    Can anyone help with TB change? in Bay area/Sac?

    I have an e30 that will be needing a timing belt change and I was wondering if someone would be willing to help me out with that. Actually, if someone gets me a good connection, I just might go straight to m5x/s5x swap. Please let me know.

    I can help you out. I have a shop up here in Auburn, I would charge you $200 to install a new t-belt/tensioner/waterpump (you supply parts), or you can use my shop/tools to do it for $30.

          I have seen pics of Ryan's shop and it does look nice. Ryan... I was wondering how much time it takes for you to change a TB Belt. I want to be there and see everything if I am able to make it up there. I live the south bay (gilroy) so I am going to plan accordingly since you are almost 3 hours away. Quite a distance.

            It should take Ryan roughly 4 hours. Prolly less since he knows what he's doing.

                post on www.baye30.net and PM a guy called supereurobeast or something along those lines. His name is Matt and he does TB changes too.

                  Thanks a lot for the help alkas. I really appreciate it. Crazy thing is... that guy is even further (I think a little cheaper though). I think I am going to go with ryan, but I have to make up a time to make it up there with my car.
