  1. Spitties!!

    Me an Graham were talking about this the other night and came to the conclusion that this has to be one of the most badass E30 projects EVAR..

    The foreigners must be thinking 'those crazy kiwi bastards are at it again!'


  2. The people who moan about large pictures could try using a proper browser that re sizes images automatically

    Exactly.

    Could the mods tidy up this thread.. I'll resize when i get home but as previously mentioned high quality photos when you are trying to sell something do help.


  3. The time has come to part with this car.

    Many members on here would have seen this car and know how well presented it is.

    I purchased the car from a member on the forum who meticulously maintained the car and this has not stopped in my year of ownership. The car hardly gets driven and i want to make way for a good future instead of putting all my hard earned $$ into a car that cant be enjoyed as much as I would like. It is a fairly rare car and always get a great reception wherever i take it. Even the american muscle guys at beach hop got wound up about it :)

    I have a box full of receipts from previous and my ownership with over 30k of preventative maintenance, cosmetic improvements (many new parts to keep it in mint condition) and small (read reliable) performance gains. No expense has been spared, oil changed every 3 months regardless of use with Mobil 1 fully synthetic.

    The car is putting out ~385HP and has never skipped a beat having only done 92-93,000 miles. All work completed by Roger at John Edwards motors.

  4. My daily run about as some may know is a 86 Toyota Cressida.. Took it for a wof today and it passed fine but when i went to pick it up and drive it home i noticed it is misfiring really bad. Checked the plugs, leads, distributor, and all electrical connections throughout the engine bay..

    Cleaned everything up and put back together.. Its still misfiring and running really crap. Spoke to the indian guy at the shop i take it to and he says that he didn't touch anything that could have caused the problem.

    Last time i had a similar problem was in the E30 and it ended up being spark plugs but somehow i dont think it is the case with this car.

    Engine code is 5m-ge and is a 2.8 twin cam inline 6.

    Any help/pointers/tips appreciated.

    Ta

    Chris
