Factory m50 gasket between the head and headers, there's some improvement to be had by port matching but I didnt and it's only a daily driver so don't mind

Have M3 headers on my 325i E36, the M50B25tu to be exact. Actually crazy how much they change the engine, they're pricey but nothing good is cheap.

Have a set of e39cb - e36cb spacers that are 25mm thick. Would go well with the wheels

Pm'd

What is it? A naked S85B50?

neck and neck, voted

Was more interested in the inner workings once I got home and stupidly realized how different e36 headunits are :banghead: Meh car's stripped out now so no need for any of that fancy hifi nonsense, that doesn't make you go faster

Yeah I checked but mobile doesn't give you anything

Location? $75 pickup assuming Auckland?

$20 and you can have your old one back with the addition of a aux in

Interesting cause from what I've read about the E34 M5 that's pretty much the opposite of what happened in North America. No 535is where sold or offered because the dealerships thought they would pull sales from people who would otherwise buy a M5. Sorry to threadjack, beautiful car, would love to have a 6speed v8 one-day

I'm only installing the system luckily, wouldn't touch them with a 10ft pole, but the customer gets what the customer wants. No trouble shooting, no reset button, plug and play until it doesn't work for unknown reasons.

Hdmi over cat6. I hate technology.

M50 ones are a cast iron log, the M52 are tubular. Think they're stainless too? Not that its much difference

Edit, followed link.

Apparently you can hook the GPS into the car battery and it'll last indefinitely so there's always that.

While I like the idea I'm not sure how effective it'd be in a car? But seems like a great idea when it comes to keys and wallets imo. Have you looked into GPS locators? The boss has a bought a bunch for work tools. His ones were around $30 from memory. It takes a SIM card, you text it and it'll send back it's GPS coordinates that can either be entered into google maps or opened in App. Battery life was something like 2 weeks?

Damn it's been passed around a fair bit. Haha I threw the vin through the decoder before, was trying to hold off labeling it for what it really was as I haven't seen many iS models come up recently. 25% LSD and all the factory sport options

The shape is different, from memory the only part changed on the facelift is the nose panel and kidney grills, so unless you're attached to the prefacelift look you could always just buy the cone and go from there?

http://www.trademe.co.nz/799709068 Just interested to know if anyone's been in contact with this guy? I talked to him on the phone and there was a promise of getting emailed a recent compression test. Haven't had any replies for a week and after asking for the info again he replied saying its a real pain people keep asking for information, and he now isn't giving it out because he "doesn't think it's smart". Has anyone seen the details of the test? Care to share if you have?

What's your idea of cheap? Is there any damage that needs fixing? Are the parts on the car or are you looking for someone to install also?

BMW of days gone by would probably have a cigarette dispenser for times like that, fully automated of course.

This thing looks very nice for it's age, also the price is pretty unbelievable. Would love to know more details. BMW New Six, compared to this 2002 Touring I know which I'd rather.

HellBm I'll be in contact, what year did they ditch the sohc and go M50? Sorry Joker looking for manual only
