Finally, actually for real this time, I'm getting it back from the paint shop. Troy ( formally 320guy until he got banned haha ) and I are going to try and break the record for the fastest manual conversion ever tonight. RACE IS ON.

Yes it is...

Although there are still some good deals up there, possibly needing a bit of work. The price of E30's, esspecially anything manual, is just going up and up. It's off da heezzy.

Host it somewhere and then put a link for the image between [img.] and [/img.] Just without the .'s

Everytime I have tried to bleed an m20 i open the bleed screw but nothing comes out, its just there for show im sure

I e30 i just bought has no thermostat. Just gets off the blue. It's getting near the top of my 'to do' list.

Yea but they are designed ( i think ) so if they brake the spring pushes the thermostat fully open, causing them to flow all the time.

If the thermostat is faulty / stuffed they are designed for stuff out to make the car run cold, not hot. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Replace the temp sensor for the gauge maybe? Or just swap one off that wreck you have out front....

If it's as straight as it looks than that was a great price...

$4500 max for me because its auto.

Haha thats all good. I would of had no idea either if I hadn't done a manual conversion before.

Ok ive already had PM's of people wanting to buy this. ITS A JOKE!!! We chopped it in half with an axe. I just installed a new short shifter kit, this is the original. Nobody got my joke.... =P EDIT: if you want a shifter kit, I just got one off SIR E30.

320guys shortshift kit. Comes with extention to make long shifter. Free to a good home. Modified by Bunnings Warehouse LTD.

It's the other way around at the moment, got the bottles as my main wheels, and the 17s as my..... other wheels.

Cheers guys Nah i dont do silly things, it's dangerous!!!

Wasn't argueing. Just stating what I thought.

I've found him to be knowledgable and helpful to others, okay he told a guy to get his e30 scanned because it was overheating. I'm pretty sure everyone would of realised it was a joke. I had a bit of a lol. He was being a d*ck, just to get a reaction. Considering the whole "get it scanned" thing has been over used until the cows come home means, I think, it's over. Your decision....

Picked up clutch and flywheel today. Got the flywheel lightened at Hydralink ( i think its called ). I think possibly they could of taken a bit more meat off it, but it's all good. I got the clutch, pressure plate, bearings, and machining at Waikato Clutch and Brake. Those guys are awesome, they are quick and know what they are talking about, and a reasonably good price too. Picking up car from paint shop this afternoon, manual this weekend. Hopefully sorting a short shifter through SIR E30. ****.

I wouldn't want to spend more than $1000 on that all up really.

What are you talking about? Doing a skid is the answer to everything

The internet needs threads like this, keeps ya sane.

more like 85mm to be honest after a bit of a hoon

Cant mention any numbers in particular, my lawyer will get angry, but we are talking on the low low here. I need bigger wheels... put it that way

Does shady have the deal fo you! You need a set of these ( pic )
