Kodachrome

Exactly this, its just no where near fast enough to warrant the noise, its just embarrassing!

Somehow I forgot to mention this here. Auction ends today: https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/4449383802?bof=Arxmrn49 Going to put more effort into fixing this X5 I have. The E32 would be cool for someone that has the means to repaint it or just doesnt care!

Wow its a nice looking example though.

LOL, the one I got could also be described as exactly this, white as well. If it went for the price of a few parts it could be a runner. No idea myself on these type of auctions though?

Alternatively anyone selling the standard 4.8l e70 muffler?

Actually my own listing: Continental TR7412UB-OR European Style Radio Orange Display Bluetooth https://www.trademe.co.nz/4452726299 The only readily available and quality modern headunit for pre-2000 era Bmws imo. $279 (it's new and this is the landed cost) but I'll do a discount for you lot!

Just picked up a 2008 4.8i X5 in need of some TLC. We (with two babies) really don't like the volume out of these aftermarket mufflers. Does sound ok at higher speed but at lower speeds, just not a fan. The previous owner described it as a "real proper V8 sound", which is true depending on your tolerance. Stock X5 V8 mufflers would be ideal, a direct swap more so.

No longer required, just bought a set of used coils as a backup for my main.

Has anyone got any bmw (bremi is oem) ignition coil pack rubber boots (or a bad or used coil I can take the boot off)? Doing the rocker cover gaskets and spark plugs and found one of the coil pack's rubber boot to be torn at the end! Coil and boot looks like this: https://www.bimmerworld.com/Engine/Ignition/Coil-Pack-12-13-9-066-468.html

Not to be jerking you around, just plans here keep changing, but to confirm, you don't have the cabling or seat position buttons for these right?

Id love to give that a shot on my 3d printer. But I dont have a set of Style 21's to mount to..

Had it in my e28, its just an open diff but that super tall ratio might be interesting for someones project. Or an economy build. 188mm, so if you swap the backplate with your original (which you will have to do, I have a z3 one that is slightly too tight just as a cover) you can fit it to anything that takes the 188mm diff. Has two new output flanges on it though again you might need to swap them around (they just pop out). Location: Wellington Price: $150

Kinda, I had planned on getting it painted. I just bought one off Murray anyhow. Should anyone have a boot or bonnet in good paint condition in Kashmir Beige (aka Cashmere Beige) however, let me know!

Well really only need a non rusty outer metal panel, I already got a price for painting one, but mine has too much rust to repair!

I've seen many YouTube videos of reapplying the top coat...?

Just picked up a 740i e32. I've a budget allocated for tuning, maintenance etc but I hadn't planned on the significant lacquer peel this has. Sections the size of a4 sheets on every panel! What is a reasonable fix, price wise, for this, either diy or paying someone (wellington area)?

This is mine, I think I'm allowed link it here. If nothing else it's a rarity you might like to window shop! 2010 Audi Q7 V12 Tdi Quattro https://www.trademe.co.nz/4355977990

Looks real nice, I might be in the market myself if my Q7 V12 sells thought I think he is a little close to e61 money for those KM.

I'm interested, just need to find time to google is the rears fit into an E28 and what would be required to re-stitch them (ie professional or DIY possible).

I can't recall if the last one was manual, but it was for sure sub $10k, i think around $4k and no one was interested. That was only 2mths ago.

Why not just call the cops about it? Or get a friendly cop to advise?

Yes you can, I wondered this too, after installing a set in my E28. Asked the WOF guys, they said it was fine. When getting engine swap certified the certifier also said it wasnt a thing they cert either. So its all good.

Thanks to Hawk188 I got an Esys version up and running, however having to set the data with a Admin level script to get ESys Premium launcher working takes my machine off the Web (as Google etc pick it up as a hacked pc). I have a yellow E-Net cable, but I cannot test if this setup is even working. This would be fine if I was doing it on my own car in my garden, but I was just trying to help out friend.. getting a bit OTT with all the hoops and BS the launcher guys put in place. @promo, what do you charge to do a radio region recode on a BMW F20 (2012 116i)?

Hi, Im a step behind you but wouldnt mind figuring those out too. However I cannot find a (free) working combo of E-Sys and any sort of launcher for it. What exactly did you use to get to this point? thanks!

Maybe one last bump here before Trade Me..
