  1. They won't sorry, wheels are 4x108:(
  2. I know I have thanked you already Josh, but I'll say it again, thanks for the awesome job on the video! It is funny how your memory forgets a lot of the details, and how much fun it is to drive that thing:) I have watched it several times, and this reminds me of what all the hard work was for! For those who didn't know, Jase was a very good friend of mine, and he was going to come and drive the car at HD. Would have been great to see what he could have done, I know he would have kicked butt! Conrad
  3. I just got a new battery charger for the laptop yesterday (after the crappy chinese one I was sold last week failed to work!) So I will have a look today and see if it recorded anything in the logger. Look forward to seeing those vids, I know with your attention to detail it will be good! cheers Conrad
  4. Thats the first time I have seen some action pics of my car (nice pics too) - thanks! Conrad
  5. There was turbo and non turbo versions of the CSL, as well as turbo and non turbo versions of the E21 320i, plenty of pics about on the net:)
  6. and yes I am happy if you text any questions to me, but keep it real people, use proper English and send them during regular hours, up to lets say 9pm, not 12.30am like someone did the other night! P.S. FAQ:will these tyres pass a warrant? A: yes they probably will. They have easily more than minimum tread over 75% of the tyres width which is the WOF requirement. But the value is in the rims, and should be treated as such, tyres like this are worth nothing in my view. If you buy these and get knocked back for a WOF then that will be your problem. SOLD!
  7. still for sale! The last set sold so quickly too!
  8. reduced to $500 set won't be going lower! SOLD
  9. sorry I should have mentioned that - Auckland. Conrad
  10. Might as well be green and recycle this old ad! I have another set of these OZ wheels for sale, same again,5x120, 17"x8", ET35,all with centre caps, these have kerb rash on all wheels to varying degrees.(nothing too serious though) Tyres are Potenzas, although all worn on inside edge. Would make great race car wheels, a good size with plenty of brake clearance. Rare in this fitment. Suit E36/E46 etc. $600 set. PM or SOLD
  11. 15-20cm?? Are you serious???
  12. Thinking about it, I was comparing to E30 arms, I didn't realise the compact had a wider track. The MZ3 also has different brake caliper mountings that will take the big M3 calipers.
  13. 1.8 Z3: same as Compact I think. 2.8 Z3: I don't think the arms are any wider. They use a wide offset drive flange and a brake disc with a really deep "hat" to match. I think they widen the rear track about 50mm per side, so they can fill the wider rear arches on the non M Z3 with the same size wheels as fitted to the front. You can fit these to the compact arms, but it just has the same effect as using wheel spacers. MZ3: about 20mm wider per side, and they use much higher offset rear wheels to fill the arches. These arms are the ones to have, they have the bigger brakes (same as E36 M3) and use much bigger driveshafts/CV joints than the non M arms. I think the wheel bearing is larger diameter too. Hard to find though.

    some of the engine bulders in Europe have squeezed around 420hp out of these, 2.7L and 11000 rpm hillclimb engines, frequent rebuilds though! A friend of mine in the Sth Island has a 390hp 2.7L, and it makes mine look very "ordinary!" No problem, it is on an engine stand at the moment, but still assembled. Give me a couple of months and I will have two of them here!
