What can I do to get more power, but without putting in a turbo or a supercharger. I've heard something about changing the crankshaft. Does anybody know something about that. What type of crankshaft should I use. I am open to any suggestions on how to improve my enging.

Here is a pic of the back of a spare block. There is a bolt (removed) on the back of the block that plugs a possible oil feed line. I removed the bolt and took it to a local hose a fitting guy and told him what I wanted.


I am still running on stock ecu and fuel pump with no problems. Timing is also stock. Thats why I can't exceed 8psi.

What about pistons, head gasket and vlaves are they also stock?

The other gauges work normal, only the fuel economy gauge doesn't work, the sensor on the diff i brand new and the wires are not faulty......

Does anybody have any idea what could cause the fuel economy to be faulty.

I meant when i start my engine the gauge shows a consumption of 40L and when I drive the car it doesn't move from that spot.

Hello everyone.

My name Vedran, I'm from Croatia and a proud owner of a BMW E30 85'. At first it had a M10B16 (we are the first owners), but i wanted more power, and i decided to put in an M42B18 engine and customize a little bit.

Here are a few pictures of my ride

Hello everyone. I'm new here and I need some help.
I have little problem with my fuel economy gauge on my E30 M42B18.

When I start the engine the fuel economy gauge shows maximum consumption. Now my question is this. How do i fix this problem and make the gauge to show proper consumption.  
The electronics and the coding plug behind the instrument cluster have been replaced with a new ones.

I f anybody had a similar problem could you describe me in details ho can i fix this problem.
