Swaps, Turbos, Buildups / Mounting M42 into an E34
« on: June 10, 2009, 04:08:01 AM »
thanks for all the replys
i think they mount the motor so much forward because the engine bay
is bigger then the E30...
Later this week i'll have the e34 here and i'll see what i can do
lets hope for the best

Exterior / one-wiper arm conversion
« on: June 09, 2009, 09:52:58 AM »
I have done this conversion on many cars myself...
its not real hard to do... you need to take of the spindle or crank... (not sure of the propper english word for it) of the wiper motor, cut it in two and lengthen it by aprox 1 cm
mount it back and then align your wiper

Hi again
as i posted in the member area my car is just totaly infected with rust.
Now i found a E34 518i without an engine.. so i was thinking about
taking the M42 of my E30 and mount it in the E34
Haven't done anything like this yet so i was hoping that i could
get some tips and advice from you guys.

I was happy to find this forum too... my car is not in good shape... but
i can't seem to part from the engine... i have had other BMW's but i just
love the M42 so it's real nice to be on this forum surrounded by other
people that have just as much love for it

i know a guy who has an E34 for sale but no engine in it... so

So what do you guys think ?
Do or Don't

Hi everybody,
My name is Bjorn Wolfs.
I live in Hasselt, Belgium. My dayly driver is a BMW E30 318IS.
Check my avatar... That's my car.
Plans for the car are a turbo conversion... Painting it Porche White,
white wall tyres on some 15" BBS rims and the stock interior
made black and white leather. The glovebox, armrest, center of the
M3 steering wheel the A en B pilarmounts are allready done in white.
Normaly i would be further done with all my work but yesterday i
found some rust and it seems the car needs a lot of sheet metal work.
Holes in the floor and the mounting brackets for the gastank are
rotten too. The rear wheelarches both inner and outer are rotten
too so i'm going to have a lot of work.
I'll keep you guys posted...
Greetings

Thanx deftones...
I only use gas to start... once it hits 2000 rpm it switches to LPG automaticly
Have been trying to get a lot of info from people i know that have
done turbo conversions and it should be able to work...
it seems worth a try... and otherwise i can allways switch to gas and lose
the LPG
