  1. Actually thinking about it, i would settle for just an arm rest, without cup holders. The armrest is the main thing.
  2. Hi, After a black arm rest for my coupe, must include all the trim and screws etc, and be in good condition. Prefer leather, but will consider anything. Also looking for cup holders to go with it. Let me know if you have one around that you want to sell.

    e39 540i 6spd

    wow that seems like a LOAD of car for little money. GL with sale!
  4. all i can tell from that is it doesnt have the motorsport side moldings or wheels Looks like a nice straight body
  5. yup, looks like the one i saw, wasnt too sure on the plate when i saw it (only caught a glimpse of the plate) but that makes sense. DROOL.
  6. yeah, build sheet. Lift up rear seat cushion and see if there is the bit of paper still stapled to the underside. The seats are a pretty good giveaway but as mentioned pretty much anything could be specced to any model E36.

    E36 325i manual wrecking

    coupe? how much for the shocks and springs? dont have a center arm rest or cupholders? Edit, looks like a sedan if its the one in the avatar pic. Oh, and missed the bit about texting. Epic fails >_<.
  8. Spotted what appeared to be a RHD black E30 M3 heading up Taranaki St yesterday.... :drool:
  9. the market is quite simply dead at the moment... Looks like a very well looked after example. Not sure on the angel eyes personally, but very nice overall.

    Bmw 2002 for sale?

    woah, thats a stupidly cheap price O_o This car is awesome, and so much works gone into it.
  11. My getrag from a 318iS is also reasonably stiff to change. Not to the point of forcing it into gear, but you can feel it click into gear. Looking around the webs, seems its reasonably normal, as long as it isnt crunching or popping out. Make sure its running the correct fluid as when i get the box first fitted it had been filled with MTF when its specced as ATF, it was a real pain to shift until the fluid got changed over. Also be an idea to bleed the clutch. Do 318iS's have the clutch delay valve like M3s?
  12. Its been converted to manual, with lightened single mass flywheel 81,000k on the clock ATM 2.5L straight six Half leather completely black interior (to rips or major stains, just the odd small mark) Motorsport kit and suspension Runs great, uses no oil or coolant, never smokes, etc etc Regularly serviced, ive just done plugs, oil, filter, and shifter bushings. Sunroof All factory BMW parts used. They claimed the conversion had 90,000k on it, but i dont have anything to prove that claim. The shifter bushes and oil seal that i just changed were all BMW gear from Pelicanparts.com Just had two new front lower control arms, ball joints and nolathane bushes fitted. Also had wheel alignment done afterwards. Heres my trademe listing http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=427239947
  13. Theres a couple of ways to reinstall safari, but sounds like you may have fixed it anyway. Worst comes to worst, change to Chrome FYI, i use multiple Macs daily, and service macs for a living... Adobe aint an issue (other than flash not coming pre-installed on new macs, but its a free download).
  14. Had what appeared to be the Messerschmitt E30 behind me down the gorge this morning... looks freakin awesome

    e36 Front Lip

    Last time i asked genuine ones were only about $120+gst from Jeff Grey here in welly. I want to get one but concerned about having to mount it (and ripping it off going into/out of my driveway)
  16. i have a slightly different model edifice myself, awesome watches, well worth the money
  17. That E34 looks VERY nice, not so sure on the 635 TBH
  18. Had an E34 M5 go past me on Aotea Quay on the way home.... damn tidy! Think its plate was "Ris3n".
  19. lower rod is around the right way
  20. yeah, turns out the shifter is sitting correctly, but theres a bigger issue.
  21. ok, got the seal out. Now ive got an issue, either the shifter is too far back and i cant access 2nd and 4th or if i flip the shifter around it sits to the right and hits the console when i shift to 5th. FML sick of this.
  22. Been ripping the shifter stuff out of my E36 (with getrag) so i can change the shifter bushes (which didnt appear to even exist). Im at the point where i need to remove the oil seal on the selector shaft. I have tried screw drivers, picks, everything really and it will not come out. The gearbox is still in the car and im reluctant to remove it. The seal is well and truly busted up now, and would piss all the box oil out if i tried to drive it. Im in urgent need of some advice on how to remove this stuck seal! Any ideas? its this seal here
  23. Just FYI saw the car on the motorway again today. Very tidy Fiji green sedan. Plate was WR8886
  24. After plenty more driving since getting converted, im kinda thinking i'd like the revs to drop quicker between shifts. Has anyone done a recode on an early 323i with success?
