Hey bimmersporters,

For those of you guys whom followed my previous build thread, here is the new one.

I was working on my 1990 South African 325i but plans changed.

Its a shame as I thought I was progressing quite (slow) nicely.

the 325i is just tucked away in garage being neglected as I write this build thread on my newest addition to my e30 collection, il call her the bagged beauty.

Now heres the story.

I love e30s.

Gfs bro buys e30.

Spends 30k+ rebuilding and modifying one.

Buys house.

Sells car cheap to me.

Here we have my 1990 318i coupe.

M20b25 + getrag260 5 speed conversion

Rebuilt and stroked up to 2.8l at a cost of $8k (less than 2000km on rebuild)

Get gauges relocated to front to suit my gauge relocation panel and install a led above to read pressures at night

Hey mate not anymore,

After paying import tax these badboys have finally arrived.

brand new in box h&r springs and shocks for bmw e30 6 cyl

This kit offers a 40mm drop in rear and a 60 mm drop in front

Offering a great stance without having to fork out for coilovers.

this kit will drop the front lower than any other aftermarket lowering range getting rid of that ugly gap between front wheel and fender.l whilst still dropping the back nicely.

Originally imported from germany for my 325i but have now bought a new e30 on bags.

rrp: $1499

Bimmersport price @ $1000 cash firm.

prefer pickup from northshore/hibiscus coast area but can ship if genuine buyer at your expense.

This kit is perfectly suited for those who desire lowering, improved ride comfort, and performance . Enhance the look of your vehicle with a reduced fender well gap. Lower the center of gravity and reduce body roll for better handling. The progressive spring rate design provides superb ride quality and comfort. A lower wind resistance signature will make the vehicle more streamlined and improve gas mileage. Achieve all-around, better control with H&R shocks .

Will look awesome once installed

Pm or comment will be chucking on trademe on weekend

Great deal, install be $200 max so you will be getting kit and install cheaper than rrp here.

Cheers

I have a bagged Tech II coupe too

Maybe we should get some photos done

That is a beautiful car.

Excuse my ignorance as im mainly an e30 dude but are 850s usually that cheap? I would think this gorgeous example would be worth far more!!

Would expect that kit on a 318i not an m3!! nice colour though

Paid and PM'd

Wow mint car andy!!

love the colour my alltime fave e30 colour!!

H&r cupkit would look amazing on this car with the weaves its a reversable mod too

Have a build thread on here

Can sell with manual box or can convert it before sale

(have a 260 conversion)

Comes with brand new water pump/cam belt kit

Its delphin metallic

sunroof and 35% tints

i initially read that as new in box getrag 260, would have been something special.

Would be a great bargin if it was

how many KMs on the manual box? what condition is the clutch and pressure plate?

Box has 175kms on it. Clutch looks like it's been replaced at some stage and pressure plate good. Will get someone to look at it to judge condition as im probably not the best to ask

Bump, anytakers?

Can do $750 firm for 260 conversion

$1000 firm for cup kit.

Will be listing on trademe soon

Cheers

What did you pay for it?

Just swap your wheels from this and tail lights / lights and it would look way better. Then swap all the goodie parts over too.

9k, hes like my bestmate so I helped him out for his homeloan with that money

Yeah il get new tail lights I wouldnt even put them on this 325i hahaha. I will be taking tech II wheel and maplight mirror, clear indicators and dashmat etc for it bbs reps or maybe get some 17x8 og europas. I wana give it an e36 window switch conversion and get a nice bmw shift knob for it. And get his step dad to respray me a new bonnet. I kinda wana swap out the angel eyes for hid smileys but I like the halos at night haha. But I have big plans for it to get it looking primo!

Anyone know whom I have to call to arrange the numberplate changed on the cert plate?

Moving to the next level eh? - multiple projects all semi complete.

And still looking for more.......lol.

a part of me wants to just chuck on the springs and manual covert this, maybe sell on bbs and then I can buy europas for the bagged e30 but that has a few things to do to it too, like cosmetic jap - euro conversion

good points is that it is rebuilt and stroked 2.8

fresh respray

mtech II

M3 leather

airbag suspension

but will need a build thread of its own for what im going to do,

*sigh* will see what happens in time to come

Car will be for sale soon.

bought a new project, does that make me a quitter?

Also if anyone is after a getrag 260 manual conversion I have a full kit available.

looking for $900 cheers

Hey guys,

I Bought these from Germany for my 325i,

They havnt landed in nz yet so just seeing if any interest before I chuck on trademe.

Brand new sealed in box RRP @ $1499 I believe, correct me if wrong.

This is a set of 4 brand new lowering coils (approx 60mm drop front and 40mm drop in rear) and 4 brand new shocks to suit.

This cup kit is for facelift 6cyl e30s excluding cabriolet apparently.

the drop on these springs look a lot nicer than usual aftermarket springs so I beleive because the front doesnt sit high it sits quite snug with front wheels aswell as rear, which Is why I bought them for my 325i as I believed it deserved the best (without having to go coilover) but she wont be getting these (unless they dont sell) as I bought an e30 with airbag suspension. So no need for these, have been told between 120-200 for install. I may put these in my 325i though if not sold.

Any expression of interest feel free to post below or pm me. In no rush so can give you time to save if need be.

Pickup is encouraged as I don't really have much free time to arrange shipping but if I have to then I can try my best to findout prices.

im looking for $1250ono from bimmersporters or else I shall chuck up for retail on trademe.

Hopefully they arrive soon.

pics to come, (yes I know rules but sorry my ph is showing that zoomed in part where pic attatchment goes)

If you are after some lowering springs,

I have a brand new set of h&r springs and shocks sports cupkit.

brand new in box rrp is around $1500. 60mm drop in front and 40mm drop in rear.

bought for my 325i but just bought an e30 on an air ride suspension setup. Pm me if interested could work out a good deal! And would look awesome on such a tidy example of an e30 like yours as the drop is consistent unlike most aftermarket kits which the front sits too high normally.

After a manual e30 gear box and fly wheel to fit a PFL e30. . . Cheers

Got a complete getrag 260 conversion, looking for 1k. Just needs 1 new gbox mount as one broke (just a rubber mount) cheap as. Selling as I was going to convert my 325i but just bought a new e30

People that don't know bmws or e30s in particular really grind my gears. Those m badges are so gay I see so many non m models with them on and people saying theyre m spec lol irritating

mint brand new e30 tail lights , genuine type nice and shinny....

http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-...n-617813044.htm

How much to ship both sides to auckland?

And OP I have a facelift lip and an is oem lip available also have brand new leather gaiter

I may have purchased this,

will start a build thread soon for its euro conversion
