Looking good... are they replicas or originals? And what wheels did you have on beforehand?

Sometimes bleeding all the air out takes a while.... park the car on a slight incline (front of car facing uphill) turn the heater on full, open the bleed screw and then hold the revs at around 2000rpm to get the coolant pumping. Keep checking for air bubbles every couple of minutes.... when you're convinced there are no more air bubbles leave the car running for another 5 minutes and then replace the bleed screw, top up the coolant and you're away! This worked for me (on an E36 mind you, but should be a similar process) Good luck!

sh*t you've got a lot cars Brent! Looks good... love the blue leather, and the TV is awesome, does it work?

Jochen sounds on the money with regards to this one... I had some crazy things going on with my instrument cluster too, but since I've replaced the battery these issues have gone away.... so also check your battery it could have something to do with it. Good luck. BTW - It's not a Singapore import is it?

This is not affiliated with Sky or created by Sky, this is just a dude starting a petition who wants a motorsport channel. Regardless, good idea though.

After how many squares do I need to get an inspection service?

Is it eligible for the demo derby? j/k

Due to popular demand (perhaps), my E36 is up for sale. I have my eye on a new car, so this one needs to go to part-fund the purchase. Here's the deal: 1994 BMW 325i - 4 door sedan - Auto - Boston grun metallic - 131, XXX k's (lots of long distance driving done by previous owner) - Imported from Japan in 2002 by Inch McLellan European Interior: - Full black leather with rare centre armrest - Heated front seats - Dial climate-control aircon - Standard stereo with 6 disc CD changer in boot - Full tool kit - Original first-aid kit and warning triangle in boot - New auto t-shifter - All usuals like elec windows, mirrors etc. - All interior bulbs replaced Exterior: - Front-end respray (bonnet, nosepanel, front bumper) - Facelift to 97+ spec - M-tech side mouldings - German plates - M-tech style rear diffuser - DEPO clear light kit - ACS type II reps with near new Direzzas on rear and Bridgestone Potenzas on front with ex tread. Engine: - Serviced May '08 - New battery May '08 - Fuel pump replaced March '08 - Mechanical (engine/drivetrain) warranty until April '09... transferrable to new owner. This car has been looked after really well by both myself and the previous owner who was also a BMW fanatic. I've washed and waxed it weekly and it drew numerous positive comments from BMW Car Club members on their club run to Hanmer last week. Asking $8900 ono. If you buy for that price I'll chuck in a replica M3 bumper and a pair of M3 wing mirrors too (need painting)! Call me on 027 407 5920 or drop me a PM Cheers, Mark. Â

Oooh... there's hope yet for me! Might take my car in to see if the trans is in maintenance mode!

Where the hell are they gonna put it?! Impressive: Yup! Pointless: Yup!

1983 Mazda 323 sedan in "Olympic Gold" (looked more like baby vomit brown) - First car, learnt to drive in it. 1988 Mitsubishi Galant 2 litre w/ the 4G63 engine. That thing went like a cut cat for what it was!! and now, 1994 BMW 325i. My first two cars are now owned by my two younger brothers, so I know they're being looked after!

You guys keep us alive... we should pay you as much as you want! The worst part is all the good docs are going overseas for more coin and we're getting stuck with the leftovers!

There wouldn't be many Racing Dynamics enhanced E30 engines in the country! You've definitely upped the resale value of your already sweet-looking car.... nice work.

Unfortunately at the moment I'm having to give up modding to keep living! Bills FTL

Your ABS light is on! Well done... that's a long way!

http://www.thealpinaregister.com/faqs Useful info.... cool site too!

Super Cheap or Repco? They should have chrome tips with rolled ends (which look the best IMO).

Cheers mate, I'll keep that in mind!

If it's cranking but not starting it's most likely the fuel pump. Get it towed to a garage and have them do some diagnostic tests. If you've got roadside rescue coverage sometimes that will pay for the tow to the garage... check it out first before you stump up the cash.

Looks clean Ian.... nice work!

Not my cup of tea, but I'm sure it'll look good once finished. For some reason your front bumper reminds me of handlebar moustaches!

Shipping costs are $106 dollars from Chch to Auck via Courier Connect. Drphta, if you want it I'll ship it to you for $410. Let me know. Cheers, Mark.

Will do Yuen.... bumper weighs just 5 kilos... so will ring around tomorrow.

Shipping costs are pretty high (last guy who bought it on Trademe was gonna be stung close to 200 bucks!!!) .... I'll find out how much the bumper weighs tonight and let you know so you can ring around shipping companies. If you find a quote that you're happy with, you can have the bumper for $300 bucks... at that price it's hitting me in the pocket!
