-
and there is heaps of 535s around isn t there?....ive seen a lot....would it work with the e30 gearbox? theres not many manual e34's
-
hmmmmmmmmmmmm....315 nM of torque.......that would be soo nice to drive....although after what happened tonite i dont think i need any more power just yet
-
horrible is that rotary powered merc.....hideousness at it worst......BMW's powered by jappas....arent really rice....i know this has been done to death but rice to me isnt japanese full stop....its making your car look ghey......the japs make some bloody good engines.....SR20DET, RB26DETT, amongst others.....reliable and powerful.....purpose built for forced induction....all good attributes....there a realistic alternative here in NZ where all we get is jap imports....parts are cheap and plentiful...it may not be everyones cup of tea...but if it goes fast...who really cares?
-
yeah no changed the fuse...still flashed like i was at a dance party
-
yeah....today my left indicator started flashing really fast.....my right one is sweet the fuses are all good....any help anyone? i hate it......irritating
-
glenn...im interested in the idea of the m30...been thinking bout it for a while...not that im going to do it anytime soon but hey....graham bellars is doing one isnt he? i love the idea of so much torque, how much does the m30 weigh? the s38 was in the m1 wasnt it? i imagine that would be nigh on impossible to get one.....although now glenn is going to tell me that it came out of another bmw that is very common???
-
yeah....they look awesome....would love a pair if i hadnt already fallen for alpinas...and if they werent so hard to get hold of....anyone know the price on a par new from BMW?
-
hmmmmm....i say if the engine goes fast it goes fast...doesnt really matter....not all jappas are rice....make some damn good engines...i would be keen on a SR20DET swap.....4 cylinder power! but i dont know what i will be doing eventually, am interested in the 2.7 swap, could make a Alpina B3 2.7 Replica
-
andrew had a old digital clock lying around....not sure if he has the end your after though...sure he will read this
-
ive got some carlsson 18 mags of a merc kicking around if u want to do a mercedes hub swap! 285/35R18 on the back....245/35/R18 on the front! but on a serious note....the M3 replicas i like more....i take it you mean the 19" replicas in 17"?
-
also...i love alpina rims... but im wanting to get them someday...and they similar to your current ones....will prob come up with more suggestions! Tarmac Evos!
-
i like the M5 replicas.....the otheres are a little too simple for my liking...and i dont really like the chrome with E3o, looks too boyracerish.....i like your rims! haha....the m5's have a nice multispoke design and should be nice n wide...anyway they've got my vote
-
very funny tim. NOW i can get the fogs out in 10 mins it was just that once.....could have taken me about 5 if i had used my head
-
haha..will have to do a comparison between my jamex superlows when the fronts come out
-
andrews is 84.....ill be putting in sooner or later and mine was also made in SA but is 88 so ill let you know how mine goes...hopefully will be easier!
-
had myself a quiet chuckle over that.....very handy! next...E30's......
-
nice....liked the WRX donut.....kinda not that many bimmers for a BMW autox!
-
woohoo! no more 4X4......tint look surprisingly good on orange....hate those mirror tints....so rice! spose its good for security though....
-
if you throw in some bottle cap roundels its sweet.....ill give you a call....may run into $$ probs but will let you know next week
-
where did you get yours from? that sound pretty reasonable....an hour? bear in mind i am the man who took an hour to get my fog lamp out....clever eh?
-
ok instead of adding as i think of stuff...i wrote it down...can i have quotes on the following parts: drivers door bolt (there is 3 just bolted into the door....im missing one) rear ashtray Rear right passenger grab handle rear left door lever interior surround radiator clip (little plastic thing that holds the radiator in place) fuel filter rubber surround (now im just getting picky) oil cooler radiator, down near the front bumper mine has accident damage spark plug lead cover and out of interest viscous fan clutch? and does any of the cars have any BMW tools left? cheers
-
does any of the cars have mtech springs? for a Facelift 325i...need to replace the jamex superlows that came with my car....oh and also...how much for the 325 exhaust?
-
hey, im going to be looking for a whole bunch of little parts for the car....ill give you a list as soon as i make one....the last owner left me a helluva lot of nuts and bolts short!
-
yeah....ive seen other 325s like...however the back half of mine was replaced by the previous owner with 1 half the same size and one of the normal dual exhausts. pure brilliance.
