Bout time you had a proper engine

[Alex]

Here is some pictures for those asking













Went to fit the rear section of the exhaust however when the seller said the exhaust system was bodged to get it to his house i thought it was the cable ties holding it up however the whole thing is an epic fail. Basically its a 2 piece system thats been made longer for what reason i have no idea :S its a right mess so i need to get the front section re done. i'am no welder and cannot afford hundreds of pounds worth of manifold etc so your opinions welcome here. As i dont know how to get round this. Ideally if someone has an"off the shelf" manifold down to a 2 piece system sat in the garage i will buy it








I expect plenty of critasim but i wont loose any enthusiasm

[jack09]

i did say it was bodged mate i welded the diff on the touring and my brother inlaw mashed it on the weekend, gutted i only had it a week

Oh well sell the interior and bits and bobs you will get some money out of it.

Will a 2 piece exhaust fit upto the current manifold and sit in the right place or does that need altering

[jack09]

already listed the seats on here. if theres anything on the touring you need mate let me know, im only going to scrap it it mate when ive sold a few bits

[Alex]

dont think there is to be honest, Do you know if the standard 325i exhaust fits them flexi bits on the manifold

[jack09]

you know more than me me mate, i can only write them off

[Alex]

Haaa fair enough.

Was the front section before the welds part of the m30 engine or 325i exhaust

[jack09]

the front was m30 i beleive alex. from the weld back was only to get the middle silencer on to get home mate

[Alex]

just wonderd thats all

[jack09]

all will be well mate, just think of the outcome! and dont mind the haters they aint felt the power of a m30!!!

[Alex]

hopefully i will have it done by Santa pod in September, give it some runs down the strip

You can easily mate a 325i system to M30 downpipes,

Quote nicked from Charle30's thread.

To mate the standard M30B35 manifold to a standard 325i system easily you'll need to get hold of some more E34 downpipes chop them and cut a couple of slits so it can be clamped up on the 325 downpipes.

Chopped E34 downpipes


325 downpipes clamped into the E34 pipes


Chopped 325 downpipes

M30 downpipes are 50mm E30 325i system is 46mm so they slide in nice and tight.


Have you sorted the loom out yet? And where's the pics of these mounts?

Lee, think ive found a cream interior for this, would you sell the carpet out of the touring and somehow post it up here once the seats are out and under dash panels etc it just lifts out

[jack09]

yeah mate, im going to take out the seats in a couple days and ill rip it out for ya. you pay the postage and its yours matey

[Alex]

awsome ive sent you a pm too as i'am after the speaker panels too

When removing you can cut around the heater box if you wish as long as its above where the centre console would go, it just lifts over the throttle pedal and there is one bit you have to cut right at the top where the pedal box is other than that comes out easy enough

[magpie]

you just fold a carpet in half width ways then again length ways and it fits in a black bag and parcel tape it up tight then stick an address on waiting for a courier to collect it

[jack09]

My local halfrauds leave all the boxes round the side, if i need boxes i go there

[Rav335uk]

Sorry Alex, just read your PM, bacically as Lee has posted, it's easy mate, nothing to it.
These downpipes are fromt he E34 sliced and welded onto the 325 exhaust.
I've done the same.

[Alex]

Cheers Rav, ive been worrying thinking i need to spend a couple of hundred pound getting something fabricated

[Rav335uk]

I may even be able to salvage the ones ive got so all i need is a front section from a 2 piece

Whipped the engine loom out today.

Not sure whether to fix the loom with heatshrink and solder or to get another, not sure why the starter wire has been cut in about 3 places

It was a bastard getting the loom through the bulkhead but managed in the end.

this was the starter and fan control



Removing loom


Loom out



Starter wire cut





Dont understand why all these have been cut and put back together but hey ho



More starter wire chopping




Can anyone tell me what this is suppose to be connected to? its brown and white and goes to injector loom?



am i right in thinking these are normal on m30 converted cars?


green and black wire ??? whats the suppose to connect to ?



?????



Is this normal ? aircon perhaps ?



Bought a Danthe fan loom, and got a 324td washer bottle on the way from the dealers along with m3 battery tray wiring covers and lots of other odds and sodds

Ive also sorted a minty beige interior

[Rav335uk]

I think there was a wiring diagram listed in one of the build threads Alex.

[Alex]

Ah yes, i remember someone posting something up actually

is it the same as the m50 one ?

http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name ... c&t=158933

Not sure what brown and white is ?

[leeparkes]

Didnt realise the loom was that rough in your shoes id sack it and get another.
