How do you figure 750-800? Its under 500 including P&P for a full kit. Full E30 sport kit, with diff mount and sway bar bushes, with EMS P&P = $462NZ , And the exchange rate has improved since then. Items under $400NZ (goods not including P&P) slip through customs with no duty/GST/Epic delay/paperwork. Handy thing too know I priced up some whitelines ones for comparison, even with trade discount and without the swaybar bushing its was over double the strongflex price.

^ Nice. Only just spotted that. Very cool. Very very cool.

Yup seen thoses, theres a quite a few that use koni shocks, but these are actually made by entirely by koni.

Anyone seen/know of Koni coil overs? The Koni website is all show and no go, cant find anything listed for an E30, but I have reason to believe they exist

I wonder if they fit an E30 (m50'd), the way the last 3 primaries are bent makes me wonder. Any chance of a profile shot with a ruler?

^ I think you missed the point. Epic post by 10 pence, makes ya think.

Wow. Heavy Duty shifter!

Got a link? Had a search and all I could find was a jaycar ignition on a 2002.

Starting current may blow it maybe, running it shouldnt (most 16" to draw around 10-13A) . I wonder if the softstart will be enough to tame it...

Screw the power resistor, just found this - http://www.jaycar.co.nz/productView.asp?ID...mp;form=KEYWORD

Damnit. My youtubes is broke

Please dont Tis what it tis, nice newish 318 BMW. Its not an M3. Maybe some nice wheels and lower it a tad, dont turn it into euro trash FWIW - 318's are 2 litre 4's. 320's are 2 litre or 2.2 litre 6's.

Bit random, but im after one of these. Aparently came in few lowly spec'd E30/36/34/46's that had genuine retrofitted aircon. Little doofa that sits in the radiator hose and has two temp switches. Preferably with the temp switches if possible

Thinking option 2 is the go, Tardme 16" fan single speed fan, with a .25R Resistor 80W resistor, should, according V=I/R give me around 25-30% less rpm on low speed. Something like this http://www.davebarton.com/pdf/coolingfandiagrams.pdf with the resistor jammed in the "blue" line (last diagram) THIS is the wiring chart for an 85 323i to 91 E34 M50B25. Ian Haynes did all the hard work He also managed to answer some questions of mine, couldnt find the answers online so Ill stick em here too. Correct, the DME simply provides a ground when it wants to illuminate the lamp. You would never want to ground DME pin 65. This pin is connected to 12v when the auto trans selector is in park & neutral, but effectively not connected to anything when in any of the drive gears. Just leave it disconnected when you convert to manual. On early cars (like yours), the Tacho and fuel rate signal don't go via the C101. They go via the C104 connector (3 pin connector) under the dash. Later E30's do run these signals through the C101. You can either hook into these wires close the DME under the dash (once fitted), or extend the wires from the C104 connector to the body side of the C101 and pick them up from the E34 C101 connector. I don't think the early E30's had the road speed signal going to the ECU, so you'll need to get this from the back of the cluster, or the OBC/Cruise control (if fitted).

Just figured it out. The relay mounting bracket supplies the ground, its sneakly soldered to some of the relays terminals. Red is +12V Green goes to headunit. +12V on the green wire switches the relay, antenna goes up. OV on the green wire switches the relay back and antenna goes down

Latest (November) Classic car is an E30/BMW Bonanza too BMW Club article, and a couple of targa E30's on the cover.

Found it. E32 Alpina cars VIN start with WBAP (AP - Alpina) So neither vin is alpina, and the cars possibly dodgy. From the Alpina aussie site - "Alpina Bavarian Motorsport is in no way affiliated with Alpina GmbH Germany or BMW AG Germany" So theyre not genuine alpinas anyway, but its possible its one of theirs? - ie - http://www.alpinaaustralia.com.au/gallery/e30/alpina027.htm

Hmmm interesting. Ones LHD, Ones RHD. WBAGC420X0DC15758 - VIN - 7/89 RHD WBAGC41020DB93675 - Chassis - 9/89 LHD

Carjam'd and realoem'd - WBAGC41020DB93675 1989 735iL - LHD Jap import, its been converted Why do the chassis and VIN numbers not match?

Looks like badging, wheels and an alpina steering wheel too me? http://www.m6board.com/alpina/e32b1135.html No build tag photo, no alpina interior, no front spoiler, no "gearknob of fine wood" etc etc I know if I had one, the first photo I took would be of the build tag!

Cheers man
