Till you have a chromed 458 Italia you aint yet made it

+1 Mate has one (6 speed), it goes well, not particularly fast though (low 15 1/4's) Nice car though, nice to sit in
-
Anyone got any, or know of a source, of legal brake booster vacuum line? Ive searched the local suppliers but they all look at me like > Dont need much, maybe 15cm, to fit an M50 manifold (cant remember measurement ATM) Prefer new over second hand, but am not too fussy

fock do repco suck. Give them the right p/n, they give me the wrong tridon part... and charge $100 for it.. Useless as tits on a bull.

Removed the epically complicated heated window squirter/headlight washer system that leaked like a sieve and had wires/tubes/T-connectors up the wazzooo. KISS was not the motto for this system on an E30, WTF were they thinking! Two wires, 1 tube, no leaks FTW.

+1 Aircon = Cool. Heater = Hot. Car Hot + Hot outside = Open Window + Drink cold beer. Car Hot + Cold Outside = Turn Heater Off. If Heater is off, make sure it is actually off

Found one

The one for the DME, Blue Plug. If someone has one and could courier it too me be awesome.

Discovered this - Is not the right temp sender. Doh. Single pin M20 one is whats needed and if you bang it in either of the forward two holes in the head (instead of the intake heat hole) it doesnt need to be rethreaded. Working temp gauge FTW New problem though. Got angry swapping the senders out with the manifold on and managed to smash my DME temp sender plug off in my butchery. Bugger. Took the car to HellBM for a scan (Cheers!) No DME found...

I appreciate ya straightupedness bellicose, but E-bitching is stupid, the interwebs equivalent of these - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/RED-Brembo-...sQ5fAccessories Edited, decided some may be offended

Maroony E30 sedan towing a boat just before the harbour bridge, and a white E30 touring out in silverdale got the nod

The top gear ones are all tricky, took me ages. Lots and lots of failed attempts. Got to be hard on the brakes in the corners and out brake them (without nudging anyone) but smooooth on the exits so they cant catch you back up on the straights. The difficulty for them is a bit screwy, I got gold on the final top gear challenge first time (with the kamekaze VW scwimmwagons (sp)) The elise one is much harder due to the sh*t tyres...

What flavour 320? (E30/36/46 etc)

Silverdales taiwanese radiators seem pretty good. Out of the packaging its hard to tell it an and OEM radiator apart for around the $300 mark. http://www.silverdaleradiators.co.nz/cooli...;category_id=21 Radiator hoses here - http://www.schmiedmann.com/3_series/E30/Sp.../page1.htm#1424

^ Different. Forza has better crashes, and an E30, the rewind thing is kinda cool too. Everything else about it, GT5 is much betterer. Forzas physics feel much more wooden than GT5's. Indecorous - I just started playing with B spec. The trick that seems to be working for me is too get a angry driver and then keep him calm by repeating reduce pace messages when practical. Cars that handle well with rubbish tyres is key too, or the ass clown AI driver just does O's all over the track
-
Think I may have a small fuel leak, too small patches of spray showing up on the fuel rail cover. Cant see anything obvious but it looks like #5 and is too small to pinpoint ATM.. Wonder if Ive pinched/twisted an Oring or is it possible to crack an M50 fuel rail? (having nightmare flashbacks to my 944 fuel rail headaches...) EDIT - Must have been a dry O ring as its fixed itself.

Roughly? Oh..... Huntly...

After driving it home from the airport tonight decided I need me a 3rd muffler. It makes shweeeet music, but its too damn loud, gonna get me pulled over by the boys in blue.
-
^ The Hard Yards! Ill shoot over on the 3rd, cheers.
-
Sweet, happen to have an M20 temp sensor (for the gauge) too? When do you open back up after new years? Ill drive up and grab them and get ya to plug ya wizzbang scanner in and see what I cocked up with the swap.

Trademe guy is screwing me around Says he'll come pick it up and is a no show, 4 chances is plenty.... $50 takes it, the airbox, and a radiator expansion tank. And if you dont need the temp sender (gauge) you can take the lot for $40 Epic Bargain. Cant pick up till the 3rd of Jan though, off to Aussie for a week.
