i got my lisence about a year ago and iv nearly lost if from demerits already. im looking into getting a radar. are they as good as their price?

just leave your car unlocked so you dont have to buy a new window a. it totaly sux when people do that a you should just hire a personal bodygaurd for your car if it gets too frequent lol

hey i got a motronic v1.3 ecu dont have serial numbers off by hand. not doing anything but colecting dust atm so if you want it gimmi a price cheers

hey guys i got a 3.46 ( im pretty sure its a 3.46 anyway) med case dif lsd. want to know if anyone is keen to do a straight swap for a 3.79 med case lsd diff?

your best bet is stripp the engine down and take it to a reconditioners. they will asess it and pressue/crack test it and tell you exactly what needs doing and what it will cost. if your going to get it rebuilt theres no point in just doing half a job and jus doing rings. you want to go full monty so you dont have to do it again in a years time. if you skimm the pistons you can lower compression that way. if you want extra hp your best bet is intake and exhaust systems maby a chip. but you are conteracting yourself by lowering the compression if you are not going to run boost straight away. im not sure about your motor but most bmw motors can run up to about 12psi safely although this will increase the wear of the engine. also you will have to find out if running boost will be aloud by your ecu

if you dont want to spend ur life savings doing it just flip the hinges to the other side of the door. not to hard the only problem will be re enforcing the car when you take the center pillar out

maby your inlet tube for the petrol is too small and cannot handle the flow rate of nz pumps. try just pumping it slow

hey i chekd out loom etc. there are 2 pins for the ecu. it has i diagnostic plug also. is this fl or pfl? also i need a distributor for it. the dissy is up by the cam and there is a blank plate on the side of the block where the other dissy sits. could i use the dissy out of my 320i which is on the side of the block? and wat about the 320i ecu? would that work?

hey guys

i gotta get a new clutch kit for my bmw its a 1985 320i manual do you know where i can get one fairly cheaply and how much it will cost? someone quoted me around 400 for a complete kit.

so if the ecu fits the loom it will work?

Motronic (BOSCH) computer from 1989 325i Motorsport..

numbers 0 261 200 164

1722190 001

made in germany.

these are the details i know about it.

i am not sure about the plug in the engine as the engine is not in the car yet. how can i tell if my motor is pfl or fl?

hey iv got a motronic ecu at home from a 1985 325i and ive got a 1987 325i motor. its the motor where the dissy is up by the cam and is controlled electronicly i think im not sure as i dont have the dissy. do you guys know if this ecu will work or do u guys know how i can find out?

theres a place in ch ch cald kelford cams they will regrind u a new cam to whatever spec u want for nt 2 much muny

hey guys wen i get my new mota dun im goin to do a twin exhaust system on it what type of tailpipes should i put on it and where should i locate them?

what this guy said is very tru. the most important part of your system exept for the front speakers is the head unit without a good one your going to get nowear. iv got a 1985 320i and im just running amped fronts and a 12" i took the rears out to help the base circulate. and it sounds amazing. the headunit cost me $600 and the rest of the system cost me around $200 and it easily out performes some of these $2000 ones

im making the exhaust myself so thats not a biggy. do you know where i can get adjustable pressure regulators and injectors and chip and everything for fairly cheap?

the pads seem prety hard and i am replacing the discs. my discs cost me about $150 ea. at one point the discs warped so badly they shook the bolts off the caliper and the caliper fell off and took half the brake line with it.

so apart from geting a new cam n fuel pump and exhaust system cold intake what are some good ways i can get my 325i motor hauling but not brake the bank??

i found a site

https://secure1.nexternal.com/shared/StoreF...et=products.asp

it has alot of stuff on it do u guys think any of this is worth while?

the pads are the same ones i got when i got the car and they still got about 6mm on them i got a disc rear end at home that i am going to put in when i got time. the disc is warping as oppossed to wearing out. the wheel bearing seem fine.

If it was me i wouldnt bother balancing,or port polishing. Id just upgrade the cam to a mild shrick one, re ring,check condition of the pistons, Some tidy extractors, Good exhaust system, and a basic link computer system. Done! 190ish hp good relaibility and save dollars on mods that dont do alot performance to dollar wise.

What about things like adjustable pressure regulator and crap like that? i heard that the bmw motors are alredy pretty well balanced. do you know where i can get things like a new cam etc for it?

i have a 1985 320i and i have just purchased a 325i motor to put in complete with everything exept flywheel clutch dizzy water pump ecu and throttle body. i am getting the engine balanced, re ringed honed out port polished and a 3 angle valve. can anyone advise me on what ecu to get and what i can do to get the most out of this motor?

many thanks oli

Hi all i beat u have been asked this before but. i wana turbo my 325I i was wonding on prices? and say a possible parts list needed. ive been looking at da motorsport in Istanbul, Turkey at there 520hp m3 turbo kit and what parts maybe needed for my car as there kit i dont think would suit my car. and the asking price of 10,000USD is a bit high for my liking. considering i think that would b bout 20,000NZD for me? ive always wanted to turbo or supercharger a bimmer ever since me and my mate jono got talking bout bmw's and i know ill be also looking at suspension upgrades and brakes to keep up with the power increase so im realy just after some advice on who 2 talk 2 in tauranga maybe? or just a ball park figure on what im looking at spending on it. thanks sorry if this post is miss place or hard 2 understand im still a newbie on here. any comments would b cool

thanks shaun.
