Hi all I made a start on my e30 M30B35 swap today, so thought I'd better start on a project thread for it. Small steps at the moment, but I have collected all the bits I need for the swap so hopefully it will be done sometime in January (yeah - I know... probably famous last words). I'm also...
I bought my 318is in January of 2008, from someone who I have recently found out is a member here, and since then I have spent a large amount of time and money changing it greatly from stock. Originally I planned a full “M3enization” with full chroming of everything! But since finding a number of...
Took my 325e for it's first drive tonight as a Turbo manual. Couldn't lean on it at all because the injectors are still standard and it only has a rough tune in it, but I came back with such a huge grin on my face! It feels so much livelier and torquier then the standard 325e auto even as it is...
Well it's about time for a bit more power. The car is being built this time to be fast, and quiet. We're taking out the old supercharged M44 and replacing it with a 2.8L M52 and whacking a turbo on it. Still going to be a daily driver, so we're not going too crazy with it, even tho it's spec'd...
Guilty! For the majority of members who don’t know about my E30 I thought it was about time that I started a diary on my attempts to make my 323i a tarmac rally car. Current list of Modifications already done to the car: Suspension • KW variant 2 coilovers • Eibach adjustable sway bars...
hi, how about that ride in hey? i guess that's why they call it sin city enough messing around,, i have decided to start a new project thread as i like the title better than 'project bogan' lol so on to the details: 1990 e30 318i auto m40 4 door,
Right... where to start? Well I'm Damo and have been lurking around here for the best part of a year and this is my car - a late 93 325i coupe. Before I launch into what's happening with this car it'll probably help explain my goals and motivation to give you a brief description of my...
Friday 13th 2012, engine dies at Winton. Spun a bearing. Oil filter full of bits of bearing. Poor show. Next project. Complete engine rebuild. At this time there's no point messing about, complete rebuild to some stronger specs. No point rebuilding to standard spec, might as well tweak a few...
Well, finally today i took some photos of the old girl, so i thought she was worthy of a topic now that most of it's completed and on the road registered Ok, the story It all started when i was scouring ebay for a cheap car to use until i had the funds to upgrade to something better, as i had...
hey im ben im 21 and just getting into bmws, this is my second car a 1990 318iS bought last year for $2600 with 3months rego. need to change a few bits to make me happy but is a long term project as most of my time goes into the mini i have. First on the list is wheels definatly not a fan of...
I suppose its probably a good time to document the progress of my car, seeing as I am about to get it back at a pretty much finished state, after 3.5 years. The beginning It was a spur of the moment visit, walked around the bmw dealer and saw the E36 sitting there in the front, new and...
2008 E92 M3 :) I found this car on carsales from a dealer in Vic, and as it goes, I was in Qld at the time, and the car was up here. I only managed to have a quick look at it on the truck before it left the depot. Andreas did a PPI on it for me, and there really wasn't anything to put me off,...
Thought I'd restart my thread as the information is all over the shop. The story begins when I decided to sell my old car, a 1995 BMW 740iL. Whilst I loved that car (and still miss it) it simply was not the car a 20-something year old wanted to drive, especially in motor sport events. So with...
After a relatively good season tracking the 325iS, the time has come to retire the old girl which is still in far too nice a condition to strip and throw around on a track. Simon(M) had generously offered the option for me to share his car (99) on sprint days next season. The alternative...
Hey there. as some may already know ive got hold of an e34 525i in manual with a m20b25. Ive never owned one of these engines and they are nice and sweet with a turbine like smoothness. First was to make it look a little better as the 15"bottletops dont do it for me. I got hold of a set of...
Started a new thread cause i cant edit the old one + its full of junk havent got a pic of the new ride height yet.. Specs: 1984 323i w 250,000kms Getrag 260 5spd driveline:
Here is some pictures of the steering rack conversion I've just done. The new rack was taken from a '94 318i. Its about 3.5 turns lock to lock, the original e30 rack was about 4 turns lock to lock. The new e36 rack is the one in front, you can see that appart from the hydraulic lines, they...
Hey all, I think it’s about time I did a members page. Not really a project, as I drive it daily, but there will always be improvements over time - got a few plans in mind ;-) This is my 2001 E39 525i Msport. I’ve had it around 5 months now. It’s my first BMW and my expectations have been...
Ive been lazy of late with no pics. The old girl is starting to look nice. It drives good in traffic, but the lack of working AC with black on black really sucks on a hot day. Enjoy.
Hi , I've just joined the forum , I am building a BMW E30 325 5 speed into a EVO / WRX beating car for the 2010 NSW State Rally Championship. I gave them all a fright ( 1st in class P3 & 6th O/rite overall ) in 07 with my 2TG 79 mod KE55 Corolla coupe , and now with a better rear end and more...
Well folks. I just couldn't help myself when V put up the link in the cars FS that need mentioning thread. Just out of pure curiosity got in contact with parramatta prestege and the "M6" that was advertised that looked like a scam was actually very tidy with low km's full rhd conversion and a...
Well it's been about 2 months since my beloved e30 got written off and it's time to introduce the new project. Uni is starting to get pretty busy now I'm into the back half of 3rd year, how inconsiderate of it! So this will be a slow project and nothing very exciting will be going on but...
Well I believe this is the standard process.... swap a motor, crap on about it on 'teh internets' I will use the following equation: + + maybe =
Hi all.... This is the story of my little E30 John Player Special. I picked up the car for a steal around 6 1/2 years ago. The car was in good condition but had 280,000 km's on the clock.. The engine was tired and in need of some TLC. I have put around 1500 km's a year on the clock since...
