  1. There is a thermal switch somewhere that activates them.
  2. http://m3forum.net/m3forum/showthread.php?t=263731 I don't think a PCV valve would cause the kind of issues stated. Ring Glenn and have your car booked in.
  3. My windscreen arrived today... Except it was dropped in transit.. f**k lol.
  4. I went there in 2011, was AWESOME. except it rained most of the time haha. and there were typical auzzie bogans shining over their falcodores.
  5. It's safety paint, gives people even less reason to cut me off.
  6. Well I plastidipped my wheels FLURO ORANGE for lulz hahaha
  7. Ah, I did email them and they reckoned it would work. but I decided to go OBD1 for simplicity that, and I have a Single Vanos engine.
  8. http://www.racersmarket.net/index.php?page...t&Itemid=93 zing. The other thing to is you could potentially make EWSII work.. it has been done. Not for me however, I'm not taking that route on.
  9. Haha that is baaaad. I might just have to pop into smith and smith and see.
  10. http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=164030 here, that's for the superior bentley. I have all the BMW Wiring Diagrams.. I also have copies of the Haynes and Bentley on my hard drive. http://www.armchair.mb.ca/~dave/BMW/e30/ there is the wiring diagram links edit * Here's more links http://www.bimmerwerkz.com/forum/3-series-...vice-67616.html
  11. M20's are always noisy, ticktickticktickticktick... that means the valves are working... In my experience with M20s I guess that the rockers, cams and the valves themselves wear out. basically just adjust the valves and that's really it. Best way to fix it is to remove the boat anchor and install an M5x
  12. ... you kind of can't when your windscreen has a f**king massive unwarrantable crack in it... I like this idea. I've heard of people doing this, but nobody particularly elaborated!
  13. http://realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=...hg=51&fg=05 Parts 3 and 2 Genuine is out of the question at $225 a side. May even just have to settle for a good used set, mine are stuffed.
  14. hahahahahahahahah SAP is the biggest joke since the beginning of ordering systems. I'm waiting on a windscreen. They told me at the dealer the other week they had just started clearing this backlog after a big system update in the fatherland.
  15. Left it at Cooke Howlison BMW for a new Windscreen >.<
  16. Yeah my silly friend bought the car for $2000 thinking he had a steal... he was lucky to get $500 for it since it owed thousands in RUC (it was like 5k or something over all??!)
  17. Definitely Paul.. Genuine from Cookies probably isn't that much more though. +1 for waterpump For running cold, probably is the thermostat. my E34 (same engine) was exactly like this when I got it, someone had pried the thermostat open like a typical ignorant kiwi. Being a 1992 I assume it has a metal thermostat housing too anyway, so no need to get the "better" metal one.
  18. Wrong, RUC Charges are not the registered owners responsibility... If you buy a car out of RUC you have to pay in full. Mate bought a Shitsan Laurel thinking this, and It's 70,000 out of RUC. hahaha. http://www.nzta.govt.nz/vehicle/registrati...c/overview.html I'd be asking Turners if they are going to pay for it.
  19. E30 Touring at BK at 5:30am. Right behind me in the drive-thru
  20. Paul is awesome. Particularly awesome that he lives in Dunedin. I think he's still on Holiday right now though. Also, some Genuine parts aren't that expensive. I prefer to use Genuine when I can.
  21. Why do I find this quote so f**king funny?
  22. It's exactly the same as you pressing in the brake pedal except you're not using the brake pedal to make the car not move Usually you put the car into Neutral and put the parking brake on.. (I hate the car stopping against the "park lock")
  23. Certainly can. Just unplug the CD Stacker. and you'll see what I mean You can also change the amplifier and speakers to more quality units to have the best of both worlds.
  24. There was also a Kiwi new Blue E39 540i Touring but it had been kiwi'd all it's life. (was like 6k too) Had crappy woodgrain, black leather. I think it was an "ASE" was dirty dirty and dirty stone chipped to buggery ect. but would have been awesome if someone gave it some love

    e34 540i

    I got sick of trying to find a fan shroud, and just converted the car to electric. as without the fan shroud the mechanical fan won't work 100%. and it's about the same price as a hub unit as to convert to electric.
