I'm going to have a look around for the another diff as that seem to be my main problem.
Had a unichip fitted and tuned afew months back and it made 249bhp and 235 of torque so its got the power to run better times just need to sort out the gearing.

Can anyone tell me what other diffs fit in the E30?
That's a pretty healthy power figure 8O Nice one, do you have a build thread anywhere? Or specs on your engine winkeye
No sorry never done a built thread as been i've doing bits to it over the last few years.

I removed the head and refurbed it with new seals, Re ground and re seated the valves, ported and fitted a CAT 284 cam.
had a custom, twin 2.2 inch stainless system made for it.
Unichip fitted and live mapped.
Twin cone air filter
Homemade alloy air box with cold air feed.

Not much more i can do on it without spending big bucks!
Would like a 6 branch for it but its a joke how much these sell for :eek:
That's not bad going :)
does the Unichip setup do away with the flappy AFM?

You can set it up so it doesn't need the AFM but it only gains 2-3 more bhp so didn't see the point.
Motorworx in marlow installed and tune it for me.
A guy there called danny really knows his bm engine and a good tuner

14.5 @ 94.89mph

M30/b35
Show's my start was bad then, 14.6 @ 95 mph.

Also think the 3:64 diff would be best suited for the strip with the m30 then..

My old skyline did a 12.5 best at the pod.
Jon, I saw you pilot that E36 shitter up the strip in 2006, there is no way you drove a 12.5, you must have handed it over to an M30 driver :)
Fuck me that feels like more than 4 years ago. That was in that sport with the tired clutch. I think i got 15.5 if i remember(who cares).
