E30 Zone

Yeh mate there was some awesome roads, twisty just doesn't cover it! Yeh there was only 2 cars, it was ok though it was easy to keep track of each other. I like the photo of a Dartmoor rock formation with me in the door mirror having a cheeky look! :twisted: Looking forward to the next one, hopefull...

I'm up for this, I love having a blast down some twisties! Car had a few running issues but it seems to have sorted itself now. I think she needs a good drive like this because I've been using her for my daily commute of 90 miles and shes probably got a bit clogged up with the economical driving! I'...

Just been for a drive and it was fine, crusing, accelerating and tick over all fine!

I've got a 100 mile commute to and from work tomorrow so that'll be a good test for it!

Sorry Brian, please see edit

Is it likely that a DME relay could be faulty because it seems that a lot of zoners are suffering the same problem?Intermitant power cuts when using the accelerator

I'll have to film it and get a video posted up!

It's the intermitant thing that gets me. It last did it about a month ago, then six months ago before that. It just doesn't make sense! I have done alot more miles in it recently though so maybe we've booked in for a kangaroo-show every few thousand miles! :D How easy was it to get at the DME relay?...

I got a FACELIFT 316i and the inner rear arches went on mine right into the sills and my Dad used the outer rear arches from a PRE-FACELIFT E30 as they had the right angles needed.

Random but it worked and the arches were only £20 each!

I think it would be worth you having a look at Sparkys responses to his 'electrical or fuelling problems' thread as mine is doing the same as yours only when accelerating and there are a few more ideas on there

I was just about to put a post up like this because mine has just started doing it again! :roll: However today I did notice that it's only when I use the accelerator that it starts cutting out rather than all the time but I think it may just be warning me this time! When I pulled over the revs would...

Thanks Brian. Are they expensive to replace?

Or can i get one from a scrapper?

Hi All,

my Dad had a look at the distributor cap but thats all good.

Brian, sorry to sound stupid but whats a DME relay? There's no mention of it in the Haynes manual
Is it in the fusebox with the other relays?

Thanks again

Thanks Georgen i'll get my Dad straight on it when he gets back from work and i'll let you know what he finds!

Hi All, I have a 1989 316i that has 180,000 miles on the clock and she seems to have developed bit of a 'cough' when cruising. I've been doing a 100 mile round trip in the old girl on Tuesdays to Thursdays for the last couple of weeks and this is on a 50mph road and a short piece of dual carriageway...

I also wanted to remove the aerial and smooth the rear wing so i got one of those hideaway aerials but it's a pile of pants! I've put it in the boot and got no reception so i moved it under the parcel shelf and now i can get the local radio station which i could get without an aerial or a fuzzy Radi...

Sorry fellas but i won't be able to make this. I got made redundant at the end of September and i haven't found another job yet so funds are going to be running abit low!

But if i find something between now and then i'll definitely put my name down

That looks really good mate. Nice colour too.

The only thing i'd change is lose the boot spoiler

Good effort mate. Always good to see an E30 saved from the scrapper

You definitely won't lose that in a car park!

Jacko thats a really good looking car you got there mate. Fair play!

I'd say you bagged yourself a bargain there mate. Lovely colour.

Are those rear lights MOT-able with red indicators?

Your car is mint mate. I like subtle installs and i like all the buttons on your dash, no blanking plates anywhere!

Good job

I just wanted to say i had a great day yesterday, it was good to meet up with a few more zoners and put some faces to names. I was also well impressed with the turnout.

Big thanks to Eko for the no power steering idea because it meant I was able to show up!

Looking forward to the next meet.

Dan

Many thanks all. Im going to cancel the MOT i dont want to take the chance Jay - i hope your right mate. Going to get it on the ramps and have a better look tomorrow night Brian and Dobbie - if it has to be a replacement rack my Dad can get trade prices or i know a guy who's got me recon parts befor...

Does anybody know what could cause leakage from the power steering because it's p***ing out every time I turn the wheel.

Could it be coming from the seals at the end of the steering arm? If so are they easy to replace?

If you need any more info let me know. Any help is much appreciated

IMO all your mods done so far are for the better. Good luck. Tidy looking motor

They'll be meeting me in Yeovil

and me!

Rosco, where are you thinking of meeting in Yeovil? You thinking Cartgate area or leading them through Yeovil, maybe meeting Sherborne side?

What size are they? They look massive. 18's? 19's?

I saw this too looks like it could be a good shout. I've never done a track day before but i'm willing to give it a go.

i love the blue with the tan interior. Sweet looking car mate

I'll be there on Sunday

Yeh i'd be up for this. I went to a couple last year there were some nice cars there. I'll check i'm not doing anything and i'll get back to you.

Oh i wont be able to meet up before though because i'll go via the A303 but could meet up there

Colour code the bump strips and door handles and get some clear side repeaters and i think that will finish it off nicely

Are those alloys Kahn RSS? They look very similar to mine just more of a chrome finish mine are more of a matt silver

This is very similar to my car just more extreme. Fair play for having the balls to do it mate it's always good when someone does something contraversial :) I like the lambo doors and the all white look. The red rear lights look good too. The only thing im really not sure about is the vent on the fr...

ended up in the middle of nowhere i was enjoying the drive that much

Don't you just love it when that happens!

Good looking car by the way

sorry bout the E9 guys it was at the same meet and IMO best lookin BM ever made (after the e30 of course!)

My Dad had an E9 25 years ago but had to sell it 23 years ago when i was born because he couldn't afford to keep it and a baby. Damn me

It was a rarer 2800 CS too!

I'd love some sport seats in mine.

What's the red button for next to the gear stick?
