Hi guys as the title says my Speedo needle jumps around. I had a quick read on the internet and the concenus seemed to be that I needed to grease my cable. At this point I should say that the cable is not the original and I thought I'd got it from walloth nesch 3 years ago however a quick check...
Thanks for your positive comments.
The suspension is bilstein shocks all round, the fronts from an e12 m535 that have been opened up and had the bump stop rubbers replaced as they go solid over time. Rears were new old stock when I bought them (2006) for a 635csi. The front struts have been...
The exhaust is a bitza. Fritzbits headers with a centre box that came as part of a full stainless system that I got from Jaymic 24 years ago. The rear section is home made in stainless with two tail pipes/rear silencers.
Most (95% at a guess) of what you can hear in the video is induction noise...
The DZ version of this box has a very high 1st year ratio, over 5:1. The BZ version is better at 4:1. The easiest way to do this if you are fine with converting to an electric speedometer is to locate a 5 speed transmission from an e23/24/28, e34 (fitted with M30 engine) as these are all known...
Hi guys can anyone tell me if the AMC cylinder head holds any value over and above a standard BMW one? If so I may decide to sell this one I have.
Thanks Gary
I put spacers on my CS. To answer your question yes you can use this type of spacer. You may need to cut your existing studs down if they protrude beyond the face of the spacer. Once the spacer is on and the studs don't stick out you have two options, you can either use bolts to fasten the...
My old m90 and my new m30 (86mm crank) both rev to 7K rpm. Ironically the m90 produced more torque than my m30 due to the milder cam and inlet plenum verses itb's. I'm currently getting a b35 head done by a renown race engine builder and I'll be hoping for close to 280 bhp.
Maybe the m90 is a better casting and is therefore stronger or can be bored out more but like I said the block doesn't make any power at all it simply deals with it, cramming more air and fuel in is what makes a bigger bang. If you bore an m30 to 93.4mm and put an 84mm crank in it assuming...
Who said anything about more horsepower? All the power is made by the head not the block, the block just deals with it and sends it to the transmission. Your theory about bragging rights is pretty accurate though
Can't answer about the m90 head cracking, you can't use the s38 head gasket as the engines use different timing chain casings and moreover good quality performance gaskets aren't that expensive. You can use moronic on an m90 if you change the upper timing cover and the camshaft to a moronic one...
I'm not yet but looking to buy, apparently better quality than Gaz. I'm just in discussion with a supplier re spring rates. They come with 8kg/mm front and 5kg/mm rear spring rates as standard (equivalent to 450lb and 280lb) which seem a bit high for a road car although they will supply whatever...
Thanks for your help. I tried searching BMW E9 suspension arms and all I get is E9x i.e modern stuff. If I search BMW 3.0 CS all I get is suspension bushes and yet they are out there, strange.
Hi guys, I would like to buy 2 new front suspension arm for my coupe but I've not been able to locate any. Does anyone know where there is any stock? Tried W&N etc but to no avail. Alternatively does anyone know anywhere (preferably European) that will fit new pins and cups to my existing arms...
