Event Horizon

Keep your E46's, I'd put a bit more in the kitty and buy a legitimate BMW Motorsport Z4 GT3 https://racecarsdirect.com/Advert/Details/58964/bmw-z4-gt3

I was told that there would be beer and boobies?

This was back in 2014...

It's a DIY if you're game Ryan, TM/JC should have the flange in stock. Loosen the wires on the firewall for a bit more room, you *may* need to remove the intake manifold, but don't quote me on that. A ratchet spanner for the two bolts holding the flange will make life easier as well.

Huddy they're about the same weight at the ZHP knob that came in the E46 - so a fair bit heavier than stock, it's a nice weight. Tom I'll take one please!

Wanna part with the mirrors?!

Nice car pedigree! Don't worry about skipping the AA report, their reports are worth about as much as a child's crayon drawings.

Long lost to the sands of time I'm afraid.

I would rather an Active Tourer than that steaming turd of a car. Pretty sure it was to be branded as a 7 series until they changed their minds at the 11th hour, believing that they'd sell more as a 5. Still based on the F01 chassis though, which ss why it's so bloody massive.

Oh goddamn, I read the top ad first and thought "sweet, $2100 off for bimmersporters!" I'm guessing he's not going to bite at a $4K offer then?

If you're doing this for space reasons in the E30 engine bay, find a booster from a Renault Clio, they're about perfect. The Clio you want it from is the model with plastic front arches (can't remember the exact model/year off the top of my head).

Black on black with the best wheels, awesome car!

I'll take the boot organiser! Edit: My bro lives in Dunners so would you be able to drop it off at the Uni Admin building where he works?

Not going in the Red M3 is it James?!

E30 info, so YMMV: I ran 205/215 on a 7.5/8.5" E30 M3 suspension setup and it tamed the renowned E30 tail happiness somewhat. The M3 suspension is a shitload better than stock with the differing suspension turret angles, but there's a reason that every single tuner moved away from BMW's square setup.

Round flares on E9's make baby Jesus cry. They look so out of place!

Love it! Hate the wheels, colour, side grills and mirrors, however.

Wood polishing is looking good! Would love to see some more pics of this, I've got some eighties Mercedes trim to do. Don't worry about going down to the wood, if the scratches are really bad, you could go as low as 280 grit before heading back up the scale, normally for teak we start laying coats of varnish down again once we get to up 320 and the sky is the limit from there really. +1 on using a machine to buff it. In addition to the Meguiars mentioned, you could use Farecla Profile 500 liquid compound and then Profile Glaze.

They're going to produce probably over 10,000 of them and you can bet your bottom dollar that this was paid for with the marketing budget. No great loss. S1000rr's are in the movie too.

Factory S54 Ray or did ya swap it? Looks mean on those E38 rims.

Their move from Newmarket to Ellerslie killed two birds with one stone. The building was farked and wasn't earthquake proof, and the motorway access for proper road testing was a pita, which is a pretty big concern for cars with such low mileage.

Messaged you the other day...

NFS II SE was the absolute business back in the day, kicked off my obsession with the F50. I reckon Porsche 2000 was the high-water mark for the series tbh, lost interest after the focus shifted.

If you go 750 route you'll need to fab up a new line to the abs pump as the e30 one doesn't line up with the 750 booster port. Use p/n 34326755585 and bend it to suit.
