  1. can someone please put up a full list of what i need to do this and a rough price you'd pay im gona look on trade me but dont wana put more than its worth

    so far

    discs

    callipers

    disc trailling arms

    anything else?


  2. hay thanks for the help im moving it az im going to have a 2L turbo mazda engine(fe3t) droped in it once iv got enough cash and the rest of the car is ready. the guy doing the swap said he know where it is and can build the manifold foward of it but i am abit worried bout having the master cylinder behind the turbo(heat wise).

    but in saying this i was texting my mechanic earlier to see if he could do it and raised a good piont what about suby's there turbo is right in front of the master cylinder and they have no problems just run dot 5 fuild.

    how much am i looking at to buy the bits needed to swap my drums to disc

    if anyone has some good second hand bits around pm me please or post in here


  3. hay again just acouple questions im just starting to get the car ready for the engine swap later this year and the main thing i have to do at this piont is brakes.

    my problem is i have drums on the rear and want to swap to discs

    iv had a quick look around and have found i need disc trailing arms,discs,callipers(this is just what i found if theres more please list)

    will these bolt into the drum subframe or is it easier to swap the whole rear end?

    and will the brake lines from the drums fit the callipers?

    or cheaper to go after market? not looking for full on race brakes just something thatll stop 200rwkws without any trouble a good street set up.

    also whats involed in moving the master cylinder is it possible to remount in the car(hard or easy) im trying to keep the cost down within reason just woundering what im in for.


  4. hay guy just a couple small things needed at this piont the surounds for the inside door handles the bit the handle clips into and the surround piece both passanger front and back.

    and if anyone has some seat rails for a drivers seat

    all for an 87 e30

    cheers brian

  5. yeah just looking for your opinons im leaning towards ethier the smoked ones or smoking the standards (but after having tinted lights on my mazda and not being able to see when reversing im not to keen)

    i think blackend would look ok on black or darker colours but az im prolly staying with the factory sliver/blue dont think theyll suit it.

    just not really that keen on the standards big red blocks in the back of the car

    can anyone else get all of ollies pic to come up it get bout quater way and stops or is it just my comp

  7. thanks man its pretty rough paint wise someones done a doors closed respray on it at some piont over the factory paint and its cracked in places and there a nice spot in the middle of the front graud where i chiped out some bubbled bog today.

    but in saying that its a project if it was mint it wouldnt be


  8. hay all just throught i might aswell put my ride up here its nothing great at the mo kind of a work in progress az its my first bmw.

    when i got the car it had under car neons( i have yet to turn them on lol) king springs, 17 inch mak stings, bits of interior painted bright blue, and the most uncomfurtable seat iv ever sat in.

    so far iv replaced the motor az the orginal toasted itself fitted a kn filter and a rps exhust, i started on the interior today changing it all to black instead of the factory blue and stripping the bits that had been painted blue.
