    M3 engines

    actually thinking about it some more you probably would be better off with NZ M5x over the US engine by the time you take shipping into consideration. I didnt take that into acount. Still though, Euro S50s are, imho, over priced for what they are. id be surprised if equivelent power cant be had for half that, and bolted into the car ready to go with suspension and brakes for about the same or not much more. Same here, just going of figures on paper and what ive read

    hard out. seriously though, id pay up to 5 or 6k for one (obviously im not going to find one for that), more than that and it just becomes extra buck for no extra bang. may as well spend the rest of that on an Mxx instead and get it to go as good if not better, or import one of the US-Spec ones, or look towards our Japanese brothers
  4. probably about on par with said E30 tbh. lol
  5. it may actually have bullet proof glass.. it was an option on E38s, though whether that extends to the 7228i i dont know.
  6. i thought about that after i wrote it maybe i shouldnt have said that lol. i said it only because i wondered who it was if it was someone on here, not to brag or anything. and no it was flat ha.
  7. raced someone in an E30 on saturday night, plate was N_#### and had a loud and obnoxious exhaust. Was in the Volvo, didnt seem to impressed that i managed to keep up with them haha
  8. commit a sustained loss of traction Happy Birthday mate
  9. above, or sways if the above has already been done. seems to be a matter of opinion on this forum though..

    Oops

    never seen the point in being so low. the above is true to an extent, but 100mm is the lowest i want to ever be on NZ roads. I used to be 70mm in the back on compressed superlows, and the 80ish in the front, before i raised it again 2 weeks later. imo a car still has to be practicle enough and give you the enjoyment of driving without having to look for ~50mm increases in the height of the road.
  11. put another resonator in. what kind of muffler is the rear one?
  12. ahh yip. you hear a lot of people claiming to be a storeman when they really just stack xd. wish we had a forklift :/ our store is too small though, we dont need one.
  13. was looking at an escudo/vitara before i brought the volvo. those are extremely capable off roading which is what id do with it!
  14. never heard of a part time storeman.. do you do the invoicing and receiving and whatnot, or is this a fancy name for a shelf filler? Also work at a NW, different one though. Full time in the storeroom as both a storeman and shelf filler, also do checkouts and produce. Basically just cover sickness, annual leave etc but always 45+ hours a week. gap year ftw Plan A this year was to go to Weltec but they lost my application and it was too late by the time i found out. Looking to leave NW soon though hopefully.
  15. +2, though not much factory black trim on my E30 anymore though
  16. possibly. I have some billysports now that im running anyway. Got to send the H&Rs back
  17. May consider a trade for an unmolested genuine rear conditional on that ones not a dogs breakfast and the cash my way is right, if anyone who wants that wants to delete the tow bar
  18. Do it! never been a fan of the current rims really either tbh
  19. recent thread here (even with that car as referance): http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index....showtopic=30390 ...if your willing to skip past the offtopic bullshit.
