Inners are around £100 a side. Pretty sure their still available from dealer. I just sent a N/S one back as the sent me 2 instead of 1 for either side. Outers are pattern part not from dealer. Unless u want to replace hole quarter section which are around £300 a side. I'm currently in the process of...

Sorry, should of made it clearer. I was talking about inner outer arches in my previous post.
Not the shock mount inner inners.

I bought the last NS inner arch last week and ordered a OS inner arch, but Cotsworld rung and said that the OS one was labelled wrong and was actually a NS. So technically there is still 1 more NS inner left in the uk (if someone has not bought it since). The OS is on a long back list from Germany, ...

i feel good vibes looking at your work ,the progress so far is top notch given your not a garage . back yard builds by owners that care about quality is where it's at :D . Thanks. Not any decent update as not much work has gone on as I've been away the last couple of weekends on a Stag Do and a wee...

I liked the Topgear vid. Makes you wonder about the worn ignition!

That's a MEGA re-build :D Always love the pics of shiny bits! Cheers, yeah I like the fresh pics too so will hopefully keep posting them up. Cut some rot out of the passenger foot well today. She don't look pretty when you see the floor pans, but I guess most e30's that ain't really been touched ar...

Great work there and nice to meet you today also :) Nice to meet you to Jim! Little update, managed to get the rear arms made up. I was waiting for the shoe pins and calliper mounting bolts from the dealer. Shoes and components in http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o630/popidol2012/IMG_6066.jpg Sp...

Had a quick look earlier. Good read! You done well. Not gone through it all yet tho.

Anyone else used a a good welder in south east who's familiar with e30's? Doesn't have to be mobile I could get it trailered.

Nice one Jim, is he local to me (Essex) and mobile?

Also, do you have any pics of his work you can post here?

Anyone used or could recommend a mobile welder? Jacking points, inner arches etc. South East area.

Thanks

The carpet cleaner stuff is called 1001. It's pretty good, it works well. Just keep going over it. You'll see the shite getting sucked through the nozzle. I think the disk plates are around £30 each off the top of my head. You just get the plates, I've bought all new bolts for the plates and caliper...

Yeah already got it cheers Mick! So little update, here it goes: Little bit of work on the brake components, clean up and paint. Ive ordered new pins and springs for the hand brake shoes, their a German order and should be here in the next day or 2. But these bits were worth saving/clean/paint. http...

Look here mate, http://www.cjautosheywood.co.uk/mini.shtml I got mine 2nd hand on ebay. I Think I paid £200, it was basically brand new, some rich toff had bought one but it didn't fit under his car as the clearance gap between the bottom of his motor wasn't big enough and he had to pee about drivin...

Nice one. Thanks

Also check where the pipes join the back box. The couplings crack and it's a new centre section or fabrication job

Defo check the subframe mounts as they defo crack as Speedtouch says. I had a e46 m3 vert but had no probs with it, but it was a 53 plate with low miles. Sold it last year with 50k on it.

When removing my fuel and brake line from the car the screws holding the brackets have sheered. Item 6 is the bush in this link http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=1112&mospid=47263&btnr=16_0173&hg=16&fg=15 How are they connected to the chassis? Is it just a hole drilled and the bush is po...

So after owning this E30 for about 12 years and driving it through my 20's the time has come to restore the old beaut! It came off the road about 3-4 years ago with a blown head gasket and because I had another car the poor old E30 got forgotten about and has since been in the garage, (which I actua...

Ok thanks Brian

Bump. Anyone?

I have just replaced my rear wheel bearings and have put the hubs back in. There seems to be quite a bit of play in them. This is without the drive shafts in. I'd say about 1mm play left to right. Is this normal? Has be experianced this before?

I'm sure they just pull off. Not 100% tho

What happened to Ady? moved to a different car scene?

The dealer mate. You should have looked on Demon Tweeks, they have Bilstein B4's on there very cheap. Ive ordered a set of rears which worked out £40 each with postage. I've emailed them regarding the front as they list 2 at different prices. Think the more expensive are for the bigger struts, but I...
