Thanks, would prefer to find 7.5" to match the set, otherwise would have the 8.5 on front and 7.5 on the rear, seems abit backwards unfortunately, Thanks Cam

Hi guys, Putting a M20 flywheel on my M52, therefore single mass. I have found varying info on the bolts required, going to get new ones. Are the M12x28 flex plate ones the right ones to order again? Or should I be looking for another length? Thanks

Hi Guys, After a M50b25 inlet manifold to swap onto my M52b28 to get it running. If anyone has one or the whole kit id be keen on it, P.S i have done the research on the loss of torque etc, Thanks Cam

Its in the for sale section

Sorry would only be after a E36, did see your one for sale though! Looks tidy!

Plenty of info online about these swaps, E30 wiki r3vlimited Google in general Theres also a project swap on here that Modz is doing under the project area with the same motor One thing to be wary is if this is your first project swap, that it might look cheap on the surface but it often snowballs, so you have to be prepared for that. Youll also probably want to sort suspension, wheels, brakes, diff out at the same time. The motor is the cheap part,

Its back And 5 stud swapped tonight Have some old eibach springs in there and original shocks bolted in to hold all together. Will work on getting medium case tidied up and lsd in. Steering rack on its way so will swap that over and finally start bolting the main parts in

Bit of progress this week! Rear end painted up Car off to panelbeaters tomorrow, was very rusty along boot seal lip so new panel will sort it all Done the dentent shift pin rebuild in the weekend, what a fun job that is..... Have an online order on its way with front and rear seals etc for the motor to swap in and hopefully get the sump and gearbox on in next few weeks
-
Sorry guys, no real assembly progress as of yet, waiting on panel beater to have some free time to swap the rear panel, was rusty behind the towbar so going to unstitch and stitch a replacement Have started to strip the rear end and will 2k coat it black Couple of other goodies have been purchased, M3 evo brakes and new rotors, brakes have been rebuilt and hawk pads which ill keep aside for work outs and put in good day to day pads for weekend driving Along with these to go on the motor eventually Hopefully the next update is either a new panel on the back or the rear end assembled and the new wheels mocked up!

Getrag 220 box complete with everything to do a swap, pedal box, shifter for a 4cyl, driveshaft, flywheel and clutch, clutch line, brake reservoir, starter motor. Surround will need a new boot, needs a new guibo as last one was worn, and new gearbox mounts. Was keeping for a rainy day incase I got an e36 spending it all into my e30. Located Dunedin but can freight or assist with delivery to lower south island. $1200

These arrived in the post today, seat adapters Quickly bolted one up to see how it would look Doesnt look too out of place

Not trying to rain down on your parade, but you'll probably struggle to get any manual BMW series box for $500 these days

Maybe you could message this guy? Look to be in very good condition so well worth the price!

Still on the hunt

I'll PM you. Thanks

Was originally going to use a e36 rack as I have one here spare but going to grab a purple tag instead after reading more into it should be abit nicer

Well it's out. Will purchase some simple green tomorrow to clean it up. Then off to get rust sorted before I put up on jack stands and underseal it. Will then remove rear end, steering and suspension along with brake booster

Its begun E30 in shed last night, rear lights bumper trim etc off for rust inspections. Not as bad as thought. Motor wiring disconnected, will drain fluids and disconnect exhaust and driveshaft tomorrow night. Motor out by weekend. Purchased these a couple weeks back, also have the rear seat to unstitch for cloth repairs Rolling chassis by next week, better start doing the detent refresh on the ZF and get the rust repaired.
