E30 Zone

Here are a few pics of my E30 from Australia. It has a Linkplus G3 ecu to control the engine and vvti. No dyno as yet but expect to be around 180-200rwkw. (these engines are 220kw at the flywheel standard, but with extractors, exhaust and ecu it should be quite a bit more than that!) It is so nice to drive, very torquey and loves to rev! I would have preferred to use a BMW engine, but it would have been out of my very strict budget. Everything, including making mounts, adaptor plates for transmission, wiring, custom extractors and exhaust have been done by myself.

Welcome over.

Got any more pics of the Build?

Home made extractors:




Cushioned button/full face clutch plate.


Machined adaptor/spacer ring for unit slave cylinder/thrust bearing


Modified sump


Gearbox adaptor parts


Trans/Engine/Extractors all together

Those headers Manderal bends welded, or single tubing?
and are they ceramic coated?
