Driftit

Whats with that Holden V6 crap they all love so much? From my experiance they are a gutless old drey of a motor which overheats at the flick of a switch, the ignition switch. Obviously cheap as chips. Offroad E30 looks like a heap of fun though. Wish NZ had some cool open desert like in those pics.

Is a new place bottom level of the new carpark building at Silvia Park Mall. Think they are quite pricey but they always have a heap of nice cars getting washed.

I feel the same way about E36's. But even in this case I would still take an E36.

Agree. What a waste of money.

Well I am not one of those guys that has my tongue stuck up Mike Barrows ass. (not saying any of you are but so many do on other forums) So I will say. Car looks yawn boring. Engine looks and sounds great. Wheels are awesome but the tyre stretch is shithouse making it look like some filthy drifter who can't afford good rubber. I know it is their style to go low. But to me that looks shoddy Otara Low. 5/10 from me. Only rating it since thats obviously what he wants. To see who loves and who hates.

If you just install a Pod filter on without any form of airbox or heat shield your car will loose power. It is pretty simple to create some heat shielding though. And make sure that the pod filter has good brackets to brace the AFM. The AFM is attached to the factory airbox. When this is removed to install the pod filter you no longer have and bracing. DO NOT let it flop around.

I would put it down to speed. I don't want something that is better off sitting in the garage to gain value. I would rather have a usable everyday E39.

Don't have two seats. And would rather get drunk on Sat night at the AGM.

Happy Birthday mate. See you this weekend!

Thats correct. Was one made for one of the BMW CEO's.

You should have seen the route Cathy the Irish TomTom lady took Ollie, Andy and myself home from Manfield. We were in our 540's towing the racecars. Roads would be wicked for the hardest Targa Rally ever.

I love arguing with the council over small tickets when I have nothing better to do. Most of the time they just let you off as they don't want to waste resources pursuing a $14 ticket. And a letter that takes 10 mins to write might save you $14. Hell you could buy some Sushi and a drink with that!

Glenn I would pick something that is cheap to update. The area your workshop is in is under heavy development with new roads every other day.

Moved to the correct section. The FOR SALE section.

Do the Corromandle loop then.

If they ever clamp your car. Use a 10mm allen key (long one) to remove it. Free Clamp. If your not one to ignore the problem and let them do and charge what they like. Check to make sure they are the owners of the land. If it is council property they can't fine you.

Beat you to it man. There is a map in my link.

Going for a drive along the coast from Howick to Kaiaua Bay is great. And usually much quieter than the roads out West or up North. And the Fish n' Chip shop in Kaiaua is one of NZ's best. Howick to Kaiaua Road Map

Unless your the next Mad Mike. Don't waste your money. All the "Drifters" i know rarely get track time these days. The most common thing they do is illegal or sliding around cones at the end of Meremere dragway. Ones pushing your luck and ones a yawn fest. Gone are the good old days where we had our own drift session at normal Puke Open days. Most of the Drift days are reserved for the big boys with their $60K+ cars. Mind you I was drifting 10 years ago. Bit older now and am much more interested in Circuit racing rather than showing off.

They can't name the tickets. There is not four of me going. I am not sure where in the world my other dopplegangers live anyway.

Carefull there. I was ticked there last year while visiting my Dad who is in the Price Water House coopers building. $14 for 30mins over my expired ticket.

Yeah you treat it like sh*t and it will look like sh*t.

Hahaha. Remember, they may not just ticket you. They may tow you. $$$$$$$$$

Wow thats awesome. I would be checking Trademe Chris. Bound to be some filthy scalpers selling closer to the time.

Added the 325 which I somehow forgot about. Is the same car that Hellpina posted further up. But I don't know what my Dad was thinking buying me that soarer as my first car. It was a 2.8ltr 6cyl Manual with LSD. Is looking a bit tired in the photo but was actually quite mint.
