  1. Yeah, that was the next plan, just thought someone here might know someone/thing... always pays to check !
  2. wonder if they do the same price all over NZthere's one in porirua... hmmm cheers, will ring them tomorrow
  3. Where did ya get them from? what sort of $$
  4. Yeah, I've got aftermarket springs, but they've sagged a tad.. just enough to make them loose when hoisted Just want shorter shocks so they don't over-extend.
  5. Anyone know where to get some in NZ? welly region even? the usual, failed wof due to spring sag, put spare struts in but it looks like a 4wd!
  6. Good stuff Ray, I haven't been on a pc in months and saw that and thought "bimmersport might have a way of getting my spare rims to the dude." Beaten to it!
  7. There was actually a kit on tardme about 2 years ago to set up a business doing this... I always hoped someone local would buy it so I could've got my 71 merc tyres done. Looked like a cross between a bench grinder and a guard-lip roller. And the price of the rubber paint... Big money.
  8. Are they the ones where they grind the sidewall and then apply a rubber "paint"?
  9. I used 2 jigsaw blades to release mine. Just poppped them down the sides.
  10. Good ep... I think ferrari wanted him to be the stig as he's the only one they'd let drive the fxx
  11. The copper ring? On earlier cars it was the connection between the wheel and column for the horn. Couldn't run a wire up there if you're turning the wheel all the time! On yours its either horn or airbag... probably the horn. Cars have done it that way for frickin ages. Not sure what they use for the airbag (never had an airbag car myself so no need to pull the wheel off) btw, the e34 section of bimmerforums has that fix... and many others!
  12. +1I want a T-shirt! Apparently the buyer has paid already!
  13. AAWWWW... so sad. Wish I had the money because that's a beautiful colour on an e34 good luck with the sale! edit: where did you get the precut tints from and are they any good?
  14. So you got it sussed now obviously? (Mine kept saying "trailer light" for a month and I thought it was because of aftermarket wiring. Turned out to be a bloody fuse in the trailer light module... this thing has bloody fuses everywhere!)
  15. Do e38 wheels have the same hub bore as e39 or e34/e32?
  16. I'll ring you for those alpina styles on sunday... after I win lotto.
  17. From e34 bentley manual From the outside looking at mine.Did your dash tell you it was out?
  18. Lol... I get that for spending hours on the road and copping it all the time I can't honestly say I have ever seen any place check fogs for alignment and previous employment, I spent about 10 hours a week at VTNZ (*&*#^%%)
  19. Aimed????... Every POS that drives with them on (subarus, silvias, mitsis, e30s etc) never have had them aimed... Most haven't been aimed in at least 15 years! Especially if some tard has just "fitted this intercooler, yo"Ever kerbed your spoiler? Then your f*ckin fogs are probably lookin for possums I get the f*ckin things in my eyes all the time and I drive a friggin truck! They are NOT cool, they make you look like a wannabe.. why not get neons while you're at it... tossas Hate any fogs. unless it's actually foggy. Can't wait for the cops to have a blitz on this. That's just me tho.
  20. My old car after driving 15-20ks to work one morning... and I live 200 metres from the beach so it wasn't snow!

    lol... I bought a box at the last moment about 5 years ago for the mrs on valentines day... It was full of weevils (sp?) from the shop they came from apparently. Place got closed down and fumigated! Had to send the box to cadbury and they sent us some back. The mrs wouldn't touch them! I'm a cherry ripe and flake fan tho! Best mates father-in-law worked for cadbury in oz. Had heaps then!
