This is a cool swap, n52s go great especially the b30s. Have you seen the velocity stacks people are running in the states? Could be quite cool. They’re running them entirely off of valvetronic with no intake manifold or throttle body just velocity stacks straight off the side of the head, probably terrible for IATs but looks and sounds really good

Considering selling my genuine bmw m performance short shift kit out of my 2008 135i. Complete with shift boot and knob. only selling to go to a chassis mount shifter as it’s mostly a racecar. these are discontinued and no longer available from bmw. Very hard to find. note, shift carrier has been professionally repaired/reinforced, doesn’t affect function and is not visible at all. Now NLA looking for around $750 considering how rare they are

Has been sorted but thank you for the offer!

It is located in thorndon unfortunately, but I appreciate the offer!

There is a 330d for sale on Facebook marketplace. F31, m sport x drive. fairly good value for money, and in the current market prices are quite negotiable. https://www.facebook.com/share/15h63mSKPv/?mibextid=79PoIi

I am considering purchasing a car (not a bmw unfortunately) that is located in Wellington, I am in Auckland. Is there anyone on this forum that would be willing to go have a look at it for me, can never judge paint conditon from photos, have a look for any damage, scratches, dents etc as well as maybe a quick check to see if there’s any oil pouring out the bottom, potentially even a quick test drive, make sure interior features work, no funny smells etc. Happy to supply some beers for the hassle.

Yes, I used to own a n47, 123d, and that needed timing chains done before it got to 200k kms. And I know about bearing failure all too well… spun a rod bearing in my 135i. Replaced the entire engine. Wouldn’t wish that upon anyone. Good to hear that the n57 seem to be better reliability wise, however I would still be slightly wary as I have seen multiple for sale with around 200k kms that have had Engines replaced due to various catastrophic failures. But a lot of that comes down to maintenance as well.

335d Wagon?

How are the n57 engines though reliability wise, have heard many stories of main bearing failure, timing chain failure etc etc
