    Quick rant thread.

    https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/523154/nzta-employee-traded-motorists-private-information-to-gang-members-for-meth So I've opted my vehicles out of public data. How can I opt out of NZTA staff being able to access it? Ffs.
  2. NZ New. Option sparse. But you don't see many in good condition for sale these days.
  3. Wholly shiii. ATE ones are 23Euro each.. Awesome car. Hope you enjoy working on it.
  4. Could well be. Mentions he got it for $6K. Not bad.
  5. I see the kiwi car life guy has got another manual 130i. Can't stay away from them.

    Woh. How did you manage that?
  9. The real hero of that Video.
  10. My issue is I have hardly driven the car with the DMF. Though I did find the gear changes quite soft and a bit lazy. All my other manuals have modified clutches though so I can't really compare them something that is meant to be quite nice to drive.
  11. Yeah SMF conversion. The rear main seal is leaking pretty bad. Oil coming out between the engine and box. This gets onto the flywheel and causes it to slip badly. It should always be replaced when replacing the clutch. I forgot to get the sealant kit you need with it.
  12. Changed out the valve cover gaskets on the PFL 130i today. Simple job. Someone's done it before and reinstalled the partially stripped bolts you are meant to replace. I pulled out the CCV valve and replaced it with a baffled catch can too. The old one had been boogied up and was dropping oil everywhere. I have to say. As annoying as it is to have a built into the cover one on the FL models I much prefer it to having to pull the manifold off to get to the PFL one. Next on the list is the clutch. Which I think has been killed by a leaking rear main. Start that tomorrow.
  13. It was a comfortable fit for me at 6ft and 100kgs. You would not want to be much bigger though.
