E30 Zone

the crossovers are matched to the mids by the manufacture to get the best out of the speakers, why not install them behind the centre console, as for amps, if you are happy with the sound and output from the head unit then leave alone.

Sweep on here has got a few e28 bits, top bloke bought some bits off him a couple of years ago ebay link http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-E28-E12-STEEL-WHEELS-/281192664697?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4178638e79 Good luck with the rear bumper......hard to find, at a guess you need the...

Huge thanks for the quick response maggspower, big help. :D Your right about them coming in headset, just ordered one from carparts4less, spoke to the very helpfull Ross at Cotswold and the cam cover gasket, 4x1/2 moon seals and camshaft seal would have cost £46, makes more sense to order the kit as...

Hi, trying to find the part number for the 4 half moon seals on the m20 head, there are 2 at the front and 2 at the back, had a look on realoem and it does not show them, it shows the cut outs on the head but no part attached on the diagram, same on shop.bmw-classic.de and the parts bloke at my loca...

depends where you are mounting the amp, ground as near to the amp as you can,if no suitable grounding point near amp, drill hole in floor, put nut/washer and bolt through, treat hole with rust preventer. Carefully prise the sill covers off and pull back carpet, run power cables down one side and spe...

Hi, just bought a e28 520i manual 1987 thats been stored in a garage since 2006 due to its previous elderly 2nd owners health problems. Its in excellent condition still on its trx wheels, but with the usual rotten rear bumper quarter on drivers side. I am going to use it as my daily driver until I h...

you can fit mdf speaker rings if your magnets are too deep, leave the grills off or cut them so the speaker grill sticks through the kick panel. You can buy speaker builds that fit to the door cards, all depends on budget and aim.

I used to compete in spl 20 years ago, recorded 140.5db. Im building a powerful system but going for sound quality as opposed to all out volume, been collecting audio equipment for a couple of years, got a nice collection of vibe speakers and amps, my aim is to make it look oem and hide all the good...

you can buy a 325i battery relocation kit on here, someone usually has one for sale. Yes connect to the alternator. Does your car have a rear centre arm rest in the rear seat? if so behind this on the firewall you will find a panel spot welded that would have been removed if your car had a ski optio...

there are grommets, or you can drill through and install a grommet, see you want to put a sub in the boot, you could put a 325i wiring loom so you can have a battery in the boot for your sub amp and run a power lead from that battery back to the head unit on the opposite side to your low input lead/...

using the power feed from the screw blocks find which is permanent, earth and switched (ignition) and get a standard connector lead, chop the the end off and connect into screw blocks, you can then join the bullet connectors which are speakers with some other bullet connectors using a crimping tool ...

have a look at this - http://www.e30zone.net/e30zonewiki/index.php/E30_ICE If you want to run a high power head unit (4x50w) then it would be a good idea to run a power cable direct from the battery, put a suitable fuse near to the battery as well as one before the head unit, use cabling that will h...

Thats looks like it BSS325i !!, hope mine will come up that bright when its had a good clean! was it a special order? it was in a lazure blue 318is that's got more holes a colander! thank you very much.

Daimlerman - very similar, except the lines are nt broken and are grey,red and a faint blue. waiting for facebook group to accept my request to join, pm me an email address and I will send you a photo if you like.

already looked through wiki gooner1, but thanks for reply :D Daimlerman - I wondered if was a m3 interior, the rear seats have head restraints but no centre bolster, the front seats have a fabric label on the side squibs saying m-technic, I will take a picture now and put it onto the zone facebook p...

after further research using the vin number its coming up on realoem its code is 310? but I can not find any more information on the web, I had always thought the 318is came with the tartan pattern cloth or leather, would I be right in guessing this was special order?, would be interested in knowing...

keep it below 4000 rpm for 1000 miles, then oil change, valves should n't need checking but if you have the time, why not?

you will find info on building a 2.7 on the e30 wiki, many options and ways of doing it. But it wont be the easiest to convert. If you have a 323i then could you buy a cheap late 320i and convert that?

can anyone tell me what the style for the code 310 ? is they are sports seats out of a 1990 318is in lazure blue, never seen them before. They are grey/black/red. Many thanks.

You might find the manual rack ok with the m10 but with the m52 you might be surprised how much harder it is at parking speeds, my 325i chromie has a manual rack and though I prefer the feel of the manual rack at speed, sometimes I wish it had pas! I've often wondered if a electric pump could be fit...

new rubber hose, spare calliper, wd40 type stuff, c-clamp to work the piston back in, brake bleed kit, brake spanner. If your having to travel distance, why not get a refurb calliper and put that on, should n't be more than £60, job done. You could get a second-hand calliper of someone on here and c...

you need to run your tweeter's through a cross-over or have your tweeter's have a resister in the speaker line?, usually there is wiring for the optional fit tweeters taped off on the door behind the cover.

Got these in the front of mine, great sound, easy fit, bargain!

Goodness me! I did not think we were allowed to post pure porn on here!.
Very, very cool.

It is a shame that this thread has broken down to people trying to show others how clever they are, I asked a question that if true (as I believe) has huge implications and I believe that I should share information as important as this as a personal duty to all others. If anyone wants to do their ow...

What is your authority for the proposition that you don't own your car, the government does? Is it something that has a rational basis, or did you dream it on a magic mushroom trip? Are you a Russian asylum seeker? Sometimes it is better to be thought of as an idiot, than to open your mouth and con...

@ Zaust, Quote "I missed out if you are on the road illegelly, then they have every right to take it and charge for it's relase or crush it. So they can't just take it off you for no reason." No mate the car is fully "legal" I have been driving for 20 years with never so much as a parking ticket, al...

[quote="cecotto479"]Right. If you own the car, you own the car. The end. The name on the registration document is only an administrative contact. The "registered keeper". If you can read, you should be able to spot something on the V5c to the effect that, " the registered keeper is not necessarily t...

Kieran, why do you and some other people on here try to use the zone as a place for bullying and to ridicule other zoners? Is there something missing in your life or are you trying to make yourself look big? Your argument centers on whether or not I own a M reg e30. Why is that so difficult to accep...

Put some pics up of the so called M plate touring before anyone can give you some solid advice. It smells of BS :bla: I am fed up of you calling me a liar, I dont give a stuff if you believe me or not, would a picture prove that I own the car or would you like me to send you a copy of my log book? ...

No, I was not told this as an April fool joke.

It has always been the case that the v5 only means you are the registered keeper. If you paid for the car then yes it is yours, but in court you would need other proof. Balls is it not. So yes the goverment can seize your car and get away with it. Hi Zaust, Sorry, I am confused, if I am the owner t...

I have come across information that apparently I do not legally own any of my cars as I by signing the registration document handed over the legal right to my property to the British government and made myself the keeper only. I have been informed that as long as I adhere to the conditions of the co...

Picked up some wheels Alex had for sale last night, very honest seller, would definatley recommend him to other zoners, easy transaction, genuine decent bloke.
Keep up the good work with your e30 Alex, it's looking really good!
