E30 Zone

Watch some of the ones on Ebay to.
I bought a "Heavy Duty" one for my M3 which didn't last 5 minutes , ripped like a piece of paper

Spotted a very nice 320is on the way back from a shopping trip around the Ipswich area .
Dolphin grey on an F plate would of stopped for a chat but we went our seperate ways at the roundabout !
Does it belong to a zoner ?

Looks kinda cool in a weird sorta way !

I have a E36 325Td and had the same problem you could see the bubbles in the fuel line on mine to. It turned out to be the fuel return hose on no1 injector had a small hole in it that allowed air to be drawn in when the engine was turned off , therefore making it a pig to restart . Replaced the hose...

yes, i think i might go out tonight and get wasted.

I'll drink to that

It wasn't their cheopo cheapest , they did do 2 sorts The one i went for was the dearer Lemforder one ( still cheap at a tenner i know) which i was led to believe from another forum were pretty good , but we shall see in a fortnite or so eh LoL I did actually enquire about E46 ones which were only 1...

Sounds more like a damper top mount to me. Finally got around to having a look today (been on holiday work etc ) and you were right, the top mount was shot to bits . Got a replacement from GSF for around a tenner and its now sorted. Quieter than its been for ages :D Thanks everyone for all your adv...

did you check if the exhaust was close to the beam? close enough to hit/rub ? also check tightness of wheel bolts and maybe check if bearing is starting to wear ! Maybe also the diff ? really need to get it up on a ramp and check all possibilities mate :D Yes exhaust is close so close i cant really...

I've had a knocking noise on the n/s/r of my M3 for a while now which has also developed a cracking type noise to go with it . I had it mot'd last week , and thought that would locate the problem (But it didn't the car passed no probs) Obviously pleased , but wanted to find the cause ! While it was ...

You could probably get a set of repro caps off Ebay I have seen them on there before from far east sellers , they could maybe tied you over till the Originals turned up ?

Thats bad for a dealership , had a similar thing in a bodyshop the fella grabed hold of the underside of the rear arch and announced "I thought they would of been fibreglass"

Pulled in at my local Shell garage the other day to treat the M3 to some V Power fuel !
On paying the young guy says "Thats an E30 isn't it ?"
Impressed by his knowledge i simply replied "yes it is"
He then went on to spoil it all by saying "Shame its LHD though"

As the above really , Standard clutch would be better suited imo
One thing i would add is try German and Swedish they normally have a choice of OEM or good quality replacements at competitive prices

Look ok but not Great !
Sorry
Andy

Fly do some good quality E30 M3's , much better than the scalextric ones !
You can usually find them on Ebay around the 30 pound mark

Be easier to sell them on !
You should get your money back then some if you advertise them on Ebay as E30 M3 fitment !

Or my £100 quid offer still stands Lol

P.s That was tongue in cheek when i posted that earlier to anyone who may of taken it seiously

Yep no probs here !

You could always flog em to me for 100 quid

Car looks great !
Love the wheels and exhaust , but not feeling the lights i'm afraid , sorry !

cheers
Andy

Would like one for an M3 if anyone has one , not sure if they fitted on the battery side ( as in 325s) or the jack side ?
cheers
Andy

Not at present, can get one tomorrow. The normal sport seat bracket didn't look the right shape when i had a quick look ages ago. No they are not the same , but it doesn't take to much fabricating to make a new bracket to attach the fire ext holder to. You can see the ally bracket in the close up p...

I had one up for sale with RegTransfers , They don't actually buy it off you , unless it is something really desirable. They give you a price they think its worth, then bung their wedge on and advertise it ! They never managed to sell mine so i never found out the final part I think you'll find once...

German and Swedish or the stealers seem cheaper than the ones on Ebay most of the time !
Strange but true !
cheers
Andy

1988 M3 pretty much standard really

They are a great car to drive on country roads or long journeys continually putting a smile on your face , but they can be a pain in traffic and around town !
But saying that, thats not what they were built for
