  1. Someone needs to build one for the open class
  2. Don't worry everyone. I am sure her party will find another muppet to fill her place. They always do.

    Recommend an isp

    Can't beat Telecoms Go-Large plans. Unlimited bandwidth. I can go through 20GB in 2 days with a family of four who are all heavy users and downloaders.
  4. Try Gavin and Euro-Italian. He is a forum Sponsor. I get most of my BMW parts through him.
  5. Left hand always rests on the Handbrake. Is just habit from my earlier years of driving 180sx's. Always lean slightly to the center of the car due to driving a car with broken seat on that angle for many years. Talk to myself constantly when driving the race car to and from the racetrack. To keep myself sane from the constant noise.
  6. Spose it is no different to the Journalist who took the new M3 for a test not long ago. Didn't he hit a tree too?

    stupid ticket

    Sister got let off a similar fine in Auckland a few months back. Just sent a copy of the receipt and ticket into them and they responded a few days later.

    The V10 E30

    Haha watch the rev counter in that last clip.
  9. Happens so often. Lazy people just jump on Tardme expecting to always get the best deal from the one stop shop. Seen many BMW parts on TM that are purchased straight from EBay and relisted at 1.5x - 2x the price.
  10. Yip I suggest you take it to Glenn. He really puts the effort and time into sorting problems. Not just guessing and replacing parts that could be the problem.
  11. Pretty cool but not as good as that Scale Ferarri race car. V12 too. Been posted before I think. But is still a wow. 20,000 hours.
  12. Been well known for many years. If you are using it just for testing purposes or another legitimate reason than thats all good. But if you are using it so you don't have to get a WOF on a car that prob can't get a WOF. Then I hope you get caught and done for fraud.
  13. It is also the same with Silvias. You have to map the ecu or get an aftermarket one to run an R32 or Z32 AFM on a SR20.
  14. Yeah but without the Wendy's Glenn. Doesn't work so well on the girls my age though.
  15. Acid dipping at Machine Part Welding in Penrose, Auckland is $25 per wheel. It is a much better way to go. Go to some engineering places around the tron. If they don't do it they will direct you to someone that can.
  16. Hey guys. I found a few places that have some good info on how to go about refurbishing your Motronic AFM's. Since they are made by Bosch in the older BMW's they are found in a few other German cars. One being the Porsche 924/944 http://the944.com/afm.htm And here is a vid of how to go about sorting out your AFM on youtube If you car has done high KM's it is prob best to have a look at the AFM to see if it has worn contact tracks.
  17. Maybe you females should take notice of what I said. Don't do sh*t for your man. Expect nothing more than some leg opener and Wendy's. Or if your out of Auckland then you only get McD's. Kiwi chicks are unbelievably bad when it comes to the give and take issue. Euro cars, Euro Chicks. You can't get any better.
  18. +1 Also why the sh*t are you doing all the work. It aint just her show. Get her a bottle of $6 leg opener and take her to Wendy's.
  19. Hold out for GT5 or Forza 3. Shift is utter sh*t!! All the reviews are giving it alot more than it deserves. The cars jump around like they all have 600hp and driving on Wanglee street tyres. The physics engine is a joke. The drifting is just total sh*t. Guy at my local game shop said he has had more than 10 people return it and swap for something else already. Lucky I did not buy it. After the last 4 NFS titles I was very skeptical about this big change they were making. It gets a 4/10 from me. It does however have a few BMW's. 135i E36 M3 E46 M3 E92 M3 And they all get raped by sh*t heaps like the Golf GTI. sigh...

    Find me a car

    Get her an E36 318ti M-Sport. We picked up a very tidy one for $6K. Sporty chicks car with Economy. Those Fords are FUGLY. Why does she want a manual? I am so over changing gears.
  21. Just to let you know. I have the new Hella front and rears on my 540. They are great. Were on the car when I purchased them though.
  22. Best to ask one of our resident BMW wreckers. If they see the post they might be able to help you. But you will have to get a little more info. As there is many variations. Some much more valuable than others. Pictures is the best way.
  23. My sisters old car is up for sale. Would make a good first car or a great econo runaround. Flew through a WOF an hour ago. Pics are sh*t. It is actually a nice shade of red. Has full black leather interior. Is an auction so you could get it cheap. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.as...amp;permanent=0
  24. Cheers for the tips guys. I think I will set the car up with a seperate fuel switch and new pump. And then try a few different AFM's. Hard to find a good 24 year old AFM. Then get her back on the Dyno and test it at a Puke open day.
