      My wheel as well, on both my OG german cars. Although I think mine is smaller.
      Even smaller than mine? Mines 320mm and it seems very small.

              swapped in? o.0 it would be more fun the the m10.
              im thinking once the e30 is running i will probably be swapping an m42 into this little guy.

                Yeah it would be more fun with the M10, but hey the motor is already in and the M10 was blown up. Will probably just put an 885 head on it and boost the shit out of it.

                Do it. Or S14 if you are man enough :p

                  im man enough, but my wallet isn't.
                  if i end up swapping ill be boring out the lower end with goodies in there, and putting a trick valve train in it.

                  does anyone have any clue how much power you can get out of a NA m42?

                    You can get about 180 with various combinations before things start to get pricey.

                        so.

                        update on the tractor.
                        failed smog sept of 2013, was out of commission for a while till i had the funds to get a catback done this past november. got the catback done with 2.5 in piping, magnaflow cat, and a cheapy "dtm" style exhaust from amazomg (LOL)

                        passed smog, was running good for a few weeks.

                        traded the old momo for some taiwanese smileys, bought a new momo monte carlo 350mm, a little rougher in shape but gets the job done and much better than factory.

                        was getting ready to do the control arms new from febi, and put on the new brakes
                        then some schmuck decided to slash my rear tire, two new tires and two days later, started running like ass, misfiring and running on what seemed to be 2-3 cylinders, low on power, sounded like an air cooled beetle or a subaru boxer engine.

                        completely hit the shitter a few days later while driving it to the shop to see what was up, still havent taken it in, but i think it has to do with electrical, either the spark delivery system or some ground, the alternator is not charging the battery.



                        im gonna take a closer look at things tmw morning.

                        pics to follow after this post.

                              so i got it running again.

                              the alternator ground had broken off on the eyelet.

                              but its running on three cylinders, #2 isn't recieving spark.

                              gonna address the issue, probably gonna get 4 new spark plugs.


                              also ordering control arms with bushings, and gonna do the brakes.
