Best bet are the M3 style kits they sell on trademe or try Auto38 in Newtown.

Hoses sorted. Power steer pulley sorted. Still chasing airbox and fan.

Okay bleeded again by pushing the push rod in by hand with the bleeder on top. No difference. Clutch master next.

Value is subjective and this is a really small audience.

After the one with EWS removed, raised redline, 98 tune, etc. Got 200 to spend.

Went to Ali

Be bold and put up the price so we can all get back to our day jobs...

Thanks, will give that method a try, although it sounds difficult to achieve under the car - like needing 3 pairs of hands!

Hi all, I couldn't see a clutch / gearbox section so hope this is the right place. Car is an E36 with Getrag My car has been sitting for close to a year as I was doing an engine swap. Once the engine was back in I refitted the clutch slave into the gearbox and tried the clutch pedal. The pedal was rock hard. I checked the clutch slave and all looked good, so tried again. Eventually their was a bang and the pedal broke loose going right to the floor. I removed the slave and found it had blown apart and shot brake fluid everywhere. Fast forward and I now have a different clutch and new slave cylinder. I've been trying to bleed the slave like I would on any car but it doesn't appear to be working. I get someone to hold down the pedal, release the fluid, close the bleeder, return pedal to normal, pump again and repeat. The pedal is very easy to press and doesn't feel like it's connected to/operating anything mechanical i.e. the clutch. When under the car the clutch slave hose moves but I can't hear any sign of the fork moving. My next step is to remove the slave while someone presses the pedal and observe if it's moving. I'm starting to think the hard pedal was actually the master cylinder and the blown slave just the result of the sudden pressure surge when it broke free. Does anyone have any thoughts on any of the above or experience with this issue? Cheers

This thread needs pics.

I think mine is stuffed. Cheers

There's a slew of dealers on tardme asking tarded prices. Rose City and Duttons spring to mind.... and the guy with the white E36 M3

Best look out for a cheap donor car on trademe. Otherwise companies are asking $2k! https://www.trademe.co.nz/2255554214

Awesome. Bet it f**king rips

Are these the guys? They're from an M54B30. Stud there as an example of what they came off. 14 in all.

I looked into this at one point but to be honest for the work involved (even doing it myself) it wasn't really worth the effort for 20 real world HP. Better to enjoy it stock or save for an M3 powerplant imho.

I probably have these. Let me take a look.

I tend to see it as another unnecessary snake oil type product for those with too much money. I'm sure others will swear by it.

Brought to flick? https://www.trademe.co.nz/2281347291

I googled that for you https://www.autoevolution.com/news/bmw-cars-can-cope-with-e10-fuel-32393.html

Feeling like a change. Probably going to seek out a z3 or something in future so my 130i needs to go, but in no hurry. <124k New pilot sports all round, 4 wheel alignment and new battery during my fairly brief ownership. Will have service before sale as this is due soon. Light interior in good shape. Few scapes on the body (pic 3 front wheel arch scrape is the most obvious) and one wheel scraped (all courtesy of previous owner - I've treated this car like a baby). Still very presentable. Manual gearbox. Will post more pics. Based in Wellington / Kapiti Coast. PM if interested. Looking for 12k ono Cheers

Hey, I'll take these thanks

I was thinking that too.

I'm not even a fan but have to admit the 2jz is a good engine which has stood the test of time (a long time). I don't think there's any need to make it an us v them situation?

These cars have ugly tail lights, like a toyota or some sh*t
