  1. Woohoo, national instead of international traffic, should make a huge difference.
  2. Where's the new server going to be based, in the U.S.?

    self-owned?

    Don't think so. Paramedics took a good quarter hour getting a stretcher and neck brace on the guy, given he was in the most unusual of places, before shifting him into the ambulance. Wouldn't have done that if he was flatlining.

    self-owned?

    So the most bizarre thing just happened right outside my office on the motorway. From what we gathered watching the thing unfold was that someone riding in the back of a glass truck (smith and smith type) has fallen out through the back onto the motorway and was then promptly run over by a taxi following closely behind the truck (2 second rule obviously doesn't apply to indian taxi drivers). Strangely though the now unconscious victim was left perilously close to the edge of the elevated motorway on the wrong side of the armco near dangling off the side of it. It's a good 40m drop from where he was so if he'd gone over he was f**ked. The fuzz were baffled, was a good dozen boys in blue studying everything from every angle, along with fire dept boys and paramedics. Sure beats staring at a bs screen all day.

    BLOCKED

    We should start chopping off the hands of these crims like they do in other 3rd world countries, it's not like we're any better.
  6. I'll have a spare 320i engine shortly if someone wants a low k's 1990 320i engine for the series.
  7. Yeah, was already considering the SH37&39 bypass to Ngarawahia, just whether it's better to go to Taumaranui via Wanganui or Waiuru.
  8. I'm sick of SH1 going around lake Taupo via SH1 during the day and I also have a suspicion that the desert road isn't going to be flash this time of year. From Wellington, what's best, take a turn at Waiuru (sp) and head up the west side to Tokoroa or take SH4 and join up with SH3 to Hamilton?
  9. If the new layout is going to look like that it's a winner, top effort IMO
  10. Most run the Z3 1.9, isn't a major short shift alteration but is a bloody good compromise, replacing the knuckle and bushes is the more important part.

    Badass Mini

    I wouldn't mind having an old school 1250 cooper. You should go to www.miniracing.co.nz and advertise it on their forum, better chances of a good sale.
  13. Given that you've not included Zender, Hartge, M3 etc you can hardly ask which is the best. As for which looks better, with the tek2 kit the tek2 spoiler fits, with the ACS skirts the ACS wing looks better although IMO the Zender spoiler suits the ACS/Hartge/Zender skirts best.
  14. Need to give some more specifics, what makes you think it is running underpowered, have you been looking after it properly?

    Wheel Polishing

    If you're polishing metal use Autosol - works a magic treat if you can handle the elbow grease required.

    Attention Thieves

    Just be glad they only smashed windows, they're easily replaceable under insurance, but if they keyed your car or stole your stuff that would suck

    Was it a hate crime or theft?

    Heat sheilds???

    I have two sets of heat shielding for 320/323 which makes 4 pieces in total...don't need all 4.
  21. ALWAYS search the maintenance threads before asking these questions. There's plenty of posts on vacuum leaks and leaning out that you'll get a nice big list of posts to look through first.

    Parallel Imported

    They do have some pretty cheap stuff but you've got to be careful about what you pickup, like the mobiles, they have a habit of not being fully compatible. Car audio is pretty cheap
