  1. the cleanup continues and dug a number of front brake calipers up to see the light of day again. these came off e38's, think their a factory sport option. 4 big pot brembo styled as pictured. have 2 sets available 1x set complete 1x set, one caliper assembled/ other stripped down, ready for assembly plus have 2x hoses to go with. $300 / a set
  2. more bits found.... 2x L or R ? it raining so can check later. tidy 2 of the same side, one base. a couple e23/28 dash clusters, probably were going when removed - hence saving but good for parts a couple m30 distributor caps pls leads aftermarket/smaller m30 front pulley, less drag on the amazing hp delivery. may fit other engines... not 100% again, ask for a pic over txt $100? for the lot
  3. came across this while the cleanup continues. used for diff coolers, but anything oil related should be fine. i had it briefly on the 537i, to scavenge the turbo oil drain . ( turbo was very low mounted, great for weight/space, not so for drainage ) $120 should be all good cant load a pic on here, i'll text it cheers
  4. cleaning out the shed, as the m5x/e28 engine swap will probably never happen. i did come across the titled unit. came from a rusty shell, pick a part Onehunga. at least 10yrs ago. can courier if needed. $100 ? cheers, marty

  6. hi, just saw this reply in . fitted a e32, 750/ 25mm unit. if i were to do it again.... there will always be a next time.... i would fit pedals and remotes setup, that way would be able to increase the pressure/shorten the stroke

    hi, just saw your post. everything got cleaned up around 4 years back. try silver fox aka Dvaid Lawrence out waiuku way
  8. I had adapter brackets made to connect the e38 factory brembo brake option to fit e28's. rotor is hugh though, from a e60 550 from memory stopping power was/is quite eye opening. can't fit all 17" wheels, but will fit all 18's
  9. Hi all, Been a while since i've posting here, but here we are. currently we drive a e91 touring, its been a a good car, but we're getting older so its time for less sporty driving positions and more thought given to hips/knees etc. im not keen on the size of the 3, but since i dont get to drive it much..... 3L diesel would be my preference, but any of the petrol variants will be fine also. currently have viewed a number vehicles, ranging from '06-'09's, but most look like a family have camped out in them for a couple months. So...if you know of something, any where in the county, willing to catch a plane etc, give me a hola, cheers-marty
  10. i have used macweld in drury. they dont paint, but the welding,machining and polishing is very good. plus, they are heaps cheaper then arrow. they stand by their work
