  1. Sweet, I'll be doing it today. I'll post some before and after pics, but I don't think you will see any difference.
  2. Does anyone know how much lower a E30 325i sits on mtech suspension vs standard suspension? The reason I ask is that I bought a bilstein streetline suspension kit while I was in the uk and brought it back with me as I was intending to buy a E30 325 when I got home. Now the car I have bought has already got the mtech suspension in it and the shocks are a bit tired. So do I change the shocks and springs or just the shocks as I don't want it sitting any higher. The kit I bought lowers the std suspension height by -40mm. Any thoughts? Or do I just put it all in and see what height it is at?
  3. Thinking of doing this on the E30 as it is cracked all over the place. Can you buy new ones? How long does it take? Also what is the best way to stop it from cracking again?
  4. Both my old pre F/L and my F/L had this feature. Have a look at this site, there is an article under the electrical section. www.bimmerdiy.com/e30
  5. Hi, Nice car quite similar to my one, I am after a towbar for my car and noticed this car has one that goes under the rear mtech2 kit, do you know if this a standard towbar? Do you know of any for sale? As I really don't want to cut a hole in my kit. Good luck with the sale!! Cheers
  6. Go before show, the buzz will last longer!!

    Mtech one

    Fair enough, I'm a Mtech 2 fan but still like the Mtech 1. I'll keep an eye out for ya down this way. I'm guessing you would want a black one?
  8. Yeah, royal blue metallic, looks kind of purple in some lights. Taking it up to Nelson this weekend, so will be the first decent drive I have had in it. Interesting to see how it goes on gas as it is a bit thirsty around town (14L/100kms) I plan to keep this for a few years, so I will be tidying it up. May get it resprayed at some stage. Here' the ass pic...
  9. Missing head unit (coming this week), under steering column panel and has of course got the usual cracked dash...
  10. Needs the front end resprayed...
  11. This is the one that was on Trademe with the 2.8L engine. (Juzzie Wuzzies old car I think?) Goes well, still needs some tidying.

    FS: E28 M5

    This one is really out of focus but you might be able to make out a bit. It say's no. 17 out of one hundred and something RHD models made. The car is close to mint ie no stone chips, no rips in seats, not even a crack in the dash, straight as. Bad bits Cracked foglights, welded/patched exhaust, seats a bit worn, boot carpet/lining a bit tired,

    Some piccys, sorry about the quality as I used the CRAP Dick Smith's camera from work. Also the car was tucked into a corner so it made it a bit tricky. Enough excuses........

    It's a RHD. Looked very tidy as you would expect being in Fazazz.

    E28 M5, 1986, diamond schartz, very tidy exterior and tidy interior (for an 86) very original and well looked after. Imported from Hong Kong in 1999. It is for sale in the Fazazz shop in Christchurch. I think the price was $23995. Anyone on here tempted? Mmmm.............286bhp!
  20. I haved to agree, I think your stopwatch or speedo must be out!! I was happy with a 7 sec 0-100km in my car which has a 2.8 engine with a claimed 210bhp!! If you want to back up your claims you better run the quarter mile and then impress us with your printed time.
