Wow first time that story has ever checked out. Nice.

For brake fluid go and see Exedy in Wairau. They also do Elf oils. Motul 600. Don't bother with the 660. Hawk, Endless or Stock for pads. Decent semi track pads in the front and stock in the rear is a good combo. Mintex 1166 will be shot after one race weekend in my old E30. Not enough value for the $. EBC are sh*t. They fell apart in both my E30 and E34. Bushes get from overseas or get them made by Dan Slater. But his will be solid and will need replacing more often. But no movement. See Kayne Barrie for Hawk.

Ah the old car dealer Drug Runner story. Is it legit or does it fit in with the other 30 odd cars with this story? Unless there is a news article showing the car, it is one story I just nod and smile too.

Followed some idiot in a brand new 1 or 2 series convertible to the airport. They were struggling to see in the rain doing 70 on the motorway. Would help if you turned your headlights on.. Another muppet using just the rice rings.

Oh sh*t. Been looking for one for a while Dave. But the 3.46 is no good to me. Damn.

Function over form mate. You have it right.

Did you polish her Crunchy? Haha.

Hahaha wow I have never seen such old listings. What a joke.

Had a look over a genuine E21 Alpina B7 Turbo today. Is sitting in Burgers Motor Works in Wairau Valley. Awesome looking machine. He was telling me that the owner picked it up for around $10K not going. It is now going and worth much much much more than that. Wouldn't swap for my E60

Word. Get in before the hype or wait till its over. Profit/Save. Like Drifting. Got in before the hype. Got my drift nissans for bugger all. Sold them with much much drift tax once the hype started. Stuck with the dumb user name and number plate though.
-
8AM - Faro Fresh - Constellation Road. Any later than 10am and you are dreaming. I got some well before the hype started. Loved it. But won't touch it again until the hype is off.

Anyone Need Parts From UK? Container Being Brought Over
Driftit replied to M M's topic in General Discussion
Just bringing my spare car parts over -
Damn. Offset and that little 8" no good for me.
-
Yeah not so exciting from the sideline lol. Like watching rush hour in Otahuhu. But less contact and not as many drunk drivers.

What Jon said. Possible that I would be interested in some gearboxes and diffs. Any chance we can avoid GST? E.g. is this household items for a move or is the guy just importing stuff. -
Agree. Would want the originals not these fakes. I did see a black E60 M4 at Jerry Claytons on the weekend. Black dished 21" wheels. Nearly suited it.
-
Yeah that's the one.

Road bike racing. Its about as exciting as having to watch your 12 year old daughters gymnastics event. Surprisingly all the riders have the same body frame as a 12 year old girl. They have hissy fits like them too. Watch out!!! There is a slippery curb! oooohhhh he fell off and can't pick it up again...

Spotted the same broken down ACS E39 540i now driving. Has an american sports team related plate I can't remember. Lives around the Oteha Valley area. Sounds and looks good. Even though it is a strange color. Kit suites it. Also to the gumby in an E39 520i on the Southern Motorway last night who decided it was cooler looking to switch his headlights off and just have his rice rings on whilst driving at night. He initially had his proper low beams on till he caught up to me. Then switched it to rice ring mode only for show time.

Used these guys last time. Was a lot cheaper than Pelican due to shipping.
-
No V8 manuals. Just the turbo models. And it was something like 2 or 3 % of them.
-
Yeah I found them a bit gutless. Just a big cruiser. I was looking to buy a 1JZ version or an Aristo back in 1999. They were cheap as chips back then. But a factory manual didn't show up in time and we purchased some other cars. One showed up 1 week later....
-
Bump. Any ratio considered. What have you got?
-
Yeah that's right. But I don't think he is doing the brand any good. The brand itself is enough for the Swedes to sit up and watch. Get the Frenchy back in the seat or try and hook someone Timo Glock from DTM. He would fit right in. Ambrose coming back will be interesting. None of the drivers were sorry to see him go. Doubt any are keen to see him return.

It is surprising how much hate Wincup is getting. His Whining and occasional attitude issues outweigh his brilliant driving ability. That sort of behavior is fine for toss pot F1 drivers. But the Aussie V8's is very much a peoples race where Wayne drinking his Toothies or XXXX from Wallawallabungaloo wants to see someone he can relate to driving the brand he would die for. Lowndes has got that down. So when do you think they will drop Dehlgren from Volvo? He has just not gotten anywhere at all. Scott needs some team backup imo. Get Premat back in there. He drove bloody great on the weekend. Even the dreamers of Team Black were out driving the Swede. SVG needs some back up also. Redbull has proven that teamwork between the drivers can really pressure the other drivers out of positions. See it over and over. E.g. Lowndes "Sun Strike" on the weekend. More like remove the threat to the team.
