Moderator: martauto
Cams next? I'd be happy with them kind of number, must add a bbtb to my part collection.
More likely to be a new car, but at the rate I'm saving money its never going to happen lol! A new exhaust, cams and mapping would be nice though. Im certainly chuffed
Me and monkey did better than the e36 lads 

Hehe, nice one, I'd say they were a little sickened
I've got cams in a box waiting for when I can afford to fit them and a remap
I was looking at Keri's setup, again, the other day but they won't fit behind the 9J wheels

i'm still not 100% sure. I really fancy jap turbo and i keep coming back to r32 gtr's at the moment. Its saving the money to get a decent one though. Decided against a s14a and rather have a r32 over an s15 i think.
God knows, i said i was thinking about selling up about a year ago and here i still am lol!

Get your brakes on,new exhaust and remap then go onto paintwork.
Will be one hell of a car then

S50 has crossed my mind, not to keen on the insurance however! I need a new exhaust anyway, I'm already rocking an m3 box and a suitable diff. I'm guessing i'd probably just need an s50 and a soldering iron to get it in. Im sure theres a hell of a lot more involved though!
I've still got a brand new engine stand sat in a box waiting to be used. My grandma no longer wants my engine in her garage so a 3.0/3.2 m50 has gone out of the window.
Im debating to get some 14's and winter tyres for it at the moment so the brakes are hanging fire atm! I need to decide on what colour I'm going to do them too. The fronts are gold at the moment and i got a tin of gold paint with them incase i decide to do gold all around - but i think it'll look crap.
BTW, theres an e34 525i sat in quarry breakers at the moment if you lads need any bits and a non vanos e36 with an airbox without a "bar" coming out of the side.

Good luck :l You can't get near the engine bay because its teetering on top of another car. As you go in, its in the far back left hand corner - literally right at the back tucked out of the way.

Ill take Mike with me...ill supervise on the groundCook318IS wrote:Good luck :l You can't get near the engine bay because its teetering on top of another car. As you go in, its in the far back left hand corner - literally right at the back tucked out of the way.

Very true! I've fortunately already got oneDezzy wrote:Every 24v E30 needs an airbox off one of them^^
Sounds like a plan! Theres only one e30 in too at the moment - a black touring. Not much on it worth nabbing and its only a 4 pot.eko wrote: Ill take Mike with me...ill supervise on the ground

Want to post the airbox to me in Ireland? I have cone but it come with a massive big hole on the side of it to let more air on.
I'm not sure when i can go back if I'm honest. I've had my hours changed so i don't finish at lunchtime on a friday anymore and normally do extra on a saturday so its normally closed by the time i finish.
If i do manage to go there and its still there i'll try to grab it

That be great if one of you could grab it

Its began to have starting issues recently. Its really slow to turn over but still starts, once its been started its ok for a while. Theres naff all current draw on the battery when the engine is off, and there is naff all voltage from the alternator casing to earth, theres 14.1v on the battery when it's idling but i haven't actually checked the voltage of the battery once its been sat for a while.
Ideas anybody?
Ideas anybody?

Yeah i did, where nothing would happen - no clicks no turning over or anything then suddenly it worked

If you dont mind me asking how much is your insurance now, I wouldnt mind m52'ing the touring been pricing stuff up and got an idea of spec i want.
About £700 tpft. Couldn't be bothered shopping around - too much hassle with a modified car and other people tend to give me shit quotes anyway!

23. A 2.6 twin turbo r32 gtr skyline is the same fully comp as this would be fully comp!
