Hi guys, Just wondering how many of you guys have done a M52 swap on your E30's. Im seriously looking into it, ill put up the E46 hopefully this summer and get it sold so i have a bit more to play with when it comes to this. I have been reading around and i doubt i can do this with the resources available to me, but it would be ideal and make a great project. Problem is, it cant be off the road for long! I have decided first step is to get the M20 currently in there manual converted with a Getrag 260 which can later bolt onto the M52. I have also asked about a ljet to motronic swap, but is it best to just leave this till the engine swap time comes around? I couldve bought a manual E30 and skipped one step and saved a bit of money, but im in too deep now. I like this car way too much to even consider getting another just to make this whole process easier. I just need to look around for a M52B28, the plan is to get that and slowly work on it, then when the time comes hand it over to someone to do the swap. Although what would be ideal is, have someone that has done the swap show me and i would love to work alongside to see what is actually needed and how it all goes together. I feel confident in doing everything BUT the wiring which seems like the worst part. The car will be a DD and it would be nice to have a bit more power and reliability than the ghost kms M20 currently floating around in the front of the ol' 323. Thought about a stroker for it, but the M20 is getting a tad old and tired now, i have been babying it since i got it, but thats been about 3 months out of close to 30 years of unknown history. And reliability is key, the M54 in the E46 even though its just the baby B22, has an awesome feel and sound. And has been pretty reliable so far, touch wood. And no, no boosting please. Sorry that this has been less of a question and more wanting opinions/guidance/experiences from people who have done the swap. I just want to know what its like to live with and what in entails. As much forum surfing as i do, its all overseas and it would be nice to have some Kiwi input on the matter. Rough costs/time, any information you or anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-797648681.htm Looks like a nice example, too bad I can't even remotely afford it. It also doesn't have the gaudy white steering wheel like this one that has already been mentioned on here somewhere http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-787402177.htm

Hey everyone. Im in need of an E30 expert. I have recently try to fix my m tech 2 facelift, I set half an hour aside on sunday arvo, but like every bmw job it turned into two hours and not yet completed. I have identified the problem I had with the front bumper. It was that the hooks that hold the bumper to the inner metal frame are broken and need replacing. This little hook is the only one that wasn't broken out of 5. So I need to remove the other ones, but to do this I think I have to remove the middle piece of the bumper, but how I do this is where im stuck. There are two large start bolts on the bottom of the middle piece that I suspect is where you undo it and it will just slide out but im hoping someone can comfirm this or point me in the right direction of how to do this. Cheers

Hi Guys Have a small issue with my 1990 325i Sedan. From the drivers door, everything unlocks/locks fine (except for the fuel flap, but I know I need to replace that actuator) However from the boot, I am unable to lock/unlock my drivers door. Every other door unlocks fine though. -So if all the doors are unlocked, and I try to lock from the boot, all the locks (excluding the drivers) lock, then because the drivers door is still unlocked they go back to being unlocked. -If all the doors are unlocked, and I try to unlock from the boot, passengers and rear doors unlock but drivers door stays locked. Any ideas? I'm thinking perhaps the drivers solenoid isn't too flash. Thanks Nick

1990 E30 318i Coupe WOF till December 25th 2014 Rego just expired Thought I’d post this up on here before putting up on Tardme. 1.8 M40b18 Odo shows 164k’s, however it has stopped about a year and a half ago, so actual will be higher, but not by more than around 5-7k. It has the usual tappet noise but otherwise runs well. Drinks a frugal amount of oil. Had recent replacement gearbox mounts and 1 engine mount. Highlight of this car is the Genuine Alpina 16” wheels with Yokohama tyres. The fronts are alright, the rears are getting low but still above legal minimum. No centre caps, however the wheels are in great condition without curbing or scratches. The suspension has been overhauled with New King Springs [super low] and New KYB shocks. This does not sit too low on this suspension, as seen in the pics, but it does a great job of holding the car nicely and is great for the road. New bushes were installed at the time meaning it handles much better than the boat it was before. Link to the build thread here The interior is in poor to excellent condition - meaning some parts are excellent e.g. the rears seats and trim, and some are poor like the front seats - the front seats are original but have the fabric blown out, especially on the driver’s side. The rest of the interior is fine/ excellent. Dash has a few cracks. Light controls moved to roof console - airplane styles - missing trim under dash on RHS of steering wheel. The exterior has a few marks, and the area around the RHS boot needs painting. It was repaired [rust] and is still in primer/sealer photos of repair can be supplied. There is also a small patch near the aerial in the same condition. The rear bumper is cracked, however a non-damaged spare can be included. The front bumper has already been swapped over but has not been painted. The side window trim has come off on one side and needs new clips to put it back in place. This was my project car but I’ve taken a job in Sydney so no longer have the capacity to complete it. I’m not asking too much as I realise that it is in an incomplete/slightly dirty unfinished condition, however most of this work is superficial and with a bit of TLC this car could come up nicely. VERY road worthy and just passed a VTNZ WoF. Asking $1500 neg. as is. Call or text Richard 021 606 703 who is selling on my behalf so any questions about history - PM me here as he is only handling the sale/inspections.

In need of a e30 pedal setup for a manual conversion. have d-shaft and gearbox just need everything else.. I have an e34 manual pedal box id be willing to swap for this setup Cheers Ace -
Anyone interested in a new project? This engine has a suspected blown head gasket. The cooling system is becoming over-pressurised; but the radiator, water pump and thermostat are all good. The car has not overheated, and is still driving beautifully. Aside from this engine issue, the car is in great condition. There is a spot of rust inside one of the rear door surrounds, but aside from this the body is rust-free and in excellent condition. The interior is good, although the driver's seat is getting pretty worn. The wagon is an auto, it reads 238000km on the clock, is WoF'd until November and rego'd til April 2015. I have owned the car for 9 years, and have loved it. It is a really great car to drive. I have kept it well maintained and am sad to see it go - but I need a bigger car (and have bought one already), and I am not up for the repair mission this wagon needs. I have taken the stereo out (for the new wagon), but have included the Panasonic stereo (which I took out of the new wagon). I am trying for $2000ono. Car is based in Grey Lynn, Auckland.

does anyone know if a getrag 260 off an M20 will just bolt straight onto a M40? and if so, are the splines on the clutch plate the same?

Recently became the proud new owner of a particular brilliantrot e30 e318is (+turbo). When I bought it, the diff was making noise, the clutch was (and still is) slipping due to a cheap replacement, the short shift lever was grinding on the driveshaft and it failed a warrant due to the missing highbeam. I've since fixed (or had fixed) all but the clutch and just on the hunt for a decent road clutch that'll take the power it's putting out. I believe the motor was done by Kayne Barrie (or one of his apprentices) in '03 and has been through a few owners in and around Auckland. Here for the knowledge and the know-how that graces these forums and hopefully attend a few meets. Sorry for the shitty quality I-phone photos. -
I'm getting rid of some of the parts I've accumulated as I'm living in Aussie now and can't keep the E30. So I've got a leather ///M Sport gear gaiter for sale. Its got the 3 stripes rather than just coloured stitching. Think I paid $20 for it, so $10 takes it. Pics below:

As the title says, I've got a brand new, totally unused passenger side tie rod end for an E30. Unfortunately you can't see the part number, but I'm 99% sure this is the LH side as I replaced the RH side. Unless they are both exactly the same in which case ignore my ramblings. Say $10 Pics below:

Wanting to buy a full manual conversion for a E30 325i m20b25 after a conversion with getrag 260 but will consider getrag 240.

Hi Guys, I've got a pair of spotlight blanks for a facelift E30. They're in good condition and are in Atlantisblau , they just need a clean. These fill up the ugly gap-toothed holes in the valance and are a great alternative to wiring in spots. Think I paid $65 for them, so $50 takes them away. I can post to where ever at the buyers expense. PM me for details Cheers
