hybrid

and usually the rear sway bar too ... which is a bitch to get back on yourself without a hoist ... 2 people and a jack + axel stands its sweet .. but it requires guiding the sway links back on... and jacking the trailing arm back up.anyways, its easy to do.

congrats .... they look awesome.

wtf ?

Shudder causes. Un balanaced wheels warped / buckled wheel control arm bushes or control arm pivot joints worn Now for the less common ones Hub centric wheel bore is slightly too big for hub. You will need hub rings to solve this. I had this problem once on one of my cars. faulty un balanced tire (very rare manufacturing fault) unbalanced drive shaft drive shaft hanger bearing

That car was destroyed a few years a go unfortunitly.

happy birthday

yeah its come up really good, the whole engine bay has. Would love to start pulling alloy bits of and getting them chemically cleaned but yeah, time = 0 .. will be detailing the outside tomorrow. This will end my 1 week e30 cleaning mission. I added a new goody inside too .. nothing major but youll can wait till the Dec issue comes out

Seriously one of the crappiest jobs you could hope to do on an e30. Now to work out how to remove a few KGs of spent KY like substance from my garage. before after

happy birthday man .... late wishes

cause everyone needs time off once and a while. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-4J8Yh_QOM...player_embedded

Yeah, dont have anyone to give me a hand pulling the thing off unfortunitly .. all good, will pick up some prepsol tomorrow .. the desolvited work pretty good, however its hard to apply through the small spray nozzle.

Love the interior.... black oynx ftw time for a 16:9 satnav upgrade.

This suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks :/

nice end a good day in the workshop.

cleaned the e30 engine bay with a tooth brush... was painful but worth it.

err wheres our pics!! ?

That black e30 m3 is pussytamer's car. Hes lives in the bays / shaore area.

I removed and blanked off the emmissions pump. Not sure if that did anything. Its stock tuned .. I think its more to do with my driving.

hmmm I used $80 worth of 98 over 230ks ... pretty sh*t really. its _drinks_ petrol even with a few parps and being sedate for most of it.

Waipu cove, take highway 16 up then along 1 then cut across to mangawhai then up. Can take state highway back. Thats about 2-3 hours ... Im looking at doing a Kaiwi lakes mission .. however Im still testing the range (lack of) of the e30

do it man ... with help from the boys should do a ITB conversion too. doesnt have to be BMW ones.

MPEG4 is just the transport layer, you also need the H264 decoding codec running. This is what makes NZ and Norway specail ... a few other countries have adopted this new standard too but for the most part, everyones on MPEG2 Hence the lack of DVB-T devices availible on the market. Ive been looking at MPEG4/H264 12volt recievers from china, the only thing I would love is if you could somehow remotely control them. That way you could write an IBUS translator to RS232 from the ibus network then translate to the digital receiver ... If someone was really clever they whole write a control interface for the unit similar to the way the intravee II system works. You would need a MKIV or MKIII nav computer to make this all work I would say as you would pull the analogue tv module which drives the graphics normally. /switches off brain Dear Jochen, please with your vast expertise in the TV industry and IBUS knowledge build a MPEG2/4/H264 unit for BMW IBUS thanks, your friend Josh

Hmm yeah average ... looked to make up a bunch of excuses not to go over 180 in the m3 including backing off on the throttle a few times. ham

unco kids on bikes .... ftl
