E30 Zone

Won the best modified car at the M3ntal casino show last summer.

Original M3 brakes for comparison

Fitted some porsche brembo 4 pots to match the fronts. 20181031_110229.jpg To fit 294mm e46 328i discs on to a M3 E30 the Adapter 294-6B is the right one. https://www.300mm.de/product_info.php?products_id=183 The 294x19mm rear discs for M3 E30 trailing arms come from e46 328i with part number BMW 34...

Bought some Hartge splits for the M3

Donation made.
Thanks for continuing to run the zone.

I may be up for this depending on work

I have just been putting petrol in and driving it lately, so not much to report, I recently treated it to a new rear M3 badge. The old ones, particularly the 'M' were starting to look their age. http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm16/kwaterhouse/DSC_1263_zpsyxcotnli.jpg There are several guides onl...

I haven't done an update for a while, my 'winter project' this year has been upgrading the front brakes, I had the Wilwood bias pedal box with e46 M3 front brakes described in previous posts. http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm16/kwaterhouse/DSC_1234_zpszbt3c7ik.jpg I always felt the brakes could ...

There is a meet organised on facebook at Kingsbury water park on the 30th of April.

Gaydon and Santa pod are the main shows the e30 zone attends, a lot of the smaller meets seem to be arranged on the facebook e30 zone page

Thanks Dan :thumb: I don't know anything about pedal boxes, can you match the cylinder sizes to give a decent pedal for a road car? I ran 5/8 wilwood masters on my pedal box with a 6.25 to 1 pedal ratio. I now believe i had a faulty master cylinder on my fronts as i could get 900 to 1500 psi on the...

I dont think there is one soon, are you on facebook ? a lot of the meets are on the e30 zone there.
You could always organise one yourself, personally i wont be bringing mine out till the salt goes though.

I think Zoe Mayling Dykes is organising the e30 zone stand on the facebook e30 zone

I am running a wilwood bias pedal box, i have just added a remote servo on the fronts, it stops fine with the current e46 m3 brake setup but i am upgrading to 840 Brembos .

The ecp part numbers are on my thread;

Looking forward to this one, plenty of grinder action ahead! Is that an ekp module? I still have your e60 pumps if you need them to graft in to the tank.

my rear suspension is e30 M3, with the 9" et20 wheels and 245 30 17 tyres there is minimal clearance to the m3 flared rear wings. Yes they are quite big. If I get wider body kit what I have orderd and not normal what I got it wouldn't be a problem sinde I would need big spacers. But with this kit I ...

I have bbs style 5 17" et20 on my E30 m3 with e46 M3 325mm front brakes.
I had to grind the calipers a bit to get clearance.
The Brembos are very wide, I would guess you might need a 30mm spacer.

This is going to be epic, that F10 M5 I had a little 'traffic light grand prix' with on the way to Gaydon last year is the only car I have come across that put up a decent fight against the V10 M3, losing 3/4 of a ton and using a dct box will be worth the effort

Has anyone fitted e46/36 M3 rear brakes to an e30 M3 ?
I believe the handbrake shoes / drum are a different size and I presume an adaptor bracket would be required ?

Top work!

It depends on the kit, I know the M3 indicators are a different size to a normal e30.

I dont know if they are the same but these are the ones I used on my M3, copy and paste from my thread in members cars. http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=261908&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=50 The wheel bearings were changed ( SKF ) and the driveshaft c.v's were clean...

A brilliant resto thread, i'm glad you are enjoying the car after all that hard work

I paid £80 for my rear beam, swing arms and brake backing plates

have you got it running and mot'd yet

Looking forward to this one

If there are any spaces left over I may be able to come down in the M3

I have an ATP 55L tank in my car, I can't comment on the original e30 pump but I have 2 e60 m5 pumps mounted in the 'swirl pot' inside the tank. I have never suffered fuel starvation but the pumps are mounted as low as possible and will pump the tank almost dry.

No I didn't take it up the hill

There is a club stand, it has been organised on facebook, I am going if it stops raining

Have you tried these? Might be worth asking if they do a convertible one

Amazing attention to detail. I look forward to updates.

Top work, I saw the interior at the pod, it's stunning a˜€
