i'm installing a stud kit on my e30. I bought Three Bond medium strength ( its the same as Locktite Blue according to couple of auto shops). Apart from screwing the studs in TIGHT AS HELL, is there anything else you guys can advise on in terms of installation and safety? Do i still torque the new wheel nuts the same as factory recommendations ? I'm using brake parts cleaner to clean the surfaces for the bond.

E30's and E30 parts are poor value for money. Thats it IMO

spotted this during the day at Eden village. The last thing i thought it would be was a Volvo

Seen this car on Manukau Rd once, looked very nice. But the owner seemed to an attention grabber IMO, all lights on during a sunny day. Looked mint, shined like mad

THANKS! yea, all the speakers already in the stock positions, just need to wire it using supplied wiring. Upgraded fronts only, left the rear Aiwa 2 way/coaxials as it is. Awesome idea of using Thriller. Cheers Rogan. I thought about installing them into vents, but too much work at this stage. You can also put tweeters into where the manual window handle goes, but you need electric windows and change your door cards into manual ones.

According to wikipedia and their website

Something's wrong with my widescreen monitor wonder if it handles alrite

Thats the factory pod aim IIRC? These swivel around in their casing, so can adjust direction. Cheers for the input so far guys, much appreciated.

im going no.1 @ 1rotty/Mark: they are Clarion, came in a 5.25' component package @ _BRS_/Blair: cant afford them , especially ~$100 a pair from recent TM auctions

Car's off to the painters for the week, so started workin on tweeters. I'm not pointing the tweeters at the seating positions, because i heard that this causes "harshness" when music's playing. Is this the case? Also, which tweeter would you pick? Tweeter 1 Tweeter 2 Held by blu tak atm

EPD509 Just saw you at the Henley Rd/Woodside Rd roundabout, plus half a dozen times around Ashton Rd/Valley Rd

mine does 8L/100km around town with a heavy right foot. On Motorways, 5.5L - 6.5L/100km @ 100km/h, according to the cluster reading anyways

Yea man. And on Empire rd a while back, plus few other places.

Been seeing a M325 pre-fl around the burbs of auckland central area few times

That was my experience with tints from Jap cars, but whether or not if its still legal, someone else with more knowledge can shed more light onto this. The cars went through further WoF without further issues, so i guess by WoF standards, they are fine. FYI, the tints were VERY light and not dark shades.

when my mom's car came into NZ (04 Civic) and my mates car (03 Golf), it had tints ripped from the front door windows when it went through its 1st WoF and compliance, but the back door window tints were left on.

That is tidy as. How'd you secure the sub to the boot mat?

LOL nearly choked on the sausage that was in my mouth from laughing

thanks alot guys, im just a paranoid person when it comes to cars, safety 1st. I just thought why would the alignment be out of place when i replaced with exact same part. Alignment Monday mornin'.

My e30 pulls to the right when steering wheel is straight. I didnt change the tie rod or twist it ( maybe the accidental 1/2 turn ), but after i put the left strut back in, the car pulls to the right. I changed the lower control arm, all the joints and bushes are in good condition. Its also not bent. Everything is torqued back to the correct figues. Going into the alignment shop monday, but no idea why its pulling to the right. Any ideas?

Found a centre cap whilst picking my mate up last Sunday of June, it was sitting ontop of leaves next to a storm drain. Spotted the BMW logo and thought it was a decent bonnet badge . You can have the centre cap regardless lol.

Did you go onto Arney Rd in Remuera by any chance?
