hhhmmmm hard choice worn out dirty old hard grey leather seats or nice soft clean black leather seats , i think i prefer the black . light grey , tan etc always look yukky when old. black is timeless

maybe dry solder joints in the amp mounted in the left rear of the car .

just spent the day doing this with a mate , swapping the old yukky grey carpet , dashboard , console ,arm rest , light grey seats etc for black . on my wifes 328i touring. still have to swap the door cards (fridays job) and then get the rear seats redyed black to match the fronts then maybe manual conversion in the next few weeks etc . old thread when i first got it http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....t=0&start=0

yes if you are quick. have someone intested in picking it up soonish call me 021433600

the bolt shaft is welded or pined in somehow , no sorry body shell is gone , but can rip one out of a e36 if that will do

they use a wingnut , i have some if needed

arn't e34's great 265 tyres in the rear with out any mods.had similer size on my old alpina kited up one , but it had 255 on the rear on 10" rims which looked a bit pinched in , should have had 265

maybe a fault in the cluster or cables/plugs betweent the cluster and the obc

theres quite a few of them , some in the engine bay around the fuse box and dianostic port. also the ones under the dash both sides into the metal frame that the dash bolts to (quite often used by alarm guys and they leave them loose etc) also in the back of the car near the tail lights /under the left rear speaker etc. also check the main erath straps on the battery and the main earth strap for the engine

yes lucky . at least through a tyre/wheel under the car so it can only fall to that height

viscous cuts in and out by the amount of heat that is transfered through the water pump shaft, heats up the fluid/oil inside . and what happens is over time the fluild/oil leaks out then it slowly becomes useless

silver fox got 160rwkw out of his unrestricted M54b30 set up with more potenial if the intake manifold /afm is changed have seen guys on the net with similer results. even with a m20 set up i got 112rwkw out of my std e36 328i with headers and e36 325i with a chip just as a comparrison

do it cheapish HP you can get . people spend heaps on cams , manifolds , ecu chips , afm , etc etc all only gain you about 10-20kw at most when this can make 40-60kw more at the wheels easy

i agree , have seen plenty or renaults and pugs from that era all with stuffed trans

check the dash dimmer is not turned down , or sometimes they fail . also check the fuses and the battery terminals around the fuse box also the earth strap bolts are tight etc

they are fine , mostly the same running gear as a sedan , coupe etc . less electrics than a coupe or sedan (simplier heater conytrols and some other stuff) normal things to look for a engine issues with over heating etc , oil leaks , diff whine , hood linning sagging etc . pretty much all the same issues that all teh e36's can have if not looked after. here's a nice one:) http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=367085021
