Dr. M

Thanks, I saw you had a M113K blower at one stage. Did you end up fitting it to anything?

Thanks Richard, just read through your build thread, awesome E34! I've already got two V8's though (W211 E55 AMG + Jeep WJ 4.7) so looking for something else.

Thanks Brent, probably too big a project for me at present. Keen on something running and legal.

Thanks, have been watching that one...would love an ix but don't know enough re. parts availability (the front suspension etc is all ix specific I think) + if possible to manual convert

Would also consider E36 Touring, but prefer the older models

Always wanted one...keen to get one before they get any older. Any E34 or E30 Touring considered, anywhere. Manual preferred. Cheers

Sold. Cheers for the interest.

Selling my daily driven 540i as I've got too many cars... Looked around for some time to find one this tidy. Not a genuine M Sport but plenty of motorsport parts. Full top-shelf cooling system rebuild when I bought it with all new parts from FCP Euro. Should go for a long time without worries. Lots of receipts. New VTNZ wof, reg'd until August. 160 ks. $4800 ono https://www.trademe.co.nz/1572591552

Didn't know they were the same. Not selling that hanging pair are you?

As above, looking for a set of roof racks for my E39. I'm in Wellington but happy to arrange shipping from elsewhere. Cheers

Hopefully, some family visiting but will come if I can!

Nice E39! That was a good wee cruise through Newtown this evening.

Sorted; cheers guys.

Selling a set of H&R 29764 springs I imported from the states for E39 540i. BRAND NEW still in box. These are the sport springs and suit any NON-motorsport car for a drop of 35mm front, 20mm rear. $500

I've recent bought a Jap-import E39 540i and am rebuilding the cooling system; currently shopping for a radiator. I noted my car has the "S823 Hot climate version option." A search revealed several interpretations of this option, e.g: "A package that includes stronger AC and possibly no heater. Some cars also have larger radiators and increased engine cooling capacity for hot climates." My question for you guys is; does having this option change the radiator spec I need to buy? Hoping to purchase a Nissens or similar e.g. https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw-radiator-17111436060 I understand this option is very common internationally on the E39. Thanks for your help!

Thanks! M-sport retrofit or H&R springs?

Thanks for bringing this up; my understanding was the guides don't need doing until about 250k's (car has 155 currently). Quick thoughts on the timing of these?

Had to be an 8 for me in the end....picked up this one last night. Not a motorsport but much too tidy to walk away from. https://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=1416212371

Also considering a E39 525i or 530i M-sport if a good 540i doesn't come along, reckon they'd do instead? Gabriel are you pretty happy with yours?

Yea it does seem like a good time to buy one. I liked the one that sold here; wasn't in the market at the time though. Off to see the red one this week. Thanks Lucan, looking to spend less than $5k. Let me know.

As above, must be genuine motorsport. Steptronic OK, preferably newer than 2000. Don't mind >200kms if well maintained. Willing to travel nationwide. Thanks

Need a new standard steering wheel for my E32 as selling it and want to keep my Sparco. Anyone got one lying around etc? Cheers

$2800, 198k's Check out the auction: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=661270732&ed=true

Should add if you can get a courier etc to pick up from a residential address that's fine too.
