"pink car" aleast he had the balls to do it!!!! The pink car was owned by a girl I beliave. Nah, big bloke drove it in and was po...

Actually its very easy to improve that set up on the road.

Just a note for a road car, it can be worth fitting rubber boots over the rose joint purely to stop the inevitable build up of crap around the joint. The muck can cause corrosion which in-turn reduces life and effectiveness of the rose joint. I have gone through a few sets on my car, mainly they jus...

No Mike, it doesn't make you sound like you have no moral's, it makes you sound realistic.

I too am happy to be proved wrong, if I am I am more than happy to hold my hands up, i always am. I know I don't know everything.

Like I said though, there are people who have done this.

LoL I take your point, I'm no auto spark, the response came from me because the fact is there is loads of info on t'interweb (which was laughed at) and looking for info with the comment about the plugs will get you to it. Fact is there folks all over who have bypassed the EWS without the need to pay...

cecotto, i understand all that, but surely by deciding not to bid at all, the O/O gave up all rights to the car. So why all the historonics now. It,s irelevant who owns it now, or what they paid for it. Holding back the cars history, or even theatening to bury it is just petty and spiteful. Yes, so...

Connect the wires in pins 1 and 3 on the ews module, job done. EWS can be sorted by cutting a few wires, its pretty simple really. A search on google will yield a fair few results. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a155/Danharborow/smilies/rofl.gif Of course, your clearly the font of all knowledge.....

And it goes to show that their buy back figure was very accurate.

EWS can be sorted by cutting a few wires, its pretty simple really. A search on google will yield a fair few results.

I don't understand why the chap is crying, he took the payout from the insurance, didn't agree their price for buying it back and thought he would buy it back through an auction at a cheaper price leaving more money in his pocket. That is a risk, if he really wanted the car he should have bought it ...

Now got an E34

LoL

Unless you went for the M5 that doesn't make sense to me.

Well, each to their own.

LoL ;)

if i am wrong i except it but i dont think there rare as if there is 50 in existance i have found 2 of them for sale very easy! You are wrong, granted there may be more than 50, not sure tbh, but there is only 50 GT's see how many of those you can find. I know of two for sale at the moment, does th...

Well, there certainly isn't many saloons with the is engine, they were in the coupes. The saloon was normally fitted with a lower bhp engine. The 318is (1.9) saloon was a run out edition that had vented disc brakes etc, I think they probably did have 150bhp. I think you have ppossibly been a bit qui...

Will it actually be any good though..

Take the engine out of the e34 drop that in your cab and then source a bigger engine for the e34

Looking at the sig, the car is tasty and would deserve a v8 methinks

That's a pretty fair write up. I went from 328 to M3, I thought they were completely different, in fact it was only when I hadn't owned one that I thought they were similar. The M3's engine is completely different, power delivery is in a completely different style, the m52 is a lazy torquey engine, ...

Very nice.

Its not going anywhere, its my toy, gets brought out every now and again, but otherwise stays put.

Ahh Number 1, yeah I remember that car and the car he bought, both excellent examples of the e36.

I thought you meant black and yellow rims, which Chris's car didn't ever have, hence the confusion

Hmm, I am on e36coupe, have been for years, i don't know of that car, in fact the only person i know of who was/is building a wide body ACS type car is John, he hasn't ever owned a GT. You sure its not my car that you mean? I have owned it for a fair while. Its certainly the only GT with this rim co...

I like the car, but I have to say that I am always weary of sellers who go to such an extent to photograph the cars. Each car looks like it in a cover shoot.

Yeah I had the wheels done, I only know of one other like that and its Swiss I believe, although it does get to the ring quite often.

Of course.

Driven the E39 M5 but not an E36 M3. I can't remember the clutch on that - only the biggest smile....and the sound of the V8 of course.... One of life's little pleasures. I have a 3.6 M5 clutch in my e36, light as a feather, still has the on off feel, but I quite like that. As said the braided line...

The bearing nut is 46mm and needs to be done up to 300nm of torque.

^^ Why on earth would you bother?

The 3.6 isn't any better than the 3.0 or the 3.2 really, well, its not worth the effort of messing about with the loom etc.

How has it been, done anything like this again?

Could be a few things, the alternator could of had a paddy, the earth straps may be on their way out, or it could of just been struggling to rev because of some crap and nearly stalling.

For me its always been Black with cream leather and black plastics.

The one thing with a lot of the colour combination's is the fact that BMW fitted gray plastics, ruins the car imho.

AHH good work.

You haven't just changed the plugs or anything have you? ICV is always worth a check too.

Common for the boot between the maf and the inlet to crack, worth a check.

I would use a sealant, only on the curved parts of the cover though. The studs have a collar on them, in fairness they really shouldn't tighten down much, they hit the collar when tightening by hand and you just nip them up after that. I would be getting a new gasket and hoping for the best. Edit: I...
