    Window Motor FR/FL only??? Rear??

    I see no reason why the front would be different from the rear. Don't worry about asking tonnes of questions... we're all doing the same thing with our E30's... the only E30 that doesn't need any work is the one my parents just bought today... 1989 Alpine White 325i... 72,000km!!!! I wish I had...

    engine swap

    that starter wire will be an easy one, I've never played with the injector rail. It's alway little things that mess us up.

    You Call This Art?

    WTF WTF WTF WTF???? I want to crush his head in that thing. Who does that sort of thing in their right mind? I'm sure that Porsche burns oil like crazy, the wipers don't work, the rims had curb rash, cracked windscreen, tired shock absorbers, whining alternator, leaking PS fluid, etc... yeah...

    engine swap

    I've done one m20 swap, and only had a minor vacuum problem. You screwed the big plastic connector from the harness to the ECU connection? You attached the ground wire from the block to the body... if you did, did it make good contact?

    Fog lights installed

    I'm not too sure if they'll work on your car... do you have sealed beams to begin with? ...and I lose points for not putting the light in the instrument cluster... but I will.

    P/S Pump Rebuild Kit?? Should I??

    I would find a used one if I were you... cheaper than a new one, faster to replace than having to rebuild, only to find that the gears may be shot.

    Fog lights installed

    Just got back from vacation today and installed my fog lights Before with factory spoiler; Then with the "is" factory spoiler; Now, with fogs and "a/c" grill:) This was a very straight forward job, and I'm happy with the end result. Special thanks goes out to my GF's car for lending me four...

    Your Bimmer is either a 1983, or it's a E34, but it can't be both.

    Black BMW

    Our cruisers look pretty mean... they're dodge chargers with black bodies and white doors. There are also Ford Crown Vic's, Ford Explorers, and beetles, all sorts of vehicles. They used to be chevy lumina's with Vette engines. We also have a few camero's in Toronto. In milton, just west of...

    1986 635CSI Broken Odometer

    This is also a problem in E30's. Apparently the grease that is on the gears that turns the odometer over eats away at the gears over time and they strip. Your best bet would be to remove the gauge cluster, remove the speedometer(which should have the odometer inside it) and replace it with a...
