good morning to every one! I'm new around the place, my names Ryan, I'm 19 and live in melbourne. I've had my car for about a year now and untill recently have only had enough money for petrol, rego and insurance. so it's preety stock for the moment but i'm hoping to change that soon.

anyway here's my car.

and these are the wheels i have in my garage for it, i just don't have enough money to buy rubber for them, although i am taking donations

Cheers Ryan.

Very nice stocker. I've thought about reverting to everything OEM. The wheels I have on my M42 are from Australia (Speedy). Don't know anything about their reputation there but they have been good for the 18 months I've had them. Usually local stuff is out and foreign is "in". Guys here put on Euro bumper trim to eliminate the parklights and guys in Europe put US on to get them. Now, about those neat marker lights on the fenders...

clean man, clean.

There are a few Melbs guys on here, i used to live over there for a while, now im back in ADL.

Clay, Speedy are OK. i was actually considering those wheels years ago when i got the Simmons.

"yeah it sucks being poor." Consider it a motivator, LOL!

Car really does look nice. Great choice on the rims.

welcome ryan!

I think theres 3 melbourne guys here now and a small handful of other aussies around. Now swap that e36 steering rack in already!

Plus on E36 racks from me too! It makes the car feel a lot newer.
Just read about the drought down there. There's a joke in west Texas about two ranchers discussing the prospect of rain. One points to his four year old son and says, "I sure hope so, the kid here ain't ever seen it".
