E30 Zone

Hi,

Sounds good, pm sent.

All,

I’m in need of a Facelift Body Loom , ideally from a touring.

Please let me know.

Thanks

Hello,

Is the body loom available ?

Thanks

True but also looking for a daily that I can put a few miles on without worrying too much.

Evening All, What do you reckon, do you think now is the right time to buy a tidy e36 m3 before prices rocket? If so which one? I quite fancy a 3.0 one but the prices seem to have really picked up, I'm well aware that they won't match e30 m3's however could well be a good investment. All opinions we...

Hi All,

Just wondering , did any tourings have black carpets fitted? Or is dyeing the only option?

Cheers

Would have thought Theo's Hartge M3 is probably one of the rarest.

Defo Bk's, the e36 motorsport reps, anything 3 spoke, tsw venoms although i've never seen them on an e30 before are hateful wheels. what's wrong with bbs reps aslong as they don't have the bbs badge, they look fine don't they? I have 18inch BBS style 5's on my m3, they actually came on the car, I p...

Players will be full of vw fan boys with skinny jeans , expensive hair styles and their mum's polo with £1k wheels.

Don't get me wrong I love some of the cars there but last time I went I left hating the dub scene.

I work at jaguar land rover and had a discussion with one of the aerodynamicist's , the advice he gave me was. 1- front splitter - circa 75mm extending front of vehicle. 2- full flat bottom 3- deflectors at the trailing edge of the fuel tank to prevent the underbody air from hitting the trailing arm...

Imy - A chick with a dick is 'different' , doesn't mean it is right.

With the crap you've had to deal with in gunni and rot, to even get this project started is awesome.

I'm amazed you didn't weigh it in.

Fair play and I hope it gets easier from this point forward,

Rodderz:

I think you need to chill out a little.

If you get this upset of someone joking about clocking, I dread to think how upset you get watching the news.

If it were on a set £1150 (which is what it is on now I believe), I had £1150 to spend on a car *now*, and dare I say it - if it were not red 8O I would be all over it... To be honest, gone are the days of picking up minters for £1k (even 316s) I reckon that is probably a 2.5k car to the right pers...

Personnelly I would buy the best 316i you can get, this means next to no body corrosion, all the mechanical can be replaced very cheaply. Also it is a lot harder to find good 325i's, on that basis I would consider putting the 325i running gear into your mint shell in the future. Note - you can alway...

Shocking choice of wheels. Ultimately wheels make or break a project and with toplines this is well and truly broken.

A nice set of style 5s would look stunning and they cost about the same as your toplines.

Think it's £100 a pair mate.

Also consider 5x114, this opens up the options of all the jap fitment wheels.

I wouldn't worry about it, if they are in the market of stealing £30k Audis it is highly unlikely that they will bother with a 4 door e30.

Not worth the hassle.

Yep, considered breaking it so many times but I'm too far down the road to turn back now.

Cheers Guys,

Hopefully some more updates will be on there way.

Been messing around with swirl pots etc and spent a bloody fortune at Speed Flow.

I purchased a s15 sr20 that had previously been in a e30 and went from there. http://imageshack.us/a/img15/3578/photojul01150516.jpg While I was pulling together a plan for install I decided to get the perpex windows in. I've yet to do the tailgate / trunk windows but this will be done shortly. http...

Another positive vote from me. Bought parts from him and the service was very good.

That is not drifting! That is some complete twat with far more arrogance/ confidence than skill destroying an old cab.

Pricks like this give petrol heads a bad name.

What reduction in oil capacity is that? I personally would be worried that there wasn't enough oil.

Good idea but if the only reason you want 5stud is for looks, by the time you have sorted the front hubs at £400, rear m3 hubs at £280 and then sorted brakes etc you are fast approach image split wheel money Add to this the fact that the bearing can't be replaced separately, then you have a vry expe...

This may well be the case, but there is also a very Luddite view from some of the older zoners that become very aggressive towards the questions. May I suggest a Zone wiki is written to clearly run the new 'stance' based users through how to get an e30 to there desired ride height, but also indicat...

the regular "What coiloverz" "How low can I slam my 316" "How do I stop foooking my sump?" Sadly, that's the Zone these days. It's now degenerated to the point where there are very few posts worth reading. This one is a prime example - do you humour these Mongs, or get hating? This may well be the ...

I don't think anyone is doubting you ability but either way you can understand that this sort of thing damages reputations.

Gunni, I was always very impressed with your work and have considered using you before, however after reading this on Drift Works I was pretty disappointed. I don't know all the facts and there are always 2 sides to every story but taken at face value it doesn't look good! http://www.driftworks.com/...

If your interested in stance etc etc Go for 16's , this will close the arch gap but retain your sump to floor clearance

Sorry gents but cars just don't cut it.

This IMO makes 99% of all car laps lame.

Afternoon all,

After some advice on value.

Have just removed them from my e36 track car and have replaced them with a more track biased set up.

What are they worth?

Looks more like a 40mph impact to me, at an angle too. I hit a wall at 60+ in an E30 and didnt walk away, engine mounts broke, subframe/steering rack was pushed backwards and sheared off the column mounts I agree with this, never a 60 mph impact. In my previous job I was involved in 9mph off centre...
