So for m52 engines, is nz's siemens ms41.0 the same DME(in its raw form) as the US siemens ms41.1 but with different coding?

Do NZ m50 engines use the same ecu as US m50 engines

What ecu will you be using? alpha-N tune? opened eyes and found map sensor Feel free to ignore question and surprise me later.

I take it you don't have full insurance and it was your fault?we all make mistakes If so i'd be parting it out myself or just putting it up on trademe. I'm assuming you have a usual "showing its age" condition 318

Like what has all ready been said watch out for cooling system problems and Jatco jerk What do you want from the car?

I was wondering about how this concoction of parts came to be. Would you sell the rear shocks seperate? and how many k's on the shocks

Camber change - shim thickness in mm 0.5 deg - 1.16mm 1.0 deg - 2.63mm 1.5 deg - 4.00mm (just for reference, not recommended) 2.0 deg - 5.44mm (just for reference, do not use) 2.5 deg - 6.81mm (just for reference, do not use) stolen from here http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=995556 Was using them untill I swapped to inverted m3 evo top hats. I'll have to have a hunt for allignment sheet for what the static camber was like then

If it is also his daily i'd imagine its just grassroots stuff.If your comfortable with an engine swap then i'd say drive it till it dies, replace and repeat. Of course give it as much help as it can get with all maintanence up to date and a good cooling system. You wont get far with an open diff and a welded diff isn't really daily driver friendly(some might argue this). Some nice shocks and springs, few bushes and some other bits that'll empty your wallet and you should have a reasonable e30

I'll trade you a set of Schnitzers (same spec as above) for the rk's

Who makes the throttles/what are they from? Was the intake section between the throttles and head designed to be replaceable for tuning the intake length? That is one very good looking engine

Don't take it to heart it seems we aren't very original around here. Myself included Bmw + BBS seems to be an equation that works so we follow it off the bridge (I use "we" very losely so if you feel offended don't group yourself) What suspension do you have? Also what BBS wheels are they?

Out of interest what is the fine for having incorrect plates?

yes

How is the rear rotor attached to the hub? I'm guessing magic

The rod and block destruction is great. Looking forward to see what's going into the m20 build

Are you saying a lower offset wheel will cause you to have less control?Nope I think this is to flash for me. Can you explain the relationship? Is there any figures from a shock dyno on any of these shocks? Are BC or XYZ's rebuildable? Without swapping to a different insert Why not just buy some coilover sleeves from stocks or autolign and make your own?

I've got a set. I think the offset is around 36. One wheel is buckled. I'll get them repaired for the right price

poo brown. What lip

That depends if you are sure it is your shocks that are causing the noises.

4. New rear shock mounts will die quickly with dead shocks.

If you are going bigger why not just go 330 brakes You should match the brake bias to the traction the tyres are getting. So tyre size and compound, spring rate, weight distribution, dampening, body structure, etc should be considered.

Where do you get them for $20?

do you want to sell the rc's Ben?
