General Topics / Boot leaking water

« on: November 18, 2008, 06:43:51 AM »

As you prob know I live in sunny England as we have a fair share of rain.

Well when ever it rains heavy the boot is getting damp but I cant work out where the water is coming from. I have flushed out the drain holes for the sunroof and that didn't fix it. and it seams every E30 I have had is the same

Please help

Mine was leaking around the taillight gaskets.

What kind of noise?

Constant rattle on deceleration between 3500 – 2500 rpms, and rattles with the A/C  on.

I'm selling my 9lb flywheel I hate the noise's it makes at 2500 - 3500 RPMs.  But it does rev up really quick compared to the heavy stock unit.  Who wants to buy it?

General Topics / Why is a 31.8IS better then a 32.5I? or is it not?

Any e30 is slow in a straight line period...if you want to go fast and have alot of power get a faster car.  

This E30 is fast as hell.  :p

Engine + Driveline / dual carburated m42?

« on: November 27, 2007, 08:43:07 PM »

I think were going backwards here.  Why do you want to put a carburetor  on  a fuel injected car which are like 10 times more efficient and make more power?

Electrical / Amps

How did you measure the current?  You have to measure it inline (break the circuit and the multimeter will complete it) you can't measure current with one lead on the + and one on the -.

800 milliamps sounds kind of high with the key off IMO

Swaps, Turbos, Buildups / Has anyone ever done a Ford 5.0L/H.O. swap?

« on: September 03, 2007, 12:33:46 AM »

I’d say defiantly go with a 4.4l BMW V8.  It’s not really easier to install over a 5.0 ford motor but at least it’s still all BMW.

How-To's / Caliper removal

« on: August 18, 2007, 10:56:00 AM »

Well you have no idea what you are doing then cause those are the one's to take off to remove just the caliper and not the bracket.  And you didn’t say you wanted the bracket off also.

Look the caliper comes off with the hex bolt I've done it a million times.
