E30 Zone

It's idling fine now, had an air leak. Got to mount the rad and plumb it in tomorrow, source an exhaust from somewhere too...

It was completely rebuilt from the ground up, don't know much about its past though. I had bridged the dme relay with no luck, however I put a spare relay in it and she roared to life! Pretty loud with Just a manifold on! Got to try and get it to idle now...

Have also rechecked timing, found to be a tooth out and corrected. Still no joy.

I have just fitted an M20 to a 318i, plugged it all in but it won't fire up. I've tested CPS, spark and fuel are present. The c101 car side has a red/yellow wire at pin 20 and the engine side has no wire. I've also tested for 12v at the ecu block pins 27 and 18. Can anyone point me in the right dire...

Mine is an NI one, so not worth it then

I'm worried regtransfers or something would take a huge chunk. The reg is SXI 6816

I'm trying to raise some funds, and i'm not a great fan of private plates. Was wondering how to go about selling mine?

We have another car the same that runs at 25 on idle

Make sure you all come say hi to me, I work for Lohen, so come check out our stand! Unfortunately i wont have the E30, i'll be in one of our Cooper S's

Been workking on a supercharged car, its not boosting properly and the temp after the SC and before the I.C is very high, around 75 degrees. Anyone got any ideas as to why? I have tried two different chargers with no effect.

What places offer a check on wheels?

Today I put the two with brand new toyos fitted by myself on the front and the older tyres on the rear, this firmed up the steering, and moved the wobble from 40-50 to 60-70mph. Feels better but there is still a slight wobble. I'm going to change the lower arm asap (anyone got one with bushes?) and ...

No I'm not sure At all, they may be?

The rings I have are plastic from spigotrings uk or something. They don't clip or push in as they seem the tiniest bit too small and I mean the tiniest.

Yea I suppose, but I ran 16s with 205 45,s on and it wasn't this bad...

It's a lot to think about! I may try swapping fronts to rear as one front one needed nearly 80g to balance it and didn't give me the best cofidence. I should get a new wishbone too, changing them is a bastard tho right?

Feels like it does. I have not been above 40 or 50 as it shakes and puts me off!

Not that I can heAr. Steering feels lighter too...

Bump...

Also, the steering wheel used to sit pretty straight when driving straight, now it's rotated about 30-40 degrees clockwise

I have Spigots on, and balanced them myself. I think the passenger front wishbone is bent but it didn't cause the sHaking on other rims

Put my alpina reps on, however the steering now wobbles after about 40mph. It didn't with the stock wheels. Any ideas? Balanced the wheels too

MIJ Exhausts in Walsall?

There is a lead that goes through the bulkhead in front of the passenger's feet then along the left side of the engine bay. One wire goes to the air temp sensor which plugs into the left-hand air tunnel that leads from the air intake in the spoiler. The other wire goes to the horn (sounds if immobil...

To be honest i'm not selling the car yet, but I don't like the plate, make me an offer, although I have no clue on how to sell a plate?!

Did not come with caps, I will order some on pay day! They are quite curbed anyway though... Those are the rings im using, they sit on the hub nicely, but dont click into the wheels, have the smallest amount of movement

OK, i'm going to be there at the Lohen stand (New Mini Tuners) where I work so come say hi! Hoping they let me take the tech1 down, but i'd imagine i'll be driving one of our show Mini's instead...

IS anyone going along to this?

Hahaha, i get bored of the bbs though, i'd have to invest in negaro paint for the centers for them to go back on! You can have her, how much

Spigot rings arrived today, they seem slightly loose, not as tight as some i've fitted... Anyway I got them on at last. Got steering shake after around 50mph though...

All great ideas, lets get some printed.

Kind of thing?

Haha, yer something like that.

I don't know really, I de-badged mine a while ago, but part of me still wants everyone to know what I drive without having a big silver 325i badge.

What do you mean? I don't think there ever was one? I'm wondering if anyone has made one, as in not an OEM sticker?

Has it been done?

Ordered some now, If wrong I'll try that instead
