DID YOU RE SPRAY YOUR Z1?

WHAT SHADE OF BLUE IS THAT?

Hello BigBen,

It is PurBlu like its hardtop.

Personally I voted for you to spray your car in Monaco Blue

That's a ridiculous price without tyres!!! I just checked back and see that I paid Felix £250 for my second set of alloys (I use them for winter tyres), admittedly back in 2006. Ok, they need some re-furbing but that only cost a further £150. They are only expensive if you can find another set out ...

On German ebay a set of good original wheels change owner for 600-800 euro's. New wheels cost 500 euro's a piece including VAT and center caps. :shock: Thank you Pierre, good idea. That is why I removed the tyres as I had a lot of offers from the United States and Germany for them. I also sent two ...

Not happy about that!

Just don't scratch them!

LOL, he's having a laugh! they where starting bid of £400 the other day, so nobody bids and the price goes up lol. Deport me then if you don't like the price :bawl: How much is a set new with the centres and VAT. Probably twice the price, and the last set I sold went to an E30 fanatic for about tha...

The steel arms also allow the fitment of modern floating and vented disks owing to the caliper position and are therefore better for upgrading the rear brakes for cars with circa 400bhp :D Well Senna when do we get a full report of your latest engine-conversion? :twisted: Bit shy Harry :oops: May b...

senna

So would that make the older Z1's wider as standard Hi Apollo, hope you are well. Sorry been away for a bit with the 1 HP stuff :( The track is the same on the old and new suspension. The difference is the drive shaft length, and the hubs and the arms. The older stuff basically has shorter "wi...

Ben the car looks Awesome, but do you know what would really set it off - a set of Alpina RLE stripes down the side.

ONLY HAVING A LAUGH

senna

Original are the best! :D (not wishing to sound hypocritical) but I up graded for the bigger callipers which would not entertain 16” wheels (and I tried!!) :head: The original 16” “spiderwebs” look just right if the car is a little bit lower http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j224/Langendorff/DSCF083...

Thank you Garo
I will P.M you.

Hi again. News from China and I need a template please. I would rather borrow an old/ cracked light and send there (just in case it is dropped etc) and it will go insured. If any body could lend me a set of rear lights preferably not perfect, so that a cast of the orange part can be made then please...

Watch it a thousand times. http://www.findinternettv.com/Video,item,96568125.aspx Hamilton definitely gained an advantage by cutting the bus stop, and then after overtaking Raikkonen was then weaving about on the straight down into le combe, Its the kind of driving I'd expect to see in an online ga...

Nice, why did you not increase the capacity though?
I have M20 engines coming out of my ears. You could have had my 2.7 engine

senna

Look a V10 M5 can go into an E30!!!???

senna

This is the market at the moment. Down. all prices have fallen pound at its lowest ever.

Anyway thought of M5 engine conversion is keeping me happy

senna

No look at Z3 prices and house prices!

May be use this

It is complete on all fronts. Next is an M5 V8 conversion on a roughish Z1 (small problem is the...

I will try and post a how to do list soon (VERY BUSY sorry and between cases at the moment) but essentially it is plug in and play! On hydraulic mountings the engine is very smooth as the original are solid! http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j224/Langendorff/DSCF0667.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/a...

If there are any more C.D changers to fit a Business RDS radio thent please let me know.
I would like a replacement for my 1999 E36 318is
Many Thanks

senna

Thank you.
I suppose if the price is in that ballpark then I will go ahead.
However still waiting for feasibility

senna

Photos are going to China.

I may need some help with a spare set soon.

There is one thing I need to know please. What was the approximate price for the last set of clear lights.

Thanks

senna

I am in the process of arranging the prodiction of Z1 rear clear lights. There is one snag. I need a set of spare standard rear lights for the 3.D moulds to be produced. If there is a spare set (or one side ) then could i borrow it/them. I could use mine but I would have to take my car off the road...

Senna This topic again, lets hope this time the subject can be put to bed....Really want a set and i ve got a spare rear light cluster but it has been smashed!!

Z1 as a track car.... if one were to find a poor Z1 that may never be fit for the road or look good on the road (eg post damage repair) then to create a track car is a good option. Or would it be better to see it on ebay as parts??? I would never consider using a good one, (Hence the title of the po...

Does anyone know of a Z1 chassis (or rough car) and an E39 M5 (crashed) for sale.

The very early cars (essentially pre-production) did not have that cover, it is not a matter of your cars missing a trim, but rather that they were not produced with it.

Also the very late cars had different rear suspension components (steel cf aluminium, and different calipers)

senna

Front 3 cylinders lean.
Could possibly be the Lambda. I had a similar issue on my M engine

senna

Is this any help

senna

BEAUTIFUL! BEAUTIFUL! BEAUTIFUL! JOB
Love what you have done, Slightly easier with the metal floorpan of a Z3.
I am planning an M5 (E39) conversion in a Z1, the major problem will be the floorpan for me.

senna

Try drilling it out, the hex bolt will round off.

Or try an impact driver

senna

I am asking in Malasia to see if we can make 50 sets of the Orange part only.

Also I gather India has very lax chemical laws so going to enquire there too.

Don't hold your breath as I am a bit busy at present.

Hi I made the first exhaust and drove the car to an exhaust man in Surrey.
Will look up the details. Busy this week.

senna

No I am looking for another Z1 for the conversion this time.

Need an M5 to cut up too

senna

Thanks for the light offer, but I will have my hands full with planning this new conversion.

I am sure we will make some lights in the end. Reminds me of casting plastics in GCSE D and T.

senna

Just bought the magazine, I must say I am pleased

Will try and get industry to make a set of 10 rear lights, they can't be that hard to make, but power corrupts, hence my motive!

Any way will keep the posting the progress of a V8 Z1...........has anyone got an M5 for sale?

Thank you ! :oops: I would not bother with the alpina alloys. The genuine 17" RLE type are 4 stud, and have a square edge, the 5 stud have a curved edge (see below), but will need 4 to 5 stud adaptors I have semi retired from the Z1 scene, as girlfriendand and work prevent me from doing it any ...

Thank you SfH3L! It was an amazing day, with overtaking moves etc. Quite hard to keep a constant distance for the overtaking pictures of the Evo vs the M20 engined car, as the Evo is too responsive.
