Over working on my car and not really in a position to keep taking it to pieces which is a real shame. It has only recently become apparent to me how much I just need to have a cheap run about instead of using my project car as a means to get from A to B so hence why I am seriously but reluctantly going to try to sell this. I have spent some hours on it so I wouldn't be happy with just giving it away so if I don't get the right price I will just hold on to it and probably park it up somewhere until I can be bothered to take the project back on and get it really nice, that may be some time though. I thought I might have a couple of decent pictures of it lying around but only this at the moment: The body work is pretty good although there are a few scratches here and there, the paint on the roof and the rear doors back has faded. It has a new engine with 132,xxx Kms on it. Radiator is new Engine oil recently done Brake rotors have been resurfaced Power steering fluid Steering bushing replaced New Brake fluid New gear box oil converted to manual (Getrag 240) Crackless dash in great condition. Battery retro fit relocated to boot 2 sets of wheels, tires. Lowered rear suspension and camber (untastefully low, not done by me. Not sure about the front) Sub, amp, 6x9's and head unit I will try and get some better pictures and some more information if anyone on here is actually interested. I thought I would start on bimmersport as I have the old engine and some spare parts I wouldn't mind getting rid of with the car if it does sell. So an enthusiast might be after the whole lot who knows. Anyway cheers.

Hey people, I've done something kinda dumb - long story, won't bore you but I fed a hook through a hole in the sheet metal just below the boot latch (body side) then closed the boot. It won't open now of course, doesn't matter whether locked or not and the central locking appears to be still working via key and from unlocking at the front doors... I believe the lock mechanism itself is fine, but the hook is obstructing the release of the catch. Two questions: do any of you know a way into an e28 boot that doesn't involve cutting?! wall behind the back seat is solid steal. do any of you have a boot lid that I can buy if I have get the tin opener out? e30 boots are apparently identical. Colour is light metalic blue. It's one of those ridiculous problems... Of course the boot was/is full of camping gear and food for the weekend just gone by... Cheers

since I bought my e30 last year, i've been really eager on removing the universal type antenna installed as it doesn't retract and it's not fitted properly but i can't find an original replacement(second-hand of-course). I don't listen that much on AM/FM so the replacement is just for cosmetics, I've seen a couple but they're always missing the important bits. After checking forums I decided to just go with rubber plugs. it took me a while but I was finally able to get an alternative from Supercheap. 1" blank grommet, it's a tad bigger than what i need as antenna hole is ≈22MM(7/8" will be a better fit) but it's the only size available in the store here's how it sits now

Has any one got a cheap one for an e30 face lift? Its the plastic surround that fits in between the tail lights, I'm after the wider euro type as I think they top off the look of the rear really nicely. Cheers

Feel free to ask me any questions. Cheers Nick

Just looking for some seats for my e30 2 door if anyone has any that would be great

We need a pair of 20mm hubcentric spacers (preferably bolt on) for an e30. Center bore size is 57.1 and 4x100 pcd. The recess in the bak of the spacer, which centralizes on the hub, needs to be deeper than the standard 10mm that most spacers are as bmw hubs stick out more (13mm in our case i think). Have been hunting everywhere and coming up short. And we need them before the 4&rotor jamboree so ASAP!!!! Message me if anyone has any for sale

My beautiful 325i for sale about two months ago did a full service at BM Workshop. Had the oil sump replaced, cambelt changed and a new computer also put in. Car has been covered for all of my ownership and the previous owner was an elderly man who also kept in the garage. The engine is super clean as the first owner got it from SA and completely brought it to almost new condition. The car is a manual and it flies with the 6 cylinder engine. Full leather interior. Come take a look and a test drive if you have proof of funds. Looking for 7000.

Hey all, The viscous fan on my e28 ETA is not engaging fully anymore so rather than replacing it I thought I might remove it and fit an electric fan instead. Has anyone done something like this / have suggestions for fitting a fan from a later model? Any thoughts on it very welcome. I'm not the most electrically literate but I think I could sort it with the right advice.. Tom

After a winder for my sunroof (car: 525e E28 but I suspect the same was found on e30s from the 80s too) They commonly break apparantly. I pretty much just need the handle and what ever rotating parts etc, spring/clip comes with it. Am in Dunedin but I'll pay for freight... Not looking to spend too much - it's a Scottish ancestry thing Tom

just got a 1990 e30 318i, and has a slightly major problem with it. unable to select any of the bottom row of gears. pretty much, the linkage is too beaten up from the right shape, so does anyone have one that will fit?

Hey guys, just after some leather seats for my 318i e30, 1989. It currently has just stock seats in them that are in insanely good condition but leather looks a lot sexier! If you know of anyone selling please let me know.

Hello all. New member with a love of the old e30's. I have an '89 320i. Have done easy mechanical bits (changed belts etc), but it's dropping oil & my possibilities to fix it are limited in both experience & ability. Any of you guys know of a mechanic i can go to in Christchurch who will make all my mechanical issues vanish? Was thinking to have an engine / transmission overhaul. Any leads appreciated. Cheers James

Hi, I have an m50b25 single vanos (e36) and am slowing rebuilding it as I can afford parts. (for my e30) I need to remove the head, so I put cylinder 1 at TDC. I did this and saw that the journals on the end of the camshafts were not completely square with the block (arrow on exhaust sprocket wasn't perpendicular either)... so I couldn't get the locking tool on properly. So for some reason I decided to take the vanos off to see if it would make a difference - it made it worse. Can anyone advise me how to remove the head now that the timing is out - and how to time the cams when I come to put the head back on. Thanks!
