-
Why would they only wind it back such little amounts? sorry if its a dumb question but wouldnt you wind it back like 10,000k not 3 000?
-
Going from a big 7 series you would probialy find the 540 quite chuckable being smaller in size that the 7, but ultimately the 330 will handle better, my granddad has a 330 and its a very quick car and handles amazingly.

My E30 325i turbo project
Sammy J replied to tiripiri's topic in Forced Induction & Performance Tuning
you have a beautiful car there mate, good luck with the project, im about to undertake the same project. it all depends on how much HP you want and how big your budget is. -
A little lower would make it look nicer, just an idea.
-

ball pak figure for complete manuel conversion? my mate is keen
-
thanks for all your comments guys, it really makes it all worth it
-
i know the 320 tourings had the big 325 struts and stuff in the front but im not 100% sure sorry
-
yeh we sorta got a bit carried away on the whole car really, its got hotchkis tubular suspension arms, bag sway bars front and rear, solid chassis and body mounts, air ride with adjustable shocks, willwood four pot drilled brakes all round (rear converted from drums), smaller booster, quick steering box, custom side lights and mirrors and man the list goes on but whats so different about ours is the interior being full leather with eletric porche seats in front and 6 series coupe bmw seats in a custom made frame thing in the back. oh and autometer gagues with carbonfibre dash, and inserts where all the wood trim used to be. Those rs 396's are a tough car mate, we seriously thought about 1st gen but dad wanted 2nd and i wasnt going to complain.
-
got a batty race car which is used for targas mainly but its a great handeling car, amazing to drive if u know how but it just hangs on round corners and is very quick with the race motor but are fast standard anyway
-
well it was my idea to do a camaro and its sorta more of a tough boys car but he was as keen as i was cause he always wanted one since he was a kid. It took dad and i two years to completly rebuild it like every nut and bolt is new. Aww yeh? ok that would be good mate id love to see i have a 85 dodge ram van witha a 6litre hemi v8 in it which we use for towing the race cars and doing targas with. also just sold a c10 chevy which had a 454 big block in it and a 2500 silverado. next project is either an e-type jag of a jensen interceptor or we are quite keen to do a manuel v8 2 door e30 to the same standard or a 630 with all modern running gear.
-
yeah it sure is mate. its a beautiful engine. brand new with all the good bits on it (roller rockers, four bolt mains and alloy heads) its running a mild tune at the moment for running i in (only done 34 miles) but it sould bee 750hp and 800 ish ft/lbs of torque once she is run in and tuned properly on a dyno. We will be taking it to Auckland for shows at some point and id be happy to take you guys for a ride if anyone is keen. ill keep you posted when we are going up
-
its actually a custom color we had made up but in some lights it looks black but when the sun gets on it you see almost green/gold. has anyone noticed the subtle different color stripes?
-
yeah mate brand new 502 is amazing, its got a 4 speed overdrive trans too so its reallg good ratios. it will be about 750hp and 800ft/lbs of torque once its run in and tuned. It was a wee bit of work Ie choosing the right shape light and then getting it to look right but we did led lights all round the car so it was well worth the effort
