  1. 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?

    E34 535i

    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
  3. 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?
  4. 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?
  5. 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?
  6. BMW of days gone by would probably have a cigarette dispenser for times like that, fully automated of course.
  7. 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.

    E34

    I'm after an E34, Sedan or Touring. Must be manual, ks don't matter. Cheers
  10. Damn if you were two days earlier there was one on Turners in Dunedin, 7.2k buy now, manual e46 325i 98000kms. Other than some stone chips it was in amazing condition.

    WTB e36 coupe.

    4.2 is pretty cheap, would go with a 6 over 4 cylinder any day.

    E34 TURBO

    Brain fart still interested in what's being used to run it

    E34 TURBO

    Still trying to get my head around the torque, that's insane, I assume I'll be able to find more info in other threads on the engine management/ turbo it's running? So much respect!
  15. Bought a set in that size off eBay, aluminium too. Was an Australian company and cost me $30 or so including shipping.
  16. What condition is the car in, wof reg etc? I can get a hold of a set of BBS in that pattern. Pm me

    Quick rant thread.

    People not using the t2 lane and making me wait even longer.

    Quick rant thread.

    How petrol pumps slow their filling cycle even on non prepay. When people tell you not to use your cell on the forecourt. People who ride their clutch at the lights.
  19. Flying along Scenic Drive out to Piha on a Thursday night and not seeing anyone on the road.
  20. Currently running a 225-45 on a 17x9 ET24 out back, I know all about rubbing under load
  21. What are peoples thoughts on price for a set of these? 17x8.5 ET13 x4 Not much curbing, pretty good condition. Not sure if they suit the E36? (not a huge fan of "stance" but I do like wider wheels)
  22. I've a getrag (sorry unsure on model) bolted to mine and it's taken a beating, track it from time to time and no problems. I guess (don't know for sure) that if you tried to push high hp/torque it'd be more of a concern. The driveshaft is different between ZF and Getrag boxes. Apparently the 220 refers to being capable of "transfering 220 N·m nominal torque on the input shaft".
  23. Pm'd. Dibs on Brake Booster and Master Cylinder. Edit; won't work with my application/ what I already have would work better.
  24. I took some spacers to Arrow wheels last week and they machined the CB out. Weren't pricy
