thorburn replied to thorburn's topic in Brakes, Suspension & Steering
Do alert engineering custom build them to suit or do they sell pre made brands? I will give them a call tomorrow any way -

Sorted the fuel level sender. Seems to be a ver common problem for 95-on e36's and is 9 times out of 10 on the fuel pump side. Very easy to fix. Pop out rear seat, unscrew the cover on the drivers side(4 phillips head screws), unplug the level sender and fuel pump wiring, unscrew the cover from the fuel pump. I used a hammer and large flathead to beat it around. Carefully remove the fuel pump where if your lucky you'll see this: Was just a loose wire. Use a wire stripper to expose more wire if necessary and screw back into it's spot. Install is opposite to removal. The smell of petrol went after a short drive If your an idiot this could be dangerous quite happy to not have to carry the safety bottle around. then swaped old for new tensioner bearing, belts and bonnet emblem

is the bonnet fibreglass? Amazing project

Got this car a little while back. It was cheap and as a result it was (and still is) a bit rough. What i will be trying to do is restore it and make it go around corners a little nicer. So far i have: -swaped the standard open 2.92 diff to a 3.15 lsd -changed the rear shocks to bilstein sports -added remus rear muffler -re-sprayed the parcel tray from some sort of pink color to black Here it is now: Things i need to fix: -rubbers around windows -broken fuel gauge. Always shows empty. I think it is the fuel level senders that are the problem -holes in boot from spoiler + flaking paint on boot -respray bumper trim -replace front emblem -tensioner bearing -ac removed -fan clutch -radiator hoses -front brakes -exhaust rattle -clutch

Back pain! Spring install help on E30 please
thorburn replied to Parabolica's topic in Brakes, Suspension & Steering
for the rear springs on the e36 i'd undo the output shafts at the diff. requires an e12 torx socket. not sure how necessary this is -
when i was looking for an e36 it seemed an awful lot of them had lsd's

Clutch is starting to give up and i have always wanted to change the dual mass flywheel. I am looking for advice or experiences with different clutches and flywheels on an e36 I'd rather go over the top with this than not enough so my first thought was to get the uuc stage 2 flywheel and clutch kit. http://www.uucmotorwerks.com/flywheel/LFWLE36SH.htm Otherwise is using an m42 single mass or m20 single mass flywheel with an e36 m3 clutch more than enough for a 328
