Yes it will fit, I had the exact same one fitted to my 2.8. I will try and dig out s picture for you but all you need to do is make a cut out for the earth stud and it fits perfectly.

aceman

It's a pleasure.

aceman

Received I will get them out to you today.

aceman

Yes I always have these in stock. If you click the "Paypal order" link in the first post of this thread you will be able to order a set and I will get them out to you ASAP.

Link to RealOEM with parts list; http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=CK92&mospid=48084&btnr=66_0052&hg=66&fg=20 Also here is an actuator going cheap on fleabay. RealOEM says the same actuator was fitted to the car this fella says it came off (2000 318Ci Coupe) but as he say...

aceman

Seriously, shouldn't be too difficult to do though and you could probably pick up the bits from a breakers out of an old E36 M3.

You'll need the steering column stork and actuator for certain but not sure on the the wiring, there's probably a box under the dash as well.

aceman

NO I already have it fiited. :smug:

aceman

Yep I had similar frustrations but patience is certainly a key factor in getting it right.

Glad to hear you thought my writeup was good (if it was mine that is).

aceman

Just picked up two 4 litre bottles of Castrol Edge FST 5w40 for £24 each from Costco.

Time to get my hands dirty.

aceman

Great stuff another happy customer.

aceman

I know only jesting.

Some zeds don't seem to be afflicted by this problem for some resson even regularly used ones but for sure it is one of the most common problems they suffer from.

aceman

You can tell Mark if you actualy drive your zed.

aceman

Good to hear you fitted the bushes OK and you didn't find it too difficult a job to do. I hope this gives other people the urge to have a go themselves (boysie

)

aceman

Count me in Bill, Ferrybridge as usual ?

aceman

Glad you enjoyed Silkwood Farm what pudding did you have? With regard to the non starting at the docks I would check the battery connections as it is not too uncommon for one of the terminals to have a bad connection. I bet slamming yhe boot lid down was just enough to dislodge one of the terminals....

aceman

Sounds ominous, good or bad ?

aceman

Gentle bump to say these are still available, if anyone wants a set just click on the PayPal Payment link in the 1st post.

aceman

If you want a convenient stop off near Leeds you could come off at jn40 M1 head for Wakefield and there is a Days Inn or Holiday Inn just off the roundabout. There is also a great pub just around the corner called Silkwood Farm which do great meals with puddings to die for. Maybe easier rather than ...

aceman

This may be worth a look. Anyone on here? http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/bmw/z3m-roadster/bmw-z-series-m-roadster-1999/1089229 Mike, I think this car belongs to the member Johnwayne, the car belonged to Ian Kelly prior to that. It looks a great car and has been really well looked ...

Try putting your handbrake on a click or two, I had a similar thing where the springs on the drum brakes had slackened off and started to rattle putting the handbrake on slightly puts tension on the offending spring and temporarily stops the tinkle. Fitting a new spring kit and general service of th...

aceman

Not sure if he actually makes them or buys the blanks in and welds your choice of tips and pipes on, good fabricator though from some of the work I have seen.

aceman

Hi Mark,

You could always give Tony Banks a call on 01132 089830 he is a longlife exhaust dealer and can probably get what you want plus he is only in Leeds.

aceman

Hi Mark, looking good in fact exceptionally good. :D Good to see you have resolved the induction move and managed to sqeeze the catch tanks in although I notice you have not used that nice shiney elbow pipe you have. The radiator cowl looks good too I hope that works as we discussed and brings your ...

aceman

I am going to give you a sanity check next time I see you Corky, when you next down Asda?

aceman

Haha thanks for the crash course in TIG and MIG welding Mark I really enjoyed that. Picture of my first attempt to fuse two pieces of metal together is below. I must say TIG welding is a very smooth and satisfying process and I am sure with a little more practice I could quite take to this welding l...

aceman

Thanks for letting me know.

Have a good Christmas.

As above,... Lovin' your style though

Haha I was thinking the same.

Can't wait to see this it is going to sound awesome.

aceman

Ayup Bill welcome home looks like you had a great time.

aceman

Ooh nice shiny bits :D That car sounds awesome but then I am a sucker for a raw V8. For me as it is a weekend car a sound like that I could put up with and would put a permanent grin on my face that would have to be surgically removed but it all depends how you feel Mark. I can understand your appre...

aceman

I bought one from these guys this time last year, I have a writeup somewhere on here about it. Good quality and definatly worth it.

aceman

Yes I have got one Wayne if you want it, infact yo can have the complete caliper and carrier.

aceman

I might have one Wayne, I have got an extra rear caliper but not sure what side it is, will have a look tomorrow for you.

Mass Air Flow, measures the amount of air entering the engine. It will run a little rough with it disconnected but if it stops it cutting out it could be the culprit. Thing to do would be to get a diagnostic done send see if there there are any other errors pending as maf problems don't always throw...

aceman

I bet it is your MAF try disconnecting it and see if it runs. The ecu drops into a safe mode and a EML light will come on the dash but it should run.

Portymaster if you are still having problems PM me and I can print your ticket out and bring it along to Ferrybridge, I have just done mine and the website was fine.

Wabbitkilla I am sure there will be pleny of us to convert you to the Z side

Hi Guys, I know this is a little late notification but I have been asked by the TVR Club if we would like to attend this event this year as apparently the last one was a roaring success and turned out to be an excellent day or two out. Basically you can get the chance on the Saturday to run your car...

aceman

Yes sorry about that I will have to fix the link. - FIXED !

I have PM'd you.

aceman

New batch of bushes in and ready for delivery, anyone interested in purchasing a set I have now included Paypal payment link in the first post to make it easier for you all.

aceman

How about a Jaguar Diesel S !

Great looks, good emmissions, very quick and a choice of trim spec which you should be able to tailor to your budget quite easily.

If the XF isn't quite big enough then the XJ is a good size and you should be able to pick a sub 10k ex demo for around £40k I would think.

aceman

John you need to buy another Z3 so you can then have both ACS and Hamann varients then you wouldn't have the dilema of what to fit. As daft as it sounds I think if you have the money it would certainly fulfil your desire to have both types but then you would have the problem of having to choose whic...

aceman

Yes I think you are quiite right there thinking back to when I took the policy out but I did ask at the time and they said they didn't want any info on NCB as it wasn't aplicable which shocked me at the time.

aceman

The best thing with RH Classic Insurance is that they do not take into account any NCB hence you do not have to transfer or or give any evidence of previous NCB.

aceman

Nice pictures John especially the one of mine
