save your money on the ebay intake and chip, do yourself and your car a favor and buy a MarkD, Dinan, etc. chip.

[emilioa]

[e30austin]

well when i was like 18 i had a civic and when i did the same thing the car pulled way harder. i sold the hondaa before i could chip it but the filter was a nice mod for it

[Ryann]

Are you trolling us?

[HarukoE30]

Nothing but shit problems with e30s lately wtf

People have forgotten to knock on their E30's when someone else runs into issues. I at least expect 5 with mine from the start.

Tell me about it Phil!

Ok I will lol was having cooling issues bc of a fucked up radiator put in an m20 one in and now I have a badass cooling system and constant heat

for the new guys on here, few days ago i read that some one has been hunting around for his first e30.. this is not the car you want http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/cto/2741065342.html reason im doing this is i don't want to hear your bitching latter on. i seen the car last Friday this is what I saw lots of rust, loud knocking in the front possible bad control arms or steering rack bearings or both. its auto and super slow the guy wont lower the price..

i just did my good deed of the day :D

I did the same, but some people are impatient or sheep & will buy something they shouldn't.

Well car dont run and it needs to be moved... so it must be pushed

First off, calm down 5Toes. What you need to do is sit down & write out start to where you are what happened. Than look into what you have done so far. After you have done that, make a least of things to trouble-shoot, and as you go one after another start checking them off. I'm sure once you reset & take your time, you'll figure it out. Also in the meantime, get a damn real Bentley & not the PDF. Hell even I did that & it even told me where my oil cooler was going.

Welcome, but maybe just a chip?

Please don't start with the ebay vs real chips. Plenty have been running both without issue. It's a never-ending debate.

After I read that, I was could that be 5Toes.

I am really tempted since I got my engine so cheap, maybe try the ebay chip with keyless entry. Also, do I need the bolts from the manual flywheel to use in my swap, because I have the auto one's & I am having trouble finding the guide that answered this for me.

Rest of my 5-speed swap comes in on Thursday :up:
