Grant, have you used a blackberry? Can the iphone be used along similar lines?

absolutely f**king awesome! ^^JDM Tony in a paddock!

you might want to know there is a $1 buy now on them too.. if you got any more pics of them mounted, I might be keen

Is that Gerry's old car?

hmm back to standard!

^^^ i believe it did come from Howick originally

seems a shame to part it out..is the rust really that bad?? have seen some nightmare cars over here that have been restored...just remember they arent making any more.

cheers guys! over near amsterdam with my folks for a week...pretty good having time off! treating myself to an M42 engine swap for the touring when I get back!

buy a black 325/323/328

they are indeed - nice having the peace of mind! Andy, update us!!

haha thanks guys! Might buy a set - going to be phone ordering so will see what I can get Thanks guys - I have a feeling the starter ones might be 17mm - although that could just be the rangi cars I have worked on in the past! might order it to be safe Thanks fullas!! A

are you sure it needs all 3?? I only remember it needing 2? somehow I knew it would be you replying foxy!!

Can someone confirm for me what size torx are needed for the e30 gearbox, is it 12 and 14?? or is it 10 and 12? getting rusty!! Thanks! Angus

oh yeah ^^

not mine obviously, but some guy in Sweden's badass project http://www.e30tech.com/forum/showthread.ph...2613&page=9

nice pics!

v true ^^ wrecker does sound like a wanker though this is why i do my own work!

monster! i like it

good to see you on here Peter...best of luck with the sale!

^^ there is exceptions....such as if it is for personal use. I will need to confirm that 100% but when I looked into it a while ago I'm sure there were no issues

i should be able to bring the touring back if i want...I will be owning it more than 3 months no engines..way too much hassle to go and pick up..plus i already have 300 hp rough plan is to fill the touring and bring that back - prob same cost as bringing the parts themselves tech 2 kit is for a coupe..maybe back in nz.. a bit undecided about keeping it 316 took about 10mins since i bought it to reach 100mph cost £470 with a full tank of gas (with gas arond £1.18 a L thats a decent chunk of change) forgot to mention, it's Pam's car too - ripe for some euro touring!

I had a fairly eventful saturday..nearly 500 miles of driving, 13 hours out n about... heres what happened my collection under the stairs my view from the bathroom and the new car..1994 E30 316i Touring typical ripped seats she's a little rusty, overheats (had to have coolant bleed on the way home), and misfires at 100mph in 5th gear but im gettting quite fond of her!

i completely missed this thread! for your 10k budget my car could have been bought with a large chunk of change...this is why I snapped it up! loving kerrys m50 idea...makes the swap much easier i imagine - have def liked the alloy block idea for a while. FI is the best way to go on a limited budget - turbo m20 would pwn

they all sound pretty badass - got any more details?

that's just nasty still a winner baby!
