He says with THAT avatar.... ^^

Lol thats quality @ kam

Yeah I was looking online just now and 15% seems to be the agreed figure to use when guessing the flywheel figure. Most RR centres will probably give flywheel figures if they want their customers to feel better about themselves. I'm not knocking those that do... but like with stereos I prefer to use...

Well I just got back from Janspeed in Salisbury (nice company - recommended) who put on the 6 branch (older style) [and a new control arm and the H&R Anti-roll bars less relevantly] - so the car's running the following now, if this helps OP : E30 Zone Shop "Wild" chip Big-bore throttle body K&N 57i ...

Ooh ooh would 318 springs do? I havent read the springs bit properly but I have some Jamex 40mm lowering springs (pretty mint really considering they were fitted by ebayer i bought em off) which are in my garage gathering dust (bought in error :mad: ) -- Let me know And PS- when I get all my mods in...

I pray that one day this means something to me.

I do know one thing. This is DEFINITELY "freakin' awesome"

Nice concept ; good luck!

What do the heat wraps do? I can hazard a guess but a decent explanation would help alot

Haven't put my 6 branch on yet ysee (Old style) -- pm might be easier (rather than hijack) cos i may not see this one again!

PS - Fingers crossed the fixing goes well ;)

Ohhhh you didn't mean me - lol. My bad!

Done

We shall see how much of the masses of stuff I've bought has been fitted by then

... Name added to list

Thanks for the invite ;)

sh!t you bought Wyldie's old car, i've always thought i knew that numberplate James. the guy you bought it off lived local to me and i used to see it all the time :mad: He lived in Farnham? Nice car then! Lol - Err probably a no... I bought it off my friends Dad :) - he had it for a couple of years...

I had to drive to Edinburgh (from Bournemouth) for work, so rather than travel all that way in a Transit connect.com/slowasA$$holes I thought I'd see how my recent purchase handled it... Bit of a big ask but I figured its done 160k, whats another 1,000 on top! Route was Bournemouth to Edinburgh, hot...

Thanks guys for the info ; after a bit of looking it seems pretty tricky to track one down that I like - Might have to stick with standard for now - maybe just get the bumpers etc colour matched to car with a respray (mine paint job is crap which really doesn't help its looks) - but at least I know ...

That's true - The typical zoner is sadly (for us!) very different to their (E30s non M3) intended market in the time they were produced. If you buy an M5/M6 however, BMW focus was/is firmly on performance, and hence there is little or no better option for many of their parts, period. Hence why Sal'...

I didn't have much luck with the search facility trying to find out how to tell which "tech" version I have - or even what this means? My car is a 325i 2-door, G reg (89?) and it neeeeds a body kit... I've seen loads I like, but I think its the sport model and I don't know whether they're suitable f...

PS - When I say "engine temperatures" - I really mean "under-bonnet temperatures" ie the air around the filter...

BMW have to consider fuel economy, mass production costs, ease of build, the ability to use parts between their platforms (will it fit other models etc), etc etc. Induction kit providers have to think of these things, but only when it comes to how much to charge for their item, and whether thats com...

Just bought some Alpina alloys off him - I was late (my 325i overheated on way due to water pump giving up the ghost) and he was fine about it. He even pulled a water pump off an engine he had sat in his garage and gave it to me for free (which saved me ALOT of messing around trying to get one over ...

Just bought a sub off him - Really nice bloke, highly recommended.

Bought an oil cooler from her (him? her? I'm sorry I never asked?!) and it arrived very quickly, well packaged, good comms through whole thing, highly recommended.

Now I just have to fit the damn thing

and its sooooo coooold outside!

Thanks!

Thanks guys - mission accomplished! I was ready with my 8mm socket - and had gone down garage to get coolant (had put about 1l of water in prior so needed coolant to balance it up again - and indeed the screw had been completely rounded off and some light pressure from some grips got the screw undon...

Hi guys, I was sat at McDonalds just now talking on the phone and when I went to leave I noticed a rather large volume of steam coming out from around my engine... I got the car home and found that one of the pipes hd a split in it, and that water had been pi$$in onto - well, pretty much everything ...

I just flew to London, round London and back... Temperature after some private road speeds of 125+ (which it didn't seem to like) made it rise from its normal position just above 1/3rd, to nearer the half way point. After a 5 minute rest a couple of times for drink n stuff, it returned to its 1/3rd ...

LOL.

Shamoo rides again.

I'm in love.

Edited for crapness. Will redo once I aint so tired!

Basically ; thanks all :p ur forum is very impressive. I've done loads of reading and there's lots more to do.

Oh balls - apparently this isn't - I've only been here 5 minutes and already I'm being an idiot (you'll find I do this an alarming amount :eek: ) - Sorry! Edit - I don't even have to look at the M3 pics via google to remember what an M3 DOES look like, and that deffo aint one. Its nothing like the M...

Oh F**K.

Sorry peeps.

Now I look at it again, it totally isn't. As per my intro post - Sorry - and its my excitement at seeing the M bit and mistaking it for the M3. So, so wrong now I realise. Poosticks.

Ignore this - see below - but name of pic on photobucket changed to notM3Macau :p I think it's owned by one of the staff at Badger Brewery, I spied it round the back when I picked up some beer

I just bought some - pics will be up soon if you're interested in seeing some. They were sold as Hartge M3 Alpina so I'm hoping the answer to your q is yes!
