  1. Engine through the bottom is for sure the best way for E30's, especially with fresh paint and gearbox attached.

    E60 M5

    Tbh I think you might be?? Although it’s the same cars that are sitting on TM and not selling, some fairly poor examples imho. Very nice mods in the KW’s and Brembo’s, the Dame Edna rear lights are nice to have as well, but no mention of the big ticket items having being done? have you had any interest at all? Even low ball offers?
  4. Avus 540iS got down to $16k when it was a private sale, so let’s not stoke the Sunday Garage market pricefest… To be fair it is/was an incredible car; wether you place value on buying an immaculate survivor factory specced car or a well restored facsimile is entirely up to the buyer.
  5. Hell yes Andrew, that looks bloody mint! And very good timing as I’m looking to dump a heap of E30 bits to get refurbished. Gimme the run down on the brakes - were they blasted and powder coated?
  6. Good luck to you mate, the negotiations on the exact same car post Covid in 2011 was at $40k, as you very well know. Can’t see any work you’ve done to add value; but you do you. Several E39 M5’s at this level or better in NZ so that’s a misnomer as well.
  7. This will be a living document in corporate-speak, as I'm after a bunch of bits so I'll update and edit as I acquire stuff. 1) First cab off the rank is a pair of E30 M3 alloy control arms. NLA now but someone might have some NOS stock tucked away before I search overseas? 2) I'm also after the MT2 drilling templates for various body panels - these used to be stickers that you would apply to panels at the dealership if the kit was being retrofitted, obviously long NLA. I have a pair of MT2 fitted guards that I can make templates from, but I need a steel front valance to measure from so if a) someone has one that's had the front bumper attached and would sell to me or b) would be willing to take a template from?
  8. At least you know this will sound awesome blasting through the HK stereo
  9. Meaty rubber + big brakes + small wheels = win.
  10. They had to swap the headlights from left to right as the first gen cars had them the other way around and looked crossed eyed 😂
  11. How much is an F31 320i…
  12. Barrels are an issue with the 313’s - my 19” 313’s wouldn’t clear the 340mm 4 pistons, but I understand the 380mm 4 pistons would due to the caliper spacing being further out. That’s with lower offset wheels than the 1 series version, so ymmv. Definitely worth doing some cardboard aided design beforehand.
  13. Got a sneaking suspicion that it's got a 2.8 that Ray built? Headers and Rac Dyn cam cover look familiar from when they were in a Sterling Mt2 that got binned on the Shelley Beach Road off ramp. SJ has had it in the workshop when it was on 777MHL plates, I tried to find the pics but failed, it was immaculate iirc?
  14. Massive temptation to put that 750 on my throwing stars in the garage.
