Cheers guys I guess it'd be nice to be a little quicker off the line I guess so what do you all recommend? The diff is also generally worn out as it has a slow leak and needs replacing as it is, is yours a 320 or a 325 jimmy?? I find my 320 not toooo bad with power , recommendations all??? Bearing in mind I don't have $800 for an LSD

Hi all, I drove the work car the other day, and its a 1.3litre carby Hyundai, it was amazingly zippy for what it was... I admit it was about 12 years new, a WHOLE lot lighter and a hatch back, but never mind it got me thinking, the 320 was definitely still quicker (thankfully), this got me thinking, I still haven't changed over the diff when I did my manual conversion from the auto 4-speed to the manual 5-speed... my question, would I be seeing better pick up in first gear if I put the manual diff in? Some people have told me automatic diffs sometimes run better in manual cars due to ratios but how true is this really??? This sounds like a dumb question to me but I just dont know as i've never really played with diffs much! Cheers! Alex. Edit: Typo

sorry, which car would this be for?

looks good man, really like the ride height

this topic is posted twice?

the surgery isnt because ur blinded by the awesomeness of ur e30 is it??? sorry, but its f**king badass.

s-s-s-s-s-old!

thats crack up hahahahah, i speak german, the ads for a DIY shop , like mitre ten, the slogan is, have u got a better "own built idea?"

hahah nice... any idea on a time frame??

didnt mean to imply it didnt, sorry, im sure it does, video sound quality is a bit hard to make it out, its definately unique and you can hear it more in the hill climb vid, did u replace ur catty with a resonator of some sort?? ie a coby?

no, lol definately 635 I just cant remember the year,

Hey all, after a bit of advice, I have a fairly decent service history on my e30, but as soon as I bought it it has gone through alot of changes, and I have done things myself, have mechanics and panel beaters as friends, so can do cash deals with them, this means no invoices or receipts for alot of the work done, if in the event I want to re-sell my e30 sometime, i'd like to have a service history, but how should I do it?? Just write down what gets done?? Thats not exactly very authentic, and also, what will people who arent bimmersport members say when i've done alot of the work myself ie manual conversion. So, do any of you write up your own history or just leave it?? Or what do you do? Cheers.

Hi all, a while ago I posted a topic on a 6er which went no where, but a few months later and things have developed. I need some thoughts, and opinions and well, worth really, as im thinking of buying this, It is a 197....8? maybe, 635CSi, obviously the body is shot as its been sitting for a little while, and I hear these are pretty common to rust away to hell, 5-speed manual, 98thou k's, apparently this used to be an ex-racecar, it has a boot leg gear box (as far as I can tell, ie first on the bottom left) I think it has had some work done on the engine also, My question is, what would I offer for this car?? I havent taken photos because the body is written off, its de-regd all I want is its guts, it has the racing type cloth interior, and other little bits and pieces, all in all it USED to be very tidy before it was parked up, a fault (and there are probably many) is that the water pump was on its last legs, but i'd be replacing that anyway, so.. what would I offer??? and is it worth it if the engine is in need of alot of work as there aint exactly m30's raining from the sky for spare parts, the gearbox is un-usual and sounds quite appealing, so let me know! Cheers guys, edit: also, would I recoop any money by selling of what is still salvagable??? Is there a need for these parts???

mate i am KEEN if you can find some decent shipping, ill have a hunt around too, cheers

very.nice.

damn u for living so far away, I was so close to saying sold then I realised ur in dunny! edit: im assuming postage would be exspensive u have any idea?? Or am I getting ahead of myself and these are already gone?

hahaha cale ... crackup, I only hear a car accelerating sounds like most?

thats a nice e30 man, keep it and do a manual swap.you'll see petrol consumption drop by half. (well maybe) but it will definately drop alot.

Go to JC BMW and buy the BMW mountain bike!!! ITS MEAN!

first picture is classic! 'guy sccratching head' "Wheres the engine???" 'guy looking into engine bay' "hmmm... no idea" ... sorry thought it was funny, how much are you after?

i needed 3 sockets but then I think the smaller ones I had were on the inspection cover maybe I just had funny bolts tho, dont forget to short out the inhibitor otherwise u wont be goin anywhere,

they fill out your form and stick it in a filing cabinet... never to be seen again... you know what REALLY pisses me and probably you off??? the fact it was pointless to break all the windows?!

nice.

sorry man, feel ya pain, im up to break in no.3 if I get 5 on my stamped card they steal my whole car!

just to add to that, I had problems with my insurance and im not even very low, (obviously my sig isnt a good indicator)
