U-jays can seize up , but that would be noticable at certain speeds etc. gearlever shifter rod isn't upside down is it?? , rubbing on the coupling??

pfl and painted black

use all the face lift sensors , electrics , front damper hub etc etc , only use the old block , and manifolds should be ok

just use the bare engine block and manifolds. use all your original electrics that are in the car etc. i think the early engine may have higher compression pistons?? what happened to the m50b25 conversion??

well done , hope you like it . what was the drive down like.

yea good choice for bang for buck , i got another 16-18rwkw and about 40Nm more with the millar maf on my M5 m88 engine . sounds nice too.

yup , i have getrag from a 93 325i in my 96 328i with super charger . no problems done 20,000km so far. gearboxes look the same as a 316i 318i 318is 318ti. but i dont know if i would push it with 300-350-400hp etc??

happy birthday , young fellow

just a lighter solid flywheel . my car does it and others that i have used a light flywheel in . not the dual mass type. its just the gears chattering on the lay shaft when no load is on them

quite comon , alwso will depend on how low your car idles at what does it idle at?? was teh a/c on , headlights on etc?? if it has a lighter flywheel that will also cause it to rattle a little.

looking a light blue bumper or just the bumper cover etc. alaska blue metalic . face lift or early type , anyone got one laying about?? like this

yes have doors etc. also have a mate with dogleg box in a e28 528i with a 3.5l engine he might swap it out for a std overdrive box , if you offer him enough

yes that will happen as the auto gearbox weigh heaps more than the manual gearboxes. all the cars i have converted e36 e34 etc all have lifted up at the front when you order springs from bmw , they have a options list of things to be ticked if you r car has a/c , sunroof , coupe or sedan , towbar , auto , manual , mtec kit etc etc then it works out the spring rates

have some but not a full set

check for camshaft wear , very comon on m30 engines , oil spray rail bolts come loose , and lack of oiling to the camshaft. normally front lobes are the worse. if there is a grove in the lobes then you will need a new camshaft. also when doing the valve asjustment , do it when engine is stone cold. and should be tight fit with the feeler gauges but not dragging too much

i had one the other day where i had to replace the wire , but most are just broken

sits under the spark plug lead cover at the back

ask peter he races a green 2002 http://www.bimmersport.co.nz/forums/index.php?showuser=1820

hi i wasn't saying yours has a leaky head gasket.yes you should get a tk test done to see if any gases getting into the coolant system. all plastic coolant pipes and any plastic parts in the coolant system should be changed about every 100,000km or 10years etc, also check viscous fan clutch coupling , water pump , thermostat and radiator. also check the operation of the 2 speed aux fan. electric water valve/tap for the heater system??

inside heater core .have seen cars with 68k have the head gasket go. can be due to one ot 2 overheating issues which can weaken it , or corrsion with age etc

so they are , funny touring doors are longer at the top edge. yes have some if needed

touring are different to sedan ones.so which type do you need??

chainn tensioner and cap and some not so important part ,something to do with the spark plug leads from memory?? part 21,22, 23 whats the part number on the blue bit??

yes and yesjust call me
