Lol My boss did the same. She quit, had her baby, then about a couple weeks after she started smoking again. Her partner doesn't even know, cos she only casually smokes at work, even comes in on her day offs to have a ciggy. Stupid.

So you finally got rid of it eh.

^ Hahahaha. And lol to Emily's "stay with a bf".

2 great looking cars. Have to say I like the silver one better though, The kit makes it look alot better.

Have you done the obvious and checked fuses? Fuse 10 in particular?

I wouldn't want it. Even if it is pretty quick, It's ugly.

CV's don't like skids either. I think I see a pattern ?

There is the front crank wheel. This runs the alternator belt. There is another 2 infront of it, but that part is separate, which runs the other belts. You can take it off. Many times I have put the crank wheel back on without that front bit, which meant taking 6 bolts out and putting that other bit on again. Fuuuu.

No worries. Best wishes from John and the team.

You're welcome.

Um no. There is a second piece which only is needed for PS and A/C belts. If you have ever taken the front of an m20 apart you would know this. And the Alternator/ waterpump belt runs right off the crank wheel. Sorry bud.

You can actually think of it this way, Removing rotating mass off the crank (i.e shaving down the flywheel) all makes an improvement to engine response. Works front and rear of engine. But front doesn't have as much things to delete, Except power steering and A.C, I guess you could remove that pulley that runs the A/C and P/S belts off the front dampner, that would be another subtle reduction in rotating mass on the crank.. But it's F all so don't expect a miracle lol.

You have 10 minutes.

Go for burn and let us know the verdict please.

Was the driveshaft split into the 2 separate parts? If not you don't need to worry, driveshaft only turns when the car is moving too btw. And it only causes vibration. If it was split into 2 pieces, Make sure the u-joints are the same way front and rear, just line them up cos thats how they need to be.

I actually prefer no one touching my car tbh, But thus only I can be blamed for the mess.

My mate removed mine. I kinda wish I still had it some days but meh. Ya get over it. Tidyness is key.

Haha. My e30 had AC that I removed all piping to the firewall etc, Made no difference from what I remember. 9 Months off the road actually. Epic.

You connected your heater pipes wrong on the firewall buddy. Barking up the wrong tree.

Looking for both upper and lower cover on m40 e30's against the firewall.

Got any m40 loom covers by any chance? upper and lower.

Have you seen how much my front valance was massacred just to fit the front mount? Weight reduction Motherf*cker.

Thats the last thing he needs Lol.

That one is old though, just swapped into a e30 m3. This one had a massive build thread, amazing the amount of work gone into it..

I've taken wheels in there before with punctured tyres, they repair them for free. But don't take priority on them, So don't be surprised if you have to wait all day.
