get a job first, then get an E30. Not the other way around mmk tis like buying scuba gear without an airtank.

Dont spend all the money in one hit Young Jack, you've got plenty of high school left and if you cant find a job then its going to be hard to keep it on the road. IMO dont buy an E30 or any BMW for that matter til you can afford to service it. Think about things like warrant, registration, brakes, suspension, rust, petrol, clutch, flywheels, basic servicing, cambelts, waterpumps, petrol, oil, tyres, fluids etc all add up and all will need to be replaced at some stage, sometimes sooner rather than later depending on the car. Its your first real car, your probably going to ding it one day, buy a cheaper E30, have fun, learn how to drive then once you're ready and think its time to upgrade then save up and do so.

I would assume it would have over revved the engine and destroyed the gearbox? but I've got no idea.

Sounds like a sensible option, Be sure to give Gavin @ Euroitalian a call, he may have a good pad option of OEM quality that he can recommend for you to try. Whats best is he is a forum sponsor so can offer you a bimmersport discount (I think 15% without check). Even without discount his price and service is very competitive. Details: Ph: (09) 444 9817 Fax: (09) 444 4755 Email: [email protected] or checkout the sponsors page here Cheers, Andy

I've tried Lucas, Silverline, Trestor and Bendix (Cheaper BNT pad) and stock BMW in my cars. If theres one thing I've learnt over the years, tyres and brakes are the last place you want to skimp on. My personal opinion below, which may differ from other peoples experience: I'm inclined not to use Silverline and Trestor again, both were fairly substandard pads which gave poor performance less than half the life of the OEM BMW pads. The Lucas pads were okay performing pads but I would still go better given the choice. Bendix and BMW OEM were the best pads of the lot, both had very good performance and life span, the Bendix ones came out slightly more expensive than OEM. My recommendation for your car would be the OEM BMW brake pads, BMW learnt a thing or two while designing these and I think they're the best pad for the job without going to a race compound but that is hardly necessary. EBC has mixed results with the race series guys which I'm not going to go into as I havent personally experienced these pads myself. I think if your going to be going for a road race pad compound, would be a good idea to look into a full front / rear pad option as you dont want to upset the bias by having stronger pads in the rear. As mentioned above, hawk make a very good pad, I have tried the Hawk Blue and HP+ compound, both very good in there own right but at a guesstimate you'd be looking at $180-220+GST for front/rear if purchased in NZ.

Not sure if Glenn specialises in Porsche, I would say failing that Continential Cars would be the place to go.
