Good isn't it :mrgreen:

I'm actually in the process of getting a 10K agreed value on it for the insurance. Just need to get a signature and rubber stamp from a specialist on the paperwork and it should be sorted. I'm off to Munich Legends for an Oil service on Friday, so will get it done then. Last time it was in for a service, Barney said he was happy to do me a valuation.

Got my agreed valuation from Lancaster for a good figure, got Ron Parish to support the valuation plus with finding 'similar' spec cars currently on the market (in worse case of having to replace the Hartge) and the normal lost of photos all was ok. So bear in mind Ron, his opinion is highly valued (excuse the pun).

POA is the plate I like though but still not as good as WHU !!!!!! LOL

Ahh, sorry. Didn't realise it was a Football reference. It's all a bit lost on me as I'd rather insert red hot pins under my finger nails than watch a footy match :bolt:

The engine is an s50 lump out of an e36 m3 evo

ian took me out in this car. i wont go into detail but i nearly crapped myself. It stops quicker than it accelerates. The car is completely flawless there is nothing left to do on it, and from the outside it doesnt look tampered with. The conversion looks like it came out the factory as did every other option that has been fitted

imho the best e30 on here bare a few pshycho m3's

a true masterpiece ian :notworthy: :thumb:

suspension is bilstein shocks an HnR springs i think

brakes are unreal. I think the discs are suplied by some german company? mov-it or sumink? but they are huuuuuuuuuge drilled slotted bigger than my head

rears are uprated i think. whatever it is it fuckign stops it!

Anders,

You can see the full spec here. It's a bit old, but not much has changed, just added a few bits.

http://www.e30zone.co.uk/modules.php?na ... e=332m.htm

As engine conversions go, it was not that bad. Brake servo clearance was the biggest problem. It's all my own work apart from things like the Exhaust and propshaft.

Not sure about the Ring. I went back in September, but may pop over around Easter time.

The brakes are basically the same as you get on the front of a 993 Twin Turbo Porsche. The kit is from a German company called Mov'it who fit Porsche brakes onto most popular cars.

It's not a cheap conversion, and will only fit under a very small selection of wheels due to the size of the calipers.

Cheers,

Ian.
