nipe 1 Report post Posted May 31, 2010 As above, I'm not organising anything, but I think a few people wanted one of these kits and if a few of us get it together we could probably save a bit on the freight costs. It is just a thought, but feel free to flame me if the topic is silly. Thanks P.S. I'm referring to: The page Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Technically speaking, you need a cert. If done properly though, I don't think anyone (WOF AVI) would notice. A certifier might notice when certing your car, so you need to make sure its done properly ie: the welding Edited May 31, 2010 by *Glenn* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted May 31, 2010 I can get the 4 bolts, 4 washers and 4 nuts from BMW NZ $146 incl Gst. Would just need to get the milled plates from overseas. 8 for each car or we could get a couple and see how much a local engineer would charge to copy them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A certifier might notice when certing your car, so you need to make sure its done properly ie: the welding yeah thought that may possibly be the case. ordinarily i wouldnt take the risk but seeing as the car has to go through cert anyway i might as well get them ticked off while they are at it I can get the 4 bolts, 4 washers and 4 nuts from BMW NZ $146 incl Gst. Would just need to get the milled plates from overseas. 8 for each car or we could get a couple and see how much a local engineer would charge to copy them So BMW actually made these? or do they just happen to stock bolts that fit? if its the former its a wonder they dont stock the plates as well.. or are the $1000 a piece or something stupid typical of BMW?

*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted May 31, 2010 (edited) The bolts, washers & nuts are out of E39 & E46 M3 CSL rear suspension. BMW do not make the plates because they are already built into the rear subframes on these vehicles. Edited May 31, 2010 by *Glenn* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nipe 1 Report post Posted June 1, 2010 I'm fairly keen, price dependant however and when they will be ordered.I'm wanting to order them asap, as I need to start welding them on quite soon:) Getting the bolts locally will also decrease the cost of shipping too!

_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted June 2, 2010 im sure you could sell some of these on trademe, if you can be bothered and want to make some cash on the side. Makes pricing better for all of us and allows for late posts such as above me? your call. still keen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nipe 1 Report post Posted June 3, 2010 (edited) That's what he had to say: 7-9 kits would be $69.95 per kit including shipping of all kits in one box to NZ via Insured USPS International Priority Mail. 10-19 Kits would be $64.95 per kit including the above shipping. 20+ kits would be $59.95 per kit including the above shipping. And I believe these are in US$ Edited June 3, 2010 by nipe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
