E30 M30 conversion Help

Started my conversion, engine is now in after purchasing the mounts from lee.

Tried to fire up this evening, it started. Went to restart it and nothing.

Doesn't seem to have a spark or fuel.

Running M30 engine Loom and ECU.

Any input would be great.

Yeah, cheap and nasty wanky bit of shit. I bought old because they're easier to work on. Big mistake.

Fitting Coilovers Please Help

I am trying to fit coilovers on my BMW cab, Rears were no problem. The fronts are a different matter. How do I remove the front strut from the "holder" that strut sits in at the bottom. I've heard several things. No matter how hard we try it won't budge. Does it need to be cut & welded? Please help....

Re: Coilovers or springs, please help...

Looked in eBay springs & shocks approx £140. Is yours lowered 40/40? :)
