Re: M20 RADIATOR UPGRADES
was going to do this myself...put an elec fan on just to free up the engine a bit. I know someone who had an e36 m3 and even that revved up better without the viscous. That tip about the e34 aircon fan is handy...i'll look into getting one.

Some of you may be interested in this - BMW M'sport History

Note - E30 M3 is no1, pretty obviously in my opinion to be honest... Have a look, some good info there! Enjoy! Chris http://ww...

Re: smell of fuel in the car
mine does it but its down to me taking the tank off that sits above the rear right-hand wheel. The mountings broke and it dropped down onto the tyre, which rubbed through the plastic. Took it off and there is a bit of a smell on hot days/hard cornering when the tank's pretty full.

Am thinking of throwing millers stuff in if they do the right grade, but tbh, im not sure what grade and how much goes in. Could i be enlightened? cheers! :) edit: been a mong an...

Re: After a quick answer about strut swap...
yea, and the BK's have a seperate adjuster platform, so you dont change the spring /damper travel when changing ride height. Had XYZ Racing coilovers on my previous car and its a much better system. Whats wrong with Rimstock's wheels too...i think they are second only to Compomotive/Speedline tbh, w...

After a quick answer about strut swap...
Hey Gents, I've got an E30 325i sport (tech2) and i'm looking for the easiest way to get some 5stud hubs onto the front, allowing me to run bigger brakes and easier suspension mods. So...is it possible to get e36 hubs on it, and if so, what mods are needed. If it cant be done...then fair enough, i'l...
