Forrest 35 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 (edited) I want one, figure if can get a group of people together who want to install one of these in their e30's. I'm sure SIRE30 (Jason) can help us out with this and cut us a good deal. Here is a good DIY for anyone interested: http://www.e30zone.net/e30zonewiki/index.p...fter_conversion (let me know if the link works). Post up here if you want one. 1. Forrest 2. Indecorous 3.

Forrest 35 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 ^ 110 to 120 is if I was buying one solely, so a little less than that if a group of us did obviously. I am waiting for Jase to get back to me, he will know more than me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steve R 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 the Z3 shifter is an OEM part, so it shouldnt matter that much? i have one in my e36 and its great Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SIR E30 68 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 Ive got the Z3 shifter in my car, easy install plus a great difference in the feel/length of the shift. (shift not shaft) I can get these parts out to anyone at the discounted price of $100.60+postage If I can get a group buy there is a possibility of a further discount. PM for more details Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeddy 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 ^^^I'm keen at that price or potentially lower Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forrest 35 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 (edited) 100 for the shifter arm + 26 for the plastic cup you need to replace it. And that price is just if 1 person was buying it, so discounted for more people joined. Edited June 23, 2009 by Forrest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nobimmer 694 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 Yep keen at that price or lower. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SIR E30 68 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 Does it come with other bits like new bushes/other bits or is it just the shifter?As nath said, I can get the bushing for $26.I just want to emphasise that the group buy discount is only a possibility. Depending on what BMW says when my guy asks. Based on previous experience they should be ok but just be prepared to pay $100 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brentf 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 hey guys, I dont know if any one is interested or not. But when i did mine i also changed the bush that is at the gearbox end that attaches to the selector shaft. I dont know if you can buy them so i made my own looks exactly like the ones on the bottom of the z3 shifter.If any one is interested i can do a right up or even machine them for you. Thanks Brent Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SIR E30 68 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 UPDATE: Looks like we are getting some good interest this. Payment/delivery is yet to be confirmed, I will wait and see how long people keep requesting them for. Ashkan: The bush you replace is the plastic cup that goes around the ball of the shifter arm, you can also replace the metal sleeves that go inside the shifter linkages but that isnt necessary. Brent: Im keen and im sure a few others are, what sort of money would you be looking at for your product? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted June 23, 2009 $100 is a good price for genuine Z3 1.9 shifters. Especially if that includes Gst & freight. The best I could do for members was $110 incl Gst Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
