Yeah the e34, That has been out there a while. Quite tidy for being parked outside all the time. Don't think I have seen either in a while though.

Why isn't this common knowledge ha, Every thread goes on about using e36 lower end with e30 upper end and a custom guibo. Makes my life easier

I used to see an e39 like that parked outside the Central park on the way up to Brooklyn. Doubt it's the same one being in CHCH but same colour and ACS wheels.. I swear it didn't move for 3 months parked on the side of the road.

Interesting, no issues with WOF having it that way? Lower end slips over the e36 rack and splines are the same ?

I'm doing this swap soon to my e30, Just wondering what everyone is using to make the new steering coupling? I can't find a good source online for Polyurethane tube / cylinder I can cut to length and drill as required to connect the e30 and e36 steering arms together. What has anyone who has done this used, and from where?

Get a room you two.

Like I said earlier, I get that it doesn't apply to international. But the same principal should apply. I also never said I am holding ECS responsible. A little assistance ensuring your customers get what they pay for goes a long way. /thread

Not really relevant, You aren't buying anything there and that is the opposite - People would rather avoid the letter and there's no tracking on them at all. If you want to reference NZ Law, How about the Consumer Garuntees act? Anyway, Probably pays for me to read ECS' terms of use; So sounds like I wouldn't get a refund, but "notifying them within 21 days of expected delivery date" they would lodge a claim before sending replacement parts.

HSB - Black e90 I think? Brooklyn shops. Think it's Helena Selena Berlina going by the plate. Very clean!

I can't remember where i was reading liability laws for the U.S, but NZ Consumer law states goods delivered by a business that are delayed / lost, the business is liable not the consumer. I know it's probably not the same for international, but I did read similar when reading through stuff the other week about lost international packages. Anyhow I have raised a case with PayPal, I'm not blaming ECS but maybe this will get their attention. I'm not exactly going to sit back and let my $500+ go down the drain. Maybe as others have said, it will turn up eventually. Would prefer it did too..Save me having to reorder again.

I had that happen previously, But I don't recall losing tracking of the item and got a letter from them. How did you find out customs was holding it? I never said they did anything wrong and I never said I was going to vent to social media over it. I was simply asking if anyone has had experiences with this as I am taking the only route (that I have found) I have since ECS has been very unhelpful in tracking it down. I normally do too, but this was quite a big order..

Like I said, E30 gearbox mount and 320i linkage.

It's identical to using a 240 318i e30 box. Use 320 driveshaft / linkage and e30 gearbox mount. Only difference is you need a e36 slave cylinder.

Here is ECS' useless response after asking why they won't raise a case with USPS, after telling me to wait a week more and they will - Then refusing to. If delivery was not garunteed, why the f**k would I buy from you. Never using ECS again.

Anyone have experiences where they have bought from overseas and the package has been lost in transit to NZ? I made an order last month from ECS Tuning, Package was sent 13th Jan, Arrived in NZ on the 20th and hasn't been tracked since. NZ Post won't help as it was never processed and given a NZ Tracking number so hasn't gone through to Customs, so they reckon. ECS won't help at all, they told me to keep waiting and they will put it through USPS to eventually tell me "There's no point going to USPS as they can't do anything because it arrived in NZ". I ended up filing my own claim with USPS to investigate and plan on opening a claim with PayPal to refund my payment as I read and found that with proof of non delivery you can file for a refund if the recipient does not receive the items. Anyone had any experiences with this? Pretty much going down the only path I have but wondering how I could possibly trace it locally? I have to wait 17 working days for USPS to respond on my claim after their investigation and I will be fast running out of time to file a refund in the 60-day window for PayPal :/

^ E30zone Wiki you mean.

Thanks but looking for some that will not need massive work. Bump for 325i rear end minus subframe / diff!

Damn that 333i is something else!

Subframe sorted, Just after the arms now! You never paid me though Andy lol, I had planned on keeping them until this day came then ditched the idea. I helped Ando do his over the xmas break and I suddenly feel motivated again

Anyone have an e30 325i rear end, no diff or brakes needed. Just after a rear end I can rebush so no bushes is a bonus! Closer to Wellington the better. No e30 tax pls.
