E34's look better too, don't forget that.

This.

Shimmys.

Erratic/rough idle usually means intake manifold gaskets

OBC warnings referring to rear light clusters are usually a broken loom in the boot

Make sure trans is shifting smoothly. Drive it when its cold and listen for a whine. Check for stalling when N selected etc.

Look for evidence of coolant leaks in the engine bay.

Not much else goes wrong with these cars.

Be aware that $5800 is optimistic.

Yeah i wouldnt bother. For example i recently offloaded a mint 540 with a bung trans for playmoney. Was ripe for a 6 speed swap and could easily be done for quite a bit less than the buy now on that. M60 is a fantastic engine too.

engine?

auto/manual?

details would help!

Concave will be visibly deeper on the wider two if staggered.

Really dig the 1/2 leather too. Very nice car.

Ahh, Black lifted trucks with black, low offset steelies + mudders. My second love!

My old beast:

Love it.

But then I'm not one to hate on a car just because a certain person built it.

Hot car! Absolutely adore the interior. Going by recent listings/sales i'd say $17-20k

Yep. Cut it loose, but its going to a good home

SOLD

+1 for pics. Will be looking for one of these once i sort out my 540. What wheels does it have on it?

That whole fly along at 80 in 100zone then get to a 50 zone and continue along at 80.

This cuntry cant drive for sh*t.

Agreed. f**k, we could be here for years having a moan.

Buy F6, tweak it and laugh at everybody as they disappear in the rear view mirror.

Better loose the panda eyes too...

You'd be wanting an F6-E then. And i fully agree with your sentiments.

You FINALLY get past and pull to the left because Scoobaru wants to rocket past. You pull in behind and they sit at 103 or less.

That is the most frustrating part of other people being on the road

haha, yep thats me. Except i dont sit at 103, I usually give it a nudge up to 120 or so and then when i'm past the queue, move left and drop back to 110. I also won't tailgate until the car in front has a clear space on the left to move into. Then i'm all over 'em.

I do the best i can to not hold up traffic thats moving faster than me, which is why i dont like being tailgated, but am happy to hypocritically tailgate myself.

Give Warren a buzz @ http://rimrite.co.nz/about-theman-for-mags.htm

Top bloke that does a top job.

I'm with Oli.

But then we're both in Wellington where it seems that any lane is an acceptable lane to do a consistent 20km/h under the speed limit.

Also, Engage ABS works well for tailgaters.

Its an E34 2 door convertible .

I am seriously disturbed.

Saw an Aston Martin Rapide Nailing it from every set of lights along the Wellington waterfront yesterday. Sounded choice.

Think H&Rs are 40mm from memory.

Great buy you got there, Welcome!

had a similar issue with my old 540 and it turned out to be the crank sensor. there's a way of measuring it with a multimeter, but i forget what it is.

sweet, thanks brent

Basic Question - Will a 5HP30 from either an E32 or M60 powered E38 work when mated to an M60 in a E34?

I realise that physically they should be teh same, but is there any electronic issues to think about?

There's a very good reason you cant find any now.
