So we now have four drivers with two wins each this season?

And here are the photos of the M Tech 1 kit. Doesn't look the best in the photos as it has been sanded down ready for priming and painting. But this kit is very tidy, no cracks, chips, etc.

Great to see so much interest, here are the opics of the M Tech 2 kit (See attachments)

Talk to me

Get the rego number, go to your local NZ Post or AA centre, part with a couple of bucks, and they will give you current owner details.

Good luck getting Jeff to reply to emails. The only way I got any response from them (in my case for late delivery of goods ordered) was to ring them....

Oli, you basically have two options, find a prefacelift gearbox with the sensor holes, or find a post face lift motor that you can get the later Motronic loom and sensors off. This is the better option, you can then use your existing gearbox, and you can get performance chips for the later motronics.

Maybe you juast driving too fast? Seen your times?

Mate that looks like a really nice example. Good luck with the sale

I have one, is in pieces and needs new synchros, $200. Hmmm, maybe those internals would fit into a 240 case....

Need two only centre caps for 14" basket weaves, or will take a set of four if that is what you got.

Why you selling so cheap?

Any body have any spare rear sway bar links for E30? (Just looking for the links, not the whole bar, but you know, what ever...)

Right outside my office door! Rough as guts, though...

I have just acquired a series of Dealer's Guide books dating back to the 1980's. Interesting to look at what E30's cost new back then, and how rampant inflation (20% per year) was affecting them. So, my 1983 320i manual coupe would have been $28,500 new, but by 1998, the same model was $63,821 ! In those days there was no such thing as losing money on cars, they were worth more second hand than they were new. So in 1988, the recommended retail for the 1983 320 was $34,000. My 1985 Baur was $65,000 if sold new in NZ. My 1988 M325i was $86,390 new. A 325i convertible was $91,000. A 1988 525e was $76,000 new, whilst a 525ee was $90,970. A 1988 635i was $161,000 new, the M635 was $198,762 An E28 M535 was $126,000 By comparison, a 1988 Ford Telstar 2.0 GL was $28,270, A Holden Commodore Berlina (with 3.0 Nissan engine) was $31,000. Cars were at their dearest in the late 1980's, which is when a) the sharemaket crashed, and Japanese imports began.

Yeah but the price has to be right. Would be a big job to strip it all down to get certified for road use. And big dollars to build into a batmobile replica for racing.....

Talk to Ian, he has one of mine he blew up one day....

I would wantr $750, and pick up from Welly. They are too difficult to try to ship safely.

I have M Tech 1 front, sides, rear apron, all sanded ready for painting, excellent condition

I have a fibreglass replica Alpina front spoiler in my parts shed - is in good condition

You cant just "Put a 325 head on" as you say, you would need the 325 pistons as well. They are the same bore, but the 325 head and pistons are designed to work together. What you want is a 320 or 323 head, (code 731) which is then a bolt on job. I have a complete 323 motor, with a head in very good order, $300.

Not sure what you want, but have a complete M20 323 engine (2,316 cc) or a 325 crank and rods...

I agree the one in Chch is very sharply priced, dependimg on condition. It appears to be full M325i spec, thus a rare bird. These cars will appreciate in value very soon. The Baur conversion is very well done.

You need to check if your gearbox has plugs for the 325 sensors. Any BMW workshop can check this for yuo in minutes. If you do, you can use pre fl 325. If not, you nneed to get hold of FL 325 motor or at least the fl 325 loom and computer.

How many do you want?
