6/83 grey market 323i.. mtech I S50 5-lug

[ThatOneEuroE30]

Mine 320i is the same way no abs, ac, and manual windows and sun roof. I only got power steering.

[kronus]

the 323i was the flagship e30 of the time, so a lot of them were pretty highly optioned. (hence doglegs and special unicorn LSDs)

I am unfortunately cursed with a sunroof, but I won't complain about the AC. We're having a bit of a summer here.

Crank windows, no PS, no A/C but powered sunroof on mine...kind of a weird combo.

That's the one thing I wish I had was the dog leg, But it'd be useless now after the m30 swap.

not if you have an m30 dogleg :p

This is the answer for your problems. Grab an m20 bellhousing and drop that clutch sideways smokin.

oh shit that's also a good idea

what do i need the bellhousing out of? 528td?

[LJ851]

1982 528e.


You can fit your big 240 clutch in there too, i bet.

[kronus]

Ok yeah, this is the best idea so far. Finding one of those should be reeeeeally easy, right? :D

Is this for a regular dogleg or a m30 dogleg cause a m30 dogleg would be so cool.

[kronus]

m30

the m20 one already bolts to m20s and m20-flanged things

[ThatOneEuroE30]

m30

Sweet! So you take the m20 dogleg and change the bell housing and clutch?

[kronus]

nope, you take an M30 dogleg and put the 528e bellhousing on

m20 and s52 have the same bellhousing pattern

I should clarify that I have both a 245/11 dogleg and a 265CR dogleg...

So you take a m30 dogleg put the 528e housing on it and it will fit the m30? I wonder how hard the m30 dogleg is to find an I bet it cost a chunk of change.

[kronus]

I have an M30 dogleg, I can put a 528e bellhousing on it and then it will fit on a S52, which will avoid concerns of overpowering the relatively fragile getrag 245/11.
