going m52?

[Cook318IS]

Yup, m50 is sounding a bit rattly too. May as well stuff in a 2.8 instead (pending insurance )

[Cook318IS]

it must be different if you ring them

[Cook318IS]

oh yeah maybe they changed it not long after i got my insurance? thats all i can think of.

[Alex]

god knows

i noticed as i tried an insurance quote with them a few weeks ago

[StuBeeDoo]

I don't have a lot to do to my touring.

It will need the front-rear brake pipe changed for the MOT at the end of August.

I'm thinking about upgrading the LPG system to injection.

I'd like to get some form of remap done.

Other than that, I just want to drive it as much as possible.

[nickso]

m52 freshened up and into the car.
roll cage, buckets and harnesses.
shift light and warning lights on dash.
coilovers, or at least sort out the shocking ride height temporarily.
LSD.

[fuzzy]

Will you be changing your name , to fussy ?

- Finally source some front legs for my M3 (might have to nip over to Germany...Anybody got contacts over there?)
- Fit full M3 Leather Interior (have to save some pennies for that)
- Fit Cruise Control which has been residing in the boot for some months now
- Kick back drive and enjoy

[nomadx]

get the buckets and doorcards I have sourced retrimed and fitted, fit my mint dash, source and have painted a spoilerless boot lid, get the little bit of rust the car has sorted, lower the rear, refurb and fit the mas alloys. other than those bits, polish it and enjoy the summer, then tuck it up for winter. Thats all on my chromie, have a few other projects on the go to thou!

[BMJG]

hoping to have the sport on the road

[tomislav]

to get the S62 installed and be driving the car before the end of the summer

Is that the 5 litre v12 engine you're talkin about?!?!?!?

Thats MAD!

no mate, it's the E39 M5 engine

i've already done the V12 into an E30

Thats awesome! You have my up most respect. But then it does seem to be your job from what i can tell.

Saw the alfa v6 thread recently for the first time. Amazing. I'll be getting hold of you if i ever go the v8 route (i've been offered a k reg 740 for 500quid!)

[tomislav]

Hang on... Just realised you didn't do the alfa!!!! Ignore me, i appear to be an idiot, and now to get back on topic!!!

[Jones]

Swap in my 2 other painted wheels tomorow. Se side skirts, mudflaps, boot spoiler by the end of January. Body shop touch up, full re-bush, rear discs, s/s exhaust, sort out the interior, and eventually engine conversion, m42 probs.

[mt1104]

- Do some more road rally events
- Get used to the car moving around underneath me, going sideways.
- Up my speed slowly every event, until I feel it at a level I deem fast but safe.
- Fit a smaller wheel so I'm more comfortable.
- Fit my SA spec sump guard.

potential summer jobs:
- fit new bushes to rear beam + trailing arms
- convert to rear discs
- fit 4.45 diff + new diff bush
- fit hydraulic handbake

[E30BeemerLad]

Get the chromie 24v powered and keep it on the black stuff

[Alex]

Mine will change at the weekend

[winx]

finish rebuilding the rear end (will wait till later in the year now as it's too cold in the garage.)
Replace head on the M30, give it a quick run to the dyno to prove the power.
Remove M30
Find an LS1 preferably within the uk
fit LS1 and T56 box.
Do ring and trackdays a plenty...

And the likelyhood of me completing my plans?? Not great if the house purchase goes through...

[Fushion_Julz]

House purchase is the key for me, too...
Having already sold my current place, our new house comes with the bonus of a huge garage...

The M3 will get new uprated ARBs, probably a shorter diff, but other than that I'm going to be saving some money towards sorting out the rust issues next year...

[sl]

My aim...get a good 20k miles on my E30...

[cliffybabe]

Sell the cab or get back into it again

[Baz666]
