    316ti Race Car

    waa close call with the black e36 at around 2:14 hehe exciting stuff
  3. damn this is looking really good! and that 280zx....!!!!
  4. RC's have been on the car for a while and the new wheels are the ones next to the car and yes they are mpars (reflected on the car)
  5. shipping is cheap now with youshop. not sure how much tax is but cant be that much on something this low value. and im sure you can find a buddy so buy 3 boxes between 2 ppl.
  6. the car i wanted to replace it sold so the e46 is staying. treated myself to a new set of wheels instead
  7. no longer for sale decided to get some new wheels instead. see project thread for sneak peak http://bimmersport.co.nz/topic/54264-horse-wheel-power-410-the-e46/page-3#entry594684

  12. https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/spark-plug-iridium-ix-resistor-6418 NGK Iridium $10 USD each https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw-spark-plug-genuine-bmw-12129071003 Genuine BMW $18 USD each Not sure how much they are locally but when I can get these ^ for a fraction of the price... hmmm..
  13. I noticed this too but i assumed that when he got involved with the first shop he didnt go through with this. and then the second shop just went and replaced it then said heres the bill. kind of thing. lol.. $600 for 6 spark plugs is hilarious in its own right. lol
  14. Never let a woman do a mans job... such as taking a car to the mechanics lol..
  15. i dont even know where to begin with this story.. obviously the first place is useless - dont go back there lol re motor services - its unreasonable that when you asked for them to fix only the leaking issue which was covered under mechanical warranty that they fixed other things like spark plugs. also saying that it costs $400 to show the inspector something isnt something that takes 3 days to figure out. they are clearly not working on schedule or are overbooked/overloaded with work and probably only got round to seeing the car on the last day. anyway i dont think this is okay. also not sure why the spark plug issue wasnt found in the service? its not difficult to check and should be one of the highest and easiest things on the list. sorry to hear this story really, you should be going to better workshops.
  16. only if you drive it like you mean it!
  17. paul @ milland is a bit cheaper than the dealers. its not genuine bmw but OEM quality. otherwise just get it from the dealers its only like $10 more i think
  18. yea listen to glenn and do the oil and filter again with the right oil and genuine filter. it might seem like a waste as the service was just done but trust me it will be money well spent. also good on you for getting a 323 not a 320. big thumbs up!

    Opinions please

    Parts will always be worth more but sometimes its not worth the time so selling it together might result in a quicker sale. Hard to find buyers for parts sometimes since everyone wants a bargain. Why dont you list it for sale and see what kind of results you get?
  20. It will always be a bmw no doubt.
  21. just use a google pic but pretend its your own.. no1 even checks anyway...
