E30 Zone

I swear i read that the new focus RS creates some down force off the massive spoiler on the boot, may have imagined it though......

why would an e36 be so much more expensive, if i can find a car for same money but with a bigger engine and apparent better suspension or am i being naive

so for the engine better suspension and less rust an e36 is looking better.....dont look as good though!

i was contemplating a e36 aswell if i found one in better condition for same money, plus i could get a 328 much easier in a e36, why would it be slower though?? more weight i guess but surly it would be a better handling car??

im not planning on getting thst much of a track car lol!! plus everything but the cage will be done by me and a mate so that should save a fair bit!! thought it coudl be done for £500, will jsut have to keep my eye out!!

thanks for all the advice so far guys!!!, i know it wont add up to much but once stripped i will be selling any parts so that will drum up some cash.... is a LSD vital at first?? most powerful car ive driven has had 130ps and FWD so no idea if i will actually need it seeing as the car wont be pushed...

thats a good point then it will only be an extra £60 more than the bushes on their own, another question i just thought of....is there any advantage of getting a coupe over a 4 door (strength weight etc) as obvously i want the lightest option so far essentials are: car Rollcage, seat, harness brakes...

ok seeing as the full set of polybushes are over £200 what ones should i start with? just the front or is the rear more usefull?? you say a cage wont be easy in the budget, how much would one cost on average? seeing as its a safety thing wouldn't want to attempt it myself! really jsut want to get it...

Used to own a humble e30 316i but moved onto newer thigns, however i now have a bug in my system to get one back and track the hell out of it, im thinking the normal (non-sport) 325i and just need some tips on what i should start doing to it in the way of suspension and brake upgrades, best roll cag...

is this true???

i tried moving the screws everywhere the middle seems to be the point where it locks more often than not either side of that is useless!!! and yes its an e30

haha good to know ive done something but this don't solve mine so anyone out there know of a cure???

ive done a search through the forum and cant find a problem similar to mine so here goes, since i had the car the central locking has intermitantly not worked from the drivers door, but worked from the boot and passenger sometimes controlling the drivers door sometimes not. so i finally gave in a st...

sorted, thanks for all the advice WD 40 was the key!!

I've tried twisting for about half an hour now and it just stretchs the rubber itself is they a special trick I'm missing as the metal seems to be clammped on the rubber and it won't bend!!! Please help as its taken over 3 days to get this far and really want to get going with it again

Thanks

how do i remove this type of mount???

if possible can i just remove the strap as the new exhaust used a fixed bar to mount to the rubber section

thanks

eventually with alot of pulling and wriggling from my brother and heat/hitting form me we got it off!!! thanks for the help!! just hope the new one slots into place

nothing is ever simple for me!!!! any more ideas i even tried tapping the end of a screwdriver in the gap but it doesn't want to budge at all

they wont budge!!! ive tried this and i dont want to damage the centre box-manifold part

I'm in the middle of changing the exhaust from the centre box back and after undoing all the bolts which was hard enough as they were all rusted on!! i've come to separating the seam only to be presented with this..... http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h113/arcanedefiance/Photo-0060.jpg PLEASE PLEAS...

cheers mate, much appreciated

i need to know the best place to jack up the rear end of the car from, enough to get axle stands of a decent height under the car, ive tried what i think is the rear mean but obviously cant get central as it curves, it got so far but the car started to creak so i decided rather than adding a hole to...

ahh ok i think she's got a guy coming round to sort it whilst he sorts out a problem with the airbag's and the heated rear screen, who said new bmw's were reliable!!!

my mum owns a e45 tourer , after getting in today she noticed that the heater/air con blower has stopped working. she has the climate control system, the screen works but no fans come on at any setting and we can feel heat coming out but there just isnt a fan, ive checked about 10 fuses that i thoug...

ahhh ok cheers

fancy sharing this easy way of changing it???

how hard is this to do on a 316i and how do i go about changing just the back box and the whole system aswell?

cheers
