Silver Fox

ok, to fit this you need to pull the red bit out fully, then you can push it into its bracket. you the have to push the red bit back to where it is in the pic, this locks it in place. it's harder to get out as you have to pull the red bit out again.

Facelift is a small square plug which pushes into a square housing on the bracket, prick of a thing to get off and on. Pre f/l is the round one with a nut and adjustment, f/l has no adjustment apart from a small hammer. part 6 here is pre f/l http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?mo...hg=35&fg=05 Can't find the square one on realoem but have certainly seen them on E30's.

Andy, bmw3, stopped on the side of the road, bonnet up, lots of steam, red touring, Puke golf course this morning, then, this afternoon in the E30. Sup Andy?

Happy Birthday Grant.

Carl K B's I believe.

Happy Birthday Tony.

Happy Birthday Andrew, see you at the weekend.

Happy Birthday Josh.

That sandpit's pretty good Ashkan, stopped me a couple of times.

Ah, wrong, he wants non chrome bumper, so that makes it facelift, 88 to 90.

What you not telling me boy?

+1 agree completely Brian for once, the site of Goff pretending to help clean up with no protective gear and in civvies was laughable.This is one for the experts, you have to remove the sentiment I'm afraid.

Correct, but talk to Gavin first, he may have the files he needs to do the ECU without you having to shell out for their chip.

Happy Birthday Jochen.

Happy Birthday big boy, Skid pan again eh.

Very close to the getrag in ratios, no difference really, supposed to be slightly stronger. Quite different to the M3 box.

We have a couple of the series cars using them Darren.

Not me, car's on axle stands, no suspension, struts out, motor and box out at the weekend, might be a tad busy over the next few weeks?

You should do the Oct 8th one day meet at Hampton, being run by Taccoc. $175 for the day, qually and 3 races at least, entry at Motorsportentry site.

Hans, aka dutchy, bmrmad on here

Chris, your box behind the M40B16 won't bolt up to the M50, different bolt pattern.

I tried to tell him, but he never listens.

You would.

Happy Birthday Marty, do a SKID.

From memory at Taupo the top series cars do 1.53's, and average is 1.55 to 1.58
