Cheers mate, the 5-spokes are Zender, too.

That black one is hot.

abeazer wrote:how do you put a switch on your aerial to choose when you want it up or down?

Easy - just have a switch to make or break the ignition feed to it.

I remember!

What a SHIT drive up that was, it took me 2 and a half hours from Brighton... I was so stressed by the end of it that I ended up parking on the curb and damaging my front wheel - I was gutted...

Nice pictures, cheers!

Put them up! I'd like to see them!

Bodge... Just buy a new one!

Cheers chaps, I've actually got some original Zender wheels that are rarer than rocking horse poo to go on: http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/7356/20100729001.jpg http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/7053/20100729004.jpg http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/525/20100729002c.jpg Zender wheels, because: ...

No, because my E30 is now in a scrapyard.

Oh, I meant turning some 8x16's to 9 x 16 4 x 100

I figured, just wanted to rub it in a bit.

I could do it if you really wanted them wider?

Don't ruin geniune Alpinas - get some BKs to do it with.

I've sorted the rear brake problem, thanks anyway! :D I didn't understand why it was making racket, even after I'd cleaned the rear calipers out, and even re-made a new set of rear pistons on a grinding lathe. New discs and different pad material has sorted it. :D Forgot to mention - it's 3.5 by the...

Cheers!

What flavour did you nearly buy? M535i?

I've got 9J Alpinas on my 328i.

Bit of an update. First thing was new rear discs and pads, because I couldn't figure out for the life of me why the rear brakes kept squealing, even if I wasn't pressing the brake pedal at all! Hope this fixes it... I've taken the Zender wheels off so that I can make them all sparkly for shows, and ...

Not entirely sure to be honest, somewhere between Somerset and the M3!

Took some pictures the other night whilst I was bringing her back to Brighton.

Danthe's White monster is tesco value toasters. The motor is on his VERY nice black chromie still just as it's coming out to make room for a 3.2 alpina lump :cool: I hope this doesn't upset you too much winkeye :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: That white E30 with the twin Scorpion lo...

Genuine reason for sale - I keep getting stopped in it because the local rozzers know me by name.

In no order...

DanThe's white monster.
D6DPH.
vokietis' E28 (HERE) and probably my favourite.
Rav335uk's cabby (without the eyebrows!)
DRIFTBOY's 335i turbo.

I also love the look of Maxfield's white thing:

I think it looks 100 times better, nice work mate!

I got roughly 32-34 from mine, driving like a bit of an old man, hooning it every now and then.

The one with the aerobics step spoiler looks like it wants a fight with the rest of them...

I'm after an amp to run a sub for now, and further down the line, I'll need another one to run separate speakers which will be actively crossed over. Can anyone recommend a good sub and good amplifier please? I don't want a 10,000,000,000W power handling sub, and likewise, I don't want an amplifier ...

Sorry mate, probably wasn't paying full attention!

They're 10.9 grade which means they aren't plastic (8.8). They seem decent enough to me.

I build bomb-proof vehicles every day and we use 10.9 grade bolts.

Me too!

It's not easy, TIG welding aluminium; especially since alloy wheels are made up of a random grade of aluminium!

Got any more pictures of it, more of the other sides of it?

Whoops, didn't see the ones you just put up!

That is porn.

It's horrible.

However, I do like the Green GT: http://www.design42day.com/2009/05/the-green-gt/

NO! Don't let her drive it!

+1.

They braze the joint, meaning that you need brazing kit to fit new metal, or remove the brazed joints. You can't weld to braze.

Is that where the first aid box goes? I can't remember!

Actually, the above post isn't right. Both speakers will run at the same power, producing the same level of sound. It doesn't matter if you wire both speakers the wrong way round - this is exactly the same as wiring them the "correct" way round. They are only labelled + and - so that you get both th...
