I have used the re oo1 and found them crap, the re 001R was very good though, infact I swear by them. The RE050 was a good tire too.

Wouldn't touch it. Matt black, dodgy wiring....bonnet and door are out of alignment [bonnet is also white underneath] even has a dirty pod filter on it. Looks like an accident damaged raped E30.

Nothing wrong with a CA18 if it's set up correctly. Not exactly a massive power house, but, a good value for money engine and would be very well suited to an E30. I'd own it!

The 186 and 202 are both terribly depressing, I got the 202 I'm throwing in the E12 [temporary measure] for $180 with a box. I must agree, the Chev isn't as heavy as people expect, it may have alot of iron, but, the cylinder heads are very compact because it hasn't got over head cams and the wiring is actually less than a m10 that came in the e12! Brilliant if you ask me. Manual is nice =D

Cheers! Not much grunt as I say sorry . I can get a 350 revving higher than 6500 if I wanted, I want some real torque. A 350 is going to cost less to build unless I decide to go with 75cc heads. The weight isn't too much of an issue to me. Nothing wrong with pushrods There is no doubting the m60 is a brilliant motor, but not my choice in this case, if I had an e21 it would be a different story

Robbie Williams......

I do love the m60 v8, but, they are more work to set up and to be rude not very grunty. I like my basic old chev motors

Yes, they are terrible.

I agree, should be a barrel of laughs too with 14 inch wheels. I'll throw the 202 in within the next few weeks [and get depressed with it's lack of power/torque] and finally have a mobile, rust free and straight bodied E12. Then the V8 parts buying starts. I have a friend with a 350 chev block I could use, it has a small scar in one bore, so, a 383ci kit may be something to consider. It's either that or buy a "grease pack" 350 and throw new pistons, rings etc into it. Will only cost me $400-500 depending if I go with new pistons or not. Good cheap power!

I thought so, as it had big/little lights like an E28.... I was thinking about gunmetal grey. But I have to think of something that will look nice on the car with standard wheels and bumpers The burgandy is really sexy though.

The orange one is an E28 isn't it?I'm in love with the maroon one and that is one of the top colours on my list, it's bloody yummy

What ever is recommended by BMW?

Quick update, new springs are in the rear. Engine and box are out, I'm sick of the smoking. Diff has new seals in her I have a sh*tty 202 and trimatic floating around, that will be going in until I have the real motor sorted. All of the body work is done, now to prep for paint! I do love a long term project, it lets everything be perfect. Will post up pics when I manage to get the new camera to work. Any suggestions on color choice?

Exactly why it's a fail.....http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-214957859.htm This person has been ripped, or they are useless con-artists

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-233783186.htm hmmmm http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-249309052.htm http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-249481751.htm I like the idea with the turbo set up...but the rest I do not understand. Oh fail, 1600 sohc

They are a very nice car, fun to drive too.

CM5A Lancer gsr is an ok car, easy to live with, easy to service, nice to drive. Enough power to pass people etc. Or an rsk-b4 legacy, or WRX. R33 GTS25T move along comfortably too. There are many options, even a VR4 galant would do the job, not an early 2.0 v6 though...

Should I make the E12 front wheel drive then? I can see the attraction of having a RWD primera, but, it wouldn't be any good. Unless you want something retardedly loose

Yuck, what's wrong with a plain E36 and E36 m3 kit, not poo and duct tape wrapped in fail juice with a gay sticker

So jealous of the s50!

Could have been a hot 186 or maybe a transplanted 202? They tend to sound very very nice, the Torana GT-R sounded absolutely amazing

Style 5's?Why not a 1jz or 2jz? Rb20det's are overweight puss, 350 chev is the ultimate overweight puss! My E12 is straighter than that one. No rust FTW! I better write up a project report one of these days

Throw a V8 in it, I am. What a retard! RB20DET FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I knew I was right!The 328i are absolutely brilliant!

I reckon!
