I know of a sorted M3 evo locally with coilovers

What cars did BMW make that used a 215mm diff with a ratio of about 3.64:1, cheers...

Realistically:

Engine complete - Ã‚£2500
gearbox - Ã‚£600
diff - Ã‚£200
wheels - Ã‚£400 if mint
interior - Ã‚£600
m3 mirrors - Ã‚£160+
m3 bumper - Ã‚£150?

I have heard that the housing for an M3 evo diff is unique, for the prop from the 6 spd box. The stock gear ratio is 3.23:1, how easy is it to up the ratio to 3.43:1 or 3.64:1 say, and is there any other bmws that contain such gearset ratios that would be compatible?

Jamie one day you will knowingly quote some cr@p you've read somewhere, some poor sod will mistakenly think you're an expert engine builder or something (because that's how you come across!), take your advice as gospel and destroy their engine. :eek: as far as your running-in technique goes, it mig...

Would a replacement siren/ken second hand from a breakers be a case of a straight swap, would it work ? and is the wiring easy to replace...

Not sure if this is the right place to post but, my 1994 316i E36 had the siren deactivated i.e. turned off with the key so that it doesn't make any sound. I have now lost said key, is it easy to find a replacement or are the keys uniques to each car? Failing that, would it be easy to fit a louder a...

you have pm

Both engines are light four pots so would handle well, 204 bhp stock from the diesel remappable to 240 bhp with no other mods so slightly ahead of an S14 stock and when chipped.

S14:
Higher reving
Potential for more power modified / as a 2.5

N47:
More torque (400nm stock)

I am 99% sure that they are not, with the B25 being more agressive

I know that, but I mean what did they do to the engine... or does no one know

Whats so special about the race engine that bmw used to make over 1400 bhp from 1.5 litres?

^ he had been infected by munky

Jhonno I still have my 3.2 evo head, remember I took pics of it for you, but in the end we discovered it wasn't complete as it was missing the cam carrier. PM me.

What causes a car to pop out of gear?

I thought that after the late i.e. 2004 e46 facelift that these engines produced more power / were available in the X3? I also thought that the 530i that uses this engine comes with the better tune.... or am I totally confused

go away

Basically my balljoint/bush at either end of the e36 rear lower control arm has been busted as its worn out or broke when adjusting the now un-seized arm.

Is it easy to fit a replacement balljoint near the hub, or do you need a press?

What about the bushing near the diff. carrier?

Anyone got a sound/video clip of a tuned up 6 cyl with a carbon airbox???

I could be tempted to get one if it gives me a noise anywhere near that!!!!!

m3 csl....

What negative camber do you run on your car, especially if its an m3. Is 2.0 degree -ve camber too much for street use?

Kandy colours are great for show cars and pampered cars, it is a little soft for an everyday car as it scratches really easy so I have heard.

I thought that was more to do with the laquer / top coat

^ get a bigger satellite dish / more sensitive LNB

Sorry but it looks like a fisheye lens and slow shutter speed that I can do on my Ã‚£200 camera...

redline gear max

I know that the indicators for coupe/cabrio are different from saloon/touring so I would say NO

silica gel sachets?

Ebay Ã‚£20 each, yes Ã‚£80 in total

whats up with the wheels

I am really confused, you don't even have a 318iS yet but you still recommend what other people say (obviously they will say zone chip on the zone board), not saying its good/bad as I don't have a clue as I havn't used it - neither have you, so don't be a parrot please.

that v12 is also a lazy engine too...

+1 to the above, the main dealer didnt even know that the e36 didnt have a check engine light so feck knows if 90% even know what an e30 is let alone worked on one, as apparently it is the word that most move on after a few years to "better" indy garages. Just that the majority of the main dealers d...

check the pulleys at the front of the car, one may need replacing.

could also be alternator interferance on your sound system?

IMHO E30 > E12 > E21
