deane30 30 Report post Posted October 19, 2008 When you drain coolant from an e30 320i facelift do you need to use the block drain plug or can you just use the drainplug/hose on the radiator? I'm wanting to flush the radiator Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

320guy 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2008 In a word. No. It wont bolt up. Getrag 260 can be made to fit. Or else you will need to find a ZF 5 speed from e36. How much did you score your M50 for and what are you planning to do before you turb it? Actually a 240 will fit the m50, and if the m50 is in a E30 will fit even better then the 260. (as the shifter lines up correctly) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenday-rulz21 4 Report post Posted December 20, 2008 Just a quick question, what the name of the double sided tape some of you use to stick your germanplates onto your car. And where you can get it. Had a quick look down the road but they didn't seem to have any suitable tape. Cheers, Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cale 36 Report post Posted December 20, 2008 Hardware stores- Bunnings, Hammer Hardware, Placemakers etc? Just make sure you buy (as above) the foam type Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenday-rulz21 4 Report post Posted December 20, 2008 Yea, they didn't have the foam tape. The noob I talked to didn't even know what I meant when I asked if they had the foam type double sided tape. He asked for a brand or name so I thought Id ask here. I'll just go into mitre 10 mega tomorrow and try find some. Cheers for the quick responses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would definitely take you up on that offer but I don't know if I will be able to make it out to Botany before Christmas. Appreciate it though Glenn.
