E30 Zone

ok, well i go tthem here waiting so when ever your free just pop round for them.

thanks for the good words

glad your happy with them

oh how i miss the 100 miles to £20 of petrol i'm lucky now to get 80 odd miles with granny driving in my mr2 tubby, hit the loud pedal and you can get that down to about 12mpg and that's super unleaded petrol :cry: :cry: definately got to get myself another E30 still cant beat them for reliability a...

Thats just cosmetic rust compared to the 1957 Plymouth im doing, I nicked named her Flintstone as there was no floor, boot or cills to speak of and that was the better bits of the car lol Have fun will be worth it in the end.

would be cheaper to find a manual one unless your car is in 100% condition body work wise

LOL, i remember when i first got my E30 and was going to go on my first meet in Birmingham i got there no one else turned up, maybe the 2nd meet would be better, i got there, no one else turned up ... hmmm, maybe the 3rd would be better....... wouldn't know as i never turned up as i was fed up with ...

I have a starter i think i have 2 infact, can have one for £15 let me know and will sort one out

Unless chassis & body wise it is in excellent condition it aint worth going down the conversion route especially if you cant do it yourself as it will cost £££ Lets face it by the time you have changed the engine, diff, suspension (front and back), prop, brakes (front and back) ECU & loom there woul...

hi

Prices are very good especially the OBC only £45

, seen those go for close to £90

If i still had my 325i on the road i would snap your hand off for a few of these bits.

Good luck with selling them

1st i would replace the slave cylinder with one off a 325i as you said that your gearbox came from a 325i. The one fitted right now is from your 318i then rebleed system.

If that dont work then you have a headache of taking gearbox off and checking the fly wheel is correct.

its the fuel pressure regulator and split will only loose petrol which is pretty damn bad considering the price of the stuff now

the stuff they use is called Shultz this is sprayed on, costs about Ã‚£6 a bottle and will need 2 or 3 bottles........oh and a compressor and underbody spray gun (Ã‚£12 from machinemart)

i have a rear screen in b'ham same price Ã‚£20 collected

This has been asked loads of times, it aint realy worth it unless your car is in A1 condition.

Just sell your auto and buy a manual has always been answer as you can pick up a fairly good 325i for just under 1k

the best way of removing vinyls is with a steamer, like what you would strip wallpaper off walls. Falling that a hot air gun and if you dont have either a hairdryer.

1st 1 i would have, the second one looks like its being converted for use as a snow plough

i thought that, i sold mine for a mr2 turbo, yes its a hell of alot faster than the 325i but for driving i missed my 325i so much i bought another only 2 months after getting rid of it.

Keep your bm and save then buy the 205 or your going to regret selling your bm............trust me

isnt that why they have unmarked police cars, to catch people out

LOL, in that case go for it

The points will carry onto your provisional license, they dont some off becuase you were banned and got YOUR lisence back. They stay on there till they are spent and then you have to send ur lisence off and pay for them to be removed. As for trying to play dumb and not sending it off, they will scre...

When i had my 325i i had no problem getting out of side roads etc... Little boy racers on a saturday night had fun with them in their saxo's, jesus even a 1.1l metro tried it on. At the moment i drive a mr2 turbo and so far only had 1 guy try to race it and that was some chavy knob in a golf gti, he...

Are you really going to drive this on the roads

Different i guess, but wont do anything for your street cred unless your gonna black out all windows so no one sees you driving it

If you need a new starter motor i have 1 for Ã‚£15 im in birmingham so not a million miles away You can have a choice of 2, both work perfectly

i doubt you will find any classic insurance with a 10k mile limit, i tihnk 5k is the most. There is a simple way of getting over this though..................disconnect the speedo cable, ok you wont know how fast ur going but them ur mileage dont go up either. Just have to judge ur speed and watch o...

i wouldnt say that was being racist what he said, probably just the truth. But soon the immigration rules are changing so that people wanting to live in tis country HAVE to speak english. But then the accident was your fault since u were driving without due care and attention and ur pissed off with ...

I'm sure that when he sold that car he said it had a 'full stainless steel exhaust fitted' when in fact it was a standard exhaust with chromed tail pipe fittings put on it. Im sure all the questions asked by the buyer are scripted for the show or else if i was the guy buying it would have pulled him...

when i did mine i used the lowing springs and boge gas shocks from GSF held the road pretty good and not to hard. I also changed all the bushes etc as well as tie rods and wish bones can remember the full price but was less than Ã‚£500 for the lot

try BMW i had a price to do my tappets from a garage was about Ã‚£100. BMW Dealer was cheaper was only Ã‚£79+VAT atleast they will know what they are doing.

Front fog are not tested in MOT

Simple jobs that turn into a pain in the ass have got to be the worst as u dont expect to spend long on them. At least if ur ripping out a rear diff or fuel tank you know it aint going to be easy and allow yourself a day or 2 to do it. Worst for me was changing distributor cap on m20 to find that 2 ...

probably for doing a 70mph drift on a public road!!!!..................not exactly clever is it...........hence the results of it

Im waiting on some one to post why insurance is so high for young drivers then all i have to do is post a link to this article

I think it will answer the question perfectly.

looks like zinnobar red to me same as mine

Helps if we know how many mpg ur getting first but from what i have heard you get roughly the same as a 325i.

Mine around town does about 24mpg but then i dont exactly drive like the local vicar.

When was the last service - Air filter etc?
Are the tyres the right pressure?
Air leaks?

The wire that you have that goes to no where could be the green capped one which goes to the indicator stalk. The OBC has a special indicator stalk that when pressed it scrolls through the OBC display.
