Re: Converting to 5 stud. Pro's and Con's

Re: 325tds engine into e30

i'm sure there's an e30 with a 2.4 diesel, i think an e36 tds would fit in as easy as an m50 swap would be, would you be doing the work yourself or paying a garage?

The theory behind them is good, and they may well offer some gains; I seem to recall a slight improvement in smoothness and possibly slightly extra mpg on a long run, but certainly nothing to shout about. But then, mine were free samples so it didn't cost me anything to try them out, so mustn't gru...
