  1. It is all fun and games until someone close to you is severly hurt by bullshit cheap fireworks. And even worse when they are so young that they do not understand why they have burns all over them. Speaking from family experiance. And they were being let off by an adult. Backyard fireworks are lame! Would much rather go and watch the massive ones let off at a public display.
  2. I will be getting a cam and valve springs. This motor is dead cheap comparied to what I have recently built for my 180sx. From what I have been reading the Poms seem to be getting anywhere between 180 to 250hp. Some of the higher figures of course have extras like manifolds etc. As for the chip or tune. I am not 100% sure just yet. Will have another chat to him when I take my series car in on Monday for its tune up. But I am going to install the Facelift 325 loom and ECU.
  3. Had a talk to Gavin at Hi Velocity and will also be using the facelift loom and ECU which makes things alot easier when it comes to timing and tuning. And my list according to the guys on E30Zone M20B25 head/block/pistons/inlet manifold/injectors/ECU M52B28 crank M20B20 conrods Catcam? 273 degree cam Total seal piston rings Heavy duty grade main and big-end bearing shells New rockers and shafts Spray bar Water pump Main and big-end bolts All new locating dowels
  4. Not on E30zone no. I will read them now. I have read through various others though. Will sign up to e30zone now.
  5. Hey guys I am just about to start building my M20B28 for my worn out 325. I was going to dump a 1jzgte in there but thought I would have more fun from a BMW motor as power is not everything. Thought I would take a crap load of photos and keep a diary of the build for eveyone rather than being secretive like some others who are currently building. Plans so far are to use my current M20B25 motor which has currently got a case of the 300,000kms worn cam shaft and rockers. Other than that she was recently dynoed at 101rwkw on a very tough low reading hub dyno so I am hoping the block and head will check out AOK. Still have to work out which Cam and ECU setup I will use. Any help and suggestions are welcome. My first question is a simple one. Which main and big end bearings do I use? I presume the stock M20B25 Mains and the stock M20B20 Big ends? (M20B25 and M20B20 bearings the same??)
  6. Hell you can pick up one of those 10" Tube subs for $70. They are good enough. Built in amp too.
  7. Check out this beast on Ebay! http://rapidshare.com/files/158660762/Far....C-Unleashed.rar

    JiB's POS

    When I get my 325 going again we should get them out for some fun. Will just chuck my series cars wheels on it. Will be able to out brake me easily though. Mine has -3deg camber too.
  9. I am another East aucklander. Bucklands Beach. Will wave out if I see you. Keep an eye open for a white 4 door E30 Race car running around the area. Very noisy. Hard to miss. Been looking at an E34 or E39 as a tow car. Yours looks nice.
  10. Yeah after reading around it seems like a real hassle. I might just look at the read height adjustible platforms from ground control.
  11. I worked out mine depreciated at about 15.3 cents per km
  12. Yeah I will have a look next time I see you Jonathan. I think I will look into it more. I want to try and get my rear end much lower but with a good spring rate. The random brand springs I have now are just plain sh*t. A mate of mine is one of the custom shock builders at Racelign. So changing them around is no problem. Wish there was a cheap M3 setup sitting around.
  13. I am going to convert my suspention setup to 2.5' id springs. So that I am able to muck around with spring rates. But I am just wondering if this is possible in the rear as I have not dealt with trailing arms before. Is it possible to have a coilover setup in the rear. i.e. Coil over shock. As I know this must offset all the weight on the arms to the very far edge rather than in the middle where the stock spring sits.
  14. Hey people. I need a left front indicator including plug if possible. PFL model. The parcel tray up by the back window And the plug that the demister switch plugs into and a length of the loom for it. Would prefer someone out East or close to me anyway. So sick of driving all the way over the shore to get stuff. Cheers Dan 0211887733
  15. Bet you had your ruler on the screen. Haha
  16. I got 3.20. I stuffed up one of the circle things but I don't think it made that much differance to my score.

    Yeah plenty of C180 Bling on a Budget Mercs around. Dirt cheap too.
  18. A friend of mine recently exported his Subaru Forester STI to Sydney. It took him around 6 months to get it complied and onto Aussie roads. I do know that you must have at least owned the car under your name for a minimum of one year on New Zealand roads.
  19. 2nd time I looked at the pictures and just noticed there was an E30 in the background. Nice.
  20. Looking for a M20B25 camshaft for my 325. My one is worn. Must be perfect condition. 0211887733 or post here. Cheers Dan
  21. So you are after rear trailing arms with Disc hubs? Ray at Hell BM helped me out with those.
  22. I am into a more sporty look. I think I am just going to have to get out and about and check them out face to face. And see which ones I prefer. There does not seem to be many listed at the moment though. Will be looking at a 99 E55 AMG tomorrow. Around the same money as the facelift 540's. Higher KM's though. Father has the newer supercharged one so I thought why not.
  23. Yes this is my car. It is time to sell on. But obviously I am not in any hurry as I love this car. It is a genuine full optioned 1996 Type X. It comes as you see it in the pictures. This car is ready for the next step and would really benefit from a larger turbo. The motor is built to easily take something larger.

  24. I have a whole S14 Silvia Door you can have. I was going to throw it away in the next in-organics. It has a little dent in it. From a 97 S14. Has glass I think too.
