    Dirty Thirty

    Nice work. Good little project, keen to see this progress!
  6. Hey guys, pulled the old suspension out of my e30 touring tonight. But found out its had a repair done on the left hand side, and replaced with a 45mm front strut instead of the 51mm one that they came with from factory. So after a replacement for the left hand side. Bare strut is fine. Cheers Blair
  7. I don't have any personal experience, but my touring used to belong to a Company called Autotek there, they are now First European, who specialize in vehicle servicing, so could be an option.

    [ E30 ] VERSION 2

    About time i did an update on my Touring project. Its not taking off like i had hoped yet due to other goals taking priority, and the car taking a back seat, but i have slowly been chipping away to some extent. Being brought up with American classic and muscle cars in my blood, it was decided to keep things V8, so the touring will be getting an m62b44 conversion! Its time to get out of my comfort zone, as the only place to get somewhere you’ve never been is to do things you’ve never done, right? Engine mounts, gearbox crossmember extensions, subframe spacers and an rpm tacho module was purchased from Garagistic. I also snapped up a 2.93 LSD diff, this needed the rear cover to be changed to suit an e30 and a delrin bush was added, cheers to Kerry from Mosen Euro Parts for helping me out there. Then it was filled with Castrol XJ oil and ready to go! My focus changed to the rear end of the car after that and i decided to give it all a freshen up. with the subframe being blasted and powder coated, new bushings from Revshift and a cleanup and paint of the trailing arms, i finally got this all installed yesterday. Another major part of the puzzle is the gearbox, i decided to go with a 6 speed Getrag 420g, this was purchased off eBay along with the shifter, and eventually got to NZ after nearly 4 months of hassles and sh*t communication from Kiwi Shipping, cheers to Troy for helping with this. Still a long way to go but at least the dream has started!

    E30 MTech2 Touring

    Great work man, stepping the game up another level, hard to keep up these days!
  10. A few members have owned this, first i know of it belonged to April, then Jason (SIRE30) and was a very mint and well optioned car, sad that it had since fallen into the wrong hands, still got a bit of potential i guess to get it back to how it was. http://bimmersport.co.nz/topic/29959-e30-325i-cabrio/ http://bimmersport.co.nz/topic/37703-new-toy/
  11. yup got them out this morning, have PM'd you
  12. I think i have some 45mm front struts in the barn at home. Can check later tonight.
  13. Spotted Tim Poulters white 4 door number 96 e30 race series car on a trailer passing through Fitzroy in New Plymouth tonight around 5:30pm
  14. Far out that's a decent strip down, looking good!
  15. I pulled the perfectly running M20B20 out of my Touring, then decided to pull it all down for fun. The block is destined to be a coffee table.
  16. look on r3vlimited, very popular in the states obviously Search on r3vlimited, very popular in the states for obvious reasons
  17. Good work, i ordered some stuff from Revshift yesterday also! Cheaper to get it through them and shipped rather than buy it from the NZ stockist...
  18. Il take it Ray! Will pm for payment details and shipping.
  19. i have a used clutch and pressure plate out of my 320i touring if you want it $50 plus shipping to you.
  20. Known as the iS lip, do you want genuine or fibreglass? Message member Hans 'bmrmad' as he produces fibreglass ones if you want one of them.

    Quick rant thread.

    Impacted/ growing sideways (forward). I wanted them out a couple of years ago but was under the same impression as most people, that they cost a shitload and id need insurance, after putting it off of a few years and not getting insurance or finding a policy suitable, i went to the dentist and got x-rayed and examined, she referred me to the hospital where i got accepted and put on the waiting list that is 4 months maximum wait. May be different for others but seemed pretty straight forward for my case. Going in at the end of the month.
