1.9ltr 2.7 turn lock to lock.

    Only way to drive an e30 :D

    Unfortunately, its one of those get in line type of things. I was very lucky with mine... kind of got it before people knew what they were or the race series existed.

    Ya that's the one, don't like the bus steering it currently has haha. Last one I saw sold for $550 before I could get to it
