    BMW 320i 1987 4dr Manual

    all BMW boxes have reverse top left DL has 1st down on the left instead of up on the left (if that makes sense) ie. 2nd to 3rd is a straight gearchange
  3. uh..no ^^ i have the iS power haha im not that bad. am i? oh dear. awfully sorry chaps

    BMW 320i 1987 4dr Manual

    would seriously doubt its a dogleg. DL is 245 anyway. plus they only came on the 323i and even then it was rare. the whole shift pattern is completely different from H pattern...you should notice it. stock to slightly modded 2.5 should be fine with the 240, wouldnt worry about longevity
  5. badass....i look forward to turbo races!
  6. really? that tight? you sure its in correctly? I THINK the e28 rad is thinner..talk to sam he has been research this for ages (Rick James)
  7. AFAIK you need the e36 arms and the e34 m50 sump those are the mounting arms, the only e28 bits you need are the actual rubber mount..some confusion there, the e28 stuff is from a different engine, cant see on earth why you would use them. do they even bolt up to the block?

    E30 333i

    graeme, you cant bang the firewall out...feel behind the dash and see how close the brake bar is to the firewall...probably have about <5mm clearance? im not a fan, its simply more weight in the front of the car, where the m20 is too heavy anyway 4 cylinder for life, thats why they raced that one!
  9. LuK clutches have treated me well...they seem to work fine and last decently. cheap anyway
  10. very easily. search. or look at rego stickers and notice how different the cars are from 83-87 and 88+
  11. hmmm 160gig classic thats me sorted they having a fat masty over the new ipod stuff here

    M325

    yeah the option sheet tells the story, the VIN doesnt list as anything other than a 325i.
  13. i still dont understand why they are better....i can understand the whole drag n drop thing is cool and handy, but not really that ground breaking. hard to change if your using to ctrl x ctrl v. and windows hardly seems as bad as everyone makes out...vista will only get better too. might take some time to develop but it will improve. havent used it yet however so cant judge. and gaming is easier with windows...you can game on a mac but the macbook pros have average vid cards and you need boot camp. along with being many ££ more... are their servers more stable? or something? that would help i imagine....we occasionally have server issues at work, however these comps are kinda sh*t anyway. i do like the idea of an apple network that just works, i can remember countless issues andy and i have had with PCs getting a network setup.

    Glenn: 5 Lug ideas

    haha, i mean i shouldnt worry too much about cars, as i cant do anything about them! when i do get back and do the turbo, might have it as an open source BS project, where suggestions are welcomed? however, i wil probably end up doing what i want anyway haha so glad i have moved house, the place i was staying had a mint mtech 2 with 16" RS'...that was tough!

    Glenn: 5 Lug ideas

    hmm interesting... im just curious as it would enable me wheel choice (i want a 16" 3 piece weave, the only one i have found is £1500 compomotive...i know there is more) but it seems far too expensive to get 5 lug...am going to need brake upgrades too and would prefer alloy calipers to save weight or i could just stop mucking around with cars! new place is nice, will take some photos up to show you guys

    Productivity

    i love being at work notice my careful arrangement of my icons along the road
  17. haha, and another thing. andy, turbo vs gallardo? isnt the gallardo 500hp? its a wee bit unfair haha. might have to work on that though haha
  18. what sort of graphics card does the macbook pro come with? to at the price of the 17" pro, i can get an alienware SLi with 2x 512mb cards
  19. but why are they just better? when i was using my cousins one i just found it frustrating to use, has some cool little features but nothing that blew my mind and made me wish i had one. windows has its foibles but nothing terrible i find. i am interested too as i would consider a mac in my upcoming purchase, however for the cost i just cant see what is so great about them, and i did research a bit and use one for two weeks
  20. injectors do need to have some headroom however, they arent really designed to run at 95% duty cycle like the stock ones seem to. i could be wrong here however as it has been a while! you could be right about the age of them too. personally, i really wouldnt bother mucking around with minor power mods..they cost far to much for the actual gain you get out of them
