    I'm after some nicer road wheels for my E30...bottlecaps annoy me unfortunately.

    They don't have to be very nice...just have to be nicer than bottlecaps which shouldn't be hard.

    Only looking to spend $500-$600 ish, maybe more if they come with good tyres.

    No big hurry at all...as I still have more important race car paraphernalia to buy.

    After a pair of fixed race seats, preferably in fibreglass with brackets and rails.

    They will be put in a E30 track car and I need to be able to use a 3" harness with them. The driver seat needs to be on a slider rail as will probably have a few different drivers.

    Cheers

    Its such bollocks - its spam.

    NZ and Australian demand is a drop in the global bucket (30m people vs 250m plus in each of Europe and US), and in any case assuming people still drive their cars, the same petrol gets sold a day later...

    +1

    We'd still use the same amount of petrol even if we didn't fill up, and we'd just fill up later or before! Won't matter at all.

    Cool E30, especially the wheels.

    +1!

    Your 325i is pretty much my car's twin......except much cooler with the wheels & LSD :wub:

    I hope to see you at a meet sometime!

    Your comments about mid 90's Sentra or Corolla crap does not go down well with me and on a public forum to. As I own a 95 Sentra and have found it far from a piece of crap as you stated, in fact it has been and still is a dam good reliable motor vehicle. In the next line or so you state you had connections with the Nissan Silivia club for NZ plus you own and fairlady in my book if that ain't calling the kettle black i don't no what is, .Maybe you should engage your brain before opening your mouth in future and making statements that can and have offended people.

    Who cares? Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I personally have a soft spot for Hondas, I think they're great fun to drive. Others here would say they're absolute rubbish. I would defend the car with the good points and rebut the bad points about the car.

    If you want to defend a car, defend the car, don't attack the person saying the comments as that is irrelevant. The person's affiliation with another car club of the same make has nothing to do with how good a Sentra is. This is as you said a public forum, be prepared to be offended. You are entitled to defend your opinion, but an introductory thread is hardly the best place to do it.

    Sorry for cluttering your introduction thread driftit. I just had to put my 2c in... :ph34r:

    I have two Bridgestone Potenza RE01 Tyres for sale and two Bridgestone RE001 Adrenalins for sale as well.

    They were on my old car for less than 500km and the car sold. Unfortunately the tyre size is too big for my E30s otherwise I would use them. Fantastic rubber!

    The sizes are 225/50R16. Seen a fair few BMWs with this size on the factory rims.

    The Potenza RE01's are directional sports tyre - stiff sidewall, a bit of road noise, fantastic response and grip.

    The RE001 Adrenalins are more of a compromise, much like Eagle F1's or Dunlop Sportmax's. A quiet asymmetric sports comfort tyre.

    I'm wanting about $700 for the lot as they are brand new. Still got 7-8mm tread on them!

    Otherwise shoot me some offers for pairs.

    Will have some 15x7 basketweaves from a series race car for sale next week, silver with a bit of white paint on them from a previous spray, has been coming off from the waterblaster, but no curbing at all. Consider offers around the $600 mark.

    You have a message!

    Looks to be a pretty mint E30 mate...welcome to BS.

    Cheers mate.

    look at changing the jamex if you are building a race car..otherwise good luck!

    Heh, I'm going to need a fair bit of that luck! And yeah, will be going to the King Springs / Koni Damper route as soon as I get the rest of the car sorted. The car doesn't handle too badly as is. But definitely on the soft side.

    Welcome-

    I have some 15" BBS RS wheels for sale.

    Link: HERE

    Cheers, and thanks for the offer.

    Welcome Jonathan.

    Go for the RS's, nice wheels.

    They are very nice wheels indeed! But the offset is too high and the width to small. I'd like to be using the semi slick size in the E30 series so may have to pass on these. Which also probably means I have a very slim chance of actually getting some rims in 15x7 :lol: those series boys seem to be hoarding 'em basketweaves.

    But I shall be having a good think about it! Would make for some tasty road wheels :)

    Hi all!

    I'm Jonathan, I have a prefacelift 325i E30 Coupe. And I'm attempting (with colossal amounts of help from CamB) to build a track car out of it.

    It came with Jamex (or some sort of bright red coloured springs) and bilsteins all round. Also a tech1 steering wheel. I am well chuffed with the car, even if it needs loads of work.

    I also have a BMW 323i coupe with custom ferrous oxide chassis rails :lol:

    Just thought I should say hi as I've started browsing this forum.

    ...oh and if anyone has 15" or 16" rims that I could buy please send me a message, I'm struggling to find any :(
