  1. yeah well i mean.. i COULD get to the top, but it just scraped the hell out of my exhaust. my cat is scratched to f**k haha
  2. I notice you are at the mall.. kiss goodbye to getting to the top floor if you put your other springs in. mine was 90mm to the frame in the front (80 or so iirc to the sump) 80mm in the back, and i couldnt get to the top. or damn near anywhere to be honest. theres a point when practicality does eventually kick in haha edit: this was without the MT2 btw. just standard body except a custom lip
  3. Why do you say that? Last year would have been great i think.. Bullet + Pendulum + The Black Seeds + Tiki Tane (in that order of my favs) would be amazing! this year i really only want to see Muse, Dizzy Rascal and Rise Against
  4. many people from this board going? who are you most looking forward to? I cant wait Muse ftmfw!!!!
  5. I like that sedan. the replacement foglight is a cool touch
  6. im in auckland next week actually! But i put in a new loom when i put my uncraked dash in and now pretty much everything works. Should have seen my 316i when i took the dash out of that. was wiring for about 3 head units behind there, and you could turn the headunit on without the key in, and the PO decided to run the cables to the Subwoofers right next to the fuel lines under the back seat. there are some dodgy characters out there! Prerequisite in my case? ;P
  7. knew you would have something to say about my post. Can you explain why my car does that? Ive heard of lots of wierd wiring issues in E30s of seemingly unrelated circuits both dying off the one fuse. My indicators died when my glovebox light shorted out and everything else was fine. I know how to diagnose electrical stuff... ive wired Dads whole 4x4 up, done two years at school of electronics, and am studying Auto Electrical next year
  8. ^^ weird. my cluster is on the same curcuit as my stereo/fan/clock and my lights still worked when all that blew when i did my stereo. E30s are a bit dodgy like that haha
  9. does it blow when you put the fuse in, when you switch on the lights (get someone to watch it as you pull the light switch and see if they can see the flash as the fuse blows) or after the lights have been on a while? all are signs of a short, the first is before the switch, the second two would be after the switch with the first suggesting a constant short, probably at the taillights. and the second one could be a wire dangling/moving around as the car moves and eventually shorting out on another piece of metal FYI the wiring runs along the passengers side of the car next to the subframe/chassis rail then up the back seat wall, into the boot around the left hand lip and the loom splits off into the left and right in the left rear corner of the car. Edit: After rereading your posts, the tail lights are wired independantly thats why one side can blow and the other is fine, and also the instrument cluster is on a different curcuit to the taillights.. are you saying more than one fuse is blown/blowing or not?
  10. Theres a dude on bimmerfest that reckons a Sunroof from a Saab works. never heard of the end result, but ive just asked him so i/we'll see if he replies http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthrea...;highlight=saab
  11. well hes saying he doesn't know the capacity of his engine so premixed is better as it will be 50/50 no matter how much you need
  12. Not to mention its hard to get a 50 50 mix
  13. does your alarm flash your headlights or your indicators? either way i would say theres your problem there did you get your alarm put in "professionally?"
  14. looks like someone snapped them up. Im sure they would clean/polish up alright. If i wasnt so busy i would have and flicked them
  15. Went through my archived Emails yes i have his name will tell you on MSN later
  16. Whats the point of taking it out? You need to replace the struts and trailing arms as the hubs are different i believe. i was going to convert my car to ABS and i needed this so im guessing the opposite way is the same
  17. That looks like the head off my parts 325i. I sold it to a guy not far from me about 8 months ago knowing full well about the head being like that and he said he wanted it for parts anyway. Looks like youve got it now though
  18. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-264259958.htm Surely Hartge didnt deal with Honda? Thought id throw them up someone might be interested. I would if they were 16s
  19. thats on the passenger side. you can have your vice grips back if you use that
  20. Your right it will be a PITA to do. Check this thread and see if you can live with this http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=99892 instead of doing the cable. I would be
  21. I want to do this as well when the M20 comes out
  22. The manual gearstick looks amazingly out of place in such a modern car huh!
  23. Im in freakin wellington do you know how unpredictable the weather is here??? haha. sweet as though
