    E30 bits

    Did you have the metal clutch line from master to slave that goes around firewall?
  2. Needs to be the 25mm one from a 750il. It only has 2 outputs so technically will only fit an Abs equipped e30. You would need a brake line T piece for the fronts on a nonABS.
  3. Looks nice and tidy and I agree with you that it's hard to find a tidy unbutchered e30 these days. However, the ACS pin striping, ACS badge and 'is' badge seem abit tacky to me. If it had an ACS kit maybe...
  4. Use Plastidip, that way you can peel it off if you change your mind.
  5. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=428370733978245&set=gm.742051479198004&type=1&theater
  6. Pair of brand new OEM e30 rotors from UUC Motorwerks, with HAWK Ceramic pads. $250 shipped, ono.
  7. We all pretend we own BMW's, none of us actually do though
  8. It's not hard, just a pain in the ass. Especially if you have torx head bolts. Just remove the intake boot and all that stuff and you should be able to get an extension bar with a socket on the bolt end easily. I try to drop a ring spanner on the back side nut from the top against the firewall, the lower one can be done from underneath.
  9. Just remembered I took a photo and sent it to a mate when I was pealing the black off - 3 were fully back to silver and one was like this that I was going to finish on Sunday morning. (Holding out hope lol)
  10. Weekend just been? Nah I'm in Brooklyn,. Definitely would have been targeted or someone had a reason to come by here. Wheels were stupidly outside though, my fault. E30 safely locked in the garage.
  11. Yeah, I've got a jack and bricks in my boot to claim them back. And an axe for measure.
  12. Nah not those, Mine were stolen just last night between 7pm and 8am sometime. Those have the centercaps and silver rivets (Not easy to change on ESM wheels, you need their specific ones) I've already checked that page and the typical Hustle Live's
  13. So some A-Hole has stolen my set of ESM 002R's, Silver with gold rivets. Was in the process of removing the plasti-dip and they were sitting out the front leaning against the wall (Not visible to the road anyway). Specifics: -All Kingstar 205/45/16 tyres (Yes cheap, bought the wheels and tyres new 2 years ago) -No center caps, I have these still as they were inside - 4X100 ONLY, Not multfit - Make make it more ovbious -Gold rivets - Again this should make it more obvious -Curbing/scuffing on the rears and abit on the tyres too -ESM Wheels are E30 Center bore, not sure if that limits what they can fit If anyone sees them around Wellington or for sale underground somewhere I'm very interested to know. Not happy! Don't have any pics with gold rivets however and they just look like every other RS Rep wheel
  14. Wouldn't run the car without that rocker shaft tab. If the shafts rotate the rocker locking tabs come off and the rockers will slide side to side and f**k sh*t up. Had it happen once but was lucky enough to not have any damage. Bastard of a job to fix though.

    E30 M52 Swap

    Will has summed it up quite well. I went with a G240 from an e30 m40/m42. This gearbox combo doesn;t require any shifter or cross member modification as it sits on the right angle and fits using E30 320i shifter / driveshaft. I find it takes the abuse quite well... IMO it is perfectly fine for a daily. M20 flywheel, Get the rear side skimmed as it slightly grazes the pan - best to get it lightened while you are at it. If you can get all the EWS, go that route. i went with an EWS deleted ECU, Very simple to get it working like this but it does add a bit extra for the convenience!
  16. I'll make it easier for you, give me one of them s50's

    Cleaned it

    One of my favourite e30's. Where did the Airbox come from? Custom?
  18. Tidiest e30 I have seen in a long time.
  19. A few e36s at pick a part. Should be cheap too.
  20. Nice e30! I picked up some spring pads of trademe, Urethane 8mm thick ones..They were listed down as universal fitting alot of other cars other than e30, Holdens etc but fit the e30 perfectly. Used it sandwiched with the OEM rubber ones to lift the rear on mine. $25 for a pair IIRC, Can't see them on there at the moment though.
