Hey everyone, I realize that the pictures are down. It looks like the image hosting site I used back in the day is no longer around. I might have some of the pictures on my computer or an old phone, but I fear that some of them were directly uploaded to the hosting site and I might not have them. So I'll either have to hunt or try to take some new pictures of what I can.
I am super busy with school, so idk when this will happen. I have made some edits to the OP already in regards to links and stuff and will fix the pictures slowly but surely.
I'm sorry gangLast edited by craiggroves91; 03-18-2016, 06:33 PM.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

use whatever throttle body you want, but the gasket setup switches between OBD1/2 manifolds, so I ran the OBD1 TB with the M50 manifold instead of making some sort of sealing plate.
Unless you're retaining ASC-T or whatever and need the extra throttle body.Originally posted by priapismMy girl don't know shit, but she bakes a mean cupcake.Originally posted by shamesonUsually it's best not to know how much money you have into your e30

For the metal hose to overflow tank is this the hose you used and cut? And if I'm understanding correctly I can use what's left of that hose for one of the heater core hoses as well.
And since my car is a 318is as yours is, what temp sensor/switch did you use for the radiator to get the SPAL fan to turn on? M20 one?Last edited by AllydNYC; 10-11-2016, 10:16 AM.E30: '91 318is - M52/ZF320 | Azev A 16X7.5 | H&R Race/Bilstein | Completely refreshed suspension/brakes/drivetrain

For the hose I can't tell you for sure as it was a while ago that I hacked it up, but that seems to be it. I remember using the leftovers in several places.
I use the 82 degree switch by FAE #36050
