    Happy Birthday Chris, Do a skid and buy some hair jell..
  2. Holly f**king sh*t balls I have a new dream car. And owe Glenn an apology, they did use that spoiler, but it somehow works. Don’t think this will ever be a cheap car sorry Henry, they may sell as few in NZ but they will be collectable like the RS porches and M3 CSL’s. I wonder what other colours it will come in, hope they do a complete rip off Porsche GT3-RS Green
  3. Well they run a Mercedes Engine, that may sell as few cars, Renault supplied the runners up Red-Bull. It’s no different than all the other years that they have lost, losing to a McLaren, Ferrari or a Renault doesn’t make them look any better, F1 has always been made up of mostly F1 specialist cars with Automotive manufacturer supplied engines. Both BMW & Toyota have a lot of money and have poured a fair whack into the development of their cars, unfortunately money cant by what the winning teams have and never will be able to, teams have their ups and downs, look at Renault, world champs 2005-2006 to nothing.
  4. I'll wait for the M version.
  5. Honda left last year. I dont understand why they are all going, the racing was great this year! Sore loosers, pissed off a last min team with a small budget beats them, great time to bail though!
  6. Lol, Purple it is.. Dark Gold will look good.
  7. Its a hard one because his car is somewhere in-between green and a very light gold.. No colour really contrasts well with it at all but when I look at it the Green stands out. Black is the easiest option but could look a bit plain hence the BRG, maybe a medium BRG
  8. May sound funny but have you had a wheel alignment?? If anything just changing sway bar bushes will make it even more nervous, maybe start with the sway bar bushes and control arm bushes and get a decent wheel alignment and see how you get on. You don’t need fancy Coilovers, spread cost over revamping all worn components and the car should drive like new. Ie. Perfectly balanced. my 2c.
  9. Gold won’t work on your car, your colour is hard to contrast, I would think a darker shade would work best. I'd go thin in British Racing Green or plain old Black, or Bold two colour in BRG and Gold Leaf. Needs Alpina wheels though.
  10. Nice looking car, given it was NZ new and had a full documented service history I would pay 10 for mint one. Or swap the Touring..would have to be in equal condition.
  11. Don’t think it will be cheap though, 350-400 would set you back a few bob. 30k will get you a nicely built reliable 500+Hp RB30DET. You want something you can use in as many events as possible, no point building something that’s not eligible for any formulas. You’ll get bored of track-days really fast, especially in an AWD Turbo point and shoot car.
  12. Before: After Before: After Most of the work lies beneath, suspension, tyres, engine interior and stereo… does have new front and rear bumpers though. lucky it looked reasonably tidy when I got it,
  13. Must have been a TeRD Ute. They are ultra fast, dont ever race one.

    BMW 330i

    FSH mean NZ new and a better car. This is where I would spend it. +$1,000 on a remap/Chip = 330i eater. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-247687193.htm
  15. Say what? That is a sharp price, unfortunatly you will need another 20k just to keep it running at that age.
  16. Nice colour, by far the best E30 colour. Welcome to Bimmersport, enjoy your stay.
  17. Nice car. Would love to buy the missusme this for Christmas.. Hot day, top down, m20 roaring, dog on the back seat eating air, missus moaning about driving. I wish. Good luck with the sale.
  18. That purple Supra was in a teen mag I used to read called NZ Performance Car it’s like CLEO mag for boys, it was a cover car and had a center pull out poster I proudly displayed on the smooko rooms wall, boy how times change, a good reason not to modify a car. Im just posting up Nissan Cefiro search in general, every signal person I see driving one of these is a knob. They make a VL commodore look un bogan. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/CategoryAt...earchRegion=100
  19. Its a Ford, BMW were long gone.

    I baked you some cookies, dont eat them if you are working within 8 hours, they are quite strong.
  21. Im thinking not. ow look a fence.
  22. Yes yes yes. Don’t feel you have to pick a course that will decide what you will end up doing for the rest of your life, my missus like Cale did more business degrees and mastered in accounting and is now a brand manager in a marketing department. In saying that you don’t want to do what my cousin did and spend seven years studying a bullshit subject and them come out with no employment prospects due to the niche of her qualifications, she is now paying off over $100,000 in student loans decorating windows at Briscoe’s.
  23. Im in Westy's boat only that doesn’t work for everyone. If you do have the potential to go on and be a professional in an academic world and can’t see yourself running a business in a "laymen" trade getting University qualifications is the only way to go. I envy the likes of my missus who went through university and who now is moving up in the world and having a ball whist doing it. As said first things first decide what you want to do for the rest of your life.
