There is one in Hamilton. The number plate is GT NAN. An old lady with a lead foot drives it (and she really does drive it). It is awesome to see. Cheers

The twice I have needed to take my car to a mechanic since I have been in Auckland I have taken it there. There service was very good, and their price reasonable. I would recommend them. Cheers

mine uses about 10l/100km's as well.

If I have made any mistakes, then let me know. Andrew, make this a sticky if you want. Cheers

I am running a 3.73 non LSD. I am pretty sure that an auto 320i should have a 4.10 ratio. What kind of revs are you doing at 100km/h on a flat road with a 4.45 diff? Cheers
-
Gus I'll take it. Just let me know how much you want. Cheers
-
Welcome, make yourself at home. Cheers
-
Are you for real?What tyres did you get? Cheers
-
Retro Products in Ponsonby, Auckland. They are the Remus importers in NZ. Cheers

James Welcome back. Glad you have seen the light. Cheers

Bloody hell I must have been pissed when I got home after watching the rugby last night. I don't even remember typing this (or other messaged I wrote at the time).Good to see I can still make some sense when a bit "under the weather". Cheers
-
I would, but I have no-where to keep it. Living in an inner city terraced house with a two car garage and no other parking has its downsides!!! Cheers

Injectors are a very rare problem for the E30 - as orginally thought Gus has an ECU problem - well a problem with the information to the ECU. The rpm sensor has a short circuit and the CAS has too much resistance. So replace them and gus' car will be sweet. The point I was demonstrate was that even though the symptoms can appear to be one thing, it can as easily be something else causing the problem.I was just using the case I had of the leaking injectors as an example. Lets hope you have it sorted now Gus, and that you can have some trouble free motoring. Cheers

Reiger widebody kit is Okay.. ish. Glenn has a 300 hp E30 (seriously dude I don't think you'll make a 400hp one) and his car handles it fine. What the hell would you want a 400rwhp E30 for anyway. It would be seriously overpowered.A car as small as an E30 does not need 400rwhp (unless it is a proper racing car). Cheers
-
David's surname is Brace, not Bracewell.It would be interesting to see the handling difference between your set up, and Davids too. I guess we'll see the results of your hard work at Pukekohe in August. I am resigned to being a dot in your rear view mirror. Cheers

Include me too, bugger it, they could be good for a laugh. Cheers

Blair is right, you are probably better off building up a better general tool set buying tools from Repco or the like. If you want let me know, I'll give you a list of what should be located in the BMW tool kit, so you can make your own, Buying from the Dealer will probably cost you a lot more. Cheers

It was great to see the All lacks giving the Poms a good old caning tonight. I thought it was a great game, one in which the All Blacks played very well. Also good (from a personal view) to see the two starting Waikato players (Robinson and Gibbes) playing great games and flying the flag for the mighty Mooloo men. Cheers
-
RyanMy thoughts exactly. Cheers
-
Looks more like something Shelley would write, IMO, B. The thought never crossed my mind!!! Nothing would surprise me. Cheers
-
I know that this is old news now, but if someone has an M20B25 engine for sale, I am assuming that they have an ECU to match. I'll take the ECU. Cheers
-
If anybody needs me too, I'll re-type this post in proper English and use the correct spelling.Cheers

Gus Just get it looked at by a professional, then you should get it fixed once and for all. When mine had leaking injectors, SD Euro couldn't tell when the car was warm, so I had to leave it with them so they could drive it when it was cold and diagnose the problem. In the end they plugged it into a diagnostic computer which identified the problem (prior to that they had assumed it was AFM related). Cheers

Yes, welcome. I'm sure you will find most of us a good friendly bunch, that can help you out when you need it (and hopefully you can help us when we need it) Show us a pic of your custom air intake. Cheers
