                Great looking car and welcome to the forums! I have a few mates from Auckland and I'm moving there next April. What is the e30 scene like down there and how much did you pay for yours when you first got it?

                  Thanks for the comments guys, i had to buy a whole car to get the tech2 kit fitting it on wasnt to much difficulty aslong as you have all the clips..my old wheels are currently on my PFL Tech1 M325i which is going under a 'resto' transformation at the moment.

                  The E30 scene in NZ isnt that big compared to the japanese imports we get over here skylines, sylvias,hondas etc.. register on bimmersport.co.nz when you get over here for some friendly advice, i got lucky with my car i bought it 3 years ago for $1200nzd and it was very tidy with no rust. I would say u can get a tidy one for about $2000nzd but u can get a runner for as low as $600 that needs some work
