E30 Zone

Look at the diagrams on RealOEM

Rolled it out of the garage for the first time in nearly a year and got it through an MOT. Shame the weather has been utter shite.

Keep at it mate, it's worth it in end. My M52 project has been going nearly 2 1/2 years now, had to take a step away from it for 6 months due to work and a new house but I know it's always tucked away in the unit ready for a tinker here and there.

Lovely colour, the wheels suit it perfectly

Nice little project you got here. Is that a 'warrior' jack? Any good?

Say what. If you're sure the block has never been subject to overheating then give it a try without the timeserts surely?

Can't believe people are questioning why Dave spent what he did, go read his thread for what a proper conversion (not just the engine..) is all about.

I think I read somewhere that as long as it's a fixed based the seat is ok. You'll need the washer jets mounting to the wiper arms if you have a fibreglass bonnet without the holes for them.

Can you not try a different browser, and set it to desktop mode or something like that?

Good work!

Do a search I think there's a thread from a while ago about the differences but I'm sure someone on here with first hand experience of using them both in an E30 is that the normal rack is dangerously light steering.

Been a while now but I think the E30 temp sensor is M14 but needs to be M12 for the head.

Assuming that not only are the keys locked in the boot, but the entire car is also locked.

If you find the footwells a bit slippy, skateboard tape helps!

Ah cool, I was in my company car which unfortunately isn't an E30.
I live near Poole Grammar School, drop me a PM next time you're about, got my track car's MOT week after next so hopefully that'll be another E30 back on the road round here!

Good work on the door cards

saw an almost identical car yesterday on the a338 near Salisbury unless that was you?

Skip to 3:15 for onboard footage, great driving!

That sounds fantastic!

Yokohama AD08 or Federal 595rsr are loosely in the same category as Tokyo r888 but quite a bit cheaper.

Mtec brakes do a 312mm 4 stud disc, centre bore needs opening by 1mm but could the disc diameter be turned down to the correct size?

I always wondered why American EBay listed import tax as £0, I guess its down to the discrepancy of the seller if they can be arsed to pay customs charges. Ive never bought from someone who has, hah!

Euro car parts stock the 6 series mounts for about 30 quid. If Pelican use USPS for postage then you'll get stung by parcelforce for an £8 handling fee and VAT if not already paid for by Pelican.

I'm fairly certain DanThe sells some adapters so you can run 540i rear calipers. The problem with that is getting a pair of e34 540i rear calipers, otherwise a good upgrade. Yes I think Dan does the adaptors too. A caliper can also be used from an e32 750 and an e34 m5 3.6, there could be more but ...

Yeh I'll join you mate if you're heading along the A31 near Wimborne?

Finished the brake upgrade, then got it taxed!

Good work on the fast turn around mate!

Best is E30 M3 due to the larger internal bore compared to an M20 exhaust.

Any convoys on the Sunday going from Devon or Dorset?

Bums E30s, sounds a bit harsh!

I was told today of a 318iS that was sold locally, one owner from new on 340k !

Steering linkage would be beneficial. If you want to use that gearbox then you'll need to source another diff as the E34 one wont fit and your original E30 one won't suit the gear ratios.

Finished fitting my big brake kits, upgraded to the 750 master cylinder and installed wheel studs. Tomorrow, bleed brakes, refit wheels in the hope they clear the brakes then the possibility of tax and insurance on Monday!

Doubt it works, but worth a shot! Works fine on my One X+
