E21 mags with the wrong offset and fairly curbed, Nothing special. Dish isn't that great either, he does have bottle caps that he'd swap with them but my advice to "stay away" doesn't change. Before we came around the car had been pre-warmed, he claimed "just drove it out of the garage" - which he obviously hadn't (temp at halfway) And he doesn't actually have the previous owner details "on him" meaning good luck getting it back on the road, that and it last was on the road 2001.

Just a warning to you folks, I don't want anyone to get ripped off on this particular auction: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.as...3710&key=165399 I went to see the car, we were the guys who took it for a spin and had it sh*t out on us... Definately wasn't running "sweet" as he claimed, so if you're looking for a cheap E30 hack this isn't the one for you. Only posted this because I don't want to see anyone have to go through the hassles of purchasing this. BTW - this car was brought as a parts car initially by him. Tops I'd pay for it as parts would be $250 for a manual swap (but he didn't accept that!)

Didn't buy that wheel from a guy called Nate did you? Looks mean... If you are going to get a strut brace made up smithy, just measure the distances/clearance in your car and get one made up.

Same things happining with mine. Tends to happen in colder weather or first thing in the morning. A quick blast of the heater and it springs into life. The tap on the plastic also works.(sometimes) Checked all the logical things like speed sensor connections etc... A splice into the ground wire from speedo to another ground worked fine for some time. But its back to the same old tricks again. Look on the bright side.Its keeping the milage down!

Round off that square box with this fashionable spoiler, looks and feels great.

Unfortunatly for Isuzu, the Gemini never really took off in the world of drifting.
-
Have seen a few around, none that look good though. You could get one made up for a few dollars with a piece of acrylic and a heat gun to bend the edges to attach it to the car?

Oki doki, Is passenger side. Is in good nick. And still would look lovely on a luxorbeige 320i. $45 seem ok + postage?
-
I have one (can't remember if it was drivers or passenger, will let you know by tonight) off Pre-Fl 325i, good condition in zinnorot. Would look good on a beige beemer

Please Pm me some offers and I'll nay or yay them from there

Selling one Zender Rear E30 Spoiler, made of the same stuff the BMW spoilers are made of, black in colour (not painted) assume it's fairly rare to come by. Can send nationwide. Offers please thank you kindly. Looks like this installed. Mr T approved. Pity the fool who don't buy this.

Sounds nearly identical to my SA 320i I picked up. Give us a buzz when you have moulded the rear mtech1.
-
I've got a nice shiny red panel, would ummm match your calipers :banghead:
-
It's a pain with the rear FL arches giving it that squatting look - even though the suspension is the same height all around. Our 325i is 82mm off the ground all around (As measured by the official NZ police "your car is too bloody low" stick) - How low is yours? looks very similar.

Bumpity bump, Still at the same stage as we were when it was first posted, engine in but no worksie (mate got made redundant so he'd prefer to not spend money on this project atm) The previous engine was a late model (90) 320i Motronic, and this (2.5) engine is a 1985 motronic, can't get the thing any spark, fuel or any other necessities to make the puppy run! I think the computer is getting no power, But I'd assume it is getting power on the basis of everything is hooked up... Prefer using the computer which came with the old engine if thats possible, or like you mentioned Gus using the 320i computer and associated wiring loom - how much work in this? I was under the assumption (the mother of all..) that the engine would run no problems on the basis of the engine and it's computer which came with it we're kept together, and the only problem being the car->engine plug which would have different pinouts and I'd just need to mate them up correctly (like the E30 m50 swap)... Help? Cheers. :bowdown:

May have what you're after, have 2x early 320i exhaust systems lying around. Give us a txt on 0212672491. Cheers, James.

Just an update to the thread, the 2.5 is in the car as is the manual and the three pedals. Good to see you Gareth, the 325i (2.8) is a bit of fun Only trouble we are having is getting the thing started, we have sorted out the fuel line issue but I am under the understanding I need to get tricky with the engine harness pins to mate upto the fl-320i body harness. The plug I am talking about is the round 'screw-on' one that is held in by a round bracket on the passenger side near the fuse box. If anyone has any correct pin-diagrams for this plug (for a '85 325i (the engine) and a '90 320i (for the body)) please let me know. I assume I am correct in that the 325i computer which came with the engine just needs to be mounted below the steeringwheel and power will come from the battery loom which came with the engine. The engine is correctly earthed, is getting fuel but no spark - which I assume is directly related to the pins not lining up.
-
Mate may want - will post soonish.
-
Yeah have one, Give me a call on 0212672491 or 9808754 Needs a re-paint though as currently red on the underside, charcoal on the top

BTW I've got an absolute mint one for sale

Black auto silicone works a treat, not perfect, but a damn sight better. Press into crack with wet finger and remove excess. Simple.
