When you make it so easy to take the piss its hard not too. Its not because its not a BMW, its becuase its a full o sh*t deal that everyone has heard of before, combine that with the "muppet factor" and you have one funny thread. Some advice, from an old boy racer, from back in the days when 17's were huge. 1- Its a not a Beemer, bema, beamer its Bimmer. Beamer is a BMW bike. 2- Its not a Giza, its small budget family sedan with a turbo bolted on, add some gauges and a skank whistle. 3- Type in english, its hard to take you seriously with BS 16 year old gangsta try-hard typing. 4- Sas is spelt Sass, and doesnt make much sense in this context anyway. 5- You cant afford to maintain a GSR or 328, or insure one, so dont buy either. 6- The Fast and furious was one wank movie. 7- If you want cheap and cool, go look at stuff like that cortina, you will learn about cars, wont kill yaself, and have something that is actually a cool car. 9- You cannot drive a fast car, you may think you can, but you cant. I used to think I could too, I then put an old lady in hospital (well my idiot mate at the time I was racing did) 10- Just cos your mates talk like gangsta rapping clowns, dont join em, at least act like you have some sorta IQ

Oath. Its good to see not everyone under 20 is a twit though.

Sas the sh*t by rimming id expect.

^ Hell yes.

Might contract FGTS.

It'd be way too easy to comment on this, so I wont

Back when I was a muppet boy racer, we did absolutely no rimming Maybe that, and the whole gangsta rapper boi racer merger, is the problem with todays muppets.

"Rim it and Sack it" Maybe im not clued up with this new boi racer speak, but that is one terrible expression. If you plan on rimming and sacking, maybe an MX5 would be a better choice?

Nope, a mate is (I cant weld for shed) im just working it all out so he can build em Nice find! Got some reading to do.

Hmm.. All my tools are insured by my employer, even for breakage. I bust it, they replace it, someone pinches it, they replace it. I wonder if they just cover it and call it insurance, im sure they would have some sorta insurance on it though. I contracted for a bit, got it all worked out and valued at over 30k, but I assumed my contents insurance would cover most. Probably wrongly.

E30 parts are everywhere. New, 2nd hand etc, Ive had no problem sourcing anything ive wanted. BMW NZ prices are steep for some stuff, but its not hard to find good deals. What particularly are you looking for? Your looking at it the wrong way, an E30 is a classic now, and I cant think of another classic car with parts support in NZ, and worldwide, that can come close to an E30. E30 Vs. Civic . Apples and Oranges. Classic car Vs. Grandmas shopping trolley

+1 for the 328. GSR's are for clowns who think "they're a cool cat with their pants on the ground" Skank whistles and rice gauges do nothing but make everyone who sees you "boosting" think, that dude has a small weiner! Think about it, your 18, you wanna get laid. Which is gonna pull more?, a BMW or a thrashed Mitzy

Comparing all the 323i "sports" online, there is only one common thing between them all. 2 door and M325 suspension, and rumours of a different cam

So whats a E30 323i Sport? Poor mans M325? (poor mans M3!) Its refered to in a few websites. Im assuming it isnt actually a BMW model, in the same way a M325 car isnt a model but a collection of options boxes ticked. Maybe its a dealer thing? Why are they all 2 doors? Surely a 4 door with all the right options ticked is an M325/Sport then, or are they actually factory/dealer agreed models ie "you can sell only "this" as a sport/Mtech car" My car was registered as a 323i Sport in the UK in 1985 (UK import) But is a straight 323 on the NZ rego. AFAIK it came with Tech 1 kit, M badges (they look 25 years old!), No air con, no p/s, M325 suspension (bigger sway bars etc), 15" basket weaves, Open 3.23 diff, poverty pack interior, 5 speed getrag 260. Does have random other options (heated window squirters etc)

4L a day! Wow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADGHMixrko4 Ill go have a look for it tommorrow. Heard of it before, but just thought another BS quit smoking thing.

Damn, that makes a sweeeet noise!

Good luck man, Know how ya feel. Ive given up 3 times, and beer has been my downfall every time. Beer+durry and coffee+durry are built in to my brain... Nicotine sucks ass. Ive tried everything too, have a whole bag full of patches and gum, and about $300US worth of e-cigs and cartridges, and im still an addicted wanker. None of it works. Gum tastes so fricken bad you need to have a durry just to get rid of the taste! Patches give me hellish headaches, E-cigs dont fix the problem either. You guys rekon that book is the go then? Ill go hunt it down, It better be one fockin good read! Stay strong man, If your anything like me I play silly little head games with myself and convince myself that just one more is a good idea....

Look sideways at an Rb26DETT and they make more than 206kW at the flyweel! Verrryy Nice build, looks like a minter to start with! Big R32 fan

Yehp, mines med case, was refering to the M325 axles and joints into my e30's rear end. Tried google the diameter aint found jack

Shweet, added to my list of bits. Bolt straight in to my 323? Any idea on the the diameter of M325 axles, just double check that mine doesnt have them already (It has M325 suspension) Thanks.

Forgot too mention the front brakes are independant, it'll do some serious ass bone breaking stoppies, but jamming one on while pedalling hard does some cool things

Does about 40kmh on the flat, if ya cranking hard, Aparently it cracked 70 going down hill on the way to cape reinga (wouldve been shed scary!) Feels faster than a normal bike to ride because of the seating position. Yeh, Im driving the camera in the vid, and am the pink tooth fairy at the end (ha!) Its looks like a funky camber on the front end, lots of design went into it, getting the ackerman angles working shweet, works really well though. Turns in near its own length, but understeers a bit when its slippery. We didnt know what the course was when designing it, Mk2 will be much more refined, we were expecting have to go down stairs and the like, turns out it was near dead flat concrete hangar floor.

"Racing star/BZ Racing" 4x100 17x7's, unsure of offset (FWD anyway) Includes spacers (~5mm non screwed type) and hub-centric rings to suit E30. Some curbing on 2 (?) wheels. Tyres are corsa 205/40/ZR17's will pass a few more wofs easily excuse the brake dust and mud, the will be cleaned Make me an offer around the 5 hundy mark before they go on tardme. Wheels available in 2 weeks, new wheels coming and my carport is filling up with E30 bits already...

Ahhk for some reason I thought 8 bolt was large, 6 was medium?
