Posted: Fri Mar 21, 2003 3:55 pm Post subject: Wanted: Mags & Extractors |
|
|
I own a 1985 Manual 5sp TG... i know it's shameful.
Im trying to make SOMETHING of this fairly gutsy little front wheel drive gemmi but have hit a snag.
I Totally rebuilt the engine replacing Everything, spending a little over $2500 (new head, valves, high-compression pistons and upgraded the radiator) , also installed a sports exhaust and high-volume fuel & oil pump.
Without going _totally_ insane, i want 2 finish my little project by adding Mags & extractors.
I've been told Old BMW Mags fit but want to get something that looks decent...
I went to the exhaust guy down the road, and he said i cant buy extractors for FWD's but he can custom make one for me for about $700. i thought that was a bit steep so i was wondering if ANYONE had these two items?
Im willing to pay around $300-$400 for the extractors, and depending what the mags look like around $400.
If anyone wants to make a bit of cash, i'd be very grateful.
Cheers! |

I have a set of 5 SLE rims, they are off a 79 model!
They are in PERFECT conditon and would look really nice on a done up gemi with a good polish,
We were asking $150 in the trading post for them, but make an offer and feel free to come and have a look. The wheels are in Noble Park, Victoria!
BTW. They also have good tyres on them, Not retreads and have about 70/75%tred, so even for the tyres alone you geta good deal! Call 0402556421 or nicanswer@austarnet.com.au if you are interested! |
