    driveshafts

    And if you are to swap the driveshaft from another car, the Pre-facelift and the facelift driveshaft carriers are different.
  2. Damnit... Everyone with spare ABS rear arms! I can't find a single one down here at the wreckers..
  3. Yeeaaah.. I took shorty's first pic - lol. Can't beat that...
  4. Haha, the dash on dad's car looked like that when we brought it - some retard had painted it white... Check out the reflection of it on the windscreen, you can barely see out of it. I didn't know we did this kind of stuff to cars in New Zealand... That car's worth the amount of spraypaint on the interior.
  5. In Christchurch, $40 and it's yours - Pickup from Avonhead.
  6. I have one in good nick, but with sh*t white paint - Possible?
  7. The problem with dads car was loose connections at the back of the cluster, or poor earth - clean up the earth, behind the glovebox. A large portion of the interior loom grounds here.
  8. Chch, Not sure how much it would be to send.
  9. I'll have a crack at that e28
  10. I need some a ABS 325i rear end!.. Wonder if it's worthwhile sending... Keen for a swap with a non-abs 325i rear end?

    318iS Bits

    Keen on the cover for the wiring loom, firewall - on the heater blower cover - Pm me!
  12. Happy birthday dude, I look forward to seeing your car on deep dish 16's!
  13. The stuff we used on dad's dash - the one that had glue all over it, and painted white in placed that claimed it "won't scratch or fade" etc.. didn't do it's job, it cracked all over the show - and thats on a dash. Just get some second hand door cards in a decent colour selection - there's heaps around.

    Our new 318iS

    With all the facelift trimmings! Took the whole loom from the is, and virtually every panel! - facelift lights etc.. Stripped the sound deadening out of the floor + parcel tray, some behind the dash and used some south african carpet (the thick foam is a seperate layer on the south african models, so I could just remove the carpet itself - the original carpet weighs a metric tonne!) It's nearly running - just 'playing' with wires.

    Our new 318iS

    Yeah baby, Wrecked 318is's for life! Note the 2nd and 3rd pics are of the engine in my prefacelift coupe, the 318is is the shell, with dooorift damage.
  16. Definately sort that dual mass thing out... The flywheels in these cars are pathetically heavy - all in the name of smooth idle I suppose...
  17. I'll have to check if I've got a spare, I think I might need it as the one on my car is borked.. But I have wrecked 4 E30's so should have a good one around - will let you know tonight. Also, If you have any desireable E30 bits and pieces for swaps... Let me know.
  18. Check my post on the 'for sale' section. Cheers

  21. And if the tyres are of correct sizing for the rim, handling will be maintained? - I don't like the stretched look, and just picked up some OZ 17x9.5's for my car (with correct offset etc.. no fitment issues etc)
  22. Tommo, will have a whole car available shortly. in the meantime your welcome to get parts you need now (in ChCh) Txt me 027-242-5430
  23. Have a set of larger case (51mm) 325i struts with factory springs, shocks* - *not sure of the condition, calipers and disc. A bit beefier than what's standard on most 318i's and 320i's - good to upgrade them if you've gone from a 4 to a 6. $80 ono Pm thanks.

    Overdue fines

    A guy who frequents work who is about my age (18) has over $20,000 in fines, I was struck as to how it was possible to obtain such a figure in such a short space... This is how he did it: Drove mothers Honda Accord with no license at all - Caught numerous times. Drove mothers Honda Accord with no springs, passengers, after hours on learners - repeatably. Drove suspended (suspended from learners!) Got restricted Caught in unregistered, unwarranted vehicles - and fines for breaching restricted terms about 7 times. Lost license, drove (crusied at night..) suspended. Green stickers, and pinks for driving the above kinds of cars - with passengers etc.. Oh, and speeding tickets in cars with no springs, while being disqualified. So basically the guys a moron and the courts take $140 out of his wage each week so it doesn't matter what he does anymore he's never going to be able to move out of home or drive a car until those fines are paid off, and time ticks over on the disqualifications..
