Surely the i3 with the rex is now the one to have, it can be used as a pure EV and you dont have to pay RUC's as its technically a hybrid petrol vehicle

Probably lucky to get $30k in this market

At 350,000km the S54 one would be the worst of ther bunch imo

Manawatu BMW gave me a printout of all of the service history of my 135i before I sold it. It included all of the servicing and recalls carried out in Japan too.

Cleaning out the shed, I'm unlikely to own another E30 and I've recently sold my 135i so all of these parts have to go. Listing here before I have to deal with Facebook morons. All parts are brand new. Offset strut mounts for E30 $300 Turner motorsport Fixed camber plates. $150 E30 Gearbox linkage parts $80 Facelift M20 water pump, no picture $50 135i E82 intercooler, I think they fit a 335i too. Slight damage as pictured $250 N54 Charge pipe $60 N54 Catless downpipes $250

I think the market for an M Coupe is quite small, they're a a quirky car and also this one is modified, an S50 model and LHD which doesn't help. The E46 M3 appeals to a much larger market.

Has the price been dropped? I gave him a call to ask if he would swap for my E46 M3 but he said he wasn't interested, didnt even ask what I was offering to swap.

Ive had my 135i for about a year. After around 6 months the key fob buttons to lock/unlock the car stopped working. I finally go around to replacing the battery in the fob and all was well for about four weeks and now it is flat again. I do not have comfort access and the central locking system works as it should using the button on the dash. I have searched the internet but cant find anything with the same symptoms. Its an incredibly annoying problem. My next step is to change the fob receptacle. Any other suggestions? Cheers, Chris

The plates are about $250 landed. That's through Turner Motorsport.

I've just purchased an E82 and have been looking into this aswell. You can buy Dinan fixed camber plates that give about 0.7 of a degree extra camber and keep the original BMW top mount. When the alignment pin is removed this should get close to the magical two degrees.

Im after an E46 M3. Not fussed if its SMG or Manual. I was interested in the Imola Red one advertised last year but didnt have the funds at the time. Anything Considered. Cheers, Chris

Too late sorry, car sold about a month ago.

Do the holes in the crank for the flywheel bolts go all the way through? If so I would have thought that any metal particles you cleaned off the threads with the tap just ended up inside your engine...

They could be for sale separately at the right price...

I'm selling my E30 as I need something larger to tow my race car, I have had it for nearly 3 years and have done a manual conversion, Head rebuild and lowered it and put the wheels on it. I have spent far more than the asking price on it. Its done a fair few kilometers but it was serviced at the dealers for almost its whole life before I got it, Since then i have done oil changes every 10,000Km. Surely someone must want a tidy E30! http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-946753301.htm Cheers, Chris

I've used a place opposite the warehouse in palmy to do mine before. Or Rosscoes in Feilding.

Im after a pair of front electric window motors. They must be off a prefacelift as the facelift ones are different. Cheers, Chris

Its taken a while and I have been hopeless at keeping this updated but here are some pictures as it sits now. it has been a massive 3D jigsaw puzzle that didn't have all the pieces. We have had the engine running over the holidays and I was getting the gearbox working. It has the most retarded over complicated linkage in the world! Fortunately there are still a lot of places in the states that sell most of the parts for these. The only issues we have had are finding RHD specific parts such as gear linkages. All of the patch panels were purchased from the UK which were great. The colour might not be everyone's cup of tea but its an original BMW colour. The door and dashboard are only fitted as a mock up to see how the whole thing goes together. The dog is in there for a size comparison, and its a very small dog! There isn't too much left to do but as with all projects little things creep up out of no where. I hope you enjoy, Cheers, Chris

I sourced one today hopefully it checks out ok

I should add its for an E30 Series car so those bigger valves and cam are no good to me

As stated in the title, I'm after a head and cam or a complete head. Must be in good condition. I've pulled the two I've got apart and the camshaft journals are both buggered. Cheers, Chris

My car is in desperate need of a new exhaust system. Whats the best value for money option out there? Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. Budget of maybe $750? Chris

Does anyone know if they are the same. I know the rear doors are different but are the door cards the same? Cheers, Chris

Ill give you $150 for the Getrag 240 gearbox??
