E30 Zone

Phew, ive got complete rack,rod etc to fit and pipes was only thing stopping me. Soon as start new job you'll be getting a message. Cant wait to get my power steering back haha

>_< How long will you be doing the M20 pipes Dan as was made redundant and no money atm. Will have in about a month when start new job

would be so amazing of you could buy an off the shelf kit for the m20 and m5x Agreed. I have a E36 rack and the only thing stopping me fit it is the pipes, if someone just did a "kit" with both pipes to fit and E36 rack to an E30 with M20 engine for £60 like some have paid I'd order it and slap it ...

bah worth a try. dont wanna shell out £200 for some really lol.

Why in specific wont they fit?

Are these interchangable. Mate has a set of adjustable E36 topmounts wondered if they'd fit my E30.

Thanks.

Well im thinking for the MOT ill remove the belt and drain the fluid and run it as a manual rack so it gives me time to fit the '36 rack properly.

Just means poverty steering for a week or so lol.

Still gotta figure out too why my brake pedal is sticking down and not returning back up

Havent managed to do it yet so will have to be done this week sometime

Might blag town into helping me and we'll try and take some good pics etc so can give a proper guide as to whats required and needed etc...

Lichfield, Staffordshire.

15mins from Town325

Well where else would one suggest getting pipes?

I have a complete 328sport rack,pump,pipes and bottle. wanna get it done tomorrow got MOT next friday and E30 rack is leaking.

looked on the wiki, just says custom pipes. nothing specific of sizes, lengths and fittings.

What sizes/fittings/length of pipe do I need to fit an E36 rack to my E30. All I can find is that you need some making up... Surely someone must know the length and the size of fittings...? Wanna fit mine tomorrow and just goto Pirtek (open till 12pm) and say I need X pipe making up thank you please.

standard or evo?

fcuk me! you seen the price of those treehouse parts?!

found these:

rang but no answer

Stealers now want as near as dammit £80 for a pair of M3 Eccentric LCA bushes, so thought i'd go for polybush instead. Now is powerflex the only people who make them?

Tried a couple of places and they all say 2-4 week wait, I need them this week (MOT a week tomorrow...)

I am looking for a price for the brake pedal return spring which is in the passenger footwell.

When I depress the pedal the brakes work, but the pedal does not return to its original position.

Thanks,

Bryce

I havent removed the spring, just wondering if that is indeed the cause of the pedal not coming back up after pressing it.

I had a look on realoem but couldnt find which part number it was

Over the last few days my brake pedal has been sticking after ive pressed it and im having to use left foot to pull it back up.

Solution?

Me and town325 replaced M/C few months back n its been fine for ages. Theres a return spring in passenger footwell, something to do with that?

hes a top bloke

Its engine, manifolds and starter. No box, so be about 150kg then, cool means can get the 227 kg engine stand aswell when I start the rebuild. Any good engineering places in the midlands for honing and lighten and balancing? CotswoldBMW? You'll have to excuse my silly questions, tis my first BMW use...

How much does it weigh? Does anyone know?

Im getting one palleted up to me this week and I also wanna get an engine stand so I can start to strip and rebuild it.

Wheres the best place to get rebuild parts, stock and uprated?

Hes a top bloke, think im keepin him in business lol.

Window regulator, alternator and talks of a B25 conversion soon. Always willing and happy to help out

Take up town325's offer, he sorted my brake master cylinder out this week a treat and good price too

Top bloke, went and got a brake master cylinder today and even managed to wangle fitting at same time.

Gladly deal with again.

I tried this earlier to no avail.

But when I read it it just said pin 7 and 19 iirc nothing about a "good earth"

So I connected them together with some wire and turned ignition on but did sweet FA lol, so I need to splice into the jumper and ground the lot?

Ok thanks. I think it's more than just bleeding because you press the brakes and they bring you to a stop. If u keep your foot down on the pedal the brakes stop working and you have to reapply them or use the handbrake.

It's a 1988 F reg 320i saloon.

Hi everyone, just bought myself an E30 320i, love it but it has a very bad brake problem. If you "drag" the brakes upto traffic lights or roundabouts they don't work but if you push hard on the pedal they work properly. The guy I bought it from said its the master cylinder? Just wondering is this tr...
