Hey man, havent been round the forums for a while,

Theres a place in lowerhutt called NZ Spring Works where I got mine done, only cost me $180 for all 4. The numbers 04 5675090 give them a call if you havent already got it sorted.

Would you sell just the front bumper?

Looks like a really good day, wish i was in Auckland haha

Love it

Yea I have to find 2 as well for an e30

Hey man what are the bumpers like? How much you want for them each? give me a pm.

You can get you springs compressed for $180, the rides deffintly not as good but you can do compress them as much as you want to level it out. Im really happy with mine.

They did a thing on mythbusters awhile back on some of these magnets and other fuel saving things, they proved they all dont work, Ill try find the eposide when I get home from school.

Hey guys, just wondering if any of you have a spare e30 "bootclip" as mine has broken, I tried to take some photos of what it is sorry about the quality and bad paint skills Any help would be appreicated.

Thanks

Oliver

This is where the clip is located on the latch.

And this is the clip.

Might pay to think about what you are going to do to correct your camber as well as that is going to be way out. There are some other posts about this topic on the board somewhere. By the way im looking for some rear mudflap mounting brackets for a pre f/l E30 - if you want to sell yours, plz pm me.

Yea, the camber doesnt look too bad though, am still thinking weather or not to keep the mud flaps, will pm you in a week or something.

Don't have catalytic converters in my cars, chew through the 98 octane, and go for rides for fun all the time. Spend $100-150 a week on petrol and love every minute of driving.

I also do oil changes every 3 months on my VR-4, already done 2 on the 850CSi (even though it's just been driven up and down the drive) and I always turn the air-con on hot days.

Guess what, I just don't care!!

+3

The results from the wheel alignment? Its pretty standard to get one after pulling half your suspension out, let alone changing the ride hieght by such a huge amount.

O yea, I havent got round to getting an alignment yet, might get one tommrrow, will post the specs when I get it.

Well done bro, hit some photos up with out them mud flaps.

Gues the back isnt captive?

how come you didnt go 90mm

Thats with no flaps, the back is pretty captive, didnt go 90mm because the guy at NZ spring works said that the rear stock e30 springs shouldnt be compressed any more then 70mm, am glad I didnt go 90mm because even with 70mm my exhaust where it goes under the diff scrapes on little bumps.

70mm is a huge drop for an e30 in the rear, can you post up the alignment specs?

just wondering why you went more at the back than the front, most people do the opposite if anything.

When I got the car the back seamed to sit higher then the front on the stock springs, also I wanted to keep issues with the sump and steering down as low as possible with this ride hight. What do you mean by alignment specs?

O yea and Ive taken off the flaps, it looks much better, found a bit of rust under one though so ill have to get onto that. Just gotta find somone to mix me up some matched hennarot paint.

so how much did you get them compressed from standard height?

They are 70mm at the back at 65 at the front.

Selling some king springs, dont know how fair the price is, heres the link Trademe

Hahaha nice man

nice just needs to come down a bit more at the front.. and loose those flaps

Yea might bring it down abit more, the guy who compressed my springs said he could put it lower for me for free if I wasnt happy with it, I really recommend NZ Spring Works in lowerhutt the guy there seems to know his stuff and he only charges $180 for all 4 springs, only takes him about an hour as well.

ditch the flaps

Yea was thinking about doin that aye, there getting pretty messy.

Just got some new springs for my E30 and thought I might stick some photos on here. Doesnt bounce at all and still handles fine.

Some of you might like it, some of you might hate it, tell me what you think but I love it.

i have a set you can have cheap but i am in auckland, if you get desperate,you know how to contact me.

Cool sweet, Ill see what else comes up and pm you if theres nothing

Hey again guys sorry about all the WTB"s, just wondering if anyone has any cheap standard springs for a e30, around wellington would be best so I could come pick up, not really bothered about condition.

Hey guys just wondering how much Id be lookin at paying for a second hand E30 sump guard? anyone have a spare one?

hook me up with the number bro!!

K sweet ill do that then, I will post some pictures afterwards, number is (04) 567 5090, Its in upperhutt or lowerhut. How much do you guys think I should compress them? With my SL rear king springs and low front kingsprings the car looks like this:

Anyone got any cheap compressed springs lying round, have been quoted 180 from NZ springworks to compress all 4 so looking for cheaper then that.
