Anyone keen on Style 5? - $400 ono? Not sure what they're wortg A set of 5. Wheels are in great condition, almost zero curbage. 16x7 et20 Tyres are wofable but not major brands apart from the one Goodyear. 4 wheels have centre caps, spare does not. Pick up St Johns Auckland

Today's progress was slow, due to that damn water pump. What a pita of a thing to remove and in the process, I broke the pully - sigh. However it was not a complete loss, managed to finish the rocker covers (one of my favourite colours), replaced the Sump gasket, oil pump O-rings and started cleaning the subframe and thermosta

Started stripping down the M62 and replacing a few bits and bobs like sensors etc. Have also decided on Galaxy Purple for the rocker covers and a few other pieces too. Should match up with the flat Audi / Lambo Grey quite well. Should have the motor and subframe back in within the next week days, hopefully before I head to Bali

Thanks mate, but I don't think the E46 will fit due to the centre bore size, plus they will be kept on the car when it goes to the srappies or new owner

Still in need of 2 cheap or free E39 wheels with crappy tyres. Just to get the donor car rolling. Auckland - thanks

How much for the pedal box and shifter cover / panels?

Yea the Driveshaft Center Support Bearing.

As titled, before i order online, does anyone have one?

I have a full M52B28 with everything for sale

M52B28 Motor with ZF Auto Gear box. Comes with full wiring harness, ecus, radiator, engine mounts, alternator plus radiator fan etc Out of a 1997 528i wagon with 160,000km No known issues, but car has been sitting for about a year unstarted. $800 ono - Open to offers Pickup St Johns Auckland. I'll have an engine crane for the next week to assist with loading.

Friday it was decided that the time had come for the long awaited heart transplant. So we began stripping the 2.8 out of the ute and marking all the bits and bobs. I then began striping the 4.4 and marking it's bits and bobs for match up to the ute. Was easiest to drop the entire subframe from both cars as to just swap them over ? the plan for this week is to get the M62 stripped, cleaned and rebuilt, as well as giving the utes engine bay a good clean and tidy up.

The exhauast? Yea it will be for sale, its of a 530i wagon. $50??

17 style 68 motorsport wheels. Minor curbage. Tyres just passed WoF at the AA. 245x40x17 rears 225x50x17 fronts $500 ono Will confirm offset later today Pick up St Johns Auckland car not included ?

I have a mint condition boot carpet with them rubber straps, for strapping rubber bits, if needed. But as @Olaf said, its a great looking 540i. Id be keen if i didnt have so many other projects ? GLWS

Cool, will give them a shout 9n Monday as well as arrow wheels. After another inspection, the buckled part is also cracked. Repair could cost more then the wheels did haha

Ah what!? Haha if they don't work out for me then you can buy them ?

Any pics of these seats?

Yearly oil over the surface rust. Every 12 months we burn off the clear coat and allow it to rust up a little mor when coat it in used engine oil and with this heat, it bakes it in quite well.

E60 Motorsport Carbon Fibre Front Lip. Used but in good condition. Could use some resin on the underside due to scrappage. Will not fit M5 $450 ono Pickup St Johns Auckland

Style 95s with Archillies Tyres. Wheels are in good condition minus a few pieces of coating coming off, and some slight curbing. Tyres have less than 2000km on them with heaps of tread left. 245/30/19 up front 275/30/19 at rear $1750 pick up St Johns Auckland

Came across this wee gem this week at zebra parts manukau, thanks for the parts ??I left with cuts and bruises but I won in the end. 318 converted to 330 manual, perhaps by the lads at HellBM. Also with a Bimmersport sticker on the rear

Read my post again... I never said anything about their website, i said their stations within Repco. But thanks for taking the time out, of what must be a busy schedule, to investigate and point that all out

Thanks, the engine is in great condition for its age and mileage, 12 years of service history until 2017. Oil is pretty black now so will need a decent service i think. Ill try the 5w30 and see how we go. Thanks
