He is asking for help. Knows what he has done wrong. Doesn't need a lecture from some know it all. Post cleaned up.

hahaha functional is rarely pretty. And you would need a spew/cry emoticon for when it destroys you at the lights. Its sad that not many cars can touch this box on wheels in a straight line.

At 5K it is a good buy. It use to be closer to 8K.

For any E39 really. Only part I found in the list of interest was the E30 radiator. Which is very cheap. But it is the small one which I have no interest in.

Hey I want to get some of these now that I have purchased an E30 that doesn't have any mounts for the standard sized plates. Who do I contact to get the balck plates? Only list the blue ones on the site.

Should find yourself a G55AMG. Pretty much an ML with Landcruiser toughness. Not sold new here though. They have the newer supercharged motor. http://youtu.be/ZKcCS0jDFcc

It has been for sale since the end of last year. Same with the well overpriced white manual that is on there with the plate WOGBOS.

Would not surprise me at all. But if you do sell those airbags make sure you contract yourself out of any liability for them. All it takes is one "qualified" muppet to set one off while installing them.

My Brother purchased a diesel ute. So it is the new tow car. E55AMG's are not a great tow car. 24ltrs/100km. But you are still able to drag off shitty Holdens and Fords even with the race car on the back. haha.

Haha will be selling the E39 to cover it Jon. The rest is money needed to run the series car this year.

That was pretty cheap for a 325i manual. Someone got lucky. I sold one the same as that for $4500 not long ago.

Haha yeah my old 325 went through about 3 Bimmersporters until it got to me. Now it is with Nathan. Keeping it in the family. This one will have to wait a long time for the next owner though.

Will finish today. Is only up to $2250 so far. Reserve met. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=371983503

Don't know if anyone has mentioned them. But the 05+ Ford Couriers are great. Plenty of tourqe and go. Do drive like a ute though as they are a work horse. Brother paid about $17K for his 2wd version just over a year ago. We have towed the race car with it many times and she pulls it along really well. Shelley was saying today she is getting one soon. 4WD version for around that price. I still see many of those Hilux's in shops getting that Direct Injection carbon clogging sorted out. Seen a few with Diesel bug too which is strange. They both got that from Caltex Diesel though.

Yeah didn't take long to sell it huh. Didn't take me long to decide to buy it ether. Haha.

HKS = Mobil rebranded One of the other tuner brands is Elf rebranded but I can't remember which one. If you need Elf on a Sat you can always visit ADL Autoparts where I use to work. They are open till 12 and are a major Elf agent. Carry a bit of stock including 20ltr and 200ltr drums. Easy indicator for the average joe to make sure he is getting the newest oil avalible look for the oils SJ/SL/SM rating. The current ELF range is SM. SN is on its way. Most stuff you find in your non specialised mechanics is SJ or if your lucky SL. This is not suited to anything past the late 90's. The branding and viscoscity will not change by the year rating will. Really only have to worry if you are running a high end newer car though. Many new Euros will actually tell you if the grade is not good enough now.

Not for the race series Shelley. Would be my daily so well looked after.

Oi you were meant to call me if you were going to sell. Let me know when it is back at the shop and I will come down for a good look over.

Repost.

Thats a great offer Paul. Will get under the car and check what I need soon. Whats it worth for the rack inners and outers?

Sweet as. Shame though as there is not one other decent E30 forsale at a realistic price right now. Getting sick of scrolling through the overinflated rubbish that is on Trademe right now. e.g. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-372921880.htm Cheap wheels and a ton of rust work doesn't make an average 325 worth that much. If he changes his mind hit me up.

Wish the Jammer was installed when I decided to pass a badly swaying speeding truck on the Hauraki plains. Passed at 130kph to get past as quick as possible. Got pinged by a cop for doing so. Prior to this I had been on cruise control set at 100kph all the way from Taupo. Jammed a cop on the way to Hampton just past Mercer not long ago. Would have got another bloody pointless 100 in a 100 zone fine. Towing a trailer. Another outdated law designed for unbraked rental trailers being towed behind 1986 Mitsi Sigmas. Speeding is speeding though. You want to speed you have to be prepared for the consequences. I do all my real speeding on the track. Just remember how many muppets are on the road with you. All it takes is one herpderp idiot in his cut spring cefibro to pull a dirf (Failed Drift into curb) in front of you and your screwed.

I pro do on one of my motors. Will have a look tomorrow.

I see you carry around a bottle of water. (Every E30 should ) but has the car had any heating issues? Can you get us up some pictures of the bad clear coat on the boot? How bad is the diff whine? Is there much play in the diff? Cheers Dan

The Jammer in my fathers E55 is Active all the time and 100% hidden. It will give a solid tone for around 5 seconds when it is jamming. Then switch off for a set period of time. This allows you to slow down. There is only one decent brand avalible in NZ. http://www.laserstar.co.nz/ The guy was on the forum a while back. I think he likes VW's or something. No idea why. Do not bother with the shitty Passive Jammers. They do not work. This has been proven over and over. It has to be active. This means it is always jamming. Even if it is not you being targeted.
