Thank you. I used tetra schutz with a spray gun

It's a scorpion. I wanted a eisanmann exhaust but with my other builds taken into account... my pockets are not deep enough haha

Thanks.

Yes exhaust is level. Just how it looks on photo

I am keeping a look out for some bargain cams along with unicorn teeth

I have seen somewhere about using m50 non vanos exhaust cam on intake side but need to do some more research on that.

I have had experiences in the past with the aluminium blocks pulling threads. I did find a solution with retapping block and using vw head bolts though (successfully worked on 5 or 6 engines) However the m50 block might still be the way forward. Would the ECU and loom have to match the engine... IE ...

S54 photos?

That's long gone dan. Was Fergs but Calum was using it.

Cheers Dave. As with most builds the only limit is time and/or money

Thanks.

For the plastics I used fine wet and dry and then rattle can spray painted with satin black. Looks OE but fresh. Still look perfect over a year later. I just just trim shine now.

As for the underbody I used a shutz gun

very impressive work. lovely car but my god that is the most rotten trilaing arms I have ever seen.

keep up the good work

This year shows need updating on the stickies!

Any club stand this year?

E46 powerflex ones fit well

All the info you need is here...

Sump needs to be from m50 2.5 e34. Expect to pay around £200

Also good luck changing the cam belt

Dan may also be able to advise you on brakes. Also if you decide to replace alternator anyway I have a brand new genuine BMW one still in the box

PROGRESS!! She is back on the road! Rear end rebuild done... Powerflex: trailing arm bushes. Axle bushes. Top mounts. Anti roll bar D bush and both link bushes. Danthe's camber /toe plates welded on.

Thanks guys. Rich... I shall be looking forward to updates in the future of your newly acquired 318is. More slow progress. Whilst the rear axle is out I have protected areas I previously coudlnt get to: http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f231/p_viddy/Mobile%20Uploads/6CAD3DE8-6421-4AFC-A683-80EE09DBC...

Any room for my mates Estoril Blue e36 m3 Evo? Or e30s only?

its the thermostat housing that will have a plastic housing however the water pump originally came with a plastic impellor that is prone to failing so definitely worth changing. change all gaskets if possible. I have never seen a m52 knock sensor fail so I personally wouldn't bother. also if alterna...

I love this car. perfect little track toy. Top job Ian & Dan!

My only small and extremely petty little quibble is the front wipers look crap... stick some standard bosch ones on instead of the crappy flippy floppy aero blades

I wish the car park at work looked like this these days!

I wish my driveway looked like that

E60 M5 and E30 M3???? The world is not just

That looks clean

it takes a LOT of effort to get the fiberglass panels right. A mate of mine owns a bodyshop and is currently making himself a rep. He is fortunate enough to have a genuine m3 in the at the min so has measured everything so its perfect. Took him months to get right though.

proper job on the rear axle. Nice work

Oh the battle of rust. The war all e30 owners fight.

good luck with the project

I believe Dan (Danthe) is going to be selling these soon
