E30 Zone

So skip a few years (or 10) and stuff like this is happening... https://youtube.com/shorts/F8mmdm-jv3k?si=cTQ9FgAo0vU7SWcK Loads of other shorts on the channel recently, might be of interest. All about installing a speeduino ECO and custom dashboard (the one there will be re-printed it's prototyping...

Instrument cluster is part of the charging circuit! The reference voltage for the regulator is fed to the small er terminal on the alternator via the battery warning light and/or a bypass resistor connected across it. Belt should deflect about 1/2" under moderate pressure on its longest run. If you...

Thanks, paid.

Hi, after radiator holders for a 324td radiator please. 14 Bracket f.radiator 10MM 1 17111709333 $1.80 15 Bracket f.radiator 10MM 1 17111178449 $1.80 It's actually only one I need to replace as I'm going from a 320 rad to a 324 so just need the shortened bracket. But weirdly the real OEM picture sho...

Got some work done - the dreaded cam belt! Haven't started it up yet, so if you see any big mistakes be sure to let me know

It's been a while, but need to keep up the story so... There's a fair bit of waffle how 2019 went https://studio.youtube.com/video/3LYCGBr2pTI/edit In reality we didn't do the full season as we've just bought a house, and that's expensive... but we're determined to go all over the country to various...

Oh, I also finally got the Z3 short shift installed! Makes a pretty big difference as seen below

I haven't installed the other bushes that came from Cotswolds yet so it's all still a tad floppy.. But it's still better than it was.

A bit of a montage of our race weekend at Brands Hatch - this was fun!

They're all iS so more hassle than it's worth mate.

Bugger! Sorry - I'm sure we've had this same convo before!

Old age and memory loss y'see...

Enjoyed the read! It's all good experience :) Dude get one of your cars PBMW spec there's more competition there than you can shake a stick at! We have power to weight rules this year so people who have spent thousands on their engines are a bit pissed off, but as it happens I'm not one of them :D P...

Bit of a plug, but also bit of an appeal for feedback and ideas.

Hi miles .great to see you out again this year .just wondered what noise readings you been getting from the Ashley exhaust . I’m looking for a replacement for the rally car but when I spoke to Ashley they couldn’t tell me .thanks for your help . I want to say 104 up from 98....? 104 rings a bell fr...

Yeah maybe I did lift? Can't recall. The tyres were brand new, and I probably aced Redgate so took more speed. My setup is crap, I need it corner weighted or something. Anyone you can recommend near you maybe? I can see visibly the arch has more gap between the tyre on one side than the other at res...

Not too bad, the Ashley exhaust gave 10 more hp at the wheels which was a surprise! Caught me out down the craners as it's now more ballsy :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9KGdOEkwRM I'm 2 seconds quicker than last year. Putting that down to having analysed my footage, new tyres and of course the...

Bit of progress in the off season, not much though!

Need to get a shift on....

Hi,

I also need a 18301711969 downpipe gasket (non catalytic convertor).

I have a couple of other orders outstanding, I'll phone this and the others through today, being pay day

Cheers.

Hi, looking for the list please:

Gear selector rod joint 25 11 7 501 309
Dowel pin 23 41 1 466 134

Hi, it's 41128200462 and item 5 here:

https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showpa ... Id=51_1745

I've measured the diameter and it appears to be closest to the 144mm .

Thanks.

National. Been watching all my youtube vids in prep. First corner is a really late apex... I need to remember this!

Think I've taken it from the stereo, but then there's not much need for a stereo in my car

What's the purpose? If it's for a dashcam or something, perhaps there's no harm piggybacking off that? As long as you make the wiring neat and obvious for the next poor soul

Shiny! The ASTs look really good. Helper springs is something I need to look at one day. My Gaz golds are pretty old now too.

Yep, 14th April at Donny. I'm hoping we get to do the whole season again, but with a house move that's optimistic, but we'll see! About to go out and get the old exhaust off actually. I have an Ashley exhaust so hoping it's a bit lighter. :) https://www.msvracing.com/cars/race-series/production-bmw-...

Yet more rust work... never ends!!!! And there's plenty more to do elsewhere

Ah just PM'd you

Yeah they're a great addition. Keep them coming, especially some of the zone stories we've been tracking through the years

I did a bit of a write up of a rear beam swap, and went from drums to discs at the same time:

May be useful.

I have enough on my plate just trying to patch it up, Rich!

Speaking of which, will let the vid do the talking

Go with the standard Bosch ones, or get yours serviced properly by a Bosch dealer. It is a bit pricey, but they will flow test them and check them thoroughly (resistance, response etc). Best price for Bosch ones that come with new seals i found is €65 each, i am still undecided if i should get mine...

Holy crap, the Zone looks a bit different :D Holy car :D Welcome back. Great video, I love seeing E30s on the track. :thumb: Thanks Steve!

Holy crap, the Zone looks a bit different :D Here's a montage of our first full season last year 8) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KD_laUhmGK4 Oh, and some rust pics! I remember how you all love a good rusty pic :D http://cookracing.co.uk/images/stories/racing/2019/rust/49439915_2012706562140002_28...

Hey Rich! Long time not been here, car looks good!

Genuine question. Why do you possibly want that much compression on the rear suspension? My understanding was he wouldn't, but just in case it bottomed out it shows there's enough room? I'm only up the road from you handpaper if you want to look at a gaz setup. It's not going to be the best but has...
