    Yeah that’s if being fussy. Get an M5 steering box with servotronic. Wouldn’t be gutted.

    A written off project car popped up on a NZ Facebook page yesterday. It turns out that it is meant to be NZ new? Does anyone know how many NZ new 3.0 4 door E36 M3's were sold? https://carjam.co.nz/car/?plate=tx9595

    Cleaned the E36. Picked up a 328i exhaust cheap - hopefully an upgrade on the 323i single pipe.

    I'd say that's exceedingly unlikely given you found a post from over 3 and a half years ago.

    If you mean the thrust arms can be twisted a bit by hand then that’s normal. I can do that to my ones and i’ve just replaced the bushes about 2 weeks ago.

    I know that's what Ray did with the S62 into the E46 vert. Not sure I'd go that way but it's proven to work. Don't you find the on center feel of the M5 steering box a bit dull Martin?

    Went to a drag day over the weekend. Finished second in DYO, broke out in the final by 0.6 of a second. Car was running super consistent, I just need to sort an over heating issue when the car is not moving. It starts getting hot when sitting in line and especially during burnout, but once moving it cools back down. Might need a better fan. Set the fastest time so far, 15.75. Not bad I think for a stock M30B35 with 3.07 diff.

    Keep the original sump and modify an e39 v8 subframe?

    haha yeah flow is often forgotten, cold oil, plenty of pressure but low flow is the classic example. I think it's easier to switch something via pressure though, I'm sure inline oil flow meters exist but the cost and how the data they produce would be used would be the challenge.

    I'll re-read the thread, but what are you doing for EMS? Michael's suggestion of an electric pump, cutting the engine in the event of low oil flow or pressure (pressure ain't everything!) would work.

    Oh yeah of course, what a pain in the ass. Would really need to remove it and run an remote oil pump, almost be best with a basic dry oil sump. That would sit right where the steering rack is.

    How's everything going? Any updates?

    Well done on the project and the detail, following this with interest. Once my E46 coupe may end up getting a V8....there are so many nay-sayers online in regards to it not fitting purely due to the sump, which does seem a cop out
