the idle goes up to 1000 normally and the goes up and down from 900 to 1200 rpm :hitler:

What's up neighbor? :) My car does the same thing when I first start the car in the morning before settling down. I've been trying to find the source of the vacuum leak somewhere but so far no luck. Nice project.

[thepoloplaya]

for the shaking and erradic idle check ure vacuum lines, bet u got a vacuum leak somewhere.

[BUDNUNTA]

Ive always wanted to build one of those.
Trash my shitty 318is shell and put everything in a clean early model

Good luck with it

That's really cool that you stuck with the 4 cylinder.

Nice work!

[MR 325]

Very nice, cool swap to do! A big improvement over the M10.

[MR 325]

Oh my god, TNG's!!!

Did you buy that motor from Danny?

[jintermont]

nice man good luck how is the body??? any cancer?

[HarryPotter]

I do not understand why you swapped to an m42? Why not m50?

[e30_3I8I]

i got this car for free.. it was given to me by my dad's friend....
it was a beat up m10 that had seem better days..
the start:

the interior =] its in good shape

good bye m10



new motor =]]]

new motor in=]


radiator

rear strut bar

finished product... (half ass if only the cons were done with)
Thats most of the pictures I took.. Most of the time i saw working on it and didn't really have the chance to take pics.
I installed a z4 short shifter.... i needed an adapter which i got from gregslow318i (great guy.. awesome work)..

pros: -I've learned a ton for my first time working on a bimmer.
-the m42 was bored to a 2.0 and cammed, and has the m20 flywheel conversion....
with dinan chip from TNG's.
-the car is fasstter than my m10.

cons: z4 shifter hits the drive shaft:hitler: The only gears it doesnt hit is 2nd and 4th. FIXED!
the idle goes up to 1000 normally and the goes up and down from 900 to 1200 rpm :hitler:FIXED
my whole car has the "shakes" i dont know why it does that.... LIVE WITH..=]

future: ie3's billies or koni yellows, speakers , and the list never ends=]
