Weitz might have them unless they’ve sold.

One of the best restorations on here. The attention to detail etc. was as good as M539 (Sreton).

What a shame. Is he documenting the resto elsewhere? Wondering if it’s back on the road now.

The heated debates make for good entertainment if I’m being honest 😅 Hot take but, #bringbackthefirstlockdownthread 👀😂

Bit stink about the admin/decade long friendship part. Hope there’s some sort of resolution to it.

I've seen this up close a few times and no way it's a 6k car, maybe half that?

I think being manual + LSD + sports seats makes it a pretty good deal. A lot of car for the money.

imported some 18” versions of these. Now have a Wof

Can’t be many E46 M3’s in Welly. Any chance you had an alignment done this week?

Wagon looks so good!
 

How does the touring compare to your old E39 V8? Miss it at all?

There’s already a seperate thread on this one in the TradeMe section, “E30 320is” surprisingly.

Worthy of it’s own thread tbh.

🤦‍♂️ Deleted.

It wouldn’t be Bimmersport if it didn’t 👀😅

Not that I can see, just the electronic stalk 🥺

Different car but on the E46 the lever is under the steering wheel. Anything to the left of the steering wheel or under that looks like a manual lever? Surely someone here can chip in 😅

Interiors come up nicely!

No lever like the other Bimmers of that era to adjust the wheel at all?

The content we need but don’t deserve. Wow.

Plot twist, "Michael" is in fact Sreten and he lives in Germany.

“Coooomming up.”

Stock M3 steering rack not as good as purple tag?

Can't wait for the seats to be installed.

The guy off trademe that makes the merc and bmw v8 ones?

I think that same guy did some work on someone’s E34 540i on this forum? 

I will never look at Bronzit Beige the same 😍

And the imperfections on the seats add character 😉

Also don’t usually like wheels that aren’t OE but the Rays surprisingly look good. This project has come a long way and you’re still adding to it! Hope you’re proud man.

The one your mate grabbed is from a e46 that had a m43b19 engine, and wont fit unless you reposition the module with zipties.

 

Aaaaahh that explains it thank you!!

Will probably just grab the one on TM mate.

Cheers for the info lads.

@zero A mate grabbed one for me from pick a part which looked like it would fit. But for some reason the module on the fan is sitting more at “4/5 o’clock” and hitting the AC compressor/pulley compared to the image attached which sits at “3”. Was confused as I did heaps of searching on forums etc. and never came across anything of the sort. Was thinking it might be from a different model/same engine scenario but still thought it was bizarre.

@adro cheers for that. Didn’t know how to gauge going prices so that’s a big help!

Wanting to do the electric fan mod on my E46 so am on the lookout for one please.

Saw one on TradeMe for $175, but was hoping for something a little less steep 😅 

Welly based. Cheers and thank you.

Saw this on Carjam. No expert but looks like it’s a analog photo? Very cool.

(Can remove if this is cluttering up the thread.)

10K+ surely?

That’s tidy.
