E30 Zone

cool so both m20 dizzy and leads are compatible with m30
the choice of m20 aftermarket leads are plentiful compared to the m30
and genuine one are silly money so i hear

i think i recall someone saying m20b25 ignition leadsare capatible with m30's !
can anyone confirm that they are ?
what about lead length ?

so my buddy needs me to weld a new battery tray in his e30
where will i find a new replacement !
i know they are avalible as i have seen them used in peoples resto threads?
any ideas guys ?

awesom thanks

To clear this up as it confused at least two of us

I used 328 manual prop with e30 centre bearing !
E36 centre bearing is too wide for the e30 trans tunnel
Hope this helps someone

So jus did my swap It started :D Car was 4pot 318is ( rpm gauge was rev happy on start up) This wasn't my problem as I sourced 6pot 325 clock with correct plug in ! I replaced all cluster bulbs carefully one at a time avoiding any mix up , so they were nice and fresh :mad: This is where my problem h...

Just built mine to the same spec you mentioned ! Single mass,e28 535 Sachs clutch (sprung clutch) and pressure plate E30 325 clutch slave Note : I got shorter bolts from main dealer for single mass fly also a shim/ spacer I pulled part numbers from Realoem.com when searching e28 535i manual Hope tha...

Briammoooore thanks so much !
Few small tasks left oil,filter,plugs ,fresh oil etc
Then start it

Yes it does and two wires swaped as via swap guide

Great thanks ! Where does the blk and brown go ?
Just curious before I cut it

I don't believe the blk/brown pin 15 from engine loom of c101 does go to 8mm on starter as the only wire connected here is blk/grn ! So I will pull pin out from body/fuse box c101 Then extend wire and put on 5mm (8mm nut) of starter solenoid ! So I am correct in thinking that blk/brown and black/gre...

just been in garage this morning
my starter is wired as above with same colours
body/fusebox c101 has blk&grn in pin 15
engine loom c101 has blk&brown in pin 15

what do i do ?

yes guys the starter pictured is the same as mine and is a bosch item
also engine and loom both from 91'e34
I also have connections at 9 & 3 o'clock can't be sure on colours until this evening

1.yes starter has 3 terminals
2.m30 engine loom has small insulated wire with ring and is already fitted to 8mm nut
unsure on colours check tomorrow night
3.body side has wire in pin 15 (grn/blk)

am i aready done jus connect body and engine c101
thanks for helping

It's just one wire I know , but I am still unsure
Do I remove pin 15 from c101 plug engine loom or fuse box side ?
Or tee into it and run a wire down from the underside of c101 to starter

Ok so I take it from the m30 loom not body side ?
But if I do have it in both then leave alone !
E30 is 318is facelift

Cheers ! I stood and looked at 328 prop on the floor and could not see a the reason to flip it !
By eye it looked like it wouldn't really move the mounts to body on centre bearing forward or back

Cheers guys but do I tee into it or remove from c101 completely and move it to starter !

thanks but did you mean 8mm
my starter has 13mm 10mm and a 8mm
also do i remove it from c101 completely or just add a wire to it from the underside of c101

pin 15 on c101 does this go to body ground or to the 8mm on starter
thanks in advance
i hate wiring

when fitting a 328 manual prop !
guide say reverse centre bearing !
do i fit the e30 centre bearing reversed
or reverse the e36 328 centre bearing ?
thanks for any help

Bought a lsd of Bryron last weekend very honest guy knows his e30's
Very happy with my slipper as I broke it down for inspection and true to his word is in great shape
And he is a fellow welshman
Tidy butt

Nice thanks guys ! I am in contact with d&t sorting my items :

Great I have already emailed drive and traction to see exactly what they stock and cost of such goodies !
Who is Gareth you speak of I am not familiar

Thanks for your input

I am aware of rally prep in Cornwall Who supply a pair of clutches and dog ears ( standard 2.0 mm) unlike porka 2.1 This costs £130 for 2x clutch 2x dog ears I would need 2x kits :mad: £260 This is before I try to source 2.1 porka dog ears Or do I machine 3.8 or 3.6 mm use standard 2.0mm dog ears ! ...

Do those red wires you mentioned need stripping back to go to the + battery term.
I hate wiring too

What did you pay if you don't mind me asking?
I saw these 4sray nozzle ones which claim a cleaner burn /detonation are they what you have bought

So I am we'll into my m30 rebuild and when my missiz is watching big brother

I find myself on eBay searching and came across cheap rebuilt injectors for around £90 posted from the states
Any one renewed injectors or uprated and at what cost?
Or even recon what I have ?

Thanks again

Have you heard from lee where his bite point is!
I wonder if this differs given the shorter arm/rod from the slave ?

I think I recall lee saying his was a m20 slave !
