    318i vrs 325i purchase

    Pictures of my mom's 1989 E30 325i when we bought it with 75,000kms on it. It is dirty too, but you can't hide that the car is 20 years old. Working on them and cleaning them up is half the fun of owning them. Pics of my 1991 E30 318i with 262,000kms on it. It didn't come that way. You...

    I've never heard of this being a well known problem with the M30. Who told you it's leaking? Externally, or are you burning it off, or is it going into your coolant?

    318i vrs 325i purchase

    It's very easy to turn a odometer back on these cars, not to say it doesn't have 58,000kms. I think you'd be very pleased with the 318i. Bring me a pint of blueberries, and I'd be glad to go look at it with you if it's still for sale.[thumb]

    Actually, I would suggest using your factory E30 engine harness engine harness with the M30... you'll need to lengthen some wires for injectors, but that way it'll hook right up to the chassis harness.

    In General Conclusion

    Factory shops, with technicians, not mechanics... Private specialty shops are plentiful around here for VW/Audi, Volvo, BMW, Jaguar, etc. and never cost as much as dealerships, and don't do the job properly anyways.

    e30 engine conversion (slow process thread)

    Get a measurement on the bearing and on that lip. Too bad the old one wasn't in there to compare... I would think that it would stop once it hits the lip... other wise, it's not that hard to pull back out again (might cost you the bearing) ...maybe Cliff will pipe up here with the answer.

    No, of course not... no-one takes 90's model cars to dealers for repairs, do they?

    okay, well, Cliff isn't looking... 1) South Africa I believe had the M30 with the 3.3, or 3.5, but as far as I know, Alpina also put that engine (with their own tweakes) into the E30, including the M3). 2) I don't know, it's in the manual... 3) Z1 4)not too sure.... 225/35/17's? 5)I thought...
