theres a guy my dad knows somewhere near auckland with one of denny hulmes original can am cars thats gotta be worth sh*t loads i have seen it at his house before but i was young enough to not take note of how special it was

hey guys im trying to sell my honda so i can repay the overdraft that just got me my bmw does anyone know of any car fair type areas in hamilton preferably on sundays or just places were lots of people park up to sell their cars thanks guys

yea im pretty sure im catching it early as its usually not noticable but after being warned how much a failure on these cars can cost ive been on the lookout for anything that could be a hint of anything wrong i will prob get it serviced in the next couple of weeks as im changing jobs so holiday pay coming my way

thanks this is all very helpful i was told it could be quite expensive as they have to do manual adjustments in the gearbox to account for wear in the parts and that takes alot of time. is this true also the reason i want to get it serviced is because if you very slowly increase throttle when stopped just as the torque converter starts to transfer power it shudders slightly under intial acceleration kind of the feeling you get when you have a misfire but as you put a little more power down it comes right

thanks does anyone know how much i would be looking at paying

thanks yes thats what i was looking for although its interesting that it says its a 8 cylinder with 6 valves per cyliner lol not quite a 48 valve V8 even bmw doesnt have the skill for that

i remember at one stage this year there were three good nick 7 series there 2 x 735 and a 740 although now that i need bits for one none to be found of all the pick a parts tga must be the best would have been good if they made one in hamilton but they got refused resource consent

hey guys i have a 1992 750iL the automatic isnt playing up at all but i think its high enough km's to get a full service does anyone a good place in tauranga or hamilton where i can get it serviced and how much will i be looking at paying thanks

wow thats awesome looking

hmmm i cant find anything about a 1992 750iL anyone know the list price on this

yea i have had the same opinion from a few other people so would probably go black and for the fact that its uber hard to find crinkle red paint these days i might get a can of satin black and paint the rest of the plastic like fan shroud etc although i havent had a good look at it it might come up nice with some armorall as was posted earlier the yellow comes from the factory coating was it yellowish from factory ?? or just tarnished that way

hey guys found these 17" semislicks on trademe two are on bmw wheels two plain but being sparsly worn tyres this is a ridiculously low price i would get them but got no free money link

also one of the main problems im facing is the key is one of the spring loaded flick out ones but has been broken so i only got given the metal piece from inside it which is annoying as theres very little piece to hold and leverage is crap can anyone tell me whether i could just replace the plastic piece or would i need a whole new key if i got a new key is a bmw dealership the only place to get them and how much can i expect to pay for one thanks

thanks he seems to have a vast knowledge i was thinking of either cleaning the yellow off and re clear coating them to look like plain aluminium (not polishes) and i was also thinking painting the center plastic cover either crinkle red or black keeping bmw symbols and the other silver pieces

thanks i will get back to you if i need it i want one like the one i got for my honda prelude thats a proper electronic copy where you can click on something in the contents and i goes straight through to its page easyier to resize also but thanks

thanks anyone know where i can get a good repair manual online that i can download

just over $2k im looking at some some bigger mags as these dont do it for me i might ask the guy in auction number #184943986 if he will sell wheels seperatly

thanks i really want to take the intake manifolds off polish them and give them another clear coat so it gets rid of the yellow tarnish and looks as good as it did from factory

here you go hopefully the images come through
