E30 Zone

Hi everyone. I've just put in a replacement long block into my 325. The replacement was an early high compression lump, and the original was a later low compression lump. I had to transfere the crank position sensor pulley, the cam covers, the injector wiring, the injectors and the oil level sensor,...

I wouldn't mind having Vanos on there, but if its going to cause difficulties with wiring etc it might be easier to remove it, if possible lol.

Hi, this maybe a little off topic considering its in a e34, but I thought the genius on this website might e able to lend a hand, and the info might be useful to other people doing e30 conversions. My brother has an e34 525 non vanos and the head gasket has gone. I'm considering putting in a 2.8 m52...

Awesome, I wouldn't be 2 worried about your input shaft rattle though, all my e30's did it to some degree and by contrast yours is quite quiet. But if your transmission is showing other signs of wear then maybe it is time to recondition it. In theory it would be an investment on a dogleg gearbox as ...

I was looking at the weather forecast for 2nite. Although its about as sunny as the inside of my closet, rain like tridents scorn and wind that was tearing the carwash apart on the polegate roundabout last night, the forecast isn't too bad. It appears to be clearing up later on. http://www.metoffice...

Hello everybody. I shall be attending this one in my mk3 supra...... caugh caugh....erm... 8 series....... ;-) lol and my friend Jon with his 540 e34 on straight bores will be coming (I made the exhaust system myself "claim to fame"). And yes, it is very very loud. The kind of loud that when it driv...

Petrol is still cheaper than water.... Litre of water in London can cost around Ã‚£2

I haven't seen many petrol stations selling at Ã‚£2 a litre

but it rattles

lol. cool

This is the point where I claim that I'm not some boy racer bum and likes to be able to hear the subtle whispers of a nicely running M20. But hey its a 20yr old rocket ship and it cost me Ã‚£500, but seems to leave everything else standing for some reason. Ah well. I suppose it'll have to wait until...

Cheers mate, I'm sure I heard someone say that about my 530i when I had it and it went from 200k up to 270k like it. Its just damn annoying when I stop having this rattle going on. IS there anything I can do about it, short of taking off the gearbox and having it reconned?

When the car is started on Idle, in Neutrol, with the clutch released there is a rattle from around the gearbox area. It just sits there making this god awful hollow rattle. When you depress the clutch the rattle dissappeares immediately. Is this a rattle from the Input shaft? I had the same sort of...

Well from what u described that sounds like a way of dumping a massive undefined amount of fuel directly into the inlet manifold via some sort of switch. It'll run massively rich. Maybe some dodgy backfire or flame kit. Doesn't sound like anything I've seen. Fuel is injected via the injectors. How e...

Did the pre-facelift 2.7 not have a throttle position sensor

doubt it was on carbs or a full MAF setup is it?

Well if its going upo to the throttle body it'll either be the throttle position sensor or the Idle control Valve. Can't think of much else going up to there.

Anyone else got any other ideas?

I disconnected mine on my 325 4dr with the intent of getting coldest possible intake using a ram air kit and some mods. Never had any problems with it. Just joined the two pipes together with some gas piping and two jubalee clips.

Thats cool. Looks like my mate in the 325 tech 2 sport is coming as well. So thats me, steve in a 318 and dugie in his 325 sport. 01. tangobeemer, mr vinyl 02. spook, to many ezone meets, not enough football 03.

I am well confused, but I'm hoping a MOD will put it right in the morning

I'll take 2 vowels and 6 constinents please:- FUNNY GUY!

Does anyone Know how to change them?

yeh if u could spell it lmao. What is it exactly mate? And y have I been branded with it?

do what ya like mate, origionally I beleive they come with blaupunkt shite stereos in the e30's. THere isn't exactly a written law on it, but I've always gone with Alpine, they've never done me wrong. And its nearly Alpina lmao.

hell no, your talking 325 turbo territory

What the hell is it lol??? Could of at least put something funny that people would understand....

WTF is with the bit after my username???

6 hours of cleaning and polishing, no hiding that dent in the rear quarterpanel tho, grannies in the carpark did that with a shopping trolley

Actually u've already got them in a previous pic so nevermind, I'll get them up

White would be outstanding, but hard to keep clean. Beige might look a bit odd, but would be maintainable and match the interior. U 2 fussed about the numberplates being in the pics or shall i edit them out?

alot of f*cking around to get the bumpers to fit. And personally I worship the tech1's. U've seen the pics of when I cleaned it up when I had it at uni haven't u, should I post them up?

One day ur gonna pull a U'y, and the other person will as well, then u'll be stumped

Could of been vince, was he driving like there was a tidal wave coming?
