Hi As the title indicates I am looking for a E30 325e throttle body, I have the 325i throttle body but would prefer the slightly smaller TB for my M10. Thanks Mike

Thank you both. PM'd Mike

M10 block, any condition considered. 1.8 or 2.0 head in good condition Preferably located in the South Island

Does it have a black drivers armrest on the drivers door in good condition? How much for the lip on the boot lid? Thanks Mike

Hi all, I am looking for a black armrest from an E21 drivers side door panel. Must be in good condition. Thanks Mike

Hi Andy I have a set of stock 13" e21 basketweaves if you are interested. This is just a photo i found off the net. They are original bmw. I have the turbines you are looking for but they are the originals for my car so would rather hang on to them. Thanks Mike

Hi. I have a 318i AFM that i am happy to part with, best of all i'm local! It came from a running 85 318i so should be all good. It is currently sitting at my parents in fernside so i can't check the part number but if your engine falls betwen 1983 - 87 then it would ideal. How does $80 sound? Thanks Mike

PM sent. Local Shell and Manual

Yeah if you reread the first post it tells you everything, it's not on trademe yet. If they don't sell through the forum i will then list them. Thanks

I'm an E21 guy so you all know alot more than me But yes I just checked and you are right, the stitching is horizontal.

Hmmmmm interesting. I will do some homework and see if they will fit an e21 without running spacers.Cheers

I will post a photo tomorrow morning of the seats. I will also come up with a price that I am happy with and let you all know. By the way I will also be interested in swapping for some good condition 4x100 low offset wheels. Either 15 or 16", preferably hartge or alpina. Thanks

The front seats are the same, the rear seats are a two person bucket type seat. I will get a photo in the morning and post it for all to see.

I would assume not but hey i guess anything is possible. Not sure about the $1 reserve, will have to sleep on it I still have to decide wether i keep them or not............ The fronts would be sold with the rears, i won't split them as I guarantee i will be left with the fronts

I have in my hot sticky fingers a set of Black leather M3 front and rear seats from an e30. The front seats are in good condition and the backseats in excellent condition. The only black mark against the rear seats is it looks like someone has tried to mod them to fit another car. It's just a bit of foam taken out from the back of the backrest, it has no effect on the seat or comfort at all. I don't really know how much they are worth but i know they are rare so i'm asking $950 or swapping for 15 or 16" low offset alloys (et 20 or less) preferably hartge or alpina Thanks

Hmmm i will bear that in mind, thanks. If i actually manage to work in the same city (and country) as my house i will get stuck into it, however i seem destined to be a traveller! I have just been researching a weber 32/36 for it. they talk about them for 2002 everywhere but can't find much anywhere for a carb 320 (the US seem to have all the injected 320's). Plenty of 40 DCOE sidedrafts though, as cool as they are they may be a bit excessive for what i'm looking at.

That sounds pretty good. I won't be changing diff ratios or anything like that. I will defintiely be rebuilding the head, the valves and guides are past there use by date and i think I will ditch the solex and upgrade to something better. The weber's are sounding pretty good at the moment.

Thanks guys, I'm pretty sure its dog led first. I'm in Aussie at the moment for work and haven't driven the car in nearly 4 years (it's bad I know, but at least i was having fun wandering the globe!) Helpful thoughts though, will have to do a bit of homework, costing and............ a few more hours at work.

Thanks for the reply Jamez. Sorry i should have mentioned this, i would prefer to keep the car relatively standard, and i would prefer not to shell out thousands of dollars. I'm basically just after a bit more acceleration from it I'm not touching the exterior or interior, it will all remain stock. Thanks

Good Afternoon all. I am just after some ideas. I am just about to start overhaulin my E21 4cyl eng (M10 I think you call it). and would like to know what I could do with it to give it a bit more oompph. The car already has the sport 5 spd manual gearbox so it just leaves the eng and suspension. I'm not after top of the line performance, but would like a comfortable ride with reasonable handling and a responsive engine with a bit more power. Any ideas out there? Thanks alot guys Mike
