Other than that dent likely be cheap to fix too.

I paid $1100 for 4 235/35/19s RE003s a few months. Tonys Tyre Service.

RE003s, bang for buck winners.

Plenty of overvalued houses selling in Auckland for less than they were purchased for a year ago, all in the 900k+ bracket, whereas everything "first home buyer" friendly price range is still selling fast. I guess it depends greatly on what you buy and where to if property is actually an investment, spending 900k on E30s a few years ago wouldve have got a you a good return now

Wheres all the power going? Is there some horrendously inefficient regulator in there? I imagine all the internals are at 3.3v and using mA's of power. 350W seems like madness?

Buying and selling at the moment, goes unconditional tomorrow... (fingers crossed... lots of garage and workshop ) banks are finicky at the moment. 5 years ago they were happy to throw money at us for first home, now they are crossing i's and dotting t's much more seriously, and even having more of a cash deposit can make the difference between an offer being accepted or not. If you want a mortgage broker who is a legit good guy hollah, have a guy from Mike Pero who rate really highly.

Turned a pheasant into an amazing golden feathered firework on Old Taupo Road. Poooompaaah! Also.. Old Taupo Road

Why sell it?

What is the upgraded suspension?

Other than Lining up the arrow/triangle things to the appropriate flange, its a bolt in deal.

Yeah the biturbos are a cool looking car, that seller has a 430 as well.

Note the taped over plates...

Stumbled into the weird place on tardme. https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/specialist-cars/other/auction-1951517111.htm?rsqid=5f7a49ebee7e44bba9e4358e95960edf https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/specialist-cars/other/auction-1785789053.htm?rsqid=fe639708d35b453eb43b42a77a6bdd54

How to do you get grease in there? The shaft isnt removable?

So far ive used 5w30, WD40, and some scorpion bearing oil (similar to light machine oil).

Had a quick search, couldnt see anything. Has anyone replaced the bushes in these? Im sick of having to lube mine every 6 months. It seems silly to replace it as it works fine just gets its annoying squeak on due to dry bushes (and likely some play in them)

Glad I dont plan on selling mine with 252k on the clock Its independantly valued for insurance at 16k...

That is stupid cheap... Rare interior colour too. Wonder what the vin is, plates no longer associated with it

My one is defective, warranty is also apparently void.

Worth it just for the downshifts

Looking at the prices of these internationally... thats cheap! I guess its an E30 that is significantly rarer than an M3... There is one in UK with 4 times the km, none of the ACS heritage, and its 48k GBP.

Botanic Gardens in Manukau

I did mine with pierburg pump (OEM) , new OEM thermostat, genuine coolant, all new ali bolts etc for $650NZD, and about 4 hours labour (having never done it before). Its nowhere near as scary as the internet sometimes says, and the pump was at 230 something thousand ks before it started throwing an intermittent canbus error.

Whole car was a bit gross, listing was withdrawn by the dealer, and then popped back a few months later at a muccch lower price point. Of the 30 NZ new 130s, only 12 are manuals.. Less NZ New 130s than 1Ms!

Pre LCI, but its a good one (member of the bmw 130 facebook group). https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/406731473410916/ I wouldnt too bother about pre/post LCI to be honest, better off sticking to just good ones
