Monday morning bump, Start price of $7000, Reserve of $7500, open to offers. Trademe

Also keen, need a front lip for the 850i

Happy Birthday from James and the team.

I just used a long bolt, works fine.

Pics of my car when testing different lip sizes on the rear. Gives an idea of size, I'm going for 2.5" lips when i get round to doing the 16's (my guards are rolled to the max)

yea

Took it out for a few cruizy/testing laps this evening, am sitting round the 1:17 mark. Also found the powersteering fluid leaking onto the front left which would explain a bit of understeer on the right handers . Will probably remove the pump and just run the rack by itself. On a more worrying note I noticed it is sometimes crunching into 3rd on the downchange, first time I thought maybe it was me not putting my foot down but I was making sure every time after and it was still doing it. Anyone know the speed difference between running slicks vs wets in the dry? Both are dunlop V8 tires and Im guessing its about 2 seconds difference in pace?

Do want, would it be worth any more than 10k?

Completely different car, is a dream to drive now and in some places its getting a whole extra gear. Have done the following since last going on the track.... Revalved Rear shocks Added rear sway bar Rebuilt Diff Added spacers to add front camber Added E36 M3 evo Control arms Fixed oil leaks Fixed intake leaks Spaced out rear swing to stop it slagging Added front splitter Added front lip Fixed the play in shifter Lowered the front Also put the wets on just for the time being until the slicks are ready.

Chuck Norris only has one hand, The upper hand.

made of plywood, used bolts with big washers either side. The splitter cost $10 to make so if it does break its not the end of the world

Got this from email from "NZ Transport Agency" with the the subject "MH021 Your NZTA account action is needed" Thought it was pretty suspect then I found the link takes you to one of those "teawhr.hahra.freescammererhosting.com" kind of websites so just be aware.

Front lip added and my first try at making a splitter, Not sure how long the splitter will last but it looks good.

Sheep 1 - 0.191 Sheep 2 - 0.125 Sheep 3 - 0.123 Sheep 4 - 0.191 Sheep 5 - 0.128 Average 0.1516 I think the color ones are better, can get sub 0.1 in them, What did you get Brian?

I got one in the garage that was a good runner, out of a 1984 318i manual, i will take what ever you have to offer

its a Hampton Downs organized trackday, link!

Yeah it was a weird one because it would only happen on the track. It was fine on the dyno and when idling, but as soon as you took it round the track with sustained load I guess thats when the head started to move round and create the problem.

Thanks for all the info, think i'll go with washers and new bolts, looking on realoem they are M12x20 Bolts that need to be replaced. Do I ask for a ~M12x25 bolt at the shop? What did you guys use?
