  1. Yeah USA dm had one piece rotors. Real world performance it doesn't really matter too much unless you're track race dedicated
  2. Warped rotors usually you feel it in the brake pedal from my experience
  3. Could they be using or trying to use s50 dohc heads? What with the s50b32 being based off the s70/2?

  10. Or everyday. Massive fail on sh20 southbound so anyone planning to head to the sh1 connection should avoid
  11. Apparently an older Italian gentleman. Pros and cons. All panels and seals were straightened and replaced etc. Pretty comprehensive job done .. The only place I can see techno so far is if I take the license plate lights out. Everything else was resprayed. Everything.
  12. Send me the image files and I can tidy them up for you
  13. /cries softly in the corner. Mine used to be techno
  14. I thought the s50b32 was based off s70/2 tech? Dual vanos and the like ..
  15. Yeah jaycar sell only those budget T splices
  16. E36s get a lot of hate, especially the M3. People consider it a 'bridge' car between the iconic E30 M3 and the world wide distributed (North American Market) E46 M3. But there is a reason behind it all .. the E36 chassis and body panels are the first time when BMW actually started further development into proper aerodynamics .. there is a BMW youtube video which explains this. Still .. sad the E36 M3 never got some over flares and special bonnet and grilles etc. Very understated car which suits some and turns others off. Can't complain about the drivetrain though. Many regard the S50B32 to be a very advanced engine for not only its time, but in general .. even after close to 20 years
  17. those fuel economy stats are better than mine! broken vanos and no tune must really make a difference!
  18. Oi nothing wrong with woodngrain on a sedan. Its real walnut! Saw this car in person when it was for sale in Auckland. Contour wheels freshly refurbished !
