  1. Hi everyone Matt here from Christchurch. I'm a fitter/fabricator by trade and my work is customizing vehicles for people with disabilities. I own an 1986 E23 728i. Purchased the car last year and have been slowly working through tidying it up and putting my touch on it. The car is NZ New with 186,000km. Only rust is a couple of small spots in the sunroof. Car is generally tidy underneath and the only obligatory oil leak is coming from the front crank seal. I'll do a full build thread but the plan for the next 12 months or so is to order Coilovers, build some custom strut braces and focus on getting the suspension set up nicely. Once that's done I have a full manual conversion waiting to go in but it only has a 4 speed box so I need to find a getrag 260 for it. Finally I'm going to fit a M30B35 and piece together a turbo kit for it. I'm not planning any specific motor sport with it, but once I get it setup we'll I'm looking to do the odd Autocross event and track day. I've owned a few BMWs over the years. E82 135i N55 DCT stage 2 tuned, a couple of E46, E60 540i, F10 530D and an E53. I love bmws and my dream is to have a manual converted V10 E60 M5 one day (when fuel prices aren't so horrendous!)
