E30 Zone

Hi All

We are now in need of a 2 door E30. From a full road car to a race shell with a full multi-point cage fitted. Anything considered.

Money waiting for the right one, and beer waiting for a lead to one!!

HI All

To save me an hour round trip in the morning to get the part numbers off the car the return to pick up the bearing does any one have these to hand?

Diff from an E30 325i sport (med case) its the output bearings i need them for, ie the ones that hold the diff.

Andy

Havent seen these before, would be intrested in to see them fitted.

Maybe some pics will help to show your problem

Bingo sorted!! LHD one was ordered! 35411160611 was ordered and 35411160609 was sent.

Hi, I have an E30 with a M52 fitted. I am after the throttle cable for it. The part number i have been given is 35411160611. Or it should fit an 1992 E34 525i. The part number retuns a cable very short where as the one i am told i want is 1170mm approx. Can you get me a price for the correct cable p...

Cheers Dan. Yes the short one is what returned from the Wiki part number, i too dont understand how that can even reach the Throttle body!! Anyway i will go and see if they can come up with the right one, i did explain it should be approx 1170mm but they list no size/length. If anyone in the mean ti...

Maybe Wiki needs changing then if its incorrect. It leads you to think there is two cables.

Thanks jimbob, if thats what the part number fits then yes.

But is there two lengths??

Hi All

A little help needed. E30 M52 with M50 inlet and large throttle body fitted. Which cable do i need?

I have ordered one from BMW 35411160611. On the Wiki page it says there should be an option of two lengths but BMW say not on that part number.

Is this right?

Andy

Dave Kear by any chance?

Are your alloy ones the same style and shape? Were did you get them from?

As for getting them made in Carbon ABS Motorsport will be the guys for this.

Do/can you run them in PBMW Championships?

Any more info on these? Anyone?????

My upgrade from open to LSD made a massive differance, i dont do track days but its made the car smoother to drive, the engine is revving alot less then before and the speed is better, as in the gears last longer. When changing gear and letting go off the clutch, the biting point with the open diff...

Over the winter i will be looking to fit a full flat floor and diffuser to our E30, it already runs a large splitter and front section. To make full use of a diffuser it does really need the flat floor and the skirts to feed it. You might feel some diffrence on its own but not anything to write home...

So how do i get hold of this Gareth then, i couldnt find him in the menbers list?

And what diffs we're they Ajsigh? Medium? Small?

Does Gareth know if E34's swap over then?

After some reading it turns out you can fit the E34 C&P into the E30 Med casing, anyone tried or done this? and with what ratios?

bump on this

Still looking for a 4.1 Med case

Thanks for the comments. The new Snet is good, whos day is it? And what you out in?

Below are the ones from Live Socket that are not being made anymore.

I am looking for some hub mounted brake ducts. I have seen the metal ones Turner Motorsport do but would like some carbon ones idealy. I email Live Sockets (in the US) who did do some but they have stopped doing them for some reason.

Does anyone use them or know of any others out there?

Ive always used the M52 box on my cars because its newer, less likely to leak and is also a ZF box rather than Getrag

Am i right in saying you use the same E30 gearbox mounts for these?

Bob_S wrote:mine leaked all its oil out, it whined, 2nd was horrendous but it saw off 3 diffs

Thats good going!! What diffs were they?

Still looking at different gearbox choices at the mo.

Thanks for the feed back guys. I see alot of yours are road based cars, do we know of anyone using the boxes for Racing or Rallying? We've had one in the past and 2nd gear sync wasnt great, is that a common thing?

Andy

Yes we had problems am afraid, we got debris in the fuel tank some how, luckily the symptoms were spotted early and stopped £300 worth of pumps running dry! Sorry I never got chance to chat to some of you. I did chat to one of the lads with the E30 touring in the morning, not Zoners though.

Good good thats what i like to hear.....

Anyone running big power with these boxes in? Not that i intend to go past the 260bhp mark.

Make sure you do, a fellow Northlooper if I’m correct?

The Trackday has been full for some time now, people are more than welcome to a pax if I get time, but my main priority is to get the car setup for Brands the weekend after so apologies if I’m busy.

Hi all, In the next month or so I will be starting to convert are E30 325 I Sport in to an M52 plant. I've been reading around and believe some of you guys have fitted 318IS gearboxes, I know they fit straight in but my concern is are they up to the job? The car will be used only on track and will g...

I will also have a bonnet for definite

Sorry Dan i didnt see your post!!

I cannot recommend ABS enough these guys know the E30 product better than most. They have always looked after me and will always have my business.

If anyone has a good set of scales id be interested in the standard items weights???

I will be there shacking down our E30 before its race at Brands Hatch on the 12th.

I was there with the Black E30 325i Sport Race car (Podium Prep).

What a lovely collection of E30 M3's, i was like a kid in a candy store!!

Thanks for all the info guys, i will be looking into this more i think and give the lads at A-tech a call.
