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.

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.

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.

Hahaha thats awesome.

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.

Yeah but without the Wendy's Glenn. Doesn't work so well on the girls my age though.

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.

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.

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.

+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.

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...

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Yeah I went back and forth in my one a few times during the weekend. Taking ear plugs next time. I had to actually speed a little to make it quiet. 90-110kph is its loudest range.

24L/100 in Dads E55 AMG towing the E30 with the worlds wrost designed trailer (dead Flat front like a wall). Thats down to Taupo. But the race car has never accelerated that fast before. And it's engine was off. Was great setting cruise control and not having to worry about hills and all that.

Hey guys. I have a strange and hard to diagnose problem with my Series car. My car is a PFL 4door 320. With a PFL M20B20. Symptom: Under full throttle acceleration I can occasionally loose a ton of power intermittently. Occurs for roughly 2-5 seconds. This large loss usually occurs just after going through castrol onto the back straight going from 3rd to 4th and exiting the hair pin going from 2nd to 3rd. Once I have changed gear the car feels very flat. Is still accelerating but with my less HP. Enough of a loss that an evenly matched car will catch up to me easily. It has happened mid way down the back straight and coming over the hill. This issue seems to get worse in the later laps. But the annoying thing is that it does not always happen. This problem does not occur on the Dyno. I run a near full tank of fuel for a race. 45L+ I have changed the plugs from stock to Bosch Super 4 to NGK colder temp plugs. With no change. Have changed the coil from stock to Bosch Super 40 to stock again with no change. Will be changing the leads again soon. Now after talking to Glenn I am going to check the fuel pressure while on the track when I can. But this power loss is not a miss and the car is not running lean. In fact it is running quite rich. When this car does get fuel surge she stutters quite badly. Could it be something to do with the TPS? Would it cause a problem like this?

Not sure what car went off. Was a white one. Not many decals.

Yeah I had a heap of fun over the weekend. Vert tired now though. And that little bit more deaf than I was on Thursday. Everyone really stepped it up a notch today in the E30's. The reverse grid was great fun but such a shame they made us waste 3 laps behind the SC. When there was no need for it. Was surprised to see 7 cars enter into the 1:14's in the last points race. Time to pull the E30 ignition and fuel system apart to figure out why I loose power after coming through castrol and going around the hairpin. Suspected Fuel Pressure loss. Got worse and worse over the weekend.

Yeah was some close racing in that 2nd group. Marty had to fight for that 1st place thats for sure. The open class reverse grid was awesome at the start. If there is not enough track to get past. Just use the grass. Haha. BTW I was still not able to connect to you machine. Something your end is blocking me from the workgroup.

Oh sweet baby Jesus they are horrid!

That scary little bugger just taught me some sweet new moves. Anyone able to find a clip with some of these moves? Mowing the Lawns (including pull start) Putting on your trousers Climbing the Lader Trim the hedge The T-Rex Shopping at the supermarket etc... Ok I was searching 'Mowing the Lawn' on youtube. It came up with this. lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvFSgXpyhoM

Wll come say hi tomorrow. I am crammed in behind the weigh station next to Paul, Mark and Marty. Have a few issues to sort out with my car tomorrow. Was really happy with it Friday. Not happy with it today. Getting out there early so I can find the horses that escaped my engine bay.
