get a job, then you wont be home while they skate

id be pretty keen for those. where abouts are you?

Mate i had the exact same problem, started on sat night and fixed it today. all i had to do was take the air idle valve out and clean it (with brake cleaner, carb cleaner etc) and also the throttle body, pretty much the whole air intake system just got a good clean. put it back togeather and after maybe 10 mins of running it was back to normal. easy thing to try even if it doesnt work for you, worked for me and its free. so glad i didnt have to replace anything haha :lollies:

dont really have a budget. just a savings account haha

Loaded it up ready to go to Hamilton on Friday. It is sitting loooow. And pretty fricken crowded, even though I dropped plenty off my list when I realised it wasn't gonna fit.

I took mine to powercruise last year, managed to fit 4 people, a HUGE tent, and all the gear we needed to survive the weekend, plus my sub box ( 2x12" subs)

These things have such handy boots

was sitting very low though haha

Ahh yeah, those were a mint deal. I was just waiting for my paycheck to pay for them when you snapped them up! Even had transport to Auckland sorted hah.

Interested to see what the look like on an e30.

Haha sorry about that... ... was such a good deal i couldn't resist, was exactly what id been looking for and was getting my diff from there at the same time so was convenient.

Heres the pics... not the best as i was in a rush to get to course, but they do the job..

Planning on lowering the front more, flaring the guards a bit, just do what i have to to make it fit.

Just not sure how to lower it ( Eg. new springs? compressing current springs? adjustables?... not sure)

You didn't buy them off Jono from JK southern euro earlier this year did you? Pics?

haha yup exactly those ones, dont have any decent pics but will get some asap and post them up

Love the e30s with wide wheels, mines got 17x9 with a 15 offset. looks sick, except had to do a bit of guard modifying at the back (hammer) and will have to do the front if i lower it more... good luck finding the right wheels

I did the same thing a few months back.

diff did the exact same thing, so i just replaced it, only cost $100 for the diff itself and did the work myself, not too hard to do.

hope it was at least a good skid... mine wasnt

good luck bro

EDIT* my axles didnt pop out though (not that i know of anyway), diff was just making horrible noises and the whole car clunked when going round corers, the teeth on some of the gears in the diff were just gone

Bump for this

Also have an e30 tow bar that will be available for sale if buyer hasn't made contact within the week. I need it gone so will be $1 reserve if no interest here. Pm if you want it. Pick up only although may be able to get it delivered to Auckland by the one and only

how much for the tow bar? been needing one of those for a while now just havnt got around to it

I have another one listed if anyones interested $1 reserve pickup or I can deliver in wellington only. Check for sale thread

First bid!! i really want this ay hope that guy doesnt want more to sell off for stupid prices haha

+1 for the Wellington Meets Pretty keen to meet some locals

Sam, car looks REAL nice. Love those shapes but I'm too bloody big to fit in them lol.

thanks mate. yeah they arnt the biggest ay. but yeah i love them

Dunno about expertise, more like trial and error.

Welcome Sam, I'm from Tawa, just sing out if you need a hand with anything, saw your car out driving the other day.

Also have some blue leather recaro seats front and rear with matching door cards too if your interested, cheap cheap ha. Not in mint condition though, can do for closer to a third of what the trademe dude wants.

Sweet cheers mate will do. and any chance of a picture of the seats? email them to samcinnz@hotmail.com if thats algud. thanks

Yup, but you know there will be one next time I'm back. I'll make sure of it (again lol).

Welcome to the forum btw, I'm from Porirua too haha, and gonna be back there in a few months. Plenty of local expertise around there if you ever need a hand. (Brams, flake, me etc )

Cheers. Haha awesome glad i joined up, i wasn't sure how many people from welly would be here, but guess i came to the right place

some seats for you , and in your area

Thanks for the help, already looked at these and came close to buying them, very nice seats. but cant really afford 850 at the moment, otherwise id have them already

welcome! welly meets are few and far between, but we look forward to meeting you at the next one

Thanks, ill definitely be there

Thanks for the help

Cheers, yeah i think your right about the bumper, never really thought about it but ill have a look.

Got tons of plans for it, but being a student with a part time job makes it a tad hard haha.

For the moment just want new seats and an alarm.

Eventually want new rims, lower at the front, put a kit on it, tail lights, get something a bit more powerful than the standard motor, the list goes on.

But for now the seats will do haha
