e30ftw

I've already done over 1000kms in it lol.

No no. Objective noise tests can only be Carried Out by an LVV certifier. It's not an LVV cert it's a noise test.

Checked power to coil?

I think its more elderly and women (not being sexist or discriminative) that require the help at service stations. I'm sure most of you guys are big enough and ugly enough to fill our own gas. I'm sure the BP karamu road here has a sign that says "as of X this service station is now self service, if you require any assistance please ask at counter" or something. Seems fair enough...

I've never ever had the problem on 2 e30's I've owned,with jamex superlows, king spring superlows and ground controls.

In 4 massive thread.

Take pics. Might get the same bushes soon.

What do the 5mm lower bushes do?

Yep comes off, 2 13mm bolts holding that whole housing to the head. I have a spare entire housing liying around of no use if you want it give me a PM.. Just place your sensors into it, thermostat and bolt it back to the head and join the hoses up.

Agreed. 4 doors can look hot too.

Yeah i couldn't find episode 1 on youtube after I saw this one. Haha both good laughs.

Stumbled upon this , who made it ?? pretty funny lol

Big tip : Wet the floor in your garage / wherever you are spaying it. It will help stop the dust getting blown around and landing up in your paintjob..

Cheers guys. Clutch master cylinder decided to F*ck itself. Quite entertaining driving home without being able to disengage the clutch..

Oh yeah I missed that one too, My e36 connector didn't have that either. It's just the check engine light on the instrument cluster, not all cars have..

Well I'm pretty sure I did all of them except pin 8 on the c101, pin 20 and pin 10.

Don't connect the ones in red on the table. Or did you? Did you do it by pin # ? What year is the e30?

Tis a pretty good buy at that price IMO. Bone stock.

OP telling someone else to get F'd and get a life because they had pointed out it's either NZ new, or it isn't and can't be "99% nz new". Then that person asked the OP 'come repeat that to me in person and not over the internet'.

I had this clutch still pretty much brand new liying around, so I decided to stick with it since I have it.

What sort of charger? Are you mounting it where the A/C would be, With a V belt?

Lets just say the fronts are on the highest they can go haha, maybe one or two winds down.. But It can go down alot there is about 3" of adjuster to wind down on. I had it level tyre (which is about 4 winds down where it is now) to guard and the sump was barely 3 fingers wide of the ground (45-50mm). I can drop the back another 10mm. All I have had in an e30 is a m20b20 - this OWNS it. m20 2.7 stroker - TBH I can't remember, but I kind of think the 2.7 was more rev happy? But overall I'm real happy with it. Sounds mean. Goes very well at any rpm just takes off when you put the foot down. No funny ticks and weird engine noises like an m20 Only thing I hate is having a lightweight flywheel and keeping the F1 stage 3 heavy duty clutch (6puk disc ad heavy duty plate). It's near impossible to town drive with start stop taking off steadily without hoping and getting the jitters! Having windows tinted next thursday too, probably gonna pickup some smoked front indicators too.

yeah it is farkd. It was semi good before I got a mate to paint it (was damaged quite bad), but the 16's with big tyres I borrowed off mark munched it up abit more so it's a lil more noticeable now haha. The keskins have a bit of gap between guard and tyre so they don't rub at all. Clearance at front valance 80mm Sump 58-60mm roughly Front chassis 85mm

The washer bottle is a smaller one from a ford that I have hid behind the bumper/valance. Just looks alot cleaner in the engine bay, also more room for a turbo
