    Switch Blanks

    im after 2 of the blank switches for the centre console, instead of hazard light switches etc.....after discovering they are $16 at the dealer i didnt get them...funny that...

    back seat E30

    ive got daves old one...only thing is im up in aucks..
  3. Gus

    leaks :(

    or manual racks....c.7 hundy if you trade in your old rack....around 960 if you but it straight out...this is new from bmw...save some weight, get a quicker turn.....its what im going to do....extra reliability too...one less thing to go wrong
  4. my old one? interesting..i never noticed....good job grant

    Happy Birthday Gus

    and by the way, ill be having drinks at the copper room in taka if anyone from the bimmersport crew wants to pop their head in...grant especially....your not on msn today! disappointed
  6. i wouldnt worry about new springs....try new rear shocks and see how that goes..it might help the problem a lot....theres no real way to match shocks and springs yourself....bilsteins are a good general shock and go with a lot of springs...konis are adjustable so can be partially matched....basically as long as it doesnt bounce its good!

    Happy Birthday Gus

    haha...brazier my ass....that was 2 years ago! thanks guys....im not drinking tonite though something tells me i will be damn peer pressure
  8. seen it so many times...but so mint....personally i would go for a 4l v8....but v12 is just plain cool
  9. the thing with stock shocks with lower (usually firmer springs) is that the shock cannot control the extra force being applied when the car moves...so the car bounces...this bouncing (like my car) unsettles the car greatly going round corners.....the difference is very noticeable going sideways...mine snaps back into line a lot quicker than andys...being his his sorta glides back into line very easily....brand new stock shocks will feel good...but the thing is that using lower springs f**ks them up....after another 6 months you will be bouncing again i imagine....ask andy his 320 ones were good at first (very little bounce) but then they started bouncing after a couple of months
  10. not possible or if possible pointlessly expensive....e30 doesnt have any of the sensors the s54 relies on....plus its not reknown for its reliability....just ask all the e46 m3 owners with pistons sticking out their alloy blocks
  11. bent rear trailing arms and subframe? i know mine was and possibly still is to some degree....the only way is replacement....bear in mind that car weight plays a big part....i have same springs as andy (albeit he has bilsteins) and his car has about a degree less rear camber...purely because his car is lighter so rides higher...stock shocks and lowering springs kinda sucks...leave it 4x4 till you can afford to do both would be my recommendation (having been there)

    SI road trip

    late sept/early oct could be could good...depending on the race craft meet....i should have bilsteins by then

  17. or 'borrow' another e34 m5 rego.....only problem is finding one....
  18. just drive it....would it not be easier to convert over to RHD....prob not...what are the penalties for driving a LHD car? looks awesome...e34 m5s are beautiful pieces of machinery
