A commodore SS with a rotary in it, is still a commodore SS. An M3 with a B25 in it, is still an M3.

Probably got a sh*t load of abusive calls and had to prove its an M50

Ended up buying all 3 from PelicanParts in the states. Should have them in a couple of weeks. Cheers for everyones help, pity no one had any kicking around.

I have a pair of good foglights, no bracket though. Only willing to sell as a pair, let me know if they are of any use (PM me if keen).

FTFY

such a shame, looks like a REAL good condition body and interior. Love the color too.

i seem to remember a while ago there was an early M3 that someone had taken the engine from for some reason and swapped in a 2.5 (or 2.8) and all associated harness/gauges. It must be this one, becuase yes the cluster is not an M3 cluster (white needles, no M logo, and consumption gauge instead of oil temp) but the rest of the car is M3 sort of spec (hifi audio, full OBC, vaders)

blocking the carb throat with a rag whilst the engine is running, and before it dies pull the rag away and open it up. rinse and repeat? Apparently it helps suck crap through the jets, unblocking them.

Good way to get your windows smashed in next time you pull up at the lights down here. Wanker.

I think i got it from BNT last time Unless the diff is a plate LSD it probably doesnt matter a hell of a lot which diff oil you use IMO.

Yep, sorry guys, all picked up and gone to a fellow Bimmersporter.

Undecided, lots of test driving to be done before i decide. Looking at R32/R33 GTR, MK5 Golf GTi or R32, Mazdaspeed Axela/MPS, or maybe a W211 E55 AMG.

Yup, sucks, full on ///M tax on these parts >_< The TDC sensor is B30 specific too, which makes it even less common. Sorry, which one is Geoff?

Could even do with just testing the TDC on the front of the motor first (above the vanos unit, right at the top front), as i have a hunch this is whats causing my problem but i dont want to spend $200 to get the part from Germany, and have it not fix the problem, and the part is non-returnable.

yeah sorry guys, much interest and the whole lot is due to be picked up tomorrow. Cheers.

Hard to find a pic, but the above one is for a non msport model, the msport one looks like the single pipe version of the M5 muffler

Sold pending payment/pickup.

ah thats a shame, thanks for checking anyway. Mine all look like this, with slight variations in the plugs.

Hey, TDC sensor is 12141401888 Intake cam is 12141401889 exhaust cam is 12141401890 Wont need the sensors for long, easy to get in and out on my car and testing is non-destructive.

Hi I urgently need to borrow the cam angle sensors from an S50B30 M3, prefer all 3 (intake, exhaust and TDC), but TDC would be a great start. Im having an issue that reports back as one of the sensors and i need to pop a good sensor in to test and see if the issue and code go away, before i go ordering sensors at $200 a pop. Will pay postage here and back if not local, and will pay for time.

Oh, also have the cowl panel to suit a coupe. Like this, comes with new clips

Forgot to mention too, added bonus of it all being in NZ already, had to wait 3 weeks for a couple of the seals to come in from the motherland.

As per the title. i recently purchased new seals to suit the rear windscreen and both rear vent windows for my E36, but im not going to bother fitting them before selling the car so wanted to see if anyone here wants to refresh their E36 before i send them onto tardme. brand new, genuine, unused from Jeff Gray. Still in packs. Prefer to sell as a set for all 3 windows, or at least both side windows and sell the rear separate. To suit coupe only. pricing will be below RRP, so some good savings to be had. PM if interested, can send nationwide for a fee (prefer pickup if possible though due to size)

Then why does anyone consider the E34 to be a classic?

It still runs, idles OK, maybe a little rough and can be driven but it misfires badly and almost cuts out under load. The code DIS gave specifically said Camshaft sensor, and said the camshaft position was not plausible. Plugs are OK, coils although old appear OK. Cleared codes, went for a drive and sure enough the camshaft sensor error returned. I think i can eliminate the intake cam sensor (behind the sprocket) becuase it gave an accurate reading when i did the vanos test yesterday. Its either the sensor on the front or the sensor on the exhaust cam. If i can get a wiring diagram for the DME and VNC i should be able to narrow down if the DME uses the exhaust sensor, or if its only for the vanos control unit.
