cheers bro
all good if I give you a call at some stage? 

Yea mate, anytime ///before 7pm haha

In regards to your wheels, try see if anyone has some 10mm or 15mm spacers you could borrow, these do not require  a cert. If they fit better, you can purchase a set, preferable a reputable set like Torque. Im in the process of getting one of my cars certed for adjustables and spacers, spacers that are 20mm and higher, will require a cert, possibly the 15mm too, but you'd need to check.

Having owned several E39s, i have found that the offset of 20 - 10 has been best for fitment and looks, but for your dilemma, spacers may be the fastest and cheapest route. The spacers will move your offset from 35 - 25 / 20 depending on what you get

I've managed to get mine pretty low. You just need to be prepared to remove the SLS if it has any. The NZ market isnt very big for the E39 Touring, but i managed to work it out for mine. Feel free to drop me a text 021 302 485 for a run down? 
PS i like those wheels

Yep. 540t

Thanks Ray, ill make contact soon.

Anyone wrecking an E39 Wagon?

So after several months of waiting and collecting parts, I have now managed to install the

- New Engine Mounts

- New Front and Rear suspension bushes

- Rear adjustable suspension mounts

- New Rear brake rotors and pads

Have also had the diff reconditioned and awaiting the new diff oil. Once done, I can then mount the diff to the swapped out drive shafts and hopefully start it up and take it for a test drive after bleeding the brakes and some misc wiring etc

And in other good news, have managed to suss out a painter and an ex certifier to assist with some paper work etc

Good morning to you all.

I require some assistance in finding a few parts for my 83 E28 528i, late last year a Subaru decided to kiss the left rear of the BMW at a low but damage causing speed and now that xmas has come and gone its time to fix her up.

I require;

1 x left rear door

1 x left rear bottom a-arm

1 x left rear drive shaft (i will need to check what diff it has fitted)

If any of you fantastic people are able to help it would be much appreciated.

 

I have a left rear door and left rear drive shaft.

PM me if you're keen

Cheers

Hi, What ratio is the medium case diff and where is collection? Thanks

Sorry, i cant see the ratio so not entirely sure. Pick up is in St Johns, will be removing diff this week

I cant seem to upload any pics lately, tried from 3 platforms and different pics. 

I had the same issue on my E46, but i landed up sound deadening the boot, was cheaper and worked great. Also, try get some deadening above the muffler, between the heat shield and chassis.

Another option would be to remove the new muffler and fill it with that metal sponge stuff you use to clean pots and pans ?

thanks lads, at this stage we are expecting to move in April next year, so getting it certed before then, will be tricky. I am, however, going to try my best to get it done before then. Basically i need $5,000 and two solid weeks haha
When im finished with the Low Rider 28er, im going to concentrate all efforts on the ute over the next 6 months

I'm not sure where else to post this, but..

My wife has been offered a really good position at the Melbourne Hospital in Australia. So I am going to have to part with all my toys at some stage over the next 12 months, so my difficult question is,

What sort of price range would you, bimmersport members, put on my Ute Project?

The rest of the fleet will be sold in line with there market value
