Fan and horn now wired up,just waiting on the caliper now too give it its first road test
i closed my eyes as i pressed "buy it now" though, so it didnt really happen becuase i didnt see it happen You dont need brakes to go test it sideways 
Both jobs done now,will be dropping it off in the morning for the retestCook318IS wrote:Aye, would of been nice if it passed first time - would of been a good 21st birthday present! But at least its only simple things that need to be done!
Engine should be producing about 190BHP.
Certainly does. Are you keeping the 316 badge on the back BTW? Just to give the local pug and corsa drivers a bit of a shock?Cook318IS wrote:Really does have that sleeper look with the standard ride height
It does sound fantastic. I was over at Tony's the other day and it's a hell of a car. I can't help thinking that the M50 looks so at home in an E30 and your's with the heat shield makes everything under the bonnet bits look very factory. This conversion is a great piece of work.Gotta love the noise of 24v's!!
without a doubt! My mate was in awe at how at home the m50 looks in the engine bay Tony really has done a super job on it 
spent all morning washing + waxing it. Regained my sight again now though because its so shiny!
Good luck, I hope to see this car in the metal at one of the meets soon (if ever get round to turning up to another oneeko wrote:Just about to take the car for its MOT retest,wish us luck
) It'll be all good! Im confident. 
Anyway...Your car's natural habitat is the Scottish Borders...Cook318IS wrote:
i hope i can make the october meet in the m50 though. I've got in contact with the previous owner of the iS to see if he wants it back. And i've had interest from others too. Feel sad now i've gone through the reciepts and service history for it though
M50 ftmfw!
Nah, as much as my ancestral roots are grounded in your part of the world and much further north , I have to say that Paul's car's natch home is along the winding lanes of the moors and coastal roads here in Devon. Congrats Paul and bloody well done Tony.daimlerman wrote:Cook318IS wrote: Your car's natural habitat is the Scottish Borders...
