westy 614 Report post Posted July 2, 2006 Im looking for an e30 starter motor, preferably from a facelift. A stuffed one with a good pinion would be ideal,otherwise a cheapy would be sweet. Thank you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gus 5 Report post Posted July 3, 2006 how bout one from an m40? cheers Darren0211645663 it might work, if its from a manual...it seems to be more the pinion tooth spacing difference between auto and manual Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westy 614 Report post Posted July 3, 2006 Yeah, its a fine toothed one,teeth are closer together for the flywheel that has approx 139 teeth. Will call tomorrow Darren. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted July 5, 2006 Hi, you guys sure that manual and auto are different? I've just dropped the ring gear from my auto on top of the manual and they match perfectly, I've got both in pieces at the moment, in the middle of race car build, the teeth numbers and size are the same.
