  1. Got a few cracks in the dash Want to buy a mat/cover for the dash to keep the sun off Cheers Phil
  2. Hi guys Got a mate with a stock standard 2001 E39 525i (M54B25) Looking to get a bit of extra power out of it. What are some of the mods he could do? He Just wants it a bit faster! Cheers Phil
  3. Hi guys I'm about to get dirty and change the oil and air filter on my 1987 525e myself Trip down to supercheap for a ryco airfilter and oil filter seems to be the way to go. Car has done about 180,000km so i'm thinking of putting magnatec in it. Any thoughts or recommendations? Cheers Phil
  4. IT WORKS! WOW! What a difference! It runs like a dream on the motorway now, no wobbles at all! I had no idea that a small piece of plastic could make such a difference! Never underestimate the importance of hub-centric rings! I certainly won't! Cheers everyone who posted and helped me diagnose the problem and thanks for the rings Johno! Phil
  5. Fantastic! I've been trying to figure out what it was, it makes a lot of sense! Cheers man! What are the rings worth?
  6. I've only had the car for about 3 weeks, just got the wheels balanced and aligned yesterday It's got a set of 225/55 r16 which look like they're off an e39 I had a chat to the mag and turbo guy in New Lynn and he said they could put some spacers in which might help it. and I mean 90-100km/h!
  7. Hi Guys Have been having a bit of trouble trying to figure out why my e28 525e starts to wobble between 90km-100km. I have had the wheels aligned and balanced and had all the bushing and control arms checked at the front and everything seems to be perfect when I get the car just above 90km it starts to shake quite badly, then it will go away and then comes back again intermittently. I'm starting to think either drive shaft bearing, wheel bearing or warped rotors, or even the drive train out of alignment. Any help would be great!! Cheers
  8. Hey does anyone know where I can get a dashboard cover for an E28?
  9. Hi Guys Recently purchased a 1988 525ea, E28 I'm looking at getting an alarm installed, any recommendations?
  10. I have a small problem with the wiring in my e12. Just installed a new JVC stereo and I happen to notice that when I push the brake pedal, it turns the stereo on and off, Any ideas???!?!?! Cheers Phil

    Gearbox

    Hi Guys. Got myself a 1977 BMW 530i with 735i running gear in it. Except the gearbox has decided to throw it's teddy in the corner. I'm looking at either replacing it or reconditioning it. I found quite a few 4 speed auto trannys around. Does anyone know if you can swap a zf3hp22 with a zf4hp22 straight up? Cheers
