Hel are awesome to deal with! Got some F30 Brembo to E90 braided lines off them which they actually stock off the shelf.

(possibly paraphrased).

I've got a full set of E36 M3 calipers (same same as 540i) up in Auckland, but they need a rebuild.

As an aside, Seaview1974 is currently my favourite for asking punishing auction questions.

@Bennyboy your response please 😁

I remember when it was first for sale a couple of years ago - those photos are from the dealer that imported it from Japan where I presume the system was installed. I thought for about 10 minutes about fitting it all into a 123d before I came to my senses. It's all rockford fosgate gear as well...

It's not genuine as they never came in white, or auto.

Leaving next week eh? Wonder if he'll take $2.5k 😂

Dry ice blasting would be the go if you can find someone up North that does the work. Think the closest guy to Marsden Point that I know of would be in Dairy Flat though.

Slightly adjacent, but I love this video of Owen Evans collecting his 964 RSR off the ship at midnight in 1994. The salvors hammering away the wooden chocks from the slicks 😮 John Sax's son was restoring his old mans group N E30 M3 that was involved in the Longhurst incident in 1990, wonder if he ever finished it.

Getting snowed in, so tickled up the CSL in the garage

Couple of 318is replicas https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/318i/listing/4906252916 https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/318is/listing/4902232093 Edit: dogleg 245 for sale as well... https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/car-parts-accessories/bmw/gear-boxes/listing/4908713721 Anyone got a 3.46:1 medium case LSD lying about?!

Rate this look very highly. Anything in stock? Must be the flappy paddle version.

Cheers m8! Gonna practice my wool pad skillz as they're sorely lacking. Not bad for a panel that was frozen to the side of the road for a week though 😂

Messing about with some hellrot panels from a ti that decided to upside-down itself. first pass at 1000rpm with farecla G3 premium on a yellow pad with a Rupes 21mm DA. Gonna have some fun ending up burning through!

Did some late night Italian tuning - quick run out to Arrowtown and back. Got absolutely DUSTED on the Dalefield back roads by an Alfa GTV. The 1.6 was well above 7K and spitting flames as it rocketed past me 😁 God they're an achingly gorgeous car. 1299691.jpg

...You're making me want to snag that Shrick 302 on TM right now. Idle? What idle 😂

17" replicas I'd say. 16" and 17" RS wheel faces are 34 hole, those are 38. Second pocket of the waffle doesn't look like it extends nearly far enough into the wheel spoke either.

Nice one SJ, dude was practically giving them away at that price! What size are the trumpets? I reckon pistons over roller rockers.

I'd be giving Autlolign a call to see if they can rebuild it. Any other option is going to be a lesser and more expensive option.

Got my last set of Michelin PS4S's from Costo in the states, was about $2K NZD all-in, although I had some very favourable shipping rates (ie: free).

And you could probably sell that god awful heckblende for $1500 to recoup some more costs too!

Fear of flying??

Oooof, description changed since I first saw it. Yep agreed, probably accelerator pedal mounting point and front jacking points as well.
