The fatter part goes to the bottom with these, thats how they raise the subframe. Either way, I measured them up and compared to old standard ones. The aluminium insert is correct length thankfully, but bottom half is 7-8mm too long.

Dont think so.. these are supposed to raise subframe 12mm. Either way, the total stack height appears to be too much, so flipping them wouldnt make a difference?

got a small case diff and axles. comes with a free subframe (still attatched.)

I got one... comes with a free engine. $300

I know of multiple m50 / m52 swapped e30's that have been passing warrants for the last few years with no cert, no questions asked - not sure if they notice or not. One is a 318 with m52b28 lol....

I got a bunch of OBC's / modules / relays from E32's if you want to try anything.

I wouldnt do that. Even if you are 100% legal to your cert plate and if cops want to f**k with you they will, and there isnt anything you can do about it. stretch is gay.

ok, fair enough.

He is saying it does NOT have that. Mine is like 2 weeks old and tyre size was not recorded, only wheel size, and height.

Still for sale. Still in the car so can be heard running. Make an offer!

Attempted to PM, inbox full.

yeah sweet as. yep, needs new front bumper and valence. but i think it will tidy up nicely with not too much work. most the stuff done to it is easily reversible.

Tbh I think that would completely ruin the car. I'd buy a boat and use the M70 for an anchor though Contemplating M62 5 speed manual, but I dont like the idea of spacing the subframe 20mm, and the brake booster setup people use. Where does the sump on an m62 sit in relation to the E30 subframe? In front of it? Does it prevent you from moving the engine backwards any further? Did any of the m62's come with rear sumps?

Yeah it would be cool, but if I did it I would cut the firewall out and sit the motor right back. Which I guess isnt out of the question.

Hrrm what do you want? Someones cut the rear half of it out, prob for rust repairs on their own one i would say. Hrrm most the interior, engine, prob a full manual conversion. Quite a few E34's, and E36's as well! A lot of M52's there. Mostly 323's and a 320. A manual 535 (e34), but conversion is gone.

Sweet as, will take both ABS struts.

There is what appears to be a complete manual E21 (has m10 engine) at pick a part tauranga if that is any use to you.

$60 a strut or per set? Im after a RH side abs 51mm strut.

Pretty easy to remove the carpets really, if the car is an aircon car its easiest to cut the carpet around the heaterbox otherwise you need to remove the dash + heaterbox. I used VHT last time, removed the carpet, water blasted the sh*t out of it and hung it up to dry for a week before spraying it. Never wore out.

Yeah, its had some substantial upgrades since then. Tonight I replaced one tail light... and the boot badge to a nicer one. could be a slow build..

door isnt closed properly. will be keeping it.

Hrrm, sold my spare m60 a few months ago. would of gone well in it, but manual gearboxes are expensive for them

It had these ugly ass tail lights, so removed those. I think I have some replacements in my stash of spare parts some where which I will dig out during the week. Anyone want them? One of them seems to be a bit faded, might come up with bit of a polish if you're into that sort of thing. Come pick them up from hamilton. Otherwise they are going in the bin. someone removed the boot spoiler and left holes and goop on the boot. so I put a new boot lid on. parcel tray has not been cut to fit the speakers either. Pulled back the seat covers... its a bit ugly. Will have to replace them. It's got an alarm somewhere, and the immobiliser is stopping it from starting. A paperclip in the C101 connector fixed that and it started first pop. Removed one of the "bros" stereo / amp installations. This week ill remove the carpet, water blast it cause its a bit rank, and prob dye it black, and at the same time remove the alarm.

Picked this thing up cheap the other week. 318i facelift coupe. Had a supposedly blown gearbox, and battery was flat so I hauled it home on the trailer not really knowing if the engine was good or not. It has a few issues ill be sorting out over the next few weeks... The M40 aint gonna cut it, so that has to go, will manual convert at the same time. The suspension is questionable, so that will get a freshen up. It has a few rice burner additions to it that ill remove and a few other little things.

Just picked up a E30 318 auto to do an engine swap on, so engine and gearbox are no longer needed. Gearbox is supposedly stuffed, but has forwards and reverse but I havent driven it down the road, it makes a whirring noise when in park, noise dissapears in neutral or forwards / reverse. Car has 217k on it, and engine seems to run nicely. comes with gearbox, loom, ecu and ancillaries. engine is still in car and can be seen running. located in hamilton. $1 on trademe! http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-...n-567072189.htm
