I'm a little behind with upates; although there isn't an awful lot to report! I think I have a couple more scans of my cars sneeking its way into magazines and perhaps a few minor changes to the car itself. The most obvious of which will be the new winter wheels! Many people say it can't be done wit...

yalden

Would you sell the sun visors seperately? If so, how much inc. delivery to UK?

yalden

To those of you who've seen the 'star wars kid' viral youtube video, I thought this might be of interest to you... a very similar composure, but set in a boxing gym...

Yep! I remember a friend who bought one on eBay years ago to hang off the back of his Corrola. I didn't like it then, I certainly don't like it now lol.

yalden

Gliptone for me too!

yalden

Why not try your hand at trading your MR2 for a Z3? You may need to add some cash on top to get a deal but it must be worth a shot! Pistonheads is your friend

yalden

Hi mate, would you consider selling the Hardtop and fitting kit seperately

If so, drop me a PM as I may be interested!

yalden

Nice wheels... Will you run them through winter?

yalden

Good luck with the sale, I'd still be tempted to get rid of mine but the issue I'm faced with is not knowing what car I could buy for the money which would be nicer/better than my Z3.

Any clues on what you're going for?

yalden

Well thanks for volunteering to be the guinea pig on this matter!

It's a shame he isn't taking any advice in improving the system...

yalden

I look forward to seeing how this works out, if it fits and operates as per OEM I'll be buying one for sure!

yalden

Looks great and demonstrates that M wheels DO fit a non-M if done right! If it's catching from time to time, just roll the lip on the rear arches, simples. I paid about £30 for both mine to be rolled 8-) What is the build quality on the Weitec's like? I'd like to buy a new set of coilovers for mine ...

yalden

The problem with the Weissman hardtop is that it's not too dissimilar from the OEM one. I'd only be willing to pay out for one if it came with the leather headlining as opposed to the velour.

yalden

I love Design E's, if I had a spare £400 I'd be very tempted! I bought a set brand new about 5 years ago, they were sealed in the original Hartge boxes, stamped June 1998. It was an incredibly lucky find, especially at just £600! http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a388/yalden/MEMBER%20JOURNAL/S430000...

My friend has a lovely white R-limited Mk1 MX-5. It's white with red leather and red mohair roof.

He has just fitted a Supercharger and bought himself some custom 3-pc BBS RM split rims with mega rare MS centres. I think he'll be turning his nose up at multiple Z's anytime soon...

yalden

I had my eye on these and was gutted when someone posted the link as I knew my chances of grabbing a bargain were long gone! :lol: At the same time I was not sure whether to buy them or not as I don't know if I could bring myself to cut into an ultra rare Aero bumper, so I'm partially glad you did a...

yalden

Car is looking great Shants, the red roof and front splitters set it off perfectly. P.S. I seriously love your plate! I only have some cruddy old photos of the car in my mates garage; I'd love to do a half decent shoot in a well lit car park though... http://s15.photobucket.com/albums/a388/yalden/Z3...

yalden

I'd like to fit a set of Z3m wheels to mine, I'd probably fit some 20mm spacers to the front to even up the front & rear poke.

Good first mods, next on the list...? Suspension...

yalden

Ahhh how much I would love to get some photos of my car with the Canary Wharf setting in the background! Unfortunately I'm about 4 hours drive away

yalden

I think he's probably refering the sport mesh from BMW, I think mine cost me circa £30 and is a simple DIY fit in place of the standard 'slats'.

yalden

Great looking car. Really amazing. Can you please give me your insight on the side skirts: I understand the depth aspect, but are they any lower? I want them withal any front or rear lip... Do you think it will work? I've seen your photos from before the rear and front, but they were not side shits...

yalden

Looks great, you went quiet for a while and now you're back with new wheels and splitter... good work! I soooo badly need a hardtop

yalden

Looking good Tim, how much was it?

yalden

Not too far from what my interior would look like against Imola!

yalden

Amz,

I hadn't noticed that it was for 4-cyl models, in which case it's not going to fit... the same seller did sell me mine though, so might have a 6-cyl version in stock??

Regards,

Chris

yalden

Does the original loom make it as far as the speakers? If so then I guess you're right - there must be a break in the circuit. If that's the case I'd assume it would be somewhere suitable to place an amplifier? Perhaps behind the glove box or passenger footwell?

yalden

Thanks for the compliments, it was forum member 'Lakes Lee' that inspired me, with his black Aero kitted Z3. I think I'm right in saying that I inspired Naeem... and now it seems you've also been inspired! Unfortunately the whole kit is now NLA from the dealership, which is a real shame as it's a gr...

yalden

Hmm... from looking around on forums I've seen a fair few people in the US have changed their 4-cyl narrow arches for 6-cyl variants, all evidence seems to suggest it's a simple process...!

yalden

From looking at it, it all looks very straight forward - but I can't say for sure! When fitting my Aero skirts I know that there are a row of bolts beneath the plastic trim which sits inside the drivers door shut. With these bolts removed and the botls removed from behind the inner arch liner I foun...

yalden

Ignore all of the above... is your car pre-facelift or facelift?

In either case try your hardest to find a OEM Aero spoiler

yalden

When I purchased my car I had the same issue, I removed the washer bottle and cleaned out the gauge filter that sits in its base. I also used a power washer to remove the gunk that had built up within the inner edges of the bottle!

It was a 15min job

yalden

Send the guy a message and check it definitely sold, the auction might've just lapsed!

yalden

Hiya buddy, Stumbled upon this and immediately thought of you... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMW-Z3-17-ALLOY-AND-TYRE-/150563969295?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item230e4fd90f I'd say, Buy It Now! At £78 delivered I think it's the best you're going to get! Regards, Chris

yalden

I assume you don't know the make/brand?

yalden

I'm full of envy!! That looks fantastic!

yalden

I wouldn't bother, butttt I think it can look 'ok' on darker coloured cars!

yalden

I'd chose the Z4

I love the shape of the Z3, it's got a certain retro cool appeal which right now I don't want to let go of. Even if my car remains a keeper, there remains a part of me that see's it as a stepping stone towards a Z4 Alpina 3.4S (I should be so lucky!).

yalden

I love it, looks great!

Alpine white suits the lines of the coupe perfectly!

Do you plan to fit a square front plate, or buy a UK-spec plate mount? If you have no use for the current square front plate mount let me know!

yalden

Sorry, what do you mean by 'blanking plates'?

yalden

I wouldn't recommend removing the rear spring pad as it has a rubber cone which centralises the spring. Without the pad you may find the spring rattles around and has more potential to fall out... :| You can purchase different thickness pads, check what width your pads are and look on www.real-oem.c...

yalden

What does it look like? Any photo?

If it has upswept tips it may be the same as what I have fitted to my Z3.

My ACS tips were from an E36 M3.

yalden

I received my car jack yesterday... spot on! Thanks!

yalden

I imagine your correct, i.e. the difference is made up by the chrome ring.

The trouble with a CCFL retrofit into the OEM headlights is that the rings are perfectly circular, whereas the headlight isn't (it's a circle with the top and bottom cut off!).

yalden

I have these part numbers, but note that I couldn't retrieve the exact numbers for the Z3, instead these are from an equivalent E36 - which is close enough for me! However, this may present something slightly different to your Z3M (i.e. 95 ron fuel)! 51142121181 - Run-in Inspection Sticker 712121222...

yalden

Go back to school.

yalden

Thanks for the advice

yalden

Nice upgrades, did you replace the front speakers as well? Also, are your rear speakers running straight off the headunit or are they amped?

As stated by Jon, often the best way is to get users to openly bid up until there is only one man left standing (I won a Strong Strut brace this way!), however I doubt I'll come up trumps on these! Without wanting to tread on toes, I'll start the ball rolling with:- £250 plus OEM hoops and Wind Defl...

yalden

It looks like I've been beaten to it, but if all other offers fall through I'm definitely interested in an exchange, my oem hoops & deflector, plus cash, for the AC Hoops!
