  2. 3pedals - the way i see your comment is; it doesn't matter what we drive, it's how we drive. i completely agree.

    My new 325i

    lookin good a. the sharp edges on the e30 should be better. i'd love to see your e36 parked round by cheapskates/quest lol.
  4. time well spent. if your a young male, and drink coke at the cricket/rugby, expect some big dude in a fluro jacket to put his snotty nose next to it or just have someone on the inside , my mates a crusader horseman, so not only do we get in free, all our 'beverages' come into to.
  5. cheers. looks like ill still be doin 3819 rpm at a 100kph with current diff. might have to get a new diff (aw might as well get an lsd whilst im at it ).
  6. well my manual conversion is calling, so i'm organising things now, before i go to uni. then ill try get it done first holidays. my first lil' question (of many) is about the ratios of the manual gear box (trying to figure out if i'll be revving my guts out at 100kph). the gearbox is out of pre-facelift 320i. i think it was an 86/87? the gearbox is a getrag 240? i've done a little research and two ratios have popped up. which one will it be? i) 1st: 3.764 2nd: 2.325 3rd: 1.612 4th: 1.229 5th: 1.000 ii) 1st: 3.72 2nd: 2.02 3rd: 1.32 4th: 1.00 5th: 0.81 cheers antony.
  7. a lil' off topic, but all this diff talk has got me interested in what mine is, as im doing a manual conversion soon. i had a quick look under my car but couldn't see anything. its stamped on it somewhere? where? cheers antony.
  8. stayed up last night to watch, and it showed this morning when i was late for work . you can't blame players themselves, you've got to look at key areas where the game broke down. which is a combined effort between the batters at the crease and the bowling side. you can blame batters all you want, but some times its just good bowling and great captaincy (which is why fleming has to stay). some key moments were a tail ender (plunket) hitting 15? of bonds last over, 255 wouldve been a much more achieveable target. and the wickets of vincent and taylor. that is when the momentum of the game slowed. after that there was no 'designated hitter'. fleming shouldve seen this and taken it on himself. but as he continued on as an anchor there was to much f**kn around, which is when wickets come, and come they did. i think vaughan made a huge difference to england, and took a huge load off flintoff which showed in his bowling. new zealand will go like the england off late with out fleming, no strong leadership and expirence. now theres my over analysation of the simple gentlemans game antony
  9. my old 17's were et35. they would rub at the front on the strut when you turned at full lock. et20 will fill your gaurd nicely. and +1 for pics

    my e30

    aw yeah, handles like a gem. you really notice it in car parks etc, steering wheel is so much lighter. and bilstiens ftw if you like your open road driving.

    my e30

    thanks. as cheesy and cliche as it is, it makes it worth while a. yeah car gets dirty real quick around here. and being the west coast (best coast lol) the sun gets real low at night, hence the light under the gaurds etc. once ive done a lil more (smoked headlights, black euro plates) ill put up some good photos.

    my e30

    ok finally got some photos. they were rushed tonight in poor light, and taken in our 'retirement village' subdivision (no backgrounds secretly promoting the coast this time ). the photos REALLY don't do the wheels justice. been talking to drifty325, and we rekon a lil lower at the front and some spacers to really fill the guards. and one with the turbo
  20. i did. am also looking to play in dunners? semi serious.
  21. england vs. new zealand england batted first 7/270 off 50 overs. lets hope flem can gets some runs tonight.
  22. that hq is durrrrty; so gore styles.
  23. cheers, just what ive been looking for. E: you could really do that in any colour. lol.
  24. hey. really liking your car a. i'm particularly interested in your smoked headlights. i sort of get what you mean, but i want to do it once and do it right a. do you reckon you could do a right up, or ellaborate. or is it really not that difficult and i just need to give it a go. cheers antony aw yea 17" alpinas ftw (sorta like hens teeth over here)

    X5's

    fast 4x4 are scary as hell, i would take a high spec diesel a. i mean are you really looking for performance out of a 4x4. like my dads got a ford territory turbo, and all its power is just pointless, just driving normal you have to really concentrate on the speed your going into a corner, it really creeps up on you. my mates mum has a really high spec'd x5, a real nice car, and a good option if you go the 4x4 route
