  1. Yea the black one, just read auction more carefully and "only one nz owner" my bad. Still a tidy looking car tho
  2. That's a pretty tidy e30 you've scored there
  3. I told my mate last week to have a look at it. Also there's a mint 318i e30 here with 1 lady owner from new with about 90,000km on it!
  4. That's the same as what I've got haha. Got the full 6mm-32mm and havn't had any issues. Who needs snap-on aye?
  5. I managed to get mine out with radiator still in place in the 328i and yea pretty sure Haynes manual said you have to remove it but alot of things they say you need to do you can get away without doing.
  6. That's the way it shows in my Haynes manual. Wouldn't of thought it would damage the waterpump. Basicly the same effect as a rattle gun.
  7. i just use the 32mm spanner and shock it off with a hammer. Just remember its a left hand thread
  8. Saw antil33t's wet dream today... The green e34 manual 525tds touring with black leather.
  9. My rears were 4"nokias and were in their own proper boxes that hang to just above the strut tops so just reused them with quality 4" speakers. I did have a business spec radio and cd changer though
  10. If its just a daily any sort of pads would do. Could try either BnT, repco or supercheap. BnT will have a better choice but supercheap will probally be the cheapest but most likely won't have them in stock.
  11. On the touring- Converted the front indicators into parks and indicators, painted grill black- was getting abit rough, painted new M side mirrors black to see if I want them black or white, and stickered up the rear window On the sedan- filled it with 98
  12. A low black e46 touring on black and polished wheels and a pretty tough looking blue e30 320i coupe on 15s. Any ones?
  13. A black e36 touring, my mates brothers silver 328i manual touring, and guy I know of's auto silver 328i touring. If only I was driving mine at the time...
  14. Found these http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-...n-495801257.htm $90 no reserve! One is a bit bent tho and need a referb
  15. On the touring fitted the new lower Control arms and bushes, new hydroblade wipers, had to bend the rear arm for it to work right tho, Ran subaru upper cleaner thru it, new park and headlight bulbs then found a plug unplugged that went into the bottom of the intake manifold into a plastic thingy that runs up the back of it. (m43) Any idea what that is? Also redded the tail lights to refit tomorrow Also put hydroblades on the sedan Edit: found what was unplugged, it was the disa or manifold intake adjuster. Changes the length of the intake path to allow better torque during different engine speeds. Havn't driven it since plugging it in but will tomorrow. Hopefully it makes a difference
  16. I've decided to make my one out of alloy, was free issue from a mate who's a boat builder and this way I can put a small bend on each end and try give the whole thing a slight curve to match the roofline. I'm getting the racks made tomorrow so will make a start on the fairing aswell
  17. Got new lower control arms and new bushes pressed into the lollipops. Will fit tomorrow. Also ordered all necessary parts to make indicators into parks x2. Hopefully here next week
  18. I'm trying to convince my mate to buy it, but he's not quite sold on it and I'd get in trouble if I did haha
  19. I'd make sure it wasn't over filled first. Wait till it's dead cold and check with the markings on expansion tank and then with motor warmed up try park on a steep incline or jack front right up with engine running and heater on hot and check bleed valve for any air. That was the problem with my 328i when I did pump and thermostat the other month
  20. Good to see another dunedinite joining. Welcome aboard!
  21. Oyes, looks quite good. Might aswell do a diy, be rude not to haha. Might go for the old school Thule 555 design
  22. Hey all, I'm getting a set of roof rails made up for the touring and am wanting to run a fairing with it. Whats the going rate or does anyone have one they want to sell? If theyre too expensive il just make one out of alloy. Cheers
  23. A brand spanking m3 being driven to the dealer. It was real puuurrdy
