Hi, did you sell this engine or do you still have it?

If you're after one I can point you in the right direction.

PM me 

@HELLBM would you consider a trade in - Evo m3 - cash my way?

Hi all, 

Bought this ballast  to fix my headlight but turned out to be a bulb. Has been plugged in to test but other than that pretty much brand new. Photo from the website I got it from. I'm guessing it will fit all 1 series xenon headlights but best to check for yourself. 

BMW part number: 63117180050 

This is NOT an oem part.

Paid $170 shipped, just looking to move it on so will take anything above $130. 

Located Auckland Central but happy to ship. 

Thanks.

both headlights work now, old ballast was shot. Cheers

i've got a donor car.. e34 with a m52b28tu and getrag. have all the bits to make it work in a e36 chassis too. take the sump and sell it to make back some $ loom will swap to work with e36 body too.

9 or 10k? maybe more, wagons are hard to find, esp factory manual 328i versions

I've got one but it doesn't have cats, also it's in Hamilton

At least the guy who did it was up front about it, otherwise you can add fraud charges to that as well.

only after selling and having fomo after seeing what it got relisted for two years later. What would you do though if you wanted to get things ironed out? Is it a police matter or VTNZ? Or is the chassis essentially scrap?

Its also tag swapped.. 

now I'm not a lawyer but if i were to convert a car I'd keep my fat mouth shut about doing the deed on the sale post on a public forum. But hey it'll be a great gauge on price for every other 318 coupe when it sells

Edit; for anyone that missed it

I agree- man there is some sh*t out there gaining faux credibility and causing anything not banged up to be called 'clean'. Same can be said for E30s.

These are awesome. Despite not being marketed the same way, they actually did come into NZ in 328i form too; as ZA Motorsport individual models; identifiable by the seat stripes.

and the iron block m52b28, there's been a few sell in the last couple of years. Clearly the better contender if you wanted something more inline with a M3

After title, anyone gone stand alone and ditched the oem one?

Hi

I am looking for a cylinder head to go on e36 M3 (3.2L)

Let me know if you got one.

Cheers

what block have you got?

As title.

Also have one that can be sold if the price was right (9k minimum ball park)

@coop Any pictures of the iS? I'll be in Hamilton next weekend, might be keen on the seats if they're still available

I've got a full set of rebuilt evo spec injectors if it'll help, i'll have to have a dig and check what they are though

Why would it? My old one with 300k on the clock had no issues with engine or gearbox except needing a head gasket with the previous owner, and a vanos rebuild. One before that was over 200k also with no issues other than vanos and timing chain tensioner. They're not fragile engines like the later cars. 

310k here with no issues, vanos done around 150k but he's right, rebuilds are stupid money for oem engines

have a set of bbs rx203 17x8 et40? $700

i'm a 10 min drive from there if you can make it worth my time (and bloody knuckles knowing m52 manifold placement)
