Hi guys, Been a long time! Thanks for all the comments :D I have been trying to sort out the cable harness chaos lately, and it's starting to get better. I have also mounted the dashboard, wired up the heater system and some other things in the dash. :D I don't have so many pictures of this, and it'...

Thank you guys!
No, this is the harness for the E30 M3. I pulled out the entire harness when i did the prep-work in the floor, so this is just a replacement for the old harness

The engine harness is the only from E36 M3.

Thank you both! Had to do something today too... nothing is like spending a saturday afternoon at work. :rolleyes: I think the pictures speak for themselves... http://lars.gfxdesigners.com/Bilder/E30/IMG_2100.JPG Started carefully... http://lars.gfxdesigners.com/Bilder/E30/IMG_2107.JPG http://lars.g...

Good luck with the project!
Looking forward to any update!

Okay guys, time for a small update... I have welded the rust in the floor, painted it and installed some sound deadening material. I have also painted up the pedals and mounted brand new ///M Pedals, and mounted the gear shifter. So now it's almost done... lol ;) Got my new wiring harness today, so ...

Nothing huge is happening atm. I have started to clean the floor and remove some rust. Three holes needs to be welded. No big deal :) Drivers side. A rust hole in the front left corner. http://lars.gfxdesigners.com/Bilder/E30/IMG_1884.jpg Passenger side, couple of holes... http://lars.gfxdesigners.c...

Nice project you got there!
Can't wait to see more....

I'm a bit curious of that exhaust manifold of yours... what type is it?

Thank you very much

HaHa, I used to fit out Fire Engines too a while back. Scania's mainly. I thought all you Norweigans scoffed at Natural Aspirated cars though. Where's the massive Turbo? :wink: Keep us posted on the updates. :cool: Hehe, that's cool 8) Yes, we actually do that... hahaha, no seriously, I've never dr...

Thank you :) Here's some pics I took today. I bolted the engine up and the transmission-mounts and bushings. Did some other minor things, but nothing huge today. I will have to take a look at the exhaust manifolds, and the brake system. My brake booster is a hydraulic unit from a BMW E32 and some ot...

Okay fellas, a small update! The engine is in!!! I have vacation right now, but I was at work to do some stuff on my M3. My girlfriend runs her own company as a gardener and is hired by the company I work for, so she was also there to do some gardener-stuff. But after an hour we found out that after...

Yeah, at the page I was refering to earlier that sells the spacer and engine mounts, it says to be mounted on the left side. But I wasn't sure if that was the cars left side, or the left side when you are facing the engine bay (Cars right side). Cause the most sensible thing would be, like you said,...

Hey, look at that... I missed that part

Allright, I will try the E28 M5 mounts

Thank you!

Actually, I don't know what car they came from. I will check the part number today.
But what kind of engine mounts should I use, that is not as flexible, and do not require spacer on one of the sides?

Hi! It's time to drop in my S50B30, and somewhere for a while ago, I read something about a spacer on the left engine mount / mounting arm? How thick should this spacer be? And why do I need it (To clear off what)? And it's only on the left side? (The cars left side / Inlet side?) Thank you very muc...

What's with the low prices!?

Here in Norway, a good M3 is about $31.000, yes, thirtyonethousand dollars...

Well well, congrats with a racing legend

Thank you all :) I'm looking forward to get the car done. The goal is to get it done by next summer. Forgot to mention it, but the car is on FK Coilovers with yellow Koni dampers and Poly bushes. I should keep that for now, but I'm thinking of upgrading the brakes with a K-Sport 356mm 8-pot kit in f...

Thank you

Gazm3: 8,5 x 17" in the front and 10x17" in the rear.
215/45 in the front and 245/40 in the rear. Gotta love the stretch, but I'm going for a bit wider now when I buy new tyres. 225 or 235 in the front and 265 or 285 in the rear.

I don't know if you guys in the UK (and other places) will follow the same standard. I see that germany is still making almost only red fire vehicles, so does Sweden. It's actually depending on which fire department here in Norway that order the vehicles, as there ain't no standard color. So... we'l...

Should I be embarrased now, since my other cars aren't BMW's? :o: Ford Sierra Cosworth (With winter tyres :( ) http://lars.gfxdesigners.com/Bilder/Cosworth/DSC01456.JPG http://lars.gfxdesigners.com/Bilder/Cosworth/DSC01458.JPG http://lars.gfxdesigners.com/Bilder/Cosworth/DSC01520.JPG http://lars.gfx...

I love that flourescent coloured Fire engine, looks so diferent to the normal red one! That's the new standard for the fire vehicles here in Norway. It's not decided by the law or anything, but as the ambulances changed color to this color (Named "Rescue Yellow") the fire vehicles changed after a w...

Thank you

I posted some pics of it here...

None of the pipe, or the engine mounted... but as you requested; The whole car ;)

Hi! I tought i could post up some pics of my current project. I bought the car two years ago (Man, things are going slowly!), and after ONE day on the road when I got her back home I spun a rod bearing. The crankshaft was also destroyed. So, I ripped almost the whole car in pieces; engine, drivetrai...

Congrats

The E30 deserves a nice leather interior!

I build firetrucks / fire vehicles for a living. I like my job pretty much all the time. It's hard work and stress for some periods, but in the end I enjoy it very much :) And of course, having access to a lot of materials (Mostly aluminum), and a lot of useful equipment for fabricating stuff is gre...

I fitted this pipe on my S50 and it went in with no problems in an E30 M3.

Very nice project, and very nice fabrication skills. I am doing the same project myself, only a B30. I have always read that the original S50 exhaust manifold are hitting the sway bar or something. Isn't this true? If so, I will not need to modify my exhaust manifold... only the bulkhead. I will fol...

Hi! The engine is now finished and it's time to mount the transmission. This is a 5-speed ZF tranny. I'm going to buy a new short shift instead of mounting the old shifter again. I've hear a couple of things about which shifter to get, the E36 or the E30. So my question is; Do I have to buy a E30 sh...

That might be a problem then. I have bought the ECU from another engine. :roll: Well, I'll guess I remove it them. But what exactly is included in the "vapour recirculating system"? Is this black canister on the left side here included? (See picture - behind the windscreen washer fluid reservoir) Is...

Hi! I got a quick question about the fuel breather valve on my S50B30 Euro engine. The engine is from a RHD car, and now I am swapping the loom from a LHD car to match my LHD E30 M3. But the new LHD loom doesn't have the plug that goes to the Fuel tank breather valve which is located at the engine m...
