hmm screen should be on all the time except when car is off, with the backlight coming on when you turn on headlights. I have a couple of computers here i can send if you want, just send me a PM

is it dark blue? saw one twice today, once heading south on the Porirua motorway, and once one Petone Esplinade. so much yum

upload to an external site and then post the link back to here. You are supposed to be able to upload directly, but i couldnt get it to work on the old site before we updated, and havent tried on this new site.

some of the offices i go into are like stepping off the plane in Barbados. was in one Monday and they had it set at 24 degrees

I have a peaky blinders type flat cap, pays me dividends on Tinder. Unfortunately no gold chain or grillzz i better post a pick up of mine one of these days

a manual 2L is not too bad, but auto 2L is the worst E30. you got all the fuel consumption and weight of the 325i with the go of a 318i pulling all that extra weight.

oh so they are chip claims, not dyno proof, that changes the story some what. I had a chip in my old E30, didnt notice any difference what so ever. and there is a video on MCM on youtube about them, just some wires and a resistor to trick OEM sensor or something like that.

i have 20s on my E38, 10.5 on the back and 9 on the front from memory. Looks very cool, but yes you do need to drive accordingly, avoiding potholes etc.

yeah youd think so but not in my experience. just give it a few more days bud. just the risks etc of buying over seas. you savecash, but you have this sort of thing.

sounds like UPS not USPS. UPS New Zealand is delivered by Fliway iirc

yep give it another week before getting too serious, I often get the parcel a day or two before it registers on USPS website so its a bit delayed. i would say you will be getting a bill in the mail 1 week = 2 days processing, couple of days to prepare an invoice, couple of days invoice in the post.... and to top it off NZ post only deliver 3 days a week now too the customer service person is just reading from their manual, what he/she is saying is most often not the case. Customs arent a freight company and dont have scan tools to integrate into tracking system of every single freight company in the world.

both the B23 and B25 have no balls below 4000rpm so thats not a reason to rule a b23 out

starting early haha

will pm

yep would say about 10ish too would be well worth getting the chain guides done at this point if they havent been done already, or at least open it up for a look, pretty common failure on the E38/E39 V8

think you will find its an E34, hard to tell under all that i know hahaha

Shame about it being a poverty pack, US spec Eta. i wonder if the perfume is good enough to say you own it, but doesnt really turn any heads as well.

where was the oil getting out? perhaps oil is getting in the cylinders and being burned, stop leak just has a more noticeable colour??

Sold a couple cars in the last week, so down to only 6 BMWs in the drive and my van, never seen it so empty! E30 325i Cabby E36 Compact E34 V12 Touring E36 325i/5 E38 728i E30 318i HoeAce

how does the RPM sit at 100 with the auto diff? probably over revving a wee bit?

i agree. regardless of the body kit, an M40 Auto doesnt really appeal to an enthusiest, so you can only get better by swapping the engine. Im not super super clued up on the E30 AC Schnitzer catalouge, only things i can spot that are missing are the ACS wing mirrors and the ACS steering wheel. I have had 3x E34 525i's, all with the old M20 engine, dressed up with those bodykits, all of them Jap imports, so certainly not uncommon to be dressed at Japanese dealers it seems There are a number of cars here not just E30s that are just stock cars with AC Schnitzer stuff put on them, including one of my own.

i use a teaspoon and my hand.

and two decent car shows to watch!

thats nice! wheels want changing to something a bit smaller, looks like a matchbox car on those! but other than that.,....

true. i run BMW type V12 badge on my E34 Touring, but no other badges.
