Bump, And Ive found some other bits that I dont need. M50/52 thermostat housing gasket - New (obviously) - $10 New O rings etc for M50/52 oil filter (Big one, little one, and washer) - $5 E34 M50B25 engine mount arms - Free. Will swap the above for an M50B25 Crank pulley bolt, cos F'd if I know where Ive put mine...

That lancia launches so hard, want.

http://www.schmiedmann.com/3_series/E30/Sp.../page1.htm#1786 Whole set of fix ya floppy stick bushes/parts for dirt cheap. Lots of bits for $30US! The worst thing about them is that all the parts bags are labelled in danish, so when ya order 30 odd Orings you need to go and work out what the hell you ordered at 2am in a bmw parts frenzy... Skumgummi = Foam

Chur, Id rather keep the diagnostic plug, for when I f*ck something up Any idea if all M50B25 DME's (Not TU's) have the same pin out?

^ Hell yes. Monaro is a good looking car. So's a basic commodore. HSV sticks a corvette drivetrain in them, with healthy dashes of Aussie-rice/tackyness. Gaudy as hell, and epically ugly.

Just cracked the gorilla mark in donations. Epic. I have two Mo gala Party tickets if anyone wants them, I wont be in town. You can have them for a donation Mo Platinum club FTW

New Question of the day. I want too thin out my E34 loom out, got a full set of M3 loom covers so need to ditch some excess wiring for it too all fit nicely. If I remove all the wiring from the loom associated to Aircon and auto trans (ie Pin 48, 64, 65, 85, 86 off the DME) so these all become open circuit will the DME still be happy? I cant find anything that requires a ground with A/C off, but without the wiring diagrams I cant be 100%. Has anyone done this? I successfully thinned out my X20 connector, once you remove all the BS its quite simple wiring wise on the fuse box side.

Yeh pity too part it out. Im interested in the GC's if you decide too, can possibly swap you my setup so your e30 still rolls. Ive still got some bits left too get for my M50 swap, if you want too part that out ill take some minor bits too. (driveshaft hoops, possibly the booster etc) Tardme it first, the world needs more 24V e30's, not less

How much do you want for the interior? Any chance of some pics?

Konis are 345+GST front 220+GST rear, per shock. 51mm fronts, sports. As of a few weeks ago when I called stocks.

Would consider swapping some bits for some 51mm front struts

$400... $600... $800.... Is the price of these getting stupid or what. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-330279059.htm Some clever chinese factory needs to start pumping out new E30 dashes.

You can have my E30 coupe seats, theyre mechanically sweet. Passenger seat of mine is fine, drivers is a bit rooted, but looking at it you could possibly convert a pax seat to a drivers seat by swapping parts.

For future reference - http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-328412991.htm

Also got a new rack end for an E30. Same as these - http://www.adl.co.nz/Catalogue/BMW/3+SERIE..._SUSPENSI_5434/ Box has been opened and got greasey paw prints on it, buts its new. $30

+1 If its too good too be true, it probably is

Rear sway links pic, adjustable whitelines came with rear links which i didnt expect, so these got ordered by mistake. p/n 33551126932 Fits E30 E36 E28 E24 E23 Z1 $50 incls shipping (in NZ ) SOLD

Google had a link comparing the two, essentially strong-flex=powerflex for less $. Ill post some pics when mine turn up, this week sometime I assume.

First of many orders turned up. 3 Days from Denmark to NZ, 1 week in customs... Boxed up very well, all the stuff looks schwwwweeet (including the scheidman branded stuff), and was a shed load less $ than ordering through BMW NZ. Very highly recommended.

Had a shave today, to get the mo happening. Got a bit excited and accidently lopped off half a handle bar. Doh.

Hey ive got a degree in Mus musculus fecal matter identification. Got it from an interwebs university. If everyone knew everything, what would the point of a forum be?

Yup, I got the same answers last night too. They all get sent as a $200US gift, so no duty/GST/BS on this side which is nice. At least they are fast to reply to emails. Sounds like the reason for the VAT charges is due to extra paperwork for exporting.... Took just over a week from payment for the bushes to leave poland, which isnt amazing but isnt shedhot either.

Chur, its shaping up OK, looking like the plan is gonna be something like this - Engine/Swaybars/Clutch/Exhaust etc all done in December, then im off to Seattle then melbourne for 3 weeks. Once back Ill put the car back in the workshop, do the suspension (havent worked out what im doing yet, coilovers/konis+H&R's or soemthink) pull the custom headers out and send them to HPC for coating. Strip and rebuild the brakes (or might just get new calipers all round, they arent too badly priced) Then stick it all back together again... Then work some EPIC OT and send it off for rust repair, panel and paint, likely to be a 6G bill (paints rooted and shes getting well rusty in the rear gaurds, below the RH tail light and RH B pillar.....) throw some new head and taillights at it along with new badges and a genuine Alpina type 147 front bumper, new window rubbers and trim, and maybe some stripes And thennnnn.... drive it until it gets boring and needs FI

Powder coating FTW. If your in central auckland, highly recommend Youngs powder coating in onehunga, I feel bad about the price this cost, A can of VHT would cost more....
