Exceptional car and welcome to the forum

Both cars look real nice.I'm looking for a 540 what do you want for it.text/ring me 0274784447. Cheers Robert

thanks for doing this,happy to pay for your petrol/time for any running around. I realise with older cars what the deal is but i'm not really into modern cars that much, i've been building and modifying them for a long time.

that would be great if you could have a look to get an honest opinion.I've seen the photo's of your cars which look better than new which tells me you know what to look at.I sent ray an email at hellbm but never got a reply maybe it got lost in cyberspace. cheers Robert

If you are selling in June give me a call on 0274784447 i'm in the market for one of these. Cheers Robert

Is there anyone in Auckland who would be keen to have a look at it and give me there opinion

Any body know anything about this car .I'm in the market for an E34 540. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-278670842.htm

will these will definately fit a E34 540i and the price is $550 for the 4

This is what E36 bmw'S should have had under the hood.My old car with Lexus v8 in it

I brought mine from Etchell race supplies in tauranga,they are the same as used for american toploader,muncie gearboxes.Fit onto 35mm carrier. cheers Robert

Great looking cars guys

manual 325i coupe anyday over auto 328

looking to build another project

Yep my car.Not many E36 v8's.You have jason in chch

Welcome mate. Nice to see another good looking E36.Love this colour

sweet as nothing like shooting the breeze.I am just running the standard brakes which pull up the car just as good as when the six was in it.Have less weight over the front axle as the 1uz is lighter than the six

sorry didnt read between the lines

No i dont want an E46 thanks

Yep used the same photo with side view of car

I have only just listed this vehicle for the first time with v8 in it.Was going to sell without an engine last year but decided to fit 1uz.Thanks for the comments on the build quality much appreciated and whats wrong with the colour

1) your engine mount idea will work okay.Engine will move around abit sitting on those bmw donut style mounts2)6 cyl diff okay so far with car now being manual.

Here are the answers you wanted1)used factory toyota ecu/loom.all bmw systems are separate,just needed to have tach modded to work and temp gauge changed as is controlled by bmw computer which no longer exists. 2)the only mod in the engine bay is to move the abs pump.I also used a custom sump. 3)passed cert no probs with standard brakes,i have uprated the suspension and lowered car. Any other questions just ask Robert

Jason this is my thread.Have a look from page one there are plenty of pics.Your tacho will need modding to work on the toyota had mine done has to have electronic board added,costs about $300 cant seem to find your photo's on your profile cheers Robert

Jason glad to hear you have joined.Its great to have another E36 v8 car on here.I was the guy that rang you a few months ago to ask about your conversion.Glad its finished it makes the E36 such a fun car to drive. Any photo's of your car under the hood,interior etc. Did you get your tacho,heater,air con working yet. Thanks guys for all the encouragement comments on my conversion

here's the exhaust setup.pretty basic setup,just has standard bmw 325i muffler at the rear
