Hi all!
North side of Brisbane, Australia. Had my first BMW for a couple of months now - '99 Z3.
Has had a body kit fitted based on the Tribute Automotive kit from the UK - I believe the first road-registered in Australia.
Currently in the shop getting a new DME fitted and programmed...started having issues that pointed to a throttle body assembly, however a replacement showed no change and now pointing at the DME as the culprit.
In the middle of acquiring an M42TUB28 to fit... so already started looking at threads on people who may have been considering doing this to gain some hints...
Cheers!
Michael.

So you have a 'Kobra'.
I also have a re-bodied Z3 (not a Tribute body) which I built myself.
