Thanks mate, although your link doesn't work, I already wrote an email to that guy, might not be doing it in the near future, but this is my big plan in the next 5 years. Cheers

Hi guys remember me? after moving to Brisbane, I miss my 328ti everyday, I finally decided to buy another ti. 2nd hand market is horrible here, extremely high mileage, crappy paint and trim (due to sunlight), high cost, restrict to mod...etc But I still manage to find a ti with fair price/mileage. The exterior condition is beautiful, owned by a careful lady, regular serviced in BMW garage and all recorded in it's handbook. Although I was searching for a black M-spec model, this blue manual SE ti really hit me. I'm going to replace the SE bumpers to M-tech one in the near future, and after I blow this engine, I'll drop an M3 engine this time ^^ hopefully it is legal.. Just some quick photos at 1st day owning it: Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Car sold

I am sorry to bring this up again, but I have to choose between my car or my wife... This car must go in 2 weeks, see pix and spec from below link http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....showtopic=31838 I was planning to bring it overseas, so I didn't update reg and WOF, but shouldn't be any problem getting wof done, if your offer is reasonable I can get them done before hand over. I will drop it under $8000. but you can offer me, serious buyers only please PM me or text/e-mail me.　0211604313 penny13mw@yahoo.com

The conversion was done by last owner, He has everything cert. engine, brake, suspension...etc, (I just added those little luxury parts) I just had another ride with my car this morning, I decided not to accept any other offer (except those who already contacted me), if you guys don't take it I will keep it in my friend's garage until I saved up to ship it to AUS. I couldn't sleep last night, really don't want to say goodbye to my beloved car, I was so regret I listed it just because my wife's nag.... I had a 220Ps Autech Pulsar and I sold that for this TI, I never had such great driving pleasure before I met it, not even my friend's 2004 Integra or 1999 Silvia, I sat in the car and look around, with all the memories flash back, I decided to change my mind, sorry for being such a jerk.... And I am cool to share my TI vector file, please leave (or PM) your e-mail, I will send it to you directly.

Yeah, you guys are pro, the last owner told me that number, I have not dyno my car yet, (and no more chance in the future, sad) I should edit the post and maybe say it's around 210ish?

I really don't know what kind of price tag I should be listing... any suggestion?

I am moving to AUS and not willing to pay supa high tax to bring it over, sadly have to sell this beloved car. Perfect panels, chassis, no rust and no Sunroof (more rigid)， I have put a lot of money and effort on this car, hopefully I can get a good offer. contact me at penny13mw@yahoo.com To not conflicting with forum rule, lets say $9500, I really don't know how much this car should be worthing, please don't hesitate to give me your best offer, thanks. See photos here http://pennyfan.pixnet.net/blog/post/3011049 and here http://pennyfan.pixnet.net/blog/post/3121272 And, if anyone share me a cheaper way I can bring my car to AUS, I'd be very appreciate.

Try KKK car part at New Market kyber pass. They have planty of selections, 5000k, 6000k, 7000k and 8000k.

Wow Glenn, you have done it! nice work!! I am sure you will enjoy driving manual car plus the LSD. But you have spent much more then what I expected. 2500rpm at 100km/h huh? its really nice. mine's like 3000rpm, bad ratio.. I wish you can drive my car and tell me the differences between these 2 one day.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Car-parts-accessories/BMW/Diffs-axles/auction-207011268.htm Did it only cost you $600 for the E30 LSD? I found this on the trademe with 750 STARTING BID! God know how much he want for buy now.. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Car-parts-accessories/BMW/Engines/auction-207248718.htm Also saw this, large case LSD for much cheaper. I guess this one doesn't fit our Ti, or does it?

One of my bonnet strut need to be refill again, I have been told it always need to do so every now and then.. Got quote for around $50-60 for one refill, also found some 2nd gas struts on trademe for very cheap. Which one would you go for? Anyone know another place for cheaper refill? thanks

Do you have to take the whole engine out for this conversion? Really nice photos.

lol I am really sorry about that, having some personal problem recently. I am still trying to fit a poorly made CF hood properly, kind of ashame to show you my car. But I will meet you soon, just the matter of time.

Its nice to know you start doing it, looking forward to see the result. And with this experience, I hope you will be able to help mine in the furture.
