  1. i suppose OAPs are the only ones that buy Renaults so it makes sense
  2. only way to clean inside of headlights is to dismantly i need to do it too, some how a moth or fly or maybe a leaf has got inside my left low beam on my E30, really wierd
  3. A mate of mine asked me last night about fuel injectors. I didn't know the answer to the question and would like to know. If you have stock injectors, and upgrade to ones that flow more (lets assume supporting fuel pump too) but otherwise leave the engine stock, what happens? will the engine run richer because it flows x% more fuel? more/less power? btw: This would be on a EFI car with no oxygen sensor.
  4. you could even buy my little pony seat covers for it
  5. yep have often thought about picking one up. Not many in manual strangely (for a sports car). Really think the designers could have put a little more effort into the rear end around the bumper
  6. not really all BMWs check the inside rear tyres, especially if lowered. I pulled a set off my E34 6 months ago, looked easily WOFable on the outside 3mm or more of tread, but inside just hitting the canvas, good job i took the wheels off for a different job and spotted it
  7. you have that looking really nice mate well done! fitted new struts in the boot of the E30 Cab, just one strut enough to make it stay open, two new struts and its just like the automatic opening like late model BMWs and Mercs once you press the button haha (big thanks to John once again for sorting them for me)
  8. You dont need to rebalance of align if you do that. That said, would I do it? No. your front tyres are the ones you use to stop and turn, id rather have the maximum amount of tread i can thanks. plus you will just end up with 4 tyres with bald inner shoulders, then what do you do
  9. E31 V12 in Karori, plate was VESPAx something. Member?
  10. lol on an 80 litre tank im spluttering coming down the Auckland side of the bombays. But i dont smell like Diesel
  11. i guess they know there is no way JGBMW is going to make a sale or booking out of it, so why bother
  12. that photo looks a lot like an E34 hence why i questioned it, I have 17s on my E34 and that photo has more sidewall than that. but i look again and the indicator is part of the trim strip so cant be.
  13. is Jeff Gray likely to have the service records when it was Shelly? or long gone now?
  14. so must be 2006-2007 they changed, because there is the 2nd gen M6 and also spotted an E90, which both started in 2005 iirc, and i brought my first BMW in March 2008 and they were definitely Jeff Gray by then in Kaiwharawhara.
  15. I was too young to remember slash wasnt into cars back then, anyone know where Shelly BMW used to be? And what year they were brought out or merged etc to become Jeff Gray BMW? Or any other info about them? Cheers, Andy
  16. dont think they are 18's, look like 15s or 16s to me?
  17. yep, have done this a few times now. Last time i was in at JKSE (username the same) maybe 6 months ago he had a fiberglass version of the sides, maybe the bumpers too?? wouldnt be so bad because you could modify it to suit and not worry about wrecking a genuine one. Whether its still there i dont know..? front and rear kits will be no problem, same as sedan and coupe.
  18. what about an E34 Touring?? (of the standard 525i variety) much roomier than both E30 and E36
  19. great, looking forward to seeing it, I have seen many swaps over the years, but always interested in the hub location. Very often people will post pictures before and after both with the wheels attached, so the wheel is sticking further out, is it because of a lower offset on the new wheel, or the hub moved further out, or the negative of either cancelled by the other.
  20. are the Evo M3 arms longer than the factory E30 arms?
