I've heard they're less likely to crack and just by nature of being a repro casting, there's more meat to work with for porting and resisting typical damage.
That said, it's a lot of money....

The original cam sensors typically die from the wire insulation rotting away and the wires shorting together, giving messed up signal.
If it shorts the 5V to ground, it can mess up the 5V rail in...

I've seen diesels around, but I don't think they were sold in NA in any real volume (maybe not at all?) so options are either be a V8 or SCV6. I've heard the crank issues with the Diesels through LRTIME's...

Best spec. Would love one of these, but I'm also looking at E34 tourings more and more as well thanks to Varg and some other internet builds.
Carsandbids prices are high vs historical values, but...

I think almost everything I've been interested in for the past few years has priced itself out of contention (at least north of the border here)
Cheap truck would be convenient for this hobby...Last edited by Northern; 04-16-2024, 10:06 AM.

Yeah that's the full M3 firewall cover. The M40/M42 one is the same except for the battery tray piece, so if it didn't fit they'd have figured that out pretty quickly.

I built the 4-clutch 2.93 to replace a 4-clutch 3.73 that was entirely the wrong ratio for the ZF I have.
I only had about a week of driving on it so far, but it feels like the old one did,...

I really think the rear shock tower bar is pointless, and not worth the trunk space it takes up.
I haven't seen the engine bay of yours, so I don't know what cover you have, but I have the...

Why not to another G4x since you're already familiar (although I understand the appeal of something new)?
An E36X has the 88pin connector already, but would need a repin of the harness....Last edited by Northern; 04-15-2024, 12:15 PM.

Hopefully they used better vbands than on the MINI. The nut & bolt just look like one blob made of rust. If I look at it the wrong way, it's going to fall apart....

+1 to pictures and more info.
You should be able to tell what's what for power+GND based on the wire colour if you can pull the sleeving back.
I would double check the wiring for the...

So how does the seat line up when the front two holes are sort of bolted in like that? Like centerline of the seat to the wheel, arm room, etc?
Looks like all the seat kits including the...

I bought the racing diffs 4-clutch setup and carrier cap for my 2.93 build.
Cap seems nice enough just because it doesn't have the big hollow valley in the casting between bolt flange and bearing...

surprised either of those had less than two cats per exhaust stream, seems very un-bmw of them.
Edit: at least in NA market. I know there are some markets where they've historically only...Last edited by Northern; 04-11-2024, 10:38 AM.

I'd pass for 9.5k for a vert lol
I always see verts for sale for crackhead prices, but everyone I know with a vert paid virtually nothing for it.
I think random non-enthusiasts think...

I'm sure multi stage DISA, turbos, DI, Valvetronic, etc all make a difference in the sound of any current BMW engine
Probably a lot better once swapped and you get all the intake muffling...

Interested in what the objective of the manifold is.
I see that M50 manifolds are up in price and alternatives almost universally suck or are extremely expensive, but they usually fit the...
