Have sold the 18's.. but I still have the 17's avaliable if anyone is interested.. I HAVE 2 TYRES THAT I NEED GONE FAST!! I have 2 x 17" . Only putting the offer up on Bimmersport for now but would ideally like them gone by next week sometime. From what I can tell the 17"s are: Hankook - Ventus K102 - 225/45Z R17 91W The 17" tyres were on the e36 M3 which had some camber probs so the insides are a bit worn. Not too sure if they would get a WOF as we put a brand new set of 4 on when we had the camber probs fixed. Happy for buyer to check all this out before buying if you need. Happy if you want to view before buying.. I'm looking for $5 reserve per tyre. PM me with offer or buy the 2 tyres for $20 Pics: Thanks, Laurence.

Wicked!!! Laurence.

Yep, definately felt like doing that to the computer on bad days. Edit: They should hire that guy in the S14.. pretty nice tackle he made Laurence.

Just wondering if anyone knows a company that do international vehicle shipping from USA and roughly how much it costs?? Laurence.

Hi, I HAVE 4 TYRES THAT I NEED GONE FAST!! - I need them gone as i'm moving next week and have no where to store them anymore.. I have 2 x 17" tyres & 2 x 18" tyres for sale. Only putting the offer up on Bimmersport for now but would ideally like them gone by next week sometime. From what I can tell the 17"s are: Hankook - Ventus K102 - 225/45Z R17 91W The 18"s are: Hankook Sport - Ventus K104 - 265/35Z R18 97Y The 17" tyres were on the e36 M3 which had some camber probs so the insides are a bit worn. Not too sure if they would get a WOF as we put a brand new set of 4 on when we had the camber probs fixed. Happy for buyer to check all this out before buying if you need. The 18" tyres came off the 190e Merc I sold 5months ago. 1 of the 18" has about 95% tread, the other has about 70% tread. Happy if you want to view before buying.. I'm looking for $10 reserve per tyre. PM me with offer or buy all 4 tyres for $80. EDIT: Just saw the pics.. the s**t on the 18"s is just a few cobwebs. Also, never had any probs with the tyres when they were on the cars. Pics: Thanks, Laurence.

now it looks like he's got his mate to stick up for him to make his auction look semi legit.. I agree, if he wants to sell the plates and make a profit I don't agree with this but then that is his business, but, NOT at the expense of people that do not realise they are buying an illegal plate. Laurence.

Looking awesome!! My car is going into NZEFI in January when they get back from holiday.. i've heard they know their stuff Wheres the videos at We wana see some smoking tyres, lol. Laurence.

would have to question him saying they are 100% legal. $70 a pair is a pretty tidy sum to make for placing an order, but i guess if you can get away with it then why not. (I'll still buy direct from germanplates though) Laurence.

Nice work Ollie!!! Looks so clean & damn that engine bay is sexy!! Gota get the CF airbox now.. you know you want to :)Got some pics up of the seats, hope it helps you out mate! Let me know how you get on with everything. How do you like the hi-rev s14 engine?? :D Laurence.

So i finally got time to take pictures of the seats after they turned up from Germany, the build quality is A+ pretty happy with them, can't wait to get everything into the car in the next month or so.. More pics to come once the M3 is up in Welly Front seat Close-up of the ///M stripes - (hope this helps you out Ollie) Stitching - (nice and clean) Back of the seat Underneath springs Cheers, Laurence

LOL, my bad.. I found the camera but someone had scrweed the rechargable batteries.. hmm... Have some new ones charging up tonight.. Pics will DEFINATELY be on here tomorrow Cheers, Laurence.

My seats arrived today, package in boxes.. looking G.O.O.D!!! Packaging was done really well, craftmanship is pretty damn nice too !!!!! Will have some pictures up in the next few days, forgot to bring the digi camera in to work this morning. :) :D Laurence.

UPDATE: Just had an update by NZPost.. the seats have arrived into NZ (Auckland international) this morning and are going through sorting to come to Wellington. Lol, why did it have to happen on a Friday.. haha now I'll have to wait until Monday for them to be delivered to me. I can expect the seats to be delivered Monday afternoon/Tuesday morning.. I'll get some pics up once they arrive. It's like Christmas coming early!! Can't wait to see what they look like in the flesh. LOL, at least my new work seat will be comfortable for a few days (until I take them home anyways haha). Laurence.

Looks nice!! I take it he has a 2.3L engine in it, not the 2.5L evo engine. Did you get a chance to have a look at the engine bay? Do you know if he added a few things to the engine or did he keen the engine pretty stock? FWIW: what sort of requirements do you have to meet to enter an 'Open Class' race?? Laurence.

I'll definately be selling the seats.. As soon as my car arrives in Wellington i'll have the seats pulled out.. PM me your details and we can go from there. Cheers, Laurence.

Front seats will probably be up for sale as soon as I get the new ones installed. I think the rear seats I'm buying are just the fabric so i might need to use the original seat to stretch the new leather over. (not too sure on that until I actually see the rear seats). Cheers, Laurence.

Called NZPost today with my traking numbers & i can expect the seats to arrive in New Zealand by the end of the week :D . BTW if anyone else wants a similar set of RECARO seats done the company who did mine have 2 sets left at a pretty good price. You can have just the front seats, or, front & matching rear seats. PM me if you're keen and i can pass details on. If you're worried about quality then just click on the pics on the first post Their craftmanship is A+. Cheers, Laurence.

This thing is awesome!!! Laurence.

bump, i have some pictures up now

If only these were 16's or 17's I'd buy them in a second!! GL with the auction, these will go fast. BBS RS are damn sexy!! Laurence.

Haha, good spotting!! Yes it's alcantara not suede.. Was a long day at the office last week. Rear seat cover was around $1500 NZD but it's a bit hard to estimate as I did the whole lot as a package.. Laurence.

Hi All, My 1992 Nissan Pathfinder 3.0L V6 is now up for sale. It's a regretfull sale as the 4x4 has performed asesome for me on and off road every time i turn the key!!. Unfortunately with me due to get my BMW back on the road at the end of November I will no longer have any room for the 4x4. I had had a full service done at the end of September inc. replacing anything I thought needed to be done (cost was over $1700) + added heaps of extra's to the car (31" mud tyres, 4 x spot lights etc). As is always the way I have spent $$$ on getting the car running sweet and now regretably need to sell it. I have a lot of paperwork on the car including most of the aftermarket purchases + the full service docs etc & will edit the post later on tonight (if I get a chance) as I know there were other things I had replaced when I had the car serviced. The car will come with: Extras: Snatch rope w/shackle + spade Manual winch w/cable 4 x 31" mud tyres w/15" rims (rims $1000 + tyres $1200) 4 x 100w spot lights mounted opn custom brackets + cabin stitches ($550 for the set of 4 spotlights) 4 Star alarm + remote central locking CD player Also has New f/r door bracket reaplced New manifold bolts + gasket on r/h side manifold Replaced all 6 spark plugs New Oil filter New Petrol filter New cam belt Full coolant flush + coolant and all fluids replaced end of Sept 07' Please note that I am selling the car with 2 sets of wheels. 5 x road tyres + rims & 4 x 31" mud tyres + rims. Heaps of tread left on the mud tyres with only have a few thoudansd km's on them & grip awesome in the mud!! Im looking for $4600 including the spot lights or $4100 without spot lights. Am Neg. on price thou as will need to sell by the end of December. Heres a few pics, sorry for the poor phot quality. I've cleaned the 4x4 extensively after every off road trip i've taken it on. Is great to have a tidy road car that can keep up with the best of them off-road too. red_rocks_17.bmp red_rocks_13.bmp red_rocks_21.bmp 4x4_truck.bmp PM me if keen or reply to the thread. Cheers, Laurence. red_rocks_13.bmp
