LOL

Go keri!

(cross fingers they fit, dont rub on the ball joints, fit under dem splitties... etc etc)

We will know today (gulp)

Cool Pete - I hope your friend likes the B10 tomorrow! For what im asking it would have to be a TOTAL nail to not be worth that which it is a long way from being!!!

See you then...

MFree

which scrap yard? As whoever buys my B10 could benefit from that gearbox to do a manual conversion on it... rekon i could get the box for Ãƒ”šÃ‚£50.00...

PM me the location if you could?

Cheers

MFree

Trust Andy - I told him he could probably get 5-6 times that for the car! So Pete how do you know Andy then? Also why was there that comment earlier in this thread suggesting that another new member of the Zone was in fact you and should be banned? Who have you annoyed and why ??? (or "done a Jayson...

i must say i know a few have to be but im not a fan of shutting pure bred race cars away in museums forever when there are viable club series where the public can see these awesome machines doing there thing you know? When i was at Brands Hatch in 2004 making a film for my friends Le mans sportscar ...

So what other/better one are you after buying then? Would love to race that in Britcar!!! If Andy Rouse had continued with his son racing their Merc 190 DTM car i could have given them a good run for their money in your car!!! I was planning on trying to buy a drive in the Kuhmo series or the Britca...

Don't get me wrong Glenn Im not making a criticism of your car that isnt equally true of mine in the end, having decided to do my conversion a full 6 years ago, by now Ive just changed my view thats all - i think a supercharged S14 is a better option than a bigger engine conversion thats all... as i...

My project? im amazed you havent seen it, its the most viewed thread on the zone mate - its the "This true story will make you weep..." thread in the E30 chat section... when you say "our Dtm car" do i take you to mean that you have an ORIGINAL Group A DTM race car (starts to salivate) as that was t...

its in great condition - is it original paint or has it had paintwork done because 20 years is a long time for paintwork to stay in that condition isnt it? WHats the mileage? I have that same rear wing on my M3 project, its the DTM larger version, i think it only looks odd because its angle is too s...

why not procure (whats the smallest car?) a Yugo, and see if we can shoehorn the W16 VW Prototype engine into it (mid engined of course) I bet that would go like sh*t off a shovel! yes but where would you SIT? I must say I dont understand the logic of this one... I thought the S50 idea was quite sen...

i have a Q reg car, its a one-off mid engined prototype with an Alfa boxer engine, called a Pelland, it looks like a tiny Ferrari 246 GT, gorgeous looking thing, sadly ivelet it deteriorate a bit as it was on the road once, i need to sort it out badly, anyway i looked into this issue and you DEFINIT...

Goodwood is one we are looking at but also Snetterton and Mallory park. I was explaining to Kos that other than the high cost of the place because of its facilities (and the fact they are HUGELY in debt so need to make all the money they can!), rockingham is not a good option because it has SO many ...

whatever mate. Well I went with Kos's guy as my posting after yours stated so I guess its a turning down by implication of the fact that Im going to use someone else. I have alot of respect for guys like you and Ian who do all the work themselves on their cars, I wish i had to space and facilities t...

everyone slow down a bit... blimey! We only just suggested the idea and everyone is either throwing in their tuppence now or sharpening it and aiming at my eye!!! I was just thinking of ball park figures and the price i quoted for the track hire was 2004 and its not a question of you thinking it wil...

Demlotcrew - cheer up mate! Its Friday! Yeah the petrol would cost you that unless your car has become chitty chitty bang bang overnight... Well all i can say is that i hope you are in the minority, I think with a good range of trade stands, competitions, properly organised sessions with cars groupe...

Ive started to get a plan document together...

How you fixed today?

if you HAVE got LSD i advice you to sit down until the buzz starts to come on, then not to get into any mental 'loops' or it will seem like you are in one for the rest of time (in reality keep telling yourself it will wear off in 12 hours or so...) ;) (sorry couldnt resist that - saw the thread titl...

[sound of solid happy sleeping with the occasional snore-ette] suddenly "agh... kwuh... huh..oooOOOERAHHHHHHH!!!!!" "ARGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" what is it, what IS IT??? Why the screaming Rob??? (says my G/F) "Oh God, I was having this err um, this *Terrible* scary dream that my M3 h...

already there....

[yawn]

I agree... it was my aim for my MCARS Community and remember i still have ALL 100 contacts which contain a whole lotta LUSH E30 M3's in there too like Karims supercharged ones and Rudi's race replica etc Thats a good number to mail to initially and I can get a Website up and running and searchable f...

Having said to Kos that my gratitude for his immense dollup of help in turning my M3 project nightmare into a blissful final chapter would extend to being first to drive my car at a trackday as soon as we can arrange it after shaking the car down at Bruntingthorpe, it occurred to me that if the Zone...

No wuzzers Nick, I was hoping it was, didnt seem like a dig it just caught me at a bad moment... ;) The OMP cage is by far the cheapest, about Ãƒ”šÃ‚£350 all in for front and rear sections plus the door bars. but as i said before, this wont do much to brace the shell, i will need a weld in one for t...

I wouldnt have thought ben would have put the interior back in...cos ben sucks tell him that for me. what the hell's all that about? Im not going to tell him anything of the sort. Im sure if John has asked him to get on with the interior then thats what he's doing, as John's standards of work are s...

Thats the thing guys, when i saw the car before Jhn went away for a week the interior was bare, no dash nothing, so naturally there isnt gonna be a better time than this to do it... I guess it just depends whether a) I can sell my M535i to raise the cash for it and not hold the rebuild up any furthe...

Cheers guys! Im bowled over by the info! Yeah with the solid suspension and extra torque/BHP i think i will end up pulling my shell apart without one dont y'all? But then again, i cant see how a bolt in cage helps in that sense much, I can see how a bolt in cage will provide protection in a rollover...

Hi all you Zoners Does anyone know where i can pick up a full (or at least the back half) rollcage for my 3.2 E30 M3 project? Preferably Im after the one which doesnt require the dash to be carved up each side, but will consider anything... some of you must have fitted them and have experience and c...

That settles that then!

Im looking to buy a steering wheel for my E28 M535i, the one i want has an E36 momo boss on it as a bonus, now i know that the E30 and E34 (and hence E28 too as its the same as both of these) steering wheel splines/boss are the same fit as the MTEC I and II wheels fit both, but is the E36 the same a...

Hi all Having built a prototype set that im very happy with, Im trying to cost producing my Angel Eye headlights product for the E30 and E36 as the general view I have found is that alot of E30 owners in particular rushed to get the Angel Eye headlights when they first came out and virtually all who...

looks like its Flux or bust then! Im 33 and have 50% NCB so I should be alright. Insured value i rekon about 10 to 12k. I will call em tomorrow. Ian, can i use you as a reference when they say Ãƒ”šÃ‚´whassa then?Ãƒ”šÃ‚´ if so, iÃƒ”šÃ‚´d just say Ãƒ”šÃ‚´the only 3.2 engined E30 you have insuredÃƒ”šÃ‚...

You said "Adrian Flux" I said in my initial post can anyone like Ian (with the 3.2 engined E30) or anyone else with a seriously modded car recommend anyone and tell me who THEY use please? (other than Adrian Flux as they are the only firm I currently have on my list to try tomorrow) I know i wrote Ã...

Jhonno - great, thanks, but can I have a telephone number please? And what car do you insure with them so I know what to say when they say 'why did you come to us?' Also please don't say AON to me anyone as they too say they do not insure 3 or 5 series BMW's under their classic or modified car polic...

Yes, After nearly 5 years of what is now toe-raggery and round-the-houses-ness of near-legend surrounding my 3.2 S50 converted E30 M3 project, as it nears completion up at Zoom, here's me trying to find an insurer to insure the beast and (so don't suggest i use them please) Carole Nash for example w...

That there is no history - all the posts which people wanted to continue posting on (like mine on my M3 project which was acting as a project diary basically) cannot be continued, they lose ALL the existing contributions... Shame you can't import the MySQL tables into the new setup and use them as t...
