Hi guys, new member here :P

Currently in the market for an S2 (96 or above) N/A R33 GTS4. The car must be auto so that other family members can drive it as well. Have the cash ready.

Post what you have guys :teehee:

PS: Strongly prefer SA/Adelaide cars as this is where I'm located, cheers.

Tom.

^^ your kidding right

there is a R33 GTS4 1997 albeit manual in the For Sale Section not really hard to teach someone how to drive manual or do an auto conversion im sure someone with an auto box would be more than happy to swap

come to think of it dont reckon you will get auto and 4WD in the same car

<-- boot lock without the badge looks shite. still after 33 boot lock with swivel badge. S1 or S2 are fine

and also the plastic inner front guard liner that surrounds the standard SMIC to suit 33 S1 type M front bar

i dont know if it will fit or not but i have the one off of my s2 33 sittin here if you want to try it

Hi Steve, thanks for your thoughts. I wouldn't mind a manual for a weekender, however, I will be driving the car in the city everyday so an auto would make my life much easier.

LOL

u gotta be joking, a manual is so easy to drive if you know wat ur doin, and u got more control over it in stop start traffic

and as madaz said, if u find a auto gts4 in adelaide, well damn u must be really good

its like finding a R33 GTR autech sitting in a elizabeth with the keys in the ignition lol, just aint gonna happen anytime soon

so just get a manual

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
