I'll get some pics up later.

There won't be any rear passengers, the 245's will rub

It was blue fabric in not to great condition when I bought it. Now replaced with new upholstered beige leathers.

I don't like the look of rear headrests on a cab so opted to leave them out when getting the interior re-done.

Oh and a pic of how it looks with the alpinas.

Just a short update. 24v ftw!

This unit will be fitted in the nearby future. M52b28

Post #47 about 3/4 down the page. A white vert on turbines.

E34 turbines ftw!

Yeah sucks big time but I'll work something out. I'm a carsalesman at Ford. Just had a job interview today, will hear the outcome tomorrow... Fingers crossed

No problem mate, got layed off work so I don't have much on my hands the next 5 weeks.
You can always give me a call. No seats yet

probably will be buying a new upholstery set.

You said crusty, crusty = old and perished. Why take a chance on something of little relevant cost that can potentially cause a break down? I'm not taking a chance with anything. All hoses were checked and in good nick, just crusty, which in this context = discoloured and dirty. When is it going in...

And available soon: http://www.otto-models.com/index.php/en ... ail&id=208

That's expensive! I payed 44,- euro. And with shipping 55,-.

Surely there must be cheaper ones on eBay.

There are a few more models in that picture that aren't available yet.

This will be available this summer.

Otto models are metal, only thing is nothing can be opened and the wheels can't steer. Other than that the details are good for the price you pay. Paint has a good finish and the interior is nicely detailed. The 2 door will be arriving in about two weeks and words are that it will also be available ...

I have this one from otto models, its in 1/18

And I have this one in pre order. Also 1/18

The funny thing is the discs of the z3m and e36 m3 are the same as are the carriers, but the callipers are different. Sourcing the discs won't be a problem, neither will the carriers but the callipers might be an issue.

Thanks, I will have a look in his topic.

No I mean e46, the discs are 325 mm

I will be using a 330i front setup on my cab, so that will have 325mm front rotors with e46 330i callipers. Now I'm looking for a suitable rear upgrade. I am running an e36 318ti rear axle so it's allready 5 stud. I remember having read somewhere on the net that 120d rear discs are suitable for the ...

EBay is your friend.

A little update. Got my hands on a cheap 2.5 so chucked that in for the time being. Also fitted a 5 stud setup using an e36 318ti rear axle and e36 325i front hubs and a cheap coilover set on the front. Dont mind the wheels, they are tamporary as my style 20's didn't fit. I have a nice refurbed 17" ...

This is on 205/50/15

Try finding some e46 330i/d callipers for a normal price

Meyle discs are about 80 quid.

True, if I were to put a heavyweight in it might as well be an m60

I really want to have a 6pot and more than 12 valves.
Also 24v's are better on fuel than an m30 anchor...

Yup, they are the same as pre facelift cars.

I'm not really looking for a "hybrid" engine build, just a straigt forward swap.
It will probably be an m52 as that will give me a little bit more power than the old m50 but wont cost me as much as an s50...

Lol v12 is not an option.

You have to remove them from the valance.

You also need other air ducts to fit the tech 2 valance, they have to be longer.

Proper cool ride dude! I spotted it on Discovery last Thusday

Hi lads, I had an M50 fitted to my last car, a more door 320ia. It was a good engine wich made about 200 bhp. Now that I have the convetible I want to do another swap. I don't want to do another m50 as this car is heavier than the 4 door so it won't be as fast. M52 is an option but they are getting ...

Thos are not hardtop mounts. They are just used to put the little black cap in too.

Hardtop mounts have a plastic insert and both have a wire connected for the heated screen.

MartinSE wrote:320i's really are wonderfull. Very nippy and alert. Rev beutifully. Of course quicker than the iS. Very close to the 325 actually.

This, they are also way better on fuel.

I bought this one, good quality.

Jep, Autoart and Minichamps are great detailed models.
Hotwheels elite are also good.

Otto models are shite, good details on the outsite but bonnet, doors etc can't open, it can't even steer. I have the e30 m3 vert of them.

Facelift m10's were only 316i

I'd say et 20 front and 15 rear.
