E30 Zone

My pal has a lsd that has a bearing wine coming off load . Is this common .?
Also does anyone have contact details for Gareth ? To rebuild/fix problem .

Thanks [/list]

well ive seen a few cracked subframes on non abused e30's .

I use my local Car panel and paint shop . £10.20 for a 500ml 2k can very good match made up im the shop ,but you can only have it for a few days then its buggered .can get cellulose for same price
500ml upol cans i pay £3.80 an aerosol .

Thanks , I found AKG's ones on there site but there also in america .
Would i get stung with any import tax on them do you think?

Maybe attempt to make my own using cardboard templates.

Im sure there was someone on here selling some at one point , maybe DanThe :/

Where or who sells front subframe reinforcement plates.
was thinking of making my own not sure .
what size plate is used ? 3mm?

Anyone have ideas ? Is there a wire i can do the same for the rear doors?

Thanks

I tryed the green and violet wire the ground again today with the c/l box unplugged and the boot opened and now functions how it should .
But the rear doors still dont lock on the key/central locking .

Nout wrong with a hydro

100mph entry on the wand ...

Anybody ? .

I found the green/violet wire on the c/l unit in the foot well and ground it using some wire but still no boot unlocked :/ .

I have failed to mention there is an alarm fitted to the car . Clifford 650 . Pressing the fob to unlock is the same as the key .

Thanks

Ah thankyou very much sir .

Does anyone have any ideas on fixing the whole problem and getting it all working as it should be . ?

Thanks

Errm ive not heard of that . Is that just to lock the door or to reset it ? :/

Me im going standard e36 hubs with modified knuckles , much better setup if you ask me , with lots of other un mentiond mods to suit

Ok so in my Tourer the drivers actuator failed , to which i disconected for a few days . Now at first all locking resumed fine apart from the drivers door of course . Then ready to ho to an mot the boot nor petrol cap unlocked !!! I managed to open the petrol cap by pushing the pin back in . Now ive...

oh sheet man ! id be temted to just buy another engine from a reliable source rather than take more room on the drive if you dont have the space .

Or whip the head off and check for damage ? new chain and tensioner new cams n crack on ?

Dont give up .

A dash isnt going to make a difference on weight . Only more on making insurance void due to sharp objects . Just like no door cards as someone i know discovered . As for the previous comment i just see about get a sierra . Try finding one . . I have an e30 for drifting but yet i have a touring whic...

Sod the wheels ! Whos wearing them shoes !! :p

Go Hard Or Go Home !!

Who cares if its a rusty shitter or not ! Lets face it you wouldnt want a rusty fooked turd being pushed to its limits on a track falling apart now would you !

Atlest the lads skidding on a track ;) keep on it lad practice practice .

Looks horrid if you as me

Theres only two types of manifold , standard m50 and the cast alpina one .
Yours appears to be painted to me with a vanos tb .

Presume its a 2.8

Your near clacton arnt you?

P*ssed! . Not been in long either

.

Im sure youve been tinkering today but id say what dan said , go back to basics check ,check ,check .

Any Missfire ?

i used an m40 hose that i got from the scrappy , and trimmed the top stub .

Danthe has silicone hoses .

Me , i would use the e36 box with a lightened m20 fly ,starter ,clutch .
There are other ways of doing it tho . Ie m42 box ect

Pentons is an awesome colour ! especially in the flesh .

sorry if this should be somwhere else but as this is the only e36 chat heres a link .

like said above your car will probably be ews3 . better off with m52b28! and you will have ews issues if you dont know what your doing to cut and shut them , its not as simple as putting an m52 with ews into an e30 . I do know someone that can offer his services to correct this for you depending on ...

a cheap m52 conversion , with half decent suspension , better rack , lock mods / hub mods . and a WELDED DIFF !!!

everything depends on the budget , that is why my drift e30 is still on the drive in bits as i seem to have champagne taste and lemonade money hahaha

E36 front half of the prop with E30 centre bearing will do the trick ;)

There was a good guide stickyed but i believe its got lost in the process of going over the the wiki guide .

e28 M5 Mounts ..

But you need two left ones iirc

i bought the gauges first as it goes to do valve clearances as i have no idea were mine dissapeared to

.

snap just bought some myself ,some new feeler gauges for £2.38 and a set of 3 wiper blades for like £9
Ebay does have its uses over motor factors somtimes , only if you dont mind waiting for goods :/

BPR6ES are £1.22 each on ebay , =£7.32 , little cheaper than £15

Thanks . I maybe in touch soon for a chip as its slow as fook ! Too used to m50 power lol .

All sorted . Was the crank sensor .
And the engine came out of a pals that he converted to 2.5 ;)

Thanks guys .

100% buddy . Even tried another maf . .

Most of the time it will only rev to like 2k with heavy misfire .
Im out of all ideas apart from crank sensor really .

Thanks
