Thats right, but last time I did one it leaked a little

Please do your research if you plan on using a M60 gearbox. I came across the information in the link below, but have no personal experience of doing the modification

Do you know that the early 5 or 6 speed V8 gearboxes can be drilled to accommodate the crank position sensor? You can buy gearbox converters to allow non V8 gearboxes to fit the M62, not sure if they work with the flywheel cps though. Also you need a clutch spacer apparently. Search Bmw V8 gearbox o...

Why 4.4 M60? I don't think the extra capacity is worth the effort.

If I was you I would use the complete package from the donor car M60 and gearbox it came with for the least hassle with the gearbox ecu. The swap is difficult enough.

The problem with wheels is that 17's give a bad ride, 15's look abit small and the compromise of 16's doesn't give you much choice in decent wheels. I had 16" alpinas on my old motorsport and recommend them, but doubt that you can find a decent set within your budget. Overall it might be best to sti...

Second hand ones will may leak on you like me. I'm going to try a new seal.

How about 205/55/15?

That is the stock size

Thanks, but mine didn't come out that good

Thanks, for digging that out.

My ring is from an E39 and it looks like the e30 ring needs to be removed to have any chance of fitting.

Do you have a picture of it fitted?

Ok thanks

Plastic cover around the Barrel

Does the E30 ring need to come off?

Can I fit an ews ring to my e30 ignition barrel?

If so, how?

Thanks

1,2,3 no
4, 200bhp+
5, 8 psi
6, use megasquirt and non stretch headbolts and go 14 psi

Your best to use the rear arms from a 325i then.

I've read that the calipers will bolt up, but why bother messing with all that when there are other options out there? How about this, https://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?depth=1&rurl=translate.google.co.uk&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http://www.300mm.de/294mm/294mm.htm&usg=ALkJrhhlaykL3VrhKNWAp...

As per title.

I would like to sit in and have a feel of them if that's ok.

Tried a couple of times today but no joy,

I feel like I'm missing out

How much was it in total fitted?

195 =

When I took the engine out all the wiring went with it. I'm left with the fuse box wire that goes directly to the battery.

I looked at the fuse box lid to find relay K5.

What do you mean terminal clamp? The ground near the battery?

The interior light connected to the door switch. Wipers also worked.

I shorted the pins under relay k5 because I don't have the other wires.

interior lights came on, but windows didn't work

IIRC one side of the coil goes to ground and the other goes to the the microsquirt. It should say in the manual. The icv helps to start the car when cold by adding extra air. You can do that yourself by pressing on the pedal for the first 45 seconds or so. On a non daily driver I think you can do wi...

Standard spark system is OK to get you started. Icv isn't required Read this: http://www.e30zone.net/e30zonewiki/index.php/Megasquirting_Your_M20 Gut a motronic ecu and use the pin outs table from the link above. You should be able to get a table for the microsquirt pin outs on the microsquirt websi...

That's the answer I was looking for, thanks

I guess 12 volts to the correct switches could work
