I am on the lookout for parts from a E24 635csi, I need the following: E12/Early Model Chassis Dog Leg Manual Early Block, late head.

Pics and location please. Does it come with the manual gearbox and flywheel?

Ditched the RS's as everyone seems to be rockin them these days and fitted some 16x7.5 Racing Dynamics.

I have 3 sets of e30 wheels for sale. Let me know if you want more pics. 1. 16x7.5 Borbet type A - ET30. Condition is below average but I have referbed one. Bought these to fit to my e30 but since found a different set of wheels so these have to go. - Wanting $400 2. 14x6 E30 Bottlecaps. Condition is below average. Comes with two toyo semi slicks and two shitty road tyres. I was using these to get my project rolling. - Wanting $80 3. 15x7 Random wheels with unknown offset. Come with slashed tyres and the condition of the wheels is average. I would suspect the offset is around ET25 - Wanting $350

bump - anyone got anything close to tan?

Bump - Anyone got anything?

Edit - Sorted

Here is one I got that I wont be using

Just watched it, excellent. I almost felt sad they didn't kill more people....

dibs, pull the trademe auction and I'll pay you $600 minus the fee that you would have paid through trademe

I have some at my parents house, chuck me a PM on how much they are worth to you.

Finished off the engine last week, had to replace 2 injectors to get it running perfectly. Took it for a drive up and down the road and the auto doesn't seem to be changing gear, will that be because I have no selector so its thinking its neutral all the time? Either way I think a manual conversion might be needed Here are some pics but nothing much has changed in terms of looks.

Do it. Josh and I will help you with the conversion.

Guides were fine as far as I could tell, I have it all back together now and turned it over last night. Doesn't have fuel in so it didn't start but should I be worried if the valve train is dead silent, all other e30's I have had sound like a sewing machine. Will chuck some fuel in it tonight and see what happens.

It requires a small bit of pipe to be welded onto both perches to raise the mounting perches, then a steel mounting plate needs to be welded on top of the pipe either side. IIRC The steel pipe is about 3cm on the exhaust side and 2cm on the inlet side. I would suggest getting the correct mounts rather than using my method. In saying that, even though the Izuzu mounts are rubber they are stiff as and cheap to replace.

Update. I have completed rebuilding the head which meant I had to replace lots of parts (mainly bent valves and broken rockers) and anything that wasn't replaced was cleaned thoroughly. Also replaced the waterpump and timing belt. Hopefully will have it running later this week.

They make it sit perfectly but it would be easier for you just to get the right mounts as the izuzu ones required a bit of fabrication to get them at the right height.

+1 for the mount shop, I am using Izuzu bighorn mounts on my e30s50 conversion.

Really? I have a straight pipe intake and exhaust with an Autronic ECU and have never had any fueling issues. Its only ever doing track duty too.

Managed to drop 0.5 of a second from the final corner to Turn 2 in the last session due to finding some new limits. That leaves me around a low 1:13. I am happy with this as the slicks are far past the use by doing about ~500 laps from ~60 heat cycles at Hampton and Taupo. edit - I should state that I didn't just drive faster to drop the time, it involved stiffer front springs, more toe out and more rear brake. This meant I could brake later, turn in easier and the stiffer front springs reduced some of the oversteer when putting the power down mid corner.

Bump - Anyone know where I might be able to find one? Any pickapart e30's with a beige carpet?

What are you doing for tyre's these days? I was looking at getting some new Hankook F200 Slicks for next season in the Open Class.

I'll be driving like a an old lady while I test some new springs, it will be interesting to see what the difference is between us now.

If you widen all 4 I'll buy your 1.5" lips.
