Do you seriously think slopping some vile paint over a 22+ year old car will 'bring it up to date' ? Are you from birmingham? Hey lay off the Brummies Dan. If you want an up to date colour go buy an up to date motor, why ruin a classic? I wouldn't even dream of putting a Renault colour on A Bavaria...

Different to the E36 but Same as the E39 though

Very easily if you tighten the rocker nut too much like a few people I know have in the past, especially the one who's rocker then snapped at 130mph :mad: If you tightened it that much, the engine is going to run like shite and produce almost no power, let alone enough to do 130. Fully tightened th...

Some people think they need tightening to the max though lol

As well as replacing all your bushes, don't forget to check the steering rack for play at the ball socket on the control arm .... Undo & slide the the steering rack boots towards the wheel to reveal the ball joint and make sure it is tight, these are easy to replace on the E30 and you would be supri...

How can you f*ck up an engine by getting the valve clearances wrong? Is this the same experience that told you that blue smoke on start up was head gasket? :roll: http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=171983 Set them too tight and it'll run rough. Set them too loose and it'...

Yep you need the E30 manual gather your tourer is like mine one of the last of the best.

I'd go for that one too, made the mistake of selling my one with my old E30 :cry: . Now got the newer dark ...

Just go back and buy the front half tomorrow then weld it back together lol

1 thing being in the top half, someone actually buying parts is a different kettle of fish though Magpie. I tried E-bay too mags and got a 3 day ban for saying in my lisintgs other parts available, despite listing 15 items at a time & getting charged for them when they didn't sell

Yep they're the same, only difference is the distributor is in the block on pre-facelift.

Yep pics prices and location were all present, from the message i got in my inbox looks like I have been removed for being a dealer but im not

Confused here, Is the parts for sale forum not for E30 Enthusiasts to offer for sale parts to fellow E30 Enthusiasts?????? If this is the case as I had been led to believe why has my listing of parts been removed along with a message regarding trader status? I am not a business and do not portray my...

Looking at the Calibre Enzo look alike it's too late for that lol

also just so you know rob usernames on the other forum space cadet and chris h are both freinds of steve Wonder if they will remain friends of his when the paint starts peeling off their cars as it will with prep work like that. Dang shame they locked it before I got on there Rob cause I would have...

Have found the little Runt on a Vauxhall forum. PQ9 Have been in touch with the Administrators there, and after a discussion between them they have agreed to let me post my part of this story there, have to say a big thank you to them for allowing this, it could be potentially damaging to their sit...
