E30 Zone

well i looked at this car 121000 miles, runs and drives perfect and very clean inside apart from seems very wollowy on the suspension, outside and underneath also clean but no history whatsoever just log book and mot. its of a mate and he wants Ã‚£800 minimum is that cheap ?

what do the 4 pot m10s go like ? and the 320/6 carb ? the only e21 ive ever had on the road myself was a 323i and that didnt run right either but still went ok.

its an auto saloon. will it have lsd ?

ive been offered a 530i v8 1996 top spec leather air-con bla bla bla. and its a very good price anyone know if there any good ? any major problems apart from the nikasil liner issue?
thanks

thats wicked stage 4 cossie power what boost is it running ?

well he was a blagger no paperwork, reckons its 2.7 and still on 2.3 standard fuel injection

i just thought whatever didnt even bother looking at it. rusty, no mot, ripped seats for 2k i dont think so. hes in dream land.

Agricultural. yep i am a farmer :twisted: No you ain't - I am though, and all my hammers are much bigger than that. Farmers all have big hammers, 'tis the only tool in the box :twisted: only a small farmer we only got 300 acres. main business is plant contracting caterpillar d6s and d8s and scraper...

Having owned and run two E21 323i's, it's not something I would own again. Think of the oldest and rustiest E30 and then go a generation older. Without the LSD and Bilsteins they are vile, roly poly sheds. A tidy Ã‚£600 325i is a far, far better car. A really nice E21 with a slipper and proper susp...

so if i check in my book for crank throw standard and see if it has more.

i may be going to view a car this week supposedly has a 2.7 in it. can anyone tell me how to tell the difference ?

done a quick write up under pics mate. hoping for 250 fly hp at 8 psi. and a welded diff

i cant think of anyone selling an e21 . if your just looking for a cheap temporary runaround until youve finished your turbo e30 a decent e30 325i could be picked up for well under a grand. do you have a thread on here detailing your turbo e30 project? dont expect great things from a turbo'd e30 wi...

325 turbo isnt finished yet. i intend it to be my winter car but may not be done til next year

i want something now and i do love the old e21 323i.

ok thanks. more strict on here than pf :cry: hello sir. was it you i recommended this place to on pf then? winkeye its not strict as such but the mods are on the ball. oh, and there is no mens room full of porn here either :cry: yeah mate the cos is soon going to bed for winter to much power for we...

thanks for comments people my 5k thoughts were well of then

my other option is 323i e21.

ok 2002 turbo way ott price my almost 500 hp cos was only 8k. just want a winterblast til the e30 turbo is done. gotta be oldschool what sort of price for a e21 323i ? not a minter just motd and working doesnt matter if work required anyone know of anything about ? must be 323i though else to slow :D

my mate has always wanted a 2.7 in an e30. i just wondered what the horsepower gain was to go from 2.5 to 2.7 without cams or anything just standard to standard ?

always loved them prices seem well ott though. there cant be many left now though i suppose.

ive just found a writeup on the net and it says a 10:1fmu on return side used in conjuction with original fpr will give 10 psi fuel for 1 psi boost so if uve already got 40 psi the fmu cant alter pressure until its reached the original fpr pressure and then after that it wont let any fuel return and...

if my fpr runs 43.5 psi fuel pressure and i use a 10:1 fmu rrfpr in conjuction with original fpr does that mean the fmu wont take effect until i get to 4.35 psi of boost ? then 50 psi for 5 psi boost, 60 psi for 6 psi boost and so on ? if anyone can just clarify or tell me im wrong

thanks

am i right in thinking that if i use a rrfpr or fmu in conjuction with my original fpr it will only affect fuel pressure once it has got to the level the original fpr is set at ? so if my standard pressure is 43.5 psi and i use a 10:1 fmu the fmu wont increase fuel pressure until im past 4.35 psi of...

just to clarify something there are turbos available from america that are very good ive run one on my old cosworth for 4000 miles at 22psi and it was still like new when i sold it.

i have sold over 50 of them now from my current supplier and i havnt had 1 comeback yet

ive just found a firm in america that sell a 7 psi chip for 22lb injectors 6900 rev limit and 93 octane fuel.
just gota wait to hear back from them now.

There are some chips that "they say" are mapped for upto 15psi but you're going to need big balls to try it. Of all the "parts" you could skimp on, I wouldn't advise you save on management, most important part IMO. HTH, Mark. il try anything car doesnt owe me anything and ive got the turbo, interco...
