Re: M44 into E30 now we're stuck!
I had an emulator chip fitted to get rid of the EWS, tried to do it myself but it just wouldnt work, the chip turned out to be faulty so I posted it off to be fitted. Put it in the car it fired straight up. I would think you would want the later ECU (bosch silver label) I wouldn't have thought a 199...

You don't have to wear helmets at DWYB, but I always wear mine.

Re: DWYB Drift What You Bring
Yeah, there are 3 or 4 big squares of tarmac which are fenced off which you could easily drift a big circle (playpens). And there is an area which is called the kidney track which is about double the size of a playpen, it is roughly marked out to be a kidney shape with a few cones but you could drif...

Re: DWYB Drift What You Bring
Anti-drift squad, ha! My advice would be as rob0r says really, The good thing about pod DWYB is you can just turn up and literally 'drift what you brung'. Tyre van on site where you can change and even buy part (mostly) worns. I wouldn't worry about taking spare rims and stuff the first time you go ...

Re: 316i Touring - quick cheap easy M44 conversion
Nice job keeping the EWS, if I had the antenna and stuff I would have liked to have done that too. Yeah I'm on the original gearbox and diff, the acceleration is great and it pulls hard right to the top in 5th, and I track up and down the M5 to Exeter for work every day, so it is using some juice. W...

Re: 316i Touring - quick cheap easy M44 conversion
That is a good meet, it used to be in Hatch Beauchamp (I used to live there) if I am free that day I will come along but I am tied up a lot of weekends drifting, I used complete M44 management, just had an emulator chip fitted to get rid of the EWS. The M44 management is the best bit of the M44 so i...

Re: 316i Touring - quick cheap easy M44 conversion
Hi James, 3 weeks on the road for me and loving it. It's a great engine and perfect for the E30.
This may take a while to edit as I have to go between my phone and computer as they are both rather stubborn and un co-operative!

316i Touring - quick cheap easy M44 conversion
I haven't finished the guide yet, I will get some more pics and work on it next week :-) Here is my touring when I got it, it is a nice car but the 1.6 single cam was really letting it down. http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n238/hoagy5/IMG_570352463930584.jpg Here is my usual ride, but comp. drift...
