Ant does turbo's does he not ?

i personaly would go to some one involved in race car builds, i would say mosley motorsport but they ar shutting down. try simpson motorsport. they built one hell of a CLS track car

want an anwer, here's one m42, strip it bare and get the block checked out to make sure it has NO issues, then bore it, steel liners have custom crank made to let it rev to about 10,000. have the head worked and have cams made up to rev and make the power, custom light weight pipstions, low friction...

give than man a break, he could buy a good used s42 from and e36 touring car and drop that in !

1. why do i need to spend more on a suspension kit when the spax kit that is on my dads car with the roll bars, bushes etc handles exact;y how i want mine to. 2. exhaust system, if you have read i want to tune it quite a high level n/a over a period of time so why not invest in a decent exhaust and...

so despite the recomendation of bilstein/koni with H&R and eibach you go on ahead with the cheaper spax kit which seveal people have said are very poor in comparison to the other combinations metioned. this understanable if you are on a budjet, which it seem you are but you want "the best" exhaust s...

i have no problem, just interested to understand the method behind your madness i can not understand why you would happily pay over Ã‚£1000 for an exhust system an manifols ( it will probably cost Ã‚£1500 ) to give you 5bhp . when you are worries about cost factors on going for a 5 stud conversion a...

1an, you rejected the idea of ARB's in a previous thread, becuse it would bump up your insurance cost, and your 325i ARB upgrade (which you think is standard for insurance reasons because they are OE) were up to the job with, i cant seem able to find the post. also, you started 6 threads , all to do...

there was once upon a time a guy near me that had an e30 pick up apparently it was a genuine bmw conversion i doubt it the car i showed in the photo link was a demonstrator and would have been for the north american market, but never made it in to any form of production as i said apparently i would...

if you undo the 19mm bolt that goes through the bush on the diffs back cover, this lets the diff drop a bit and this makes its a little easier to thread through

a factory built e30 m3 pick up, designed for the US market but never made production

Simon i am listening hence why i posted this up, but you rejected everything that was said in previous post in realtion to suspension and the benefits of the M3 5 stud set up. have you done anything to improve your suspension apart from a full polly bush kit which you keep telling every one about. ...

a pukka 2.8 without issues will cost but it's the best power for the outlay of going down the engine conversion route this side of M-power. It's got power locked in it as we all know. Ian listen for once and not dismiss everyones ideas one by one. All this talk of 6 pots being nose heavy understeer...

will you be doing this after the e30 M3 stud suspension set up and big brake set up ?

now at 7 pages which explains nothing which the "clued up" forum members dint already know, it just shows different opinons and this often reflects how deep our pockets are. a sport is more desirable than any 325i se or speced up 325i, and it will always command a premium. end of. any one notice how...

i've seen bilseins which are still in good condition last well over 50,000 miles.

i've seen one painted in a silver blue alfa pearl, it looked pretty good

it will be fine

are you kos? anyway i think its time i left this subject alone ............ but just to answer your question as i think its rude to not answere any question, no i am not. but i do recall the M3 he was building an e30 M3, with a full body restoration, that re build / project thread seems to have gon...

late sports (tech 2's) , and IS's had boge, as did e30 M3's

only tech 1's had billies

i may be wrong though

i spotted the bonnet lining as well, didnt spot the grab handle though. the question is, whats an e30 M3 shell worth with no ID ? so technically its a ringer so to speak, and it depands how the ID's been changed, complete scuttle or just the section the vin numbers cut and changed . get your hands u...

i think it could be an e30 m3 shell but with the IS's vin key M3 give aways bonded front and rear screnes early spec rear pannel the headlining looks like its black fabric, like an m3, sports and some IS's had black vynal the clocks, and gear nop are e30 m3, but these can be added to any car easily ...

oakey, you had some holes patched up, hardly the most difficult of jobs, but for Ã‚£500 which ia a reasonalble price i would be happy, but i wouldnt want to see the welds. you say you have no intention of selling the car, but either way be it selloing the car, or keeping it i'd want a job done thats...

did i say he should spend the money ?? did i say he should fix it ?? i just stated waht it would really cost, and every one seems to be throwing their toys out the pram granted that desireable e30 like M3's alpinas etc should be saved if possible, and anythinng is possible. and on this note, oakey s...

well, i gave my input for what it would cost to do the job right, but no every one wants to "patch it up" with fiberglass. thats shocked me. whats the issue if i think job should be done right ?? i just commented on what i can see, and what i would have done. but some one doesnt like my point of vie...

sorry didnt understand that ? made no sence to me at all.

ar regards to my skills, i'm not on here to show what i do, just contribuit in feild i have an understanding of, however if my point of view and contribution is not liked i wont bother

http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o103/daveoakeshott/rearrightcroner.jpg Whats badly done about this? Absolutely nothing, it doesn't have to be pristine down here anyway as its hidden by the Tech I rear bumper. As long as its solid (and it looks like it is) it really don't matter what it looks lik...

S50 into e30, its been done several times. there are at least 10 on this forum bmw V8 into e30, there's one on this forum, but several other V8 powered e30's in the UK (bmw and other ) these conversions are getting common now and people have been doing them for about 6 years, but they are good though.

^I wasnt talking about a immaculate repair! The bloke was talking about fibreglassing it for feks sake! Typical bodyshop man. Mate, sarcasm IS rude! Ã‚£330 to repair that :? Ps. Why would you say the work on my car is amature? because you can see where it has been welded? Have you got any pics of y...

Mate, try and refrain yourself from rude comments such as "what planet are you on". If you think I'm wrong feel free to tell me but politely please! Whats with people's lack of respect and common decency?! :mad: Have a look at my "pimp my tech1" thread in the photo gallery. The pictures only show a...

cut out rust and clean up area , shape metal and tack it up to line it all up , weld it up, grind away welds flat , some filler work and re shape it all, then primer and paint ? Ã‚£100, good luck if you supply a section cut from an other car, and get them to cut out infected are and welded in the ne...

right, im going to side with pacerpete and shoot most of the doom sayers down. thats not as bad as it looks and is probly caused by the rear panel being done at somepoint or damage from putting somthing in the boot that hasnt been delt with, its hard to tell in the pictures but does it continue aro...

its an age old argument that will always exist, and based on an individuals personal taste and preference. one is not better than the other there is no winner you tell me which is better, golf MK1 or MK2 , 16v or 8v or G60 ?? you can not, all you can say is which one you prefer and why. my view on t...

i am guessing you blended in to the original laquer and not paint the complete panel?? not being a pesimist but being in the trade i'll post my views. its very hard to get a decnt finish from a spray can, especailly novice. painting out side in cold conditions will not help either especialy with the...
