ICV doesn't buzz no. I'll use the trouble shooting link. Thanks guys

Hey guys, I have a mate who's 88 320i won't start, it's cranking but there is no fuel and no spark. I read on here that the crank sensor gives that symptom so I got one for it. Fitted it and no difference. So I checked the pump it's working when you give it power but the wiring doesn't show 12v wen ...

If it has fuel at the rail it might not be enough pressure? Spark isn't your issue they are either workin or not, pull the rocker cover just feel the chain if ya can pull it up off the guide or gear pulley its bad if not I wouldn't go to too much further down the timin route not yet anyway... So is ...

What kind of BMW is it? Year and model? Cam synchronisation fault occurs when the timing is out? Carry out a compression check? Full throttle with the fuel pump fuse pulled out... Crank for 10secs... Also sounds maybe lik it could be flooded if when ya cleared da faults and they didn't return... Hop...

Those figures are fine your car from the sound of it is in good health.
They will never all be the same. Drive it and enjoy it!!

Top man thank you, well I'll go for whatever setup that leaves me run with the M3evo rear brakes...

Either z3 or compact arms... Guess I'll be searching for a while!!

Thanks for the info, so I know the front suspension and brakes will swap over what your saying is only the evo rear axle setup will swap over? Correct? Just to confirm before i go out and get it. Thanks again!

It's a soft top, plus if I like e36's I wouldn't be on dis site ha ha it's got to be e30 for me I'm afraid! They don't use trailing arms? What do they use?

Can E36 M3 trailing arms be used on an E30? If not then why? are e36 compact trailing arms a good substitute for upgrade on rear disc set up if I can't use the m3 ones? If I'm goin to swap over the suspension from the M3 then will I keep the stock shocks and springs or bilstein shocks and decent upr...

Harry thanks for the info i'll look into it and get a definite answer, if i could keep the rear setup more or less mainly E30 i will because if or when it breaks somethin I'll be able to swap E30 bits into it to get it back runnin rather than modifying everytime etc. was lookin at BTB Exhaust manifo...

jhonno ya it seems i need a large case with 8 bolt rear cover and it will transfer over, cheers for da info.

Kos cheers for finding them i'm still trying to figure out the forums to find da different builds, i'm getting there slowly!

thanks again to all!

can i not just swap internals and keep the E30 rear cover?
have an LSD in the 325 already its a bit soft tho...

sorry about the above comment was extremely drunk wen i posted it? its an air leak, from a breather hose or manifold rubber gasket etc. i'm nearly certain its an air leak! best of luck!

disconnect the cable on the bar side, try it again and if the fault occurs you can rule out the cable, looks like the throttle bar is sticking, have a gawk inside the throttle boddies if you see any sign of a black stain (carbon) clean it off. if not make sure the manifold that its bolted to or onto...

thanks guys thanks oh my god the response is very informing, i thought for sure i would be left with one or two replies. @kos: yes i'm goin to try 5 stud merely because i've bought an M3 Evo for the engine 'box and diff, was told by a very good bmw entuiast that i work with out the conversion and he...

nice advice harry what i mean is the centre hole of the wheel i have spare is smaller in diameter to the centre hole of the evo alloy wheel, can't think of da name of them they are twin 5 spoke style wheels generally found on the m3 evo... i'm just thinkin it would be a cracking car if i could get w...

yeah i'm goin to use 5 stud setup e36 compact trailing arms etc. What i was thinking of doin was offering up a 16'' wheel i have from an e46 i think, see if it'll rotate, it wont sit on the hub flange as the evo one is much larger. if i don't use these brakes i'll have to go find 285mm big brake kit...

hey guys, i've been lookin through here a couple of 1000 times loadsa guys talkin bout max tire size and et25 this with 16x9 that, i'm going puttin M3 evo front shocks and brakes on my E30 and i was just wonderin has anyone on here put 16's on them or is 17 the min? i've bmw bbs style 15x7's on it n...
