    318 solid brake discs arent very good. Stopping from 100kph* in a hurry kills them very quickly.*may or may not actually be 100kph.

    Got it going last night. Didnt get around to getting a video, it was late and dark etc. Lengthened the driveshaft, the ZF box is really short: Made a new bush up for the driveshaft since the old one fell apart when we took it out to lengthen it: The gearbox crossmember made up, just test fitting it, painted it later: Lets make the exhaust. Muffler was specially made. 2.5": Went for a drive last night, probally did around 100km and nothing fell off or broke so all seems to be good.

    It was pretty much like that in the first place, bit of degreaser tho. YepShould be time to start it today, which should be interesting.

    Turned out very good.
  12. I wasnt sure if 6.5k is cheap. But I was under the impression you could get a manual e36 coupe 325 for around 5k.

    A friends project ive been helping with the last few days. Currently: M52 2.8 alloy block M50b25 NV head Compression ratio is somewhere around 11:1 (cant remember exact) ODB1 ZF gearbox 2 door 318 Largest radiator we can fit in there (from e36) Adjustable rear bias valve for rear brakes New engine seems to be similar weight to the old m40, possilby lighter, car seems to sit a bit higher with new engine in it. Engine is sitting in there, gearbox crossmember has been made, almost completely wired up. Old engine out, engine bay cleaned: Trying to get a pic of the positive camber without the engine, didnt show up too well: Mmmm, shiny: Yeah... doing somthing. Just chilling: Westside up in here: Getting ready to chuck da b!tch in: Up up and: In: My mate shortened the drive shaft today, and the shifter linkages have been shortened and rotated by another mate. I will go around and finish the wiring sometime. A few little things to do like sorting the brakes, welding the diff, turning the rear bias right down and dropping a skud.
  15. Well the S38 is kind of based off the m30. Just like the s14 off the m10, and the s50 off the m50 etc.so yeah..
  16. And I bet when you got your license you went down to the local cop shop, jumped in the car with the copper, drove around the car park 3 times. Reversed back into the car park, and got your full license straight away. You probally then went and I got blind drunk and drove around all weekend, it was alright because the cops didnt care and you could get away with it..
  17. I think you misinterpreted his post.Shall we speak ukraineian (spelling?) instead?
  18. Dunno. But painting things green, in matts thread about painting things green, and using matts paint.
  19. The holes on them are slotted, which I didnt think was very good. But other than that they are pretty good. Im not sure if I can notice any difference at all tho.For the price, you cant really go wrong.
