I think you need to buy a E36 Compact

Now he can buy a real car.... a BMW

Lance... it was the best handjob (holding my knob) I've ever seen in my life. She had total control of my knob. And she didnt drop it.... or scratch it

Nice knob eh ??

+1...+2 ....+3 fully support you with this

I might have to ask them

Sorry your wrong guys.. Needs to be scanned first and then diagnosed from that point. Pleased to try and help you... just give me a call

I took a digi photo.. am I allowed to post it ?? like (R18) OR (R25) ????

No comment

I wouldnt say short...just positive

She said she liked the feel of it... and it felt so firm.... aggressive like.. I dont know... is that a girl thing ?? I just was amazed watching her play with me knob

But...but ... but.. she played with it Dave... its never been played with or polished in its life It feels nice now though

Does that mean "whats the fuss" ????

Recheck your member list Simon

Had a member (female) come to my work today.... and after discussing problems with her car SHE ASKED ME !!!!! ...... "can I play with..... or polish your knob"... I had to say......... OK be nice to Uncle Glenn

I have the pedal bracket from Ray which is stripped now. Im going to fit the pedals straight onto the bracket in my car as the bracket is the same for manuals & autos. Can do a pic when I'm finished if thats what you need. What exactly were you wanting to know ??

Pictures will get edited with explanations later

It wont be alright. It will have bent valves, they are a no tolerance motor. Not worth repairing if its going to cost more than the grand you said it was worth...and it will cost more than a grand.

It needs to be scanned and the fault codes need to be investigated by someone with a brain. I thought we had mentioned this before ?

I have been accused of doing that though and thanks.. will get on with it and hope that someone else will benefit from this thread... any questions or specific interest to certain things we are doing?? please ask and I'll provide while we are doing this

The bell housing clearances are close going with the 240mm pressure plate and clutch plate, as apposed to the standard 219mm system. I'll also give the wiring mods that need to done for the starter and reverse lights and the engine loom with photos.

No...when you turn the ignition off it provides an earth through systems that need a positive feed to work. Jochen or Grant (hotwire) might be able to explain this better...I've done this heaps of times before.

Stripped the car this afternoon. Diff out, interior strip, pedal box, motor & gearbox out. Onward we go. The only thing that will hold us up is the UUC flywheel & M5 clutch plate, which I hope will get here next week... Lots of photos to come. The flash has been working all day BTW: 3 hrs.... Cooling system, exhaust system, diff, complete engine and g/box wiring harness, engine and gearbox out and interior strip as per photos (to follow) by myself and one apprentice. I estimate the conversion will loose about 50kg in total vehicle weight...pity I didnt weigh it before I did this Note: Total strip time including what I did early this morning 7hrs..... 4 for me, 3hrs for an apprentice
