Eagle

Sounds like it could be the DISA valve but like others said really need someone to check it out

Sounds like the blower motor has gone either that or the final stage resistor

HB man and keep the eagle alive

When i got my 535i it had done around 510,000km and all i replaced suspension wise was front shocks and sway bar links as the boot were cracked. Where service history and receipts come in useful so you know whats been done. Out of all the E34 and E32 ive always been able to fix shimmys by getting wheels balanced and swapping the best rims and\or tyres to the front or just swapping front to back.

Believe it is a small E34 diff but please correct me if im wrong $600

Not exactly hard to legally own a semi auto AK(which is what they will be giving away) in NZ . You can pick them up here for around $1500 NZD now, ive got 3x of them around here .

Dont you work there? or used to?

Welcome to the club

KYB's are ok, the shock dampening is quite firm compared to stock and wont last anywhere as long but ok if your on a budget i guess. P&H suspension in Hamilton gave me a quote of 2k for kyb's funnily enough, probably get them a little cheaper but 1.5k for boges is a very good price.

Id just buy new std struts and do away with edc No idea on labour but i picked up some OEM Boge front and rear struts for the E38 740 - $1450 all up from SAS suspension.

Yeah i only got mine today but was worth the wait.

HB man. Was going to say do a skid but not even sure you can in that car

Nice build. Although im not sure why you need 5870 and 8gb of ram for a home theatre box thou lol, guessing you game too?.

Don't buy branded sh*t whatever you do. Assemble yourself or get the store to do it. PB tech in Hamilton on Lake rd are quite well priced now and at know what they are on about.

Haha nice shots of the 7, see that body roll. It was fun to drive but sloppy as. Be alot of better in next time with new shocks and tires. Wasn't the slowest car there either

HB yo

Not to mention E30's stand up to the k's pretty well compared similar age jappas etc. E34's would have to be kings of high k's, built to last.

Mostly Belgian\Belgian style beers - Duvel, Chimey, Gouden Carolus, Achel just to name a few. Speaking of Epic Its good sh*t

Real men play ARMA

Good to see my old wheels being put to use , hardly had them on my old car long. Just for reference iirc: Front:7.5" with 1.5" lip. ET15 Rear: 8" with 2" lip. ET10

Always liked E32 looks over E34 after owning one, after all the E34 was just a another version of them.

Love the E31 until you turn on the lights, id take an E24 instead.

Might go 100 but don't be crashing anytime soon

Its more the upper control arms(thrust arms) that cause the shimmy, the arm with the spherical bearing is the lower control arm. Some M5 owners seem to replace lower control arm with E31 units and press a 750i or M5 bushing in the uppers Ive got some E32 750i upper control arm bushings ive been meaning putting in mine, should last a bit longer and fix my very minor shimmy I think the cheapest bet to do as Jon said and replace the alloy arms with steel arms so you can press the bushing out and put urethane ones in EDIT: There are some well priced E31 lower arms on ebay around 250 each - would be the way to go

From what just reasearched the actual arms are the same but the E31 have spherical bearing instead rubber bushing (E32 & E34's). People do seem to use M5 arms even thou not ideal, guessing due to cost. Dont think id call the 850i a super car maybe the 850csi
