  1. You'll need the little arm that that connects to the headlight leveling sensor too - M3 unit (couple of bucks)
  2. Yeah the extra camber moves the top of the wheel inwards (as well as making the front end way more pointy). My ACS's (ET43 19x8.5) used to rub over bumps on the front gaurds with 235s, 225s didnt rub. LCAs solved it and can run 235 all around. Im on ET38 18x8.5 235/35 (so 1mm difference to Qube) and no rub with M3 LCAs (and mines a few mm lower)
  3. M3 LCAs will probably do it, made the difference on mine.
  4. Probably worth more than anything BMW made in estoril blue now anyway 😛
  5. Perhaps if you bought a vacuum cleaner on pick up, then vacuumed underneath it, it would be considered complete.

  7. Possibly, it does have ITBs. Said after driving it back from down south decided that screw turboing it, ITBs are the way There is something to be said about NA, even if slower, bouncing off the rev limiter in my old black top BZ-Touring was hilarious fun... wasnt fast but the noises and way it made power manically at 7500rpm probably made up for it. Need to get tweek the 130s "torque everywhere" engine setup and make it more manic
  8. Stock non M bumper. turns out is all just custom made, some guy really wanted an "alpina" 1er.
  9. Pile of rust - 50k.... https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/porsche/911/listing/3342159031?bof=2ZZQ2xbL
  10. AFAIK, did some research into it (I wanted an excuse for Alpina stripes....), there was never an Alpina 1 series... But this has me questioning that - That lip spoiler looks alpina, and the wheels look E87 offset (rather than E9x)...
  11. Nice clean E87 123d at Totara Park MTB track this evening.. member? Feel like I need to be strapping the bike to the 130 rather than hiffing it in the back of the ractis to fit in the carpark now.
  12. Good to see those wheels looking good
  13. A mate just bought a tidy, manual, AW11 for 18k I wonder what Japans fleet of 130s currently is, I suspect we have more of their than they do now!
  14. Gearboxes are pretty rare, so it wouldnt be cheap. Not many cars (130s and Z4s) have the GS6-37 Clean/Manual/Nof**kery/low km/well serviced/nice (rare) wheels/prefacelift purity.... 15k is reasonable for the right buyer (and would be considered dirt cheap internationally)
  15. Nice. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/130i/listing/3378674969
  16. One of each in right wheel drive, manual box, 6 cylinders.
  17. I use BMW coolant for The Purity.... and Penrite HPR5 because its the jam.
  18. Took it on an essential services run south of the border... feels like an achievement. strange days.
  19. Waterpumps fail at anywhere between 10,000 and 300,000km, they'll throw a check engine light though. Is it throwing a code?
  20. Wow, someone got an absolute bargain
  21. 130i registry has been started https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/134BvssGMK7jqiTlNn9AUErBILKyMdSpQY2enh6CRrEI/edit?usp=sharing Early days, will get updated and made less crude as it goes.
  22. Thats pretty cool, but 22k uncerted.... You'd be better off just getting a 135? Id guess 15ish...
  23. Are they the same mirror covers as yours? Got a link?, I had a search awhile back but couldnt find them.
