Bought them on ebay for 77 euros.

Even if the repeaters aren't there on the wings, I would expect the connectors to be there either end of under the dash. If they are not, you can find them at the plug and socket beside the accesories socket at the back of the glovebox on RH drive cars, or I suppose, tucked up above the steering co...

The connections to the indicator side repeaters are the ones to go for. They are inside the car under the dash each side almost directly in line with their position outside. White 2 pin sockets, blue/red and brown one side, blue/black and brown the other. OK.. this helps :D But what if there are no...

I have to install wing indicators and oddly enough the least ugly and most economical way was to buy M3 style wing mirrors with LED indicators. Now I have to connect the whole thing. Has anyone done this, the mirrors need electricity for heating and movement (and I guess that is straight forward eno...

Hello mate .... you tried the danish version of the zone ?? (www.bmwe30.dk) May have some luck there .... there's a guy called Tommy who always has loads of stuff for sale and he is up in northern Jylland. Maybe he can lend you a set of wheels if he has them. As far as the fit goes isn't 80/60 a bi...

just the info I needed... but does this mean that 9" fits an E30 without making any changes? If you're going that wide, you will have to roll the arch flanges - particularly if you are lowered 40mm or more. Ok... what about 7.5-8 then? The car already has 9" all around without problems (but with sp...

Tom....... The offset required is dictated by the rim width on any specific car. Examples for E30's are: 6" wide should have 38mm offset 7" wide should have 24mm offset 8" wide should have 13mm offset 9" wide should have 0 offset Obviously, if you go for half inch increments on the width, the offse...

Hi... Turns out my car is totally illegal in Denmark, hence the sudden need to buy antoher set of wheels and "raise" the car up to a 40/40 drop (from 80/60 :lol: ) I really have to find a decent set of wheels quickly but it is really difficult to find out what fits and what doesn't! So - if any of y...

This is NOW MY WALLPAPER

How do you do this?

THAT IS ONE CLEAN CAR!!! Please post the dyno as well

I'm gonna make up a 327i badge but for the mo the 318iS badge pulls in the saxo crew

You're MEAN

NICE INTERIOR

Massively nice car

Like the steering wheel as well

I think I know what you want... which is the same as I want... Something that fits the car and with a mininum of fuss takes you on your route... http://i8.ebayimg.com/03/i/04/06/9a/ad_1_b.JPG Becker Traffic Pro... This will stop the music to give directions etc... I think this is the way to go...

Very nice car... funny how big the difference is between M-tech I and II... I think I is more old school and hardcore... but I do like both very much

This is turning out to be a very interesting thread 8) 192 hp is a very good increase, It would be brilliant to document the increase to BBTB and if you change the chip! In my case... I am only looking to get to about 190, I would be quite happy with that E30 M3-ish figure :wink: any more would make...

One of the best 318 I've seen!

I wish i had an extra set of baskets if I want to be in the stock police

MINE....

beieve it or not..... that lump would go in without any shell modification as glenn has proven with his e39 m5 lump in his e30..... I saw a 4 liter lump for sale, it was half the price of the 4.4! I have thought about since it is similar in weight and not that expensive... Should give some serious ...

Yes.. I agree... the best forum for help and enthusiasm...

BUT (there is always a but

) is it because of the car, the e30) or is it just the people... it just seems like these cars are really addictive

Well!

THERE IS ALWAYS A BIGGER FISH

Having said that... I have respect for many BMW's especially E30 M3, 318is and 320is, and 325!

I only have one princip... buy top of the line, otherwise you are always on the look out for a better car!

I was fortunate enough to get car with all the mods done and although there is a receipt with the history for a rolling road tune, there is no printout. I am gonna email my mate tomorrow who had all the work done and see if he ever got the power output verified. This will be interesting... I have s...

Have any of you guys done Dyno after tuning to verify gains? Preferably before and after? Or know of anyone who has had positive results?

What cam do you have?

It looks like it cost at least 20 times as much....

Yeah BBTB was Ãƒ”šÃ‚£50 for me but that was lucky. The Zone ones are Ãƒ”šÃ‚£120 (I think?) and probably the thing to do before the cam. If you can stretch to it go for the chip and BBTB and get a cam later, although as your head was recently rebuilt I'm not sure I would bother with a cam yet as the...

That is really cheap

This car looks good in action...

Have you tried drifting in it?

Hartge modifications cost lots of money for very little gain. Did you fit that manifold yourself or was it on the car already? You sure the engine is not a hartge one? Nope it was on the car - I seriously doubt that the engine has some modifications... I guess it would be bright though to do a dyno...

Its an Early Hartge, the give away is the oil filter housing has been spun 180 degrees so the filter is @ the front Brents Hartge engine has the same exact mainfold dude. That would make me one very happy :banana: It would be very cool... because then I will concentrate on Hartge modifications if p...

Exhaust wrap??? What is that?

PS, what is this manifold on the nice looking red engine?

Karan wrote:yeh its a 3.6 315bhp

the m5 i took it out of was very quick..... and sounded unreal

my sport sounds mean though

I can imagine it sounds mean with this manifold!!! You don't have any sound examples do you?

Damn - I have to find out

ure car is lhd right? that is prob a hartge manifold on ure tourer Yes it is LHD.... it does look similar to the Hartge one..
