£20 per side, both for £30. The black vertical pillars are unrusty. Collection only, no postage under any circumstances.

Pantri Trading are one to avoid - absolute pisstakers. Other sellers too - I wanted a heater control facia panel for an E36 Compact. Ebay clowns £75 plus post, BMW £42.

No need to buy new catches unless you want shiny new stuff. The old ones can be easily fixed - grind off the head of the rivet and the steel closing plate comes off and the inner plastic cover. Remove the spring inside (not under much tension), thoroughly clean it all up and reassemble with...

Febi MAF's seem to be Bosch or Siemens with the part numbers and logos ground off. Talking of gearbox issues: I had a 1997 single Vanos E39 528i auto that would not change up into 4th or 5th unless you did it manually on the gearlever - occasionally on ultra light throttle it would go into 4th...

Thing is, the LSD in the 2.2, 2.8 and 3.0 is the type 188 and all non LSD units are the smaller Type 168. That means the driveshafts and propshaft are the wrong length. You're better off buying a good used LSD for 800 quid or whatever.

As above, never been fitted or used. £60 plus postage or collect from Sheffield.

Stillsons are the perfect tool. Fit new lock washers if fitted and threadlock the new track rod. I always replace the entire track rod, mainly because the track rod end is invariably rusted solid onto the track rod.

Those 300ZX's were/are excellent. The Mitsubishi 3000GT was a proper weapon as well. A nice example of either is a rare thing now.

I'd possibly be interested in this. I'm in Sheffield....is there a train station in Ripley? Andy

It probably wouldn't fail but they need replacing.
