I'm very happy with the M3 so far but the exhaust note does nothing for me. I have this M Performance on my watchlist but according to some of the commentary on YouTube, it's loud. Does anyone have any experience with this system?

F80 M3 in the garage so my 330d has to go. Very tidy. On TM for $24,000 but will take $22,500. TM link here

So a very long time since my last post but my daughter is looking at this . I am out of touch re the merits of this model and the asking price. I would appreciate any comments on what to look out for

Very trick 335 in Taupo

Pretty sure my old car is coming on the market soon, would love to have her back but no room anymore. Search my old posts which cover Oil pump drive tabs inspection and crack test - new con rod bearings – solenoid joints re-solder - BMW chassis structural foam and reinforcement plates AC Schnitzer coil over suspension and spacers front and rear - reupholstered drivers seat and white contract stitching - OEM short shifter and ZHP knob fitted. Underside has been fully detailed including body colour paint, Car is in AKL - keep your eyes on TM

I sold my gear (cam alignment tool + cam check tool + shim tool) to form member J-dog Sep-14. Don't know if he is still around but would be worth a PM. I spent a lot of time cutting through all of the "internet shite" around how to set up the Vanos. It has been a couple of years since I did this but can advise as required

He has my vote Tom - they say all babies are cute but some of those other critters?????????

Personalised Euro plates for sale - will improve price for BS members http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=909491241

For me the M3 was more a hobby than a driver so I need a replacement hobby. It will be a BMW but older with late model running gear. Really admire Westies work (and yours Josh). I am looking for inspration.

Sorry but Ray scored those early on - will update my BS add Cheers - I am staying firm on my price but (elephant in the room!) I have brought a new SS and now more than ever I find it hard to justify having the M3 in my garage. Yes I know - traitor/loser/idiot but when my daily was a ute it wasn't hard to pick the M3 for that special trip. Now the SS is not a bad drive - hopefully the honeymoon will still be over soon and (failing a sale on my terms) the M will shine through and the romance will begin again

I have been selling the original parts off as the people who have viewed is so far are keen on the car as it sits versus stock. The plan has been to recover what I can from the parts and wait for the right buyer Cheers Ray - yes it would get musc better exposure at yours than mine (last census my town had 960 permenant residents). Problem with yours is that I would turn my back and it would have a S62 in it - hmmm............ Would have agreed until I drove a 335 - very nice but not a sports car Yes I thought about this - might keep it simple next TM sale cycle

So the M3 sold to a guy from Grey Lynn - give him a wave/toot/flash when you see him around. Sold off most parts too so got a pretty good settlement all things considered (i.e. current market value for these cars). Still have stock suspension, personalised plates (I BMW3 I), cam tools (cam alignment, cam check, valve shim tool) and diagnostics computor to move, any interest please send me a PM. Sad day yesterday handing over the keys but gone to a good home

Looks sweet GLWS

Just looked at the Hyperdrive website. They are quoting $352 each for the fronts and $432 for the rears - so $1,568 brand new. Less 25% (being my estimate of the wear) = $1,176 So my buy now of $800 is a bit rich for second hand - $600 sounds like o good BS member price Note that Ray is organising transport for another item so if you are keen this may be an easy way to get the tyres to Auckland?
