    bimmersport meet on Border Patrol next week is it?
  2. you could make yourown for about $50 for one the sub will fit in, but if you want something tuned etc, you will need to plug some calculations of max dimensions online and get some plans made up from an enthusiest. might cost a wee bit more, but will be best solution or just pay $300 and buy someone elses R and D
  3. thats nothing other than poor driving, i am sorry. every road has side markers. i drive rural all the time

    whoever makes it, iim not buying it after thier publicity stunt last year ruined it. Changed to Vegemite, and couldnt be more content /thread
  5. you should have got Hans to take you up in the truck would have been much faster!
  6. swap pitty pupz and a hoon on the missus? seriosly though, John (e30ftw) and i discussing this on the weekend, stumped why it hasnt sold. all the specs you could want, priced very well. i got my 325i listed for higher, less options, worse colour, non SE, and i have had three come to look at it already.
  7. yeah no matter, i picked up two Clarions head units months ago, Clarion DXZ385USB that tick all the boxes have USB and AUX CD etc everything you need, but most important should look period correct in the dash. but a BMW original would be better! /off topic
  8. was the 2002 driven by a dude balding with glasses?? if so i think i know the car, lots of stuff imported new via BMW for it about 2010, havent been in touch with the guy since then.
  9. god damn i was gunna post before but didnt coz i cant pick up lol. my cabby needs to get the new sony out of it, looks ugly
  10. send video in anyways, they might be able to clean up the video and get the plate
  11. Yep will do a video at some stage i did take one but the sound doesnt really come through on my iphone ill grab a digital camera from work in the next day or so. fault codes off all modules yep and adaptions yes, throttle position no, although that would probably explain why just today it has come up with throttle potentimetor error or something along those lines! Didnt think of that Cheers Glenn!
  12. Hey guys got an E38 728i here doing my head in! Has the M52TUB28 engine, the dual vanos that seems to more closely resemble the M54 than the M52! Anyways. Engine makes a popping sound, sounds just like a pop corn machine. usually will keep running until i turn it off, sometimes just dies on its own. Have throughly checked for vacuum leaks and all seems to be okay. Have replaced the oil separator system anyways, just to be sure. common problem on this engine. Intake boots are new also. Have checked coils, two had been "repaired" at some point so fitted two brand new ones. haven't replaced plugs, they look to be in good shape, i guess thats the next step. DME was throwing intake cam sensor code so replaced that after checking out the sensor yep definitely broken. Revs do not climb and negligible engine change when i both press on the accelerator and/or have MAF unplugged Any assistance where to go from here would be great! Cheers Andy
  13. ran the VIN, no LSD BJ49041 http://www.bmwarchive.org/vin/bmw-vin-decoder.html
  14. must be enough of you to warrent getting some molds made up, there are heaps of these threads i seen last couple months. Wouldnt mind fitting one on the compact either.
  15. very unlikely, and i agree. money would be better spent on grippier tyres that work ALL the time. my e30 325i/5 doesnt evenbreak a wheel free the contis stick well
  16. totally agree. and if the care underneath is the same as what it looks like, should be no trouble. otherwise too many question marks! I would think its got to be 7-8k or so if it is a genuine M325i, if just kitted maybe the same maybe a bit less?? the motor should help shift it i would have thought
  17. thats a bloody big shopping list for $1000. dreams are free i guess lol
  18. that engine is very rare to find here in a BMW, have you tried a Land Rover wrecker/parts crwod here? the engine was also used in the older 2.5L Diesels
  19. not sure if 12k but Martins was available and still is as far as i know, and as presentable as this oen
  20. try putting down the whiskey
  21. you have a very long shopping list, ya still looking to buy the parts we have been discussing too?
  22. interesting about the doors, i though everything was stripped back, cardboard floor even etc/
  23. is that agreed value??????? make sure you definately get it in writing that the payout amount and then go write it off lol
