Nope. Ripped every single a/c component out. Doesn't ever get hot enough here to justify having it.

cool, just noticed you are from Portland.
Good looking bay.

Not done...but getting there.

I've tidied a few things up since then. Still need to replace the coolant reservoir and brake fluid reservoir.

What mechanical/clutch fan you running?

1992-1995 E36 318i, trimmed 1" equally to clear the coolant tank. Works fine no overheating. Auxiliary fan comes on hotter days.

My M54B30 swap, running factory MS43 engine management. E30 really rocks with this engine. I even got 2.93 rear diff and the flat torq from this engine really moves E30 around like a golf cart.








ps: E30 with M54B30, its a joy to drive it

If I had "fuck you money" that's the first thing I'd build...

Its the early model Castro motorsports air box. They stopped making them. Picked mine up from Guten Parts.

[Farbin Kaiber]

There are a lot of threads that show how different people went about shaving their e30 bays. Just start using the search function.
