E30 Zone

I am thinking of buying an E28 520 I really like the look of them.

Does anyone know what engine this is?

Is it the same as in the E30?

Has anyone got one?

Should I be thinking of another one to buy?

Maybe the K&N panel filter is not helping if it it taking in warm air.

Also the car had an ecotech valve installed and the filter may need replacing.

The car had a new radiator just before I sold it 2-3 years ago.

eldarvanyar! I can confirm that your old 320 is still going strong. I've owned it for 2 years and in that time covered about 8K (almost trouble free) miles! However, it's just about to go up on axle stands as the prop centre bearing needs attention. Hi, if you EVER decide to let go of her then plea...

DavieP, couldn't agree more :wink: My former 320iSE could really shift if needed yet was a smooth drive and pretty economical. I do belive you are less likely to find a ragged one. I have been there when it comes to fast cars and speed and have had my fare share of turbos. I have driven over 400,000...

By low mileage I mean under 100k

I think its worth spending a bit more if it means there is less to do body wise and mechanically. It should be cheaper in the long run

That'll teach me for getting rid of my one.

I will just have to keep my eyes pealed

How much do you think I should be paying for a mint 320ise coupe, preferably in sterling silver around G reg onwards with the factory body kit etc.
I am still pining after my last one G705 GTY

If any one knows of any coming up mint and low mileage, teher must be some out there

Wow, that's amazingly quick was that from the DVLA website?

It's good to know that she is stil running.

Has any one still got G705 TGY, I wondered what's happen to her, she is a 320iSE in Sterling Silver or was. I know when I sold her to Jack he had her lowered and 15" wheels put on. Any pics would be good.
It's funny how these e30s have a special place in your heart.

ive got a fake bosch system and it works well enough. a few niggles but its far better than the standard candles.

I am shocked that people would sell fake Bosch

Sounds like a touring is the way to go then. Just got to work out how I get this one past the wife. I think cottys looks the bees knees, wouldn't mind a malachite green auto.....

I have been thinking about it gassman. Can you email me some more pics? I will PM you my email address

Thanks Fuzzy, how does the touring drive compaired to the saloon? Is it more grown up?

I sold my E30 earlier this year due to the arrival of another baby, and I am thinking that I made a bit of a silly mistake. I am still pining after my old sterling silver 320iSE that I sold to Jack and nearly bought back of him for the third time but left it to late. :x (Its on my banner) Hope the n...

This looks better although it costs more but you shouldn't go far wrong with Bosch I wouldn't have thought. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Xenon-HID-Conversion-Kit-H1-H7-H4-Bi-Xenon-4-3K-6K-8K_W0QQitemZ140167329141QQihZ004QQcategoryZ72235QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem There seems to be a lot of kits o...

Hi M8, I like what you have done. I am thinking of getting a tourer.
Its looking good, how much did it cost for the tints to be done and is it legal at the front?

Great pics, love the Estoril Blue. How much did it cost to respray and was it blue already? Any more pics would be welcome.

Here's mine at the moment, long way to go though Chrome dials and light switch + Mtech II Wheel http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m31/eldarvanyar/DSC06432.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m31/eldarvanyar/DSC06431.jpg Handbrake gaitor form Mr Gator on ebay I have the gear one to go on when I f...

That's why I asked for some pics not really sure waht old skool meand when it comes to E30s

sounds good though

I thought it meant you kept them origional and didn't mod them

What's Old Skool about then?

Hi zoners,

lets have some old skool pics both inside and outside

Cheers

Dave,

Looking good dude! your engine bay puts mine to shame- I wouldnt even feed my enemy dinner off it 8O I dunno about the Handbrake cover, but it certainly seems that you've improved the car and made it more suited to yourself. good work :cool: To be honest I am not sure about the hanbrake cover yet, ...

the steam clean cost me Ãƒ”šÃ‚£25 including under body as well as the engine. You can see the detaoils on the care and detailing forum.

The M-tec wheel shouldn't block any view of the clocks. I've had both the small & larger sizes with no problems. How tall are you, I am 6ft so its when I look down. If the wheel angle was adjustable it ould be fine. I'm 6'2", maybe it's just down to seat position. I will try moving the seat then :m...

Ecoteks worth 30bhp Ant, Thought you would have known that :roll: Looks really good mate, really must get my rockercover and inlet manifold cleaned and painted soon. Thanks Dave, when I had the Ecotek valve put on I was told it would be at least 50bhp, the garage even said don't even think of turbo...

Well I have got my 320iSE Back from by MWM Techie mate and I have had the car serviced, new cambelt and pulleys, new radiator (ouch), rocker cover gasket and new heatshields which meant having to deal with the previous 3 broken studs in the exhaust manifold. Drilled out all three, put in two new one...

Do you have contact details for them?

I have a 320iSE. I bought in 2000 sold it to a friend in 2001 and got it back a couple of months ago. I find its fast enough to be honest,although I am 39 now, its very smooth and reliable, proper BMW :D That's why I bought it back. I can go out and buy a much newer car but I like the character of t...

"No" is the answer! lol.

Thats the beauty of the zone everyone can chip in, question is are they right?????????

Hi Bally its for the front bumper, the whole lot. I knew it wouldn't be cheap. Did you try GSF or Euro Car Parts?
