  1. Oh mean as, that's alg - appreciate it ae. I'll let you know. Still gotta plan it out haha (clean out garage urghh)
  2. Haha yes that and also, I want the car off the road for the least amount of time possible as it's my daily driver so that's why I'd rather not do one at a time.
  3. Would you like to supersize those photos? Fries with that? Haha. You can re-size photos at www.tinypic.com cos those are HUGE
  4. Basic wasn't signing in for me.
  5. In Queenstown you can catch this ferry across the river/lake can't remember which one it is haha but that was really good when I went. Also take a drive out to the Amisfield vineyard and also the Millbrook golf course are amazing. If you "detour" past Napier the Craggy Range vineyard is good too. Vineyards in general are just good
  6. So gutted, going away this evening (Not even for a holiday ) so I couldn't go on the track day. Have a blast, everyone!
  7. I'll recommend it to friends on FB for you, looks good
  8. ^Get - Saw them in-store and they look mean. Pretty sure I saw those other ones in Hyper too but nothing which stuck in mind so the basketweaves MUST be better
  9. I'm in Orakei, Central Auckland. Well, I was going to go with red but I have a sort of black and white theme going on the car and since I'll likely be getting black wheels with a polished lip I'll probably go with white calipers, possibly an M decal on them. Will turn out something like this is the goal.
  10. Hi guys When I get back from a training course I'm going to paint my calipers but just wondering how i should go about getting all the wheels off in a home environment at once. Don't have any car jacks or anything other than the one in the car... All responses appreciated
  11. Saw a Cayenne on the track at a Porsche day. Looked like a whole lot of fun, nice to push it too the limits I'm sure.
  12. Saw Resident Know It All? Blue-ish Megane right? Also saw MAN H0 along the strand and the black and white E36 M3 w/ widebody that's been on TradeMe recently.
  13. Haha it would be nice 3 litre twin turbo?

    Gran Turismo 5

    Stoked. The brother bought a PS3.
  15. Must be the colour. Anyway, can't be much space. Do the seats fold down? Never had the good fortune (oxymoron?) to own an E30.
  16. Clay bars lift the contaminants from the paint's surface which regular cleaners can't do. It is exactly what it's name suggests, a piece of clay; glided over the paints surface. On a new car, probably not necessary - what's the year of your car? I clayed my car because it's ex-Japan and I wanted to get all of the sh*t out of it from the environment in Japan. It really does bring the colour out nicely. Remember to re-wax after claying as it strips the wax from the car. If you'd like any help with the process, feel free to PM me. Done it a few times and always happy to lend a hand. For the record, after claying my Dad's car which is black as well, it does look amazing. See for yourself:
  17. No idea what kind of muffler, just what he said.
  18. "Is there a condom to tampon conversion chart?" "No, I think it's based on flow, rather than size" "Wow, that was a piece of information I could've gone the rest of my life without knowing.." On topic: I use Armourall Everyday Wash (Which I will be swapping for something from the Mother's range) and a sponge which is being traded up to a wool mitt. Also use Mother's Carnauba Cleaner wax, occasionally Mother's clay bar and Mother's Showtime (instant detailer)
  19. Welcome to the forum Although I can't help, it'd be good to update your profile to show your location on your posts to help anybody else who visits your post.
