Welcome. Nice looking car

Making good progress, i've always wanted to do this swap good luck!!

I have a disk brake setup for the rear of an E30, was removed for a 5 stud conversion. missing the handbrake cables as i still needed those. only after a bottle of Bourban or something for the setup.

Finally finished off the 5 stud conversion on the E30

Leather looks good, is the re-dye easy enough to use? my leather is looking a little sad

Love the ti, always wanted to build one like that.

We have seen alot of the corollas switching over to the Bridgestone tyres because the Michelins are a little bit harder, and an unfortunate characteristic of that model corolla is that they have a lot of interior rattles. The supercats are getting decent mileage, a little lower quality than the Michelins but seem to last just as long.

Mine arrived today Cheers Andy

One set sold I have one left. Have a spare set of bottle caps, I don't need anymore since doing a 5 stud swap, tyres are all worn maybe 2mm $100ono for the set. I don't mind selling separately $30 each Also have the wheels from my E30 for sale as also no longer needed. After $350 have two brand new tyres one at 4mm other has shoulder wear pictures are of the best and worst tyre there is curbing on the wheels (wife parks by feel) it has been painted over but could probably use a clean up.

haha sorry its there to stay, i finally got around to getting the engine fired up the ECU was the hard part to find

Haha found it WBABF32020JB02528 hope this helps

I think i have the VIN number somewhere, i have the ECU from that car in my E30

Video of the engine start up, no exhaust and still needs a tidy up, but nice to hear it fire up. http://youtu.be/5c58k-lhnLM

sorry for the delay, have txt you

My gem, the mighty 4k 4 speed manual

The m5* conversion is relatively straight forward, can be done using various BMW parts 8k would get it done nicely

sounds like your starter relay's getting tired, happened to my old E30 too

Spoiler sold lip and valance center still available

PM'd you

Saw these on a car lined up for squashing at a scrap yard thought id take them and see if anyone wants them boot spoiler SOLD lower lip $25 valance center plastic $15 lower lip has a crack, see photo, but could be repaired

Ya its the long plastic strips that sit over the rubber door seal along the bottom. There are two that sit side by side on each side ones just flat on the outer side of the car(i have these), then there's another one right next to it towards the inside of the car which hides the edge of the carpet, i need these

Got a hood lining, can anybody help with the rest?

Ya I'm still using the 240 which will no doubt crumble with the turbo setup going on, I've been trying to find them but not many people want to sell them separately from the manual conversions

Have had it running but i keep distracting myself with more stuff, I was going to leave it at the M50 swap for a while but i found a spare T3/T4 turbo gathering dust so ill rebuild for a turbo setup, have an LSD and a 5 stud conversion setup to fit so it will keep me busy for a few months. Also still trying to find a drive shaft and selectors to suit I had mine shortened but i'd still like to find some originals to keep the conversion tidy.
