  1. On the rare occasion that occurs, either me or one of the other mods delete the post. we keep a lot tighter ship than most the pages, but yes some get through the cracks. all posts must have a price, picture and location, in the same way it is asked here. Im surprised you are seeing that Did you check photos from last time etc? But I like cruise type ones too, like you. Come up to the one in early December, I can probably pick you up on my way past Hamilton if you want
  2. Doing Wellington to AKL on Sunday, can meet you just north of Hamilton when i rejoin SH1, you will need to get them to me here in welly tho
  3. think how much quicker you will go without all that water in it though!
  4. have been down that path before too. Tempting to put race stuff in, the reality is, yes it makes it better on the odd track thing, but 95% of the time it is a road car, so thats more important, and just hit the middle (or the left in your case!) a little earlier on the straights
  5. Another thing to remember is a lot of the conversation between members doesnt happen here, though this website was the initial meeting ground for many. To Those that knock the BMW facebook page, yeah, you might be right to a certain degree. but consider this, some people post advise and help because they are trying to help, unlike those that withhold the knowledge, and sit back and watch others try and help, and then complain its crap. You have contributed to it, whether you post or not, and you build or break an enthusiest community in doing so But if you want a friendly place with active founders, and meets with well over 100 cars now, join Euro Car Club, also on Facebook and now with a new forum just launched. There are more BMWs at ECC meets than there ever is at a Bimmersport Meet no matter the location, let alone all the other stuff there. And no its not a young persons thing, just because its on Facebook. You vets that knock it but have never been should come along, it will be the best meet you have been to in NZ, or your money back. Having said that, both of those sites do owe a lot to Bimmersport, without Bimmersport pulling a lot of people together in the first place, neither would have the presence they have. But I prefer to look forward than to look behind. I guess, in summation, as with anything, you get out what you put in, both here and the facebook groups
  6. Looks like a good example for sure, not sure if price is right though, seems a bit much especially for a RHD But more desirable than an E30 M3? to some sure, but in general market, probably not? Checks out, if it is indeed sold new in Hong Kong and brought here by the original owner
  7. Also Graham owns Apex Apparel, is a great guy, doesnt post on here so much now but has contributed a lot to here over the years. His name is 'Apex' Also, not sure who Amber-Leigh (Miss BM) recently used for the Euro Car Club stuff she had made up, but they turned out well and hard wearing too
  8. Just been down this path about 10 times already on this thread and about 300 others here. it leads to the same old people posting the same old stories not to mention all the legal infoetc etc is already in the first post and has been there since 2010 when this thread started. (edit: do have to probably apologise for the tone in previous post, am a bit more bitey tonight than usual. Flatmate drama, time to tell the person to find altenative arrangements I think)
  9. man i get tired of these posts above. probably why i rarely make anything on these and have to subsidise it. cheers. everyone knows they are illegal and the risks acossiated with them. If they arent for you, thats great for you. but dont sh*t all over the thread.
  10. final day gents! would be great to get a few more through or ill be loosing out on this order
  11. ACS kits on the whole are pretty subtle and rounded, though does completely change the look on an E34
  12. Cool, any more orders at all? tell the friends and whanau! this will be the last order before Christmas
  13. think thats whats in mine at the moment, will be whatever Jon from JKSE put in a few years back. just about time for some new ones though, 3 track days havent been kind, will definately need to be changed if i do another track day in it, plenty of meat for the street though. I guess it is more exciting to go fast that to stop fast lol
  14. By Hybrid you mean normal car with ebay stickons?
  15. upgrade all front suspension to 750iL spec stuff, that will be a good start. make sure springs and shocks are good, or go coilovers like i did. front is where all the handling feel comes from, the back not quite so important
  16. if you can PM me a picture, i have one from a 740iL it is most likely the same part
  17. are they steel block vs ally block like M50/M52?
  18. probably make the car slide all over the road which ever way it pleases like a boat in water
  19. saw a 6 speed recently that blew it self to pieces, literally
  20. i think your price is bang on. Now you got me thinking about your car........................
  21. thats a huge jump you always get gains like that from the diesel cars
  22. im not a race guy yet, but I'm pretty sure i have read somewhere solid gearbox mounts but rubber engine mounts are not a good combo, everything needs to be the same
