Bump - Listing all on TradeMe tonight.....

Yes they are Tech2 specific. Rear: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-E30-3-SERIES-3...=item51abac7019 Front: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-E30-3-SERIES-3...=item3f179c1062

Foglights are the same, Just need to be Facelift.. And the bumper blanking plate things you can buy them off Ebay (not sure if genuine but seen them on there), I sourced proper ones through a forum sponsor a couple years back for my last e30 (SPEEDNZ). They were quite expensive though

^ That is the cruise control stick. Not bad of a price, wonder if they are recaro leather seats.

Make an account on imageshack.us .. So much easier and you can upload in 800x600 then click share and grab the forum link.

Depends if you have the 20p or 15p offset wheels of these. If they are 15p then a 5mm is fine, 20p you'd need 10mm since it's an extra 5mm offset.

Up to date as of 26/6/13 with the following; m20 ICV - $50 m50 ICV - $50 M50B25 set of injectors - $80 51mm front left strut, $30 e36 M50B25 NV Engine loom (auto wiring cut) - $40 Set of e30 Boge shocks for 51mm struts ( I think they are Boge?? - Will be for sale in a couple weeks when I remove from my touring). Stock length, In good condition. Swapping for some Koni adjustables though.. $150 m50 AFM - $50 (Has small crack on plug and crack on a inlet) Right rear Tailight, small crack - $20 + Windows switches, Mint front indicators, side indicators.

Probably because the 316 it's in he's just used the clutch / flywheel he had because it's a single mass. 316i manual and literally swaps just the motor..

From TradeMe? Andy has ETHRTY on his e34....

No I wouldn't do that especially if you have things jammed in there. It moves to fast and that's just lazy and asking for trouble. You can EASILY get a socket on the crank and turn it over slowly as required.

^ Looks like it was listed tonight, around 8:49pm

Looks sick. What did you clean the engine bay with, or was the engine already that clean?

M50B25 would be straight forward, you already have the right gearbox if it's a Getrag240 manual, gearbox sits on the correct angle for the m50 motor in an e30.

What are you looking to spend? A M50/M52 swap is pretty straight forward, if you wanna keep it BMW..

Wheels long gone sorry, Only stuff in first post is what I have left.

bump

I have brand new wheel bearings if you need one, 1 front and 1 rear. Hit me up if you need one, Pretty straight forward to replace, you just need some big sockets. What P Plate did ya get? And did you wire up that Maplight mirror?

You can shorten them by how much shorter the actual spring length is. The captive part applies to both front and rear, if a front shock is too long, the shock can extend so much that the spring sits inside top mount and strut loosly. To shorten the shocks you need to take them to an engineer who can cut then machine a new end on the shock. They will shorten the insert part, then lathe / machine and tap thread on the end so it matches how the top was before it was cut (so you can attach the top mount on again). I used to get them done at a local auto engineer for $40 each, length cut should not matter as it involves the same amount of work cutting it and then re-machining the tip.

You should shorten them for a couple reasons, Mainly to stop the shock bottoming out and also to keep the spring captive (Like when you raise the car, the shock does not extend out so long that the spring ends up loose in the perch) Depends on how much lower though. Up to an inch or two is usually fine. e30 stock height vs super lows is like a 3" + drop and you would definitely need shortened shocks.

Another thing you can see hes bypassed the heater core. He also says it doesn't work. Maybe it leaked at some stage and he's gone and bypassed it? There's always something dodgy with even the seemingly well maintained. Heater core replacement is a hell of a job too as the dash needs to come out. That's if you ever wanted to fix it..
