E30 Zone

hi guys ive got an e30 which now has the m42 318is engine in der. it use to be a 1.6i (m40)

rite wen i got the conversion done engine was in place running. . .evrything A ok!

then i noticed one of the engine mounts was cracked! the way the mount was sitting. . . it lookd like it was under alot of stress.

so i went to bmw got another mount which was orderd from germany bla bla bla! i jacked the engine up fixed it to the engine side first. . .but i realised there was no place for the the mini shock to attatch to.

on the previous engine mount there was a shock attatched to it.

also wen i bort the engine down it didnt line up on the rubber mount. . it was an inch or something. . . . so what ive done is turnd the rubber mount around to offset it and it has now lined up with the engine mount! i know its not the rite way at all but it was the only way i could do it for now.

engine was sittin wer it should be but im back to square one. . . the engine has come back down and the sump is sort of resting onn the sub frame thing!

anyone whos done this conversion can you please tell me what mount was used? i need to get this sorted! cheers guys!

if you could get a few pics that would be great, would make it easier to see what parts u have on there and what u need

ok il try and gt some pics up later on today!

basically if you use all the 318is factory mounting arms and rubber mounts it should fit on subfrme fine
