  1. Micksgarage also have Brembos on special. Plenty of reputable rotor brands out there that will do the job just fine, you will be replacing them again before you know anyway given the terrible thickness spec.

    Free E34 parts

    Yeah should be ok. Probably worth bring your own containers\boxes etc as its not very well organised and boxes are quite old and getting weak. We can sort the finer details out via PM.

    Free E34 parts

    Its all come down from my parents attic but yeah should be able to find some space elsewhere to put it temporary. Are we talking 2nd week of December?

    Free E34 parts

    No longer needed and not really worth attempting to sell it Must pickup in Hamilton and take the lot All sorts of stuff, not going but list all individually but some of the main things are - M30 ECU, brake calipers, alternator, starter motor IKHA modules and fan resistor, heater valve, instrument clusters, relays, interior trims pieces such as door seals, seat belts seat trims, headlight parts, taillights, fog lights,indicator lens, wiper and linkages\motor, heater core, various hoses etc Also a manual rear sunshade if someone wants to buy it. Have the original parcel shelf for the template cutout but cant find the hooks which go on the headlining but easy to make up your own.
  5. Pulled from genuine msport. Unfortunately middle section was broken off the plastic surround so will need to be glued if used, missing the ashtray cover obviously and has some creases as shown. Other bits are in good condition but have may the odd clip missing here and there. Don't really know what they are worth exactly but $70 seems reasonable?
  6. Looks like my old colour which was Delphine Metallic (Dolphin Grey). Far more and better colour choices those days.
  7. You can get your own advanced BMW scanning capabilities for the price of an old laptop (<$150) a $30 cable and some downloadable software. INPA will do do most of what you want and isnt too hard to operate. BMW scanner 1.4 is also good for a quick full system scans and quick reprogramming

    Quick rant thread.

    Certainty not limited by area. I've seen many people cause some hefty damage in my rear view over the years. When they hit someone else is when it becomes a bit unpleasant.
  9. Non xenon. Off a 2002 530i Msport
  10. SOLD Lens are in good nick but adjusters need replacing. Can supply wiring for PFL car conversion. $150
  11. 5x wheels 3x 17x8 and 2x 17x9. Fronts are the better condition ones.. Rears are worse with paint flaking but do look worse in photos due to angle. Spare is in perfect condition. 4x Newish Continental MC6 tyres in correct sizes with 6mm tread left. Spare in Dunlop SP with 5mm tread. Prefer pickup but maybe able to deliver them Auckland at some point. $650

    The Silver Titan

    If it starts again try a few packets of Dr Trannys Lubeguard. Ive had excellent results using it along with good fluid fluid change.
  13. You can get a single mass conversion solid flywheel kit off Speedfactor for ~1k last time i checked. DKM brand stage 1 which is uprated from stock, i couldn't find much info on it but Evan and the team know and support their products better than most.
  14. Seems like the kind of cars you would just auction off if you wanted the best price for them. I guess the OP may of undervalued or had more interest than expected so reneged.
  15. Yeah its little fiddly on these but yep Kerry would be the easiest option
  16. Dimensionally they are the same so they match up fine with starter gear, crank etc. They are slightly lighter than a regular M52\M54 so some sort of difference in machining or internal construction. Im using one in my car with a standard Luk clutch kit but personally i hate the self adjusting clutch.
  17. Possibly. Easy enough to test with multimeter and wouldnt hurt to check the plug and redo the self adjustment of the switch given had work on in that area.
  18. I always rated the RE050A quite well until PS4 came out but i would of thought they would of been superseded by now. Tyre pricing by size with the same make\model seems go all over the show so you do have to ring around sometimes.
  19. I asked a simple question which you interpreted it as hostile and offensive, it really wasn't, maybe its you being a newbie here or reading it wrong that gave that impressions but that the internet for you sometimes. You questioning where i work and my skills was you insult to me tbh. You know could of handled it better also. Im quite sure ive never questioned anyone on this forums skills. All information ive posted is for the most part my own experiences. You may well of had good intentions by offering but your post came across as shilling to me , your presence on this forums is basically none, no one to my knowledge has vouched for you and you provided little information that left it open to interpenetration. I gave a known recommendation from the very trusted source and you discounted it while putting forward your offering. I don't you I admit i was probably a bit ott on the shill call but I don't work on blind trust\information and always question anyone unknown offering anything, that''s just how i operate. When people pull the patronizing card when questioned by someone with less perceived knowledge over simple things then i lose respect for them. As to your question - Ive already answered that above but that there are plenty of areas that are simple enough in this world that you don't need decades to knowledge to grasp or make the safer call. I honestly hope the OP buys the ZF kit for less than $170 that should of been offered at the start so everyone can win.
  20. Depends on the person i suppose, none of the E46 and E39's ive used PS4's were technically sports cars but having more grip is always an advantage to me especially if you have make an emergency maneuver in the wet etc. Certainly better street rubber available that costs even more and i think PS4 are fairly well priced in comparision.
  21. Self proclaimed expert here is clearly yourself. Ive never claimed to be expert so you are just making assumptions about me over the internet. Ive been been ordering and fitting solely BMW parts for over a decade, so of course I'm going to question when some random business tries to sell some unknown offering with zero info and blind trust. If 30 years of experience means you can't answer a simple question without getting offended then that's on you.
  22. Still haven't said who makes it so why would anyone take your word and buy a unknown product just because its a little cheaper?. Its common knowledge some aftermarket filters have qaulity issues. If you actually viewed the link you would see that it is a filter kit with a known quality gaskets and new plugs, the filter itself is $50 NZD (it you can get it for that then awesome) I don't sell parts i fit them for a living. We buy all sorts of parts off known reputable companies with actual warranties and not random internet shills.
  23. Hankook are a well known brand but generally not top tier. Depends on your budget but id recommend Michellin PS4's from Hyper, RE003 or S007A(if available) from Bridgestone
  24. Why doesn't the key work? You should be able to manually turn it 45 degrees anti clockwise to unlock.
  25. As above the engine in your car is known to be problematic. Many owner discover this expensive way unfortunately because of buying first and asking questions later. GL with it
