  1. Build one of these instead it, would make a change from usual NZdrift mag aka NZPC. http://stayclassyatlanta.com/gnarly-bmw-2002-rat-rod/

  3. Then you should also be able to use the standard Alpine 6 CD cart as a replacement. (you could buy that stacker for the cart) Or you can go here and buy an alpine one for $30 usd or with same thing BMW logo for $50 usd. http://www.nextag.com/cd-changer-cartridge/compare-html One of the bmw parts supplier on here might also be able to help
  4. Same shape as this one ? http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-...n-467384504.htm
  5. What about finding someone in NZ that shaves dot tyres for racing. They maybe able to remove enough of the tread to line up with the flat spot ?

    I want a dog now !
  10. 205's wouldn't be legal on the widths above. 215's would be ok on the front but the rears could be a problem. http://www.lvvta.org.nz/documents/infoshee...ility_Guide.pdf
  11. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_5_Series_(E34) Some more bits above
  12. providing that you haven't change to led replacements check and clean the bulb connectors and spray the plug and socket with electrical cleaner. Had a similar thing happen.
  13. Haven't seen this type of film for a while. Kind of like falling down http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi389284633/
  14. If he's doing this now what will he achieve later in life. Just shows that age isn't necessary a barrier to vision. Some might say brought up with a silver spoon , others might say he has is entrepreneurial. Come to think of it most of the people that I know that have built up serious money left school early but had a vision of want they wanted to achieve and do this early in there careers. v10 z3m would be a great way to enjoy some of the efforts.
  15. Gidday Paul , looks great in white. Keep your eyes out for a Blue M coupe. Was following it around Taupo track on Saturday. Looks like they handle well !
  16. wiki talking torque http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_3_Series_(E46)
  17. That Silver m3 in front of you was fast eh !
  18. The cliffhanger motorcycle hillclimb has a road closed for a couple of days a year (as does a cycling event). The Carterton Mayor supported the event with minimal charges and even goes to the extent of providing a large gen set for the pit area for free. He even went to the point of leading the sighting run on a couple of ocasions and would also turn up for the fundrasing 1/4 and flying 1/4 Sprints. Nothing anywhere near $30k for the closures. There is a car hillclimb that is also run on a near by road. Similar deal for the car event which I'm hoping to compete in next year.
  19. Makes you wonder on the lost trade for the township of Ohakune in the ski off season. I take it the picnickers aren’t involved or don’t care about many of the Town’s business reliance of the visitor trade. Compare this to the Wiararapa which has no motorsport facilities yet has a very active motorsport Calendar. The Councils and Mayor’s are very support of any event that brings visitors & $$$ into the region and don’t mind roads to be closed to do so. Just another reason not to visit Ohakune. The've cancelled 10% of the years event calendar in one swoop. http://www.ohakune.info/whyohakune/events-news.php
  20. A fav of my http://www.youtube.com/user/Hillclimbfans
  21. Going down a similar route. Have the mk4 & BM53 tuner. I haven't got around to adding RCA's mod to the bm53 yet . Have a bunch of amps and speakers to replace the factory setup. Brought a netbook with 700 odd cd's to replace the cd stacker running via de Ibus adaptor controlled via the 16:9 screen.The netbook also has a usb bluray player cd/dvd/bluray duties should they be needed. Also want to add reverse cam and parrot bluetooth to replace jap telephone module at a later date.
  22. Had an issue running acs type I's 16x8 et 35's with 225/55/16's on the rear of my old E36 325i Coupe. Rear arches were rolled. Had problems with Uniroyals rubbing on the odd occasion , but bridgestones seemed ok. Was also running BMW standard M suspension setting which meant tyres lasted well. Fonts never caused any problems.
