E30 Zone

It could actually be my old car! It was a 316 i put an earlyb25 in, but it was granite grey(ssilver?) with a dolphin bonnet as i bumped it and it was a near match! Do you know the reg?

Forget that sorry, didnt see the arches mine was defo not an m3!

I had a four door interior like that once, assumed it had been a retrim

When are you doing the diff?

Today i have been mostly fitting an e30 temp sender, modifying the fan switch (oopsie!) and fixing the indicators! Still waiting for the prop :( Cheers What was up with the fan switch, do tell? :p I'll probably pop over tomorrow night with a couple of bits. Got the silicone elbow for the air intake...

Brand new ats classics in 10x15 for my capri actially!

No fan stat yet, going to fit one at a later date

Quick update yesterday was a bad day :( ! The fan i fitted decided to work for a few minutes, then seized up solid, so most of the afternoon and evening involved sourcing a replacement, and grafting it to fit into the mods id made previously! so the motor now has a larger fan (that works!) http://i3...

Think joel is considering it, its a 179 motronic ecu

first vid, ten scott mills points for spotting why its hunting profusely! http://youtu.be/Oh5aLjb8Nlo I'm guessing because you didn't have the idle control valve fitted, and there appears to be a leak in the exhaust. Ten points, yes exhaust manifold gaskets arent fitted yet, those and the prop, few...

2nd vid, running a tad better due to a minor change! http://youtu.be/VZlD7iX4t2g engine is very sweet, no knocks, rattles, exhaust manifoldis blowing, due to not having fitted the gaskets yet, but the exhaust will have to be stripped to fit the prop, so will fit them then! oil light goes off when cr...

second to follow!

by the way, the e30 in the exhaust pics is mine, its waiting until i finish this one to be sprayed!

right, short update as the two vids upload first the pics are of the new modded downpipes, excuse my scabby welding, the pipes were reasonably thin so took some welding! I have used the old Y piece out of the 318IS downpipe, used this to siamese the pipes, and of course, cut and shut the pipes to ce...

Bit of a crappy evening, took a long time to mod the studs on the exh manifold flanges, then had to re cut and shut the downpipes to centre the outlet, however exhaust will be done tomorrow for sure! Got the prop off and measured, gear linkage on, and have to say the box is beautiful, notchy and tig...

Looks a turd to me ;) lol

The nitrous system has three solenoids, a purge built in, its a rebranded nos kit

Front manifold is now modded, have a late finish at work tomorrow, but hope to make some headway weds

Cheers

not a shock, just a royal pain in the harris!

i remember him trying to justify a 318 engine over a 320 in the e36, and "porting" the plenum, what a tool, he should really stick to trolling the forums lol

Here is a pic of the design team http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01012/vegatrio_1012415a.gif I remember that. They took the chassis and running gear of an Impreza and put a mrk 2 golf body on top of it. Accept the bodywork chap went bonkers on it over night and made it look like a car o...

engine enamel

No, coil broke down and wouldnt fire, but i was injecting 150bhp of nitrous at the time!!

Engine seems to be ok, time will tell!

Yes mate, but in my capri the one in my avatar <<<<<<

dear lord, how much car snobbery in one thread?!

saw the above, wondered if it is anyone from here, bright red, looked like colour coded bumpers, but cant be sure, parked near the rwyb

was going to say hello, but by the time id messed with my car i think they had gone!

Guess you are a chequerfields man then lol

12 miles, selby, and theres nothing wrong with Cas

Nah, safe as houses, im a big believer, its very cheap power

Nope, nitrous isnt flammable, only talking 50bhp!

I put 200 through the capri!!

Just stick some nitrous in it, my b25 always loved it, and so will the next!!

Higher lift/ more aggressive cams wear quicker to, its always worth checking that its getting a good oil supply from the spray bar

Problem is that once the cam wears, the map becomes too rich, for obvious reasons!

Then, people play with the afm mixture settings and its never right again! I had to source an m40 afm with the antitamper in place once i swapped the cam and followers!

Its cam wear that knocks the power down mostly, cost my v8 capri 100bhp!-
