    Carbon Fibre

    Would be very keen if ya could make one up for a e46 ...
  5. just on a side note ... its costs $2500 to leather all your seats, panels and trim. and thats with the highest qaulity leather your can get too
  6. heh .... seriously .. the handling on a Ti is awesome ... I would go with just lowering coils to start with ... and maybe thinking of coil-overs later on ... but you will get great benefits from just a set of nice springs .. and a front and rear cross brace. If you get new wheels .. make sure (due to the shorter wheel base) you stick with a non staggered setup (make sure all 4 wheels are the same width alround (225 max I think ?) as anything else will just kill that buetiful 48/52 weight split you'll have.
  7. Am looking later this year / early next year on getting an ESS suprcharger unit (the 8psi model) http://www.esstuning.com/default.asp?c=sho...subcat2=114&id= It will run around 8PSI and be good for 325HP (DIN) aliluya I know you brother use to run an ESS one on his 330, How did he get on with the octane ratings ? In NZ we have 98 (RON) (which is what I put in anyways), they recommend a abolute minimum of 95 (RON) octane ( to prevent detonation) How did your brother get on with the aussie fuels ... also now that hes running 400kw hows he getting on ? I take it you turbo guys have lowered your compression to compensate ? I will be keeping the internals stock. cheers

    errr .. why would he let the vanos go ?Its costs around $400 to service every 80k-100k
  11. Personally I think now it looks like a cheap Toyota Soarer or something nissan would do for the jap market .. I'm not a fan of after thoughts.
  12. A guy in AK that makes em something a came across a little while ago http://www.frantik.co.nz/products.htm

    New here

    Hey welcome .. RE: the mags your looking at, they should fit it A/ Obviously you need the correct stud pattern and B/ You look to the correct offset for you car (not sure what the offset on a e36 compac is these days ... Because of your short wheel base I wouldn't go stagged as it will adversly effect your handling around corners. 17x7's on 215's :thumb: will look great

    I stand highly corrected after following your links Very nice vehicle indeed ... but I cant help wonder how useless that car will be in a lot of counrties .. you would want to park it with those gullwing doors .. Im thinking it'll be for the american market only .. As the germans are not really into that sh*t ...
  17. If your into qaulity .. listening to your music broadcast over radio signal is the worst way. Yes mp3 has lossey compression. However Ipod support apples Lossless compression format .. so you get the best of both worlds, no frequency loss and maximism space. (just use Itunes on ya PC/Mac and your set)For me .. I'll be installing the alpine unit as my car is a 2k1 (my e46 isnt compatible with the BMW Ipod inteface) found this out after doing all the research :/ ok the Doc for installing the Ipod (BTW these kits come with no instructions (these are those instructions the dealership has) http://dc.nzbattlefield.com/images/hostedi...structions1.jpg http://dc.nzbattlefield.com/images/hostedi...structions2.jpg http://dc.nzbattlefield.com/images/hostedi...structions3.jpg http://dc.nzbattlefield.com/images/hostedi...structions4.jpg http://dc.nzbattlefield.com/images/hostedi...structions5.jpg http://dc.nzbattlefield.com/images/hostedi...structions6.jpg and the DYI for the dicky plug http://dc.nzbattlefield.com/images/hostedi...odconverter.doc hope that helps
  18. no probs man CAMBus is a standard adpoted by the automotive industry its basically a twin-pair serial communications standard ... its what your ECU readers use to talk to the car computer etc etc ... BMW use it to communicate with everything in the car, The US Nav system uses it to communicate with the box in the boot (trunk ) and the CD / DVD changer. You can do things like change whats displayed on the CD player LCD etc etc
  19. It only works with the e46 3 series (02 onwards), z4, new 5, new 7, new 6, X series and new 1. Its to do with the BMW CAMBus system .. which im finding you can do more and more with ... I have all the info at home .. ill host it and post it when I get home tonight ..

    Ruined E36?

    The fast and furious did nothing for the automotive industry ... this is a prime example.
