E30 Zone

Use a e36 rear part of prop then have a custom from there onwards, I had one done and it cost £280 but was spot on!

I have used it and it works great!

What sort of setup is this then, stock bottem end what was done to the motor? any pics of the manifolds?

I would be interested to see more details!!

I sure can, what suspension setup did you go for? I am trying to figure what springs I need for the front poundage wise!

I had to make a complete custom exhaust, the manifolds were the hardest part! My exhaust is fairly loud as I have no cat's just two centre silencers and then a backbox but I am going to change the backbox to something that will make it a little better! I also am using an x pipe to increase backpresu...

it really is way to low geared, I can do about 120 flat out in 6th but I want more and cruising is quite high up in the revs I think I am going to go for the 3.15 ratio! 3.64 would be perfect for just drifting but other than that I wouldn't bother.

Hi all, I have a m60 6 speed and wondered what the best ratio is for track/drift/fast road driving. I currently have a 3.64 but it's way to low geared I was thinking a 3.15 or 2.97 but wondered what people had?

I had a completely custom one made at bailey morris for £350 ish

no when the ignition is on the windows sometimes work and sometimes don't.

with the windows, both the windows stop working from both switches, and regards to the heater it's just the blower we are not getting volts to fuse 20 in the engine bay.

Hi there

After a bit of help, I have a few issues with my e30 the windows are intermitant working sometimes work and sometimes don't any ideas?

Also the fan for the heater has stopped working, where should I check what could be wrong?

How much for a Vems ecu and map for a m60b40?

would also be interested in the b40 mod map

Hi there just finnishing my m60 swap and on the test drives my mileage doesnt seem to go up on the clock so I am guessing I am missing a wire somewhere? Also what wire do I need to put in for the inspection light reset to work?

Cheers Phil

Hi there, built a e30 v8 but the suspension is shocking, I have fully polybushed the whole car but it bounces all over the place. Currently I have some custom made coilovers and and then lowering springs and shocks on the rear (all done by the previous owner) Whats the best route for handling and tr...

I will check but i thought it was the green, it's the one with only one pin.

guys you need the green one from a e30 for it to work.

Hi there, what throttle cable do people use? also on the m60 how does it work because it has 2 throttle bodies like one and then the main one how does that work?

Cheers Phil

I used the x5 manifolds, cut the outta case off the manifolds then they actually break apart then from there I have modified them to clear the steering etc. I will take a few photos once it's all done, the passenger side litterly bolts on and just needs the flange angle changed slightly.

what did you have to do to get the steering linkage side x5 manifold fit? The passenger side litterly bolts straight on.

I did wonder that also!

thats good to hear, could you find any other information out?

Cheers Phil

Hi there, Doing an m60 conversion on a rhd e30, can x5 v8 manifolds be used with minor modification?

Cheers Phil

Ill buy the gearbox depending how much you are after? PM me price for gearbox flywheel and clutch!

Sent you a pm back, why wouldn't you use grooves?

Cheers phil

Brilliant! Be sure to advise me best on the brake pads? also is it worth having groved discs?

Hi there, I am building a e30 v8, Can you give me a price as the following, 280mm kit, groved discs red stuff (this the best for track?) braided lines 298mm kit groved discs red stuff (this the best for track?) braided lines 300mm kit groved discs red stuff (this the best for track?) braided lines S...

What strut brace have you used there?

Cheers for the replys, it looks like i am going to be using E34 540I mounts.

Hi there, I mounted the engine in the car today and found that the e30 mounts were to small and the engine was hitting on the subframe but only by a tiny bit. What other options do I have?

Cheers Phil

I completed that and got the engine in the car, what rubber mounts are you using? I tried e30 ones but they were hitting on the subframe well the sump was so a little stumped the 540's seemed to raise it so it wouldn't do that.

Hi there I am getting to the part in my build where I am going to require a rad what is best to use in the e30? I have read about using an e36 m3 one but want to make sure it will be suffiant at cooling the m60 lump!

Well I was going to order a TTV one but they have a 3-6 week lead time. Any other suggestions?

what you mean cut the orginal bracket so you can still use them? I have the ebay arms and they fit but you would need to chop the arm off the old mount and make it fit with 2 insted of 3 bolts, I just wondered if there was another way around this.
