    Old bmw, doesn't take much these days Steve. Someone on facey were parting out a mint e28 that had minor frontal damage, needed new bumper, valance and maybe grill and lights and that was a write off. Such a waste of a car. Gutted as
  3. Nope, that's the ssr colours. No idea how they can use it without BMW having a winge
  4. Nah just gave it a good clean with degreaser. Underside was oily as! Might run the buff over it before it goes back in tho haha!
  5. Seems like I've been dominating this thread lately... To many slackers round here/ non broken bmws. Right! So this weekend, put new HnR sport springs in the m3, new rear slotted rotors, waiting on correct fronts to come. new bushes for clutch and brake pedals so no more slop, FINALLY!!!!!!!! Finished sanding the other style 5s and have been picked up for professional polishing at $30 a wheel so can't complain with that! Also part way through vanos rebuild, vanos unit is all done bar the Teflon seal on the exhaust side that pinched and cut the side off while going in, ughhh! Waiting to hear from beisan about a replacement. Tomorrow night will be rattle repair as shafts are quite sloppy but can only go so far as forgot to order diaphragms and plates from the stealer so that's tomorrow mornings job. Beat that!!!!
  6. My daily does 20L/100km. Think I'd be better dailying the M3 haha!
  7. I run castrol 10w60 in my 3.2l as it needs the thinker viscosity for vanos to operate correctly
  8. Pretty sure they're differnt. Let me go check..... *Runs down to garage* They look the same to me. Welcome to come try them on. In red
  9. Good old ohms law, current is relitive to voltage and resistance. Amps/current isnt the problem as it's all relative to resistance/load and is just stating the chargers maximum current rating. So a 250mA is good for up to that, so if your device was drawing more than that, should specify what it requires, it will take longer to charge or overload charger as it's not designed to suppy that amount of current. So if it's taking ages to charge I'm guessing the device is drawing more current than the charger can suppy.
  10. Ohhh sh*t son!!! That sucks so much!! Anything get taken?
  11. Also use this, think you put me on to it. Very good investment!
  12. Ahh wheel polishing. Fun times!!
  13. So first wheel took almost 20hrs on just sanding to get it ready for machine then hand polishing and tonight managed to bang one out in 2.5hrs! Musta pissed around waaaaayyyy to much on the first. But was a learning curve so think I've got the gist of it now. Also mate of a mate does amazing polishing work in timaru and has just done one of the non sanded wheels and from the pictures looks pretty good and cheap too so might have to get him to do the machine polishing. Also looking into getting a clear powder coated on them but awaiting more info. Not long to go now
  14. Haha old gus! That's Tyler's old 325i. Big drive from Dunedin to welly for him
  15. Had a bit of spare time the last few nights so almost have another one ready, just needs another good going over with the polishing cone and then a hand buff to finish it off. Halfway there! And now these have shown up to go behind them
  16. How often do you do them and what sort of price roughly
  17. Parts all arrived today!! Was better than Christmas!!!! Many thanks to Kendrick who organised the whole thing and was super easy to deal with! Brakes look huuugggee!!!
  18. Heard the 5 speeds are stronger than the 6's in the e36 so would go for a 5 if your going down the turbo route
  19. Welcome! I'm sure you'll find out plenty of info on the e90 here and bringing the option of track days makes for a good opening statement! Pity I'm in Dunedin. With no track could make a day of it with other members tho...
