Sooooo E30Novaaah, when do you leave the beautifull weather of California and embark on your new 50K + a year job?

I want to make this drive before that happens, so we can shoot the shit man. It's cool meeting new family members with the same passion for the e30.

[greanthumb]

go to the Mooneyes show in Irwindale Matt

Hot Rods, Drag Racing and Pinup Girls, whats not to like.lol



Thinking I might get with Edwin and plan some crazy fender rolling day soon. Maybe a drive up to a local shop and some DIY style deal.

sounds like a plan. i just did a half ass job the other night with a bottle jack in the dockwieler parking lot(after eating tires all the way there)

I've been gettin my E30 back in shape to take a nice drive, it'd be GREAT to meet you guys and take a nice drive. Let's try settin up a date before summer's over :)

Beautiful weather my ass. This 110º heat is ridiculous. :hitler:

But uhhhhhhhhhh.......I'm still waiting on my court date on August 16th, once that's over I'll probably leave pretty soon. :???:

Sux Dude but let me try this again, once I do my brakes this coming weekend., on another note, I think my Diff is taking a shit too cause it makes a loud popping noise when I let go of the clutch while in R, 1st or 2nd gear.:hitler:

[E30Nova]

popping or a rattling noise??

[IRON-E]

Popping, could it be my diff bushing or that little cross thingy that holds the diff to the shaft?

Is it an LSD? I'd hate to loose my top end speed dude, does anyone think a 391 would be better so I can still have top end and pick up as well?

391 would be a lil taller, thing is , its a small case diff. off a early 318i?

[ak-]

You'll blow up the small case if you drive anything like Ben.

Well at least I won't bend the valves......



J/K Ben...... what about like a 346 or something like that? Should I stick with the stock diff size?

3.91 should have come out of an iX. I would stick with the 3.73 if I were you Edwin. The 4.10 is nice but it gets really annoying on the freeway. 3.46 would be goof for freeway driving but you would lose a lot of bottom end

Thanx for the infoe MIJAAA, I guess I have another part to look for now!!!! :hitler:

The u-joint? Could be. My sister's car made a popping/thunking sound when going putting it in reverse. Ended up being the u-joint. Does it just make the popping noise or is there any grinding or humming or anything?

Yup, that's why I took it out and put a 3.73 back in. Plus it was annoying how short first gear was with 4.10s.
