Looking good kevo. Are ya giving the engine a spruce before it goes in?

Post Tue Jul 12, 2011 10:29 am

Yes i will be giving it a tart up mister, not quite to the extent of my last one (below) probably but a good clean and gasket replace before it goes in. i'm thinking of bringing the engine upwards too to put it in, seems to be an easier way i think too.

Hi mate, how's your project coming along?

it's in fella, haven't quite finished it yet as it's not quite running properly but i think they're just minor foibles more than anything else. i'll get some pics up once it's finished

Thanks to kevo I've only had to go and buy a bloody 2.8, e36 rack, bilstein 325 challenge suspension and lots of bits n pieces to get the car running. Kevs car goes really well. Nothing really between my civic type r road car.
So with all these good bits should have quite a quick rally car in the making, one thing though- I don't even own a BMW car yet??

He needs the m50 inlet ect then cos mine has no issues with type R's mate!

My friends got 1 and he can't get near me in mine

Is it that quick? I'll be looking for the inlet manifold for my conversion as want as many beans as possible for the rallying!

im running a remapped ecu aswel at the moment which is advised when using the m50 inlet to get the most out of it and she flies...!

Slowly going to get bits together. Bit difficult when kev giving all the encouragement to get it done and seeing at least 3 e30s everytime I pop over his house. Looking forward to doing an epynt and a forest rally on the loose.
