  2. how bout a tidy dark blue e23?? pm'd
  3. another one avoid is the double cab thing from nissan. cant recall the name,all looks though etc. but expect to do brakes,often.clutches/gearboxes and even heard of a diff needing to be replaced.not built as a workhorse but advertized as one.piss poor
  4. why the m90?? late m30 blocks are 92mm. early csi blocks are 93.4mm. add the later 86mm crank out of the late m30's = more cc's. bore it out to 95mm, and we come to 3660 odd cc's. na, grow capsicums for a job, muck round the in shed way too much. pistons do look good.alloy and cam ground.oblong shape so they expand/shrink with heat cycles. gapping the rings was a fun job.they came from denco,based in chch. good guy who runs the place,knows his stuff
  5. Got a mate who is selling his e34 manual. the tidiest example i've seen for along time.he only buys the best. he is coming down to the bbq at my place on sunday. anyone keen to inspect etc,pm me or see you on the day
  6. i'm all confused, quick what??,dont see any ass. or do we need to be on grass?
  7. ok kids punch in; photobucket.com album; red535t pics say a 1000 words,thought i'd save time
  8. your welcome to come over, sort your problem out. thinking of organizing of a mini spanner fest
  9. third time i've missed the bus today
  10. As above, great looking 'budget' setup.
  11. can sort you out with even more reasonable prices. got the lot,mid and last mufflers in stock cheers marty

  14. topcat

    Ferrari 360 Engine

    would make a very nice potplant holder
  15. your probably spot on there. what would i buy if i could spend the goverments social welfare's budget???? trip to the moon on a yearly basis for a start
  16. 20%????!!!. now thats good business thinking.........as long as the values go up.......not likely me thinks
  17. with that many cars in the garage, i wonder if he (the sultan) ran his own bimmer race series? good job though for the boy who has to maintain the data base on which car needs a WOF etc does the sultan only drive BMW, or does he also collect the other 20 or so manufactures???? so many questions
  18. torque is alot of talk think its difficult to accurately measure. not only between hub and roller dynos, but the equations that go with it. my red e28 was plotted at round the 800nm plus in forth then it made 1000nm in third gear.at this level i would expect the cogs to fly out the box. it went like the clappers and ive never sat in a torque monster to compare,so how would i know. other then my bum-o-meter
  19. does it have the wood trim in the door ect?
  20. are you using a e32 loom or e28?
  21. Nice one mate,great numbers for a low boost setup. having 12 more valves really makes a huge difference. two thing though; 1.watch the wear etc on engine,gearbox and any other rubber mounts for that matter. 2.welcome to the land of FI
  22. cheers for that, another wreck to add to the lineup out on the paddock a nice touch with a rainbow in the back ground.
