    e36 diff

    buy a 535i or 540i they have large case diffs , they dont break.
  3. i did swap out the steering box beacuse of a bit of play in the straight ahead position , made no diffence with a low millage second hand one i fitted , turned out to be just the steering universal joint just above the steering box . found that out when i dropped the front sub frame down when fitting the M5 engine with the headers still attached . fitted a e34 one now its nice and tight . old engine i fitted 30,000km ago , still runs good , sitting in my shed now , just keeping it as a spare.
  4. origianal engine has a worn out cam (very knocky) cooked ecu , but still pulled well and avg 9L per 100km on the trip home. the squre tyre we had to change at wharkworth . the boot after awater blast , have since had all the rust cut out in the wheel well, sand blasted and painted etc i just bogged the door up , have another to put on when i get around to painting the car . had to replace the battery box floor panel in teh front of the car . 16" by 8" wheels i picked up from drury tyres , old trade in stock , $200 the set (near new cond) the original blue leather recaro seats , i just dyed them with can stuff , have since swapped them out from a 1990 e30 325i that i had , had to swap the rails over . but they are a little shorter in the leg than the e28 ones . second hand dash from the local wrecker , hard to find one without cracks. did the dash when i had the screen out for replacement and rust repairs at the bottom of the pillars. lots of the parts that have gone into this car , have just come from my stock of e28 , e34 e32, e30 parts and wrecked cars i have done . has got new bilsteins all around , new H&R springs , most bushes have been replaced , some new arms etc , gearbox seals etc .one front abs sensor and hub/bearing was needed when i first got it . second hand stainless steel exhaust system from a e28 528i parts car i got . drives very straight , infact it has the least amount of wobbles ,shakes out of all of the cars i have owned .
  5. yes plenty of pull a v8 comme 5.7L 6spd could get pass me on the back straight at puke last friday .he thought i just whip by this old wreck ,but he just stayed back there the whole way . yes , fitted the m5 engine 10,000km ago . with new M5 radiator, and up rated carbon/kevlar clutch with 2200lbs clap pressure. but i did replaced the std engine when i got it 4 years ago with another std engine at about 462,000km and repaired the ecu (been cooked with 24volts) car was a barn find. original gearbox . diff was swapped out as well when engine M5 engine was fitted just to match the engine's revs etc . but the old diff was still fine (no noises etc) . the brake pads discs have all been done and have up rated the fronts to 750i type. i fitted a new screen ,dash and swapped out the ungly blue interior for the black/grey interior wheni got it . all original panels ,bumpers , i have a new sunroof panel , left front guard and looking for a good bonnet to replace the sleightly rusty/dented panels . will get the whole car repainted etc soon. other the year i have owned it , my wife used as a daily runner for about a year , i have used it as a daily runner for about a year and teh rest of the time its just been parked up or used in teh weekends etc . now i find i use it more often , so much fun to drive and whats a few more k's on the clock . some pics from when i first got it . a freind of mine helped me pick it up from north of welsford . took the ecu from my wifes 535i to get this one started , then drove it home with square tyre . previous owner had fitted a new updated circuit board to the cluster in 1999. A/C still blows cold , heater works perfectly , new heater tap i think . 16" bbs wheels replaced the old metrics etc .
  6. interesting did a carfax search on my e28 .and it used to have a number a few years ago BABMW . which is my intials Brent Aitkenhead . which sort of funny , because my dad brought one of these cars in 1986 . and brought the number plate NA535 which was Neil Aitkenhead when it was pretty much new and there wern't personalise plates back then . and our cars are only 5 vin numbers apart . one of the guys in the bmw car club (freind of mine ) owns the car now. car fax
  7. here is the car up for auction ... Mazda Roadpacer RP130 turners
  8. thats just a ABS sticker to advertise the fact it has abs .remember it was 1986
  9. yes not to many of those around has a larger bore , shorter stroke engine .martyn (topcat ) is using one of those from a early 635csi . using the later crank to increase the engine size and a do a bit of boring as well. also my M88 m5 engine uses these blocks (apparently have a stronger casting ) m -power blocks are left out in the weather for about 12months to age the steel as well.
  10. its a genuine NZ new 1986 e28 M535i (with M5 engine now,birthday present), speedo has not been wound back at all. still gets around 10.5l per 100km does 0-100km/h in about 6secs tops out at about 250km/h and has travel the equivilant of about 12.5 times around the world . still starts first time in the morning , uses no oil or water , every electrical thing still works , doesn't shake ,rattle(much) and still drives straight at 100+ km/h (better than the driver)
  11. they are rare from the very last of the highline 88/89 e24 635csi .dont bother , just find an early e32 or e34 block or any e28. e23 or e24 3.5L one .
  12. sorry dont have a scanner , but just took some pics with my camera . sorry big files .

  15. looking at about $900 the rims have only about 2000km on them , tyres are approx half tread
  16. maybe these , will need rings to adpat the hib size , came from a e39 . et10.
  17. race liegn(autoleign) in mt wellington . they put extra grove rings in the rear shocks so you can have the spring platform at different heights .
  18. last owner before used to go from his wellsford farm to his tauranga batch quite often . just spent the day at puke race track on friday afternoon . a bit of a thrash around for its up and comming half million K birthday. 210km/h down the back straight then hard on the brakes . a lot of fun . cheers

  20. i had anfd put jamex in my e34 535i's that i had , but had the bilstein shocks ringed so that the spring could sit lower , but yes , chewed out my rear tires on the inside . some pics of my old cars
  21. yea saw that . yes its sth african built car , like my old e34 535i , then the japs stick alpina goodies all over them . nothing special , except its tidy and has low k's . the short vin number was just like my car , shows up as a e28 1990 .

  23. hi , i have a 1994 e34 530i v8 . motor has been cooked . and has been removed with trans etc . looking at fitting a 4l v8 from a e34 540i . but just need to know about the security key code stuff . if i buy the motor it will come with teh matching ecu's and engine loom . but there is no key with the kit as teh car was burnt out . but might have teh option on a ecu froma earlier e32 740i with no coded key . will that ecu work and just plug and play in teh 94 e34 , or will the coded stuff in my car not work with it . thanks in advance .
