Told you it was more hassle than it was worth at the time IIRC.mt1104 wrote:make sure you have the right one for the gearbox though, I get sent the wrong one by ECP but luckily the one in the engine was the correct size so I just greased it up and put it back in.
The exhaust from the e30 318is is needed though, I modified my m40 one and tbh was more hassle than it was worth.
Thats a pig to track down unless your made of money. In the end I just kept my scorpion cat back from my m40 which was still bolted up to the m40 front section. As there was a few feet of m42 front section (it had been cut just before the cat/silencer) I chopped 2 slots in the m42 front section, chopped the m40 front section to match, sat one inside the other, exhaust paste all round and a 2 inch u bolt to clamp it down. Works fine IMO.The exhaust from the e30 318is is needed though, I modified my m40 one and tbh was more hassle than it was worth.
exactly the same as what i done M40 exhaust slots niceley inside the m42 down pipe then just clamped it and welded it uprobbo86 wrote:Thats a pig to track down unless your made of money.

Picked up an IS exhaust for £50, I thought it was worth it.
