I've found RockAuto and Schmiedmann best cost and shipping wise to NZ. Eg Rein OE: https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=8836584&cc=1011687&pt=7680&jsn=437 SKP OE spec: https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=11137797&cc=1011687&pt=7680&jsn=436

It's garage clearing time hence my sale recent posts and for the good ol' E36, this is what I have available below: SOLD - Monroe Reflex front struts, rear shocks and springs from 325i. Was only using these for WOF days under my ownership. Good condition. SOLD - Coupe/convertible orange rear tails and front corners. Genuine OEM. $50 - M50B20 stock airbox. SOLD - transmission mounts (brand new). p/n: 22316799330 - E30, E34, E36, E39, E46, E81, E82, E84, E87, E88, E89, E90, E90, E91, E92, E93, F10 SOLD - M Engine mounts (brand new). p/n: 11812283798 - People have fitted these to non M cars, as they are stiffer than non M. Unfortunately I learned that E36 convertibles have their own unique engine mounts, so didn't suit my application! Pickup Auckland or shipping available. Prefer not to ship suspension struts, but can do for the right buyer. Would be interested in part swapping for 17" wheels and semi slicks, or style 66s (any number of wheels and widths).

E36 M3 LUK RepSet Clutch Kit - $SOLD - Clutch disc (240 mm) - Pressure plate - Release/throwout bearing (not pictured, but is included) It was more cost effective buying a brand new dual mass flywheel + clutch kit than DMF on its own, so this is surplus to needs. Located in Auckland, pickup ok. Estimated courier rates: $20 Nth Island $30 Sth Island

RHD manual shift boot frame. Fits all models except Ti. Replace your broken frame, or great for a custom gear shift boot. $40 inc postage anywhere in NZ Brand new item created in US, they are the most available and affordable RHD trims I could find globally and absolutely stoked on the quality! https://aminnovationllc.com/collections/frontpage/products/bmw-e36-shift-boot-frame?fbclid=IwAR1P3RcHgMiYjcsbmXzdro9IVGyKV2YuTjWdU5tduNO4bNPT0bpc9bMO4Lo Note: This is just for the lower frame/trim as pictured, no leather boot included. I ended up buying a LHD leather boot, detaching from the old LHD frame and re-gluing to one of these RHD frames.

Y'all likely know the weak point with E30/E36/E46 rear shock mounts and E36/E46 front strut mounts cracking or warping. I learned the hard way years ago, and I didn't want to get caught out again so had some reinforcement plates cut out! Offering cheaper pricing to Bimmersport members, than trademe/FB marketplace. Rear reinforcement (E30, E36, E46, and Z3): - 3mm mild steel + bituminous coat (the coat is only to avoid surface rust while storing for spares) - Swag gaskets (OE spec) Front reinforcement (E36, E46**): - 3mm stainless steel (11G) - Elring gasket (OEM) - Designed to allow camber adjustable top plates. **Note - The E46 had a 'poor road package' option which came with a similar reinforcement plate. The front plates will fit most E46 aftermarket strut mounts with no modification, and also factory strut mount with another hole drilled for the aligning dimple. $40: Rear set including gasket-washers. $85: Front set including gasket-washers. $110: Full set of front and rear, including all gasket-washers. Postage anywhere in NZ included, or can pickup in Auckland. OEM part numbers: 51718413359 - Z3 M rear strut reinforcement 33526772864 - rear washer-gasket 31312489795 - M3 3.2 front strut reinforcement (do not allow for camber adjustment) 31331094288 - front washer-gasket **E46: 51717036781 - Reinforcement, supporting bearing

Wasn't sure where to post this, but am looking to ID a manual ZF box. Identifiable numbers on the box: 1053401107 02222612218999 12219369012225 Based on the old Google I think it's originally from an E36 325tds, ie: a S5D 260Z but hoping someone has more knowledge here that can confirm. --- Next Q, if it is indeed a 260Z, how could I go about confirming which variation based on the physical box, or would I need the original VIN for clarification? IE: S5D 260Z - THML S5D 260Z - THMY --- Furthermore, if anyone has gear ratio knowledge - this is what I've managed to dig up online, just looking for confirmation these ratios are correct? Gear 325tds ZF S5D260Z M3 ZF S5D310Z S5D320Z G220 1st 5.09 4.20 4.23 2nd 2.80 2.49 2.52 3rd 1.76 1.66 1.66 4th 1.25 1.24 1.22 5th 1.00 1.00 1.00 R 4.71 3.89 4.04 BMW TIS Transmission designations.pdf

Hey Sam! Colour is Montreal-blau (297). I re-trimmed the headliner with some fabric I scored from a Turkish outfit, but wish I'd gone with ASC Fabrics from the get go as they have really good reproduction fabrics. The dream initially was to go full M-Rain interior, but I've grown pretty fond of the Dove Grey especially after leaving her topless in the sun for a couple hours - no burnies.
