Get some good second hand ones. Also not much help but it cost me $80 per panel on my drivers seat to get recovered in vinyl inc gst and labour.
-
Andrew, what are the specs on the tyres that are on the weaves? Could be keen....
-
I have a spare 260 in the garage, it needs new bearings from what I gather, pm me if you have no luck elsewhere.

+1 for plumbers wrench. Get a helpful friend to put it in gear as you undo the nuts at either end of the driveshaft to take it out, then back into neutral and turn, then back into gear etc etc. Takes a while when you have to keep getting out from under the car and changing gear etc urself

^ You have an entirely different model car to her.

Another Calypso Red Beauty bites the dust All the best Ian

Great success. Learn't this lesson before when I blew about 6 fuses in one go. Always best to unplug the battery or do what I did and install a battery kill switch, makes working on anything electrical so much more pain free Good stuff Mark, if a job is worth doing, its worth doing well, or atleast twice

I want this so bad. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-251265797.htm Gorgeous. All of it is perfect and it is a realisticly priced for those people wanting a supercar.
-
Did you blow a fuse? I think I have a spare stop light + wiring here if you need a complete (ish) assembly.

Do it yourself you wuss I managed to do all mine in my race car with a little guidance from peeps on here. Just be glad it is a e30 and not a e36 wow

+1 looks good Mark. Did mine also:

Welcome to Bimmersport My E30 had Sportmaxx wheels on them 15 x 8 (0 offset) and camber plates installed which remedied the tyre being too far out from the guard (205/50). Go back to the shop and see what they can do, by right you have to get them to remedy it - just get them to roll them a little more. How low are the current springs in your car? My car was running 3-4 deg camber in order to get the tyre inside the guard, looks cool but handled like sh*t. So I binned the camber plates and brought better offset (ET15) wheels. A 60mm front and 40mm rear spring is imo the best fit for a lowered e30 from what I have gathered. If you give your current tyre specs also it will help greatly. Good luck with getting it sorted out, there are a few people with more knowledge than me on here aka Zenetti, but there are plenty of people that can help. Just out of interest, are the wheels the same as these?

Dug a bit deeper, found some more hidden gems: Manson: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzCX8IKDmk0 Drowning Pool: (great pump up song I use before a big race)Roach: Zombie: Cradle: (bit screamo but badass background music) Disturbed: Breaking Benjamin:

Looking good, I think the wheels silver look a lot more, how do I say, mature
-
Eibach 60mm fronts, 40mm rears with no rear spring pads. I am about bang on 100mm at the front chassis rail.

Incubus only the best band in the world? No doubts that they are my favourite. Anyone else go to the concert in Auckland last year? I was standing right about here: SCIENCE is a badass album. ^^^ I used to love System Of A Down when I was a bit younger, Mezmerize is a masterpiece, now I listen to it and think it has the most retarded lyrics ever haha.

Absolute bargain. Would rock it all day long. As listing says, 3x reserve to build. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/S...n-253601856.htm also: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/S...n-252468685.htm

Learn German? LOL awesome vid if you havn't seen the lego edition.Westy: Superette sound pretty mint. DRTDVL: Clutch sound sweet also.

Badass. Heard one of their songs on the Rock a while ago. Album should be amazing.
-
I like quite a lot of harder punk / basically on the verge of metal since I don't like too much hardcore thrash metal, maybe try some good Kiwi music for size: Cobra Khan or Bleeders etcAlso, a little softer, but if you want less screamo and more mean tunes try these, some of my personal faves): Badass #1, APC: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGhBu1sBICw Badass #2, Deftones: (basically the best song ever made)* In before SIRE30 comes and gives me a e-high 5 * Makes me want to start the metal appreciation thread that has been mentioned on here before
-
Yeah as Nick said it is all about weight. My old 316i which I put 51mm Struts in has 4 cyl springs in them. All the 318i race series cars that use the 325i/51mm struts have 4 cyl springs also.

Blindspott, Bullet For My Valentine, Enter Shikari (if you like a little electronica thrown in)? They all have plenty of semi normal singing with no too much screamo. In Flames FTW
