I wouldnt recommend taking out the intake trumpet,if you test it on the dyno im sure you will see negative gains from it

Welcome mate, excellent first post! You should come along to the Chch Bimmersport bbq thats comming up. Riley

Very nice job

That will look tough! Whats your D1spec engine going to be then?

Great website aye. Oh an e36 + lexus v8 would be alot of fun to. I must say mines a blast to drive lol. There is a few e36s with v8 conversions but the thing is here in NZ is there is much more knowledge on e30s and a bigger following on them as well. I hope you go ahead with the conversion because it will be a special car and alot of fun

Welcome mate, if your looking at doing a engine conversion be prepared to spend some $$$$ but its worth it trust me

It can be done lol, jump onto www.lextreme.com for alot of info that will help heaps

diablo23 Mentioned on the Felgen garage post that "yeah but havin a low bodykit and having the car standard height just looks cheap and nasty" I think thats totally wrong,they are the best looking cars around in my opinion

I really like that touring

I think this looks bloody awesome, and should inspire you e36 boys a little. complete opposite of cheap and nasty

Yes it was hard times without this forum lol

Its not cheap thats for sure, makes me feel a little better bout how much ive spent on mine lol. Your car is awesome though, id love to go for a ride in it when its all done

Ill get Frank to buy one lol

That thing is going to fly

Looking good Andy, very interested in the results

EDIRTYS still looking good rolling on bottles

Bump as ive changed what im after

Is the 2l m20 carb engine the same as the injected engine? obviously without the intake manifold

Bump for a good price

wHOA 20s on an e36 look massive

As above ^ got a mate whos wanting a m20 2litre engine as his has poked its self. Also ive been told the m20 carb engine has the same setup as the injected engine without the intake manifold can anyone confirm this? Cheers Riley

Hmmmm Ill take all you comments into consideration guys thankyou so much. Im going to look into the IE camber/toe kit as well

No i havint checked the corner weights,i should though it would be interesting. There is a fair bit of camber on the rear, ive got a set of urethane adj subframe bushs that ill fit soon, that should help. Running 16x7.5 Schnitzers with 225/45/16s Toyo T1RS All round Do you think the sway bars will be a waste of time

No the rear end came out side ways on me on medium throttle at 130kph, I snap corrected it. I feel Its more a camber issue and less grip on the rear, and it was in the damp, e30s a notoriously edgy in damp conditions. I dont need stiffer rear springs, mine is setup quite well, esp for traction in the dry. I just need the car to stop loading one side to much through the corner, with stiffer swaybars it should help flatten things out and help keep more tire and power down on the road.

Oh and my car has urethane bushes throughout so this it just the next step
