[Hella Covers]

I have seen a few e30s with Hella light covers but I cannot seem to find any to buy that would fit an e30. Does anyone know of where I could purchase them? Thanks!

[Engine Issues]

So I have e30 325is and recently when I start her up on a half tank or less the revs drop to under 1 and the car sputters and dies, but when I have a full tank she starts right up, the revs are normal and does not die and acts totally normal. I was thinking it could be a possible fuel pump issue but Im not too sure. Anyone have any idea of whats the issue? Thanks!

[possible oil in air filter]

I have not had much time to go through my E30 but when I checked the air filter I noticed on almost half of it that it had a dark residue on it, front and back. I am almost sure it is oil but I was also wondering how this would have gotten here and possible solution.

 

Thanks!

[Need help identifying performance chip]

Okay thanks a lot! I guess we'll have to see

[Need help identifying performance chip]

I was given a performance chip when I bought my E30 but the owner didn't know what it was. I've called turner and pelican parts and they haven't been a help. I think it might be a conforti but would like to know for sure. The top of the chip says 1 267 356 232, that's all Any help would be great.

Thanks!

[Ireland Racing Stroker Kit]

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the 3.1 L stroker kit from Ireland Racing? I wanna know how good it is, the pros and cons of installing it. I dont wanna go the forced induction path, so i figured the stroker kit would be the best idea besides and engine swap. 

Any help on it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[Best Sounding Exhaust/ Muffler?]

I was wondering all your thoughts on exhaust systems or what aftermarket mufflers sounds good for a 325is? 

 

 Ive heard that Magnaflows mufflers arent bad or a cheap muffler from Summit Racing 

[Removing and Replacing e30 sunroof]

I successfully installed the sunroof panel, but it was pain. It still needs to be painted the correct color but I figured I would get it in since my old one was dumping rust in the car. The hardest part was getting everything to line up and make it flush. The Bentley book is a great help for it.  I will post some pics soon. Thanks for the help!

[Removing and Replacing e30 sunroof]

I will try to get a couple pics before work tomorrow.  It might be a little or a lot different on the e30 than my e36 though.  I didn't catch if this was a coupe or sedan.  You have to take out the A/B/C pillar trim and the grab handles inside, then the headliner should come down to get a look in there.

Thanks man. Its a coupe. I was thinking that it could just be a simple plug and play but that is not looking to be the case.

[Removing and Replacing e30 sunroof]

If you have a Bentley manual or can get access to one that probably will explain the procedure the best. Should only be a couple hidden screws but its tight. The hardest part on taking one out of my e28 was trying not to damage the headliner insert.

I actually just picked up a Bentley manual today. It suggests that I get new screws that are rubberized to reduce noise and vibration. Did you get new screws or did you just use the old ones? 

[Removing and Replacing e30 sunroof]

Not sure how similar the e36 sunroofs are, but there are torx screws behind the weatherstrip on the top of the door jams.  I haven't removed mine yet but I can take a pic tomorrow if you need me to.

Cant hurt to see if you dont mind

[Removing and Replacing e30 sunroof]

I could not find a thread about this, but I was wondering if anyone had experience removing and replacing the sunroof panel on an e30?  I was also wondering what sort of electrical work would need to be done since it is a power roof.  I have read other instructions but almost all are on crank sunroofs. I bought the car with the old panel still partly in as well. Thanks! 

[Dinan Performance Chip]

Would dropping M50 injectors into a N/A engine be a bad idea? 

[The official WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO YOUR BMW thread.]

Removing the sunroof panel that has almost completely rusted out and figuring out how to install the new one. 

[Dinan Performance Chip]

Thanks alot man. Big help 

[Bought my first E30]

I just bought my first E30, a 325is that I bought in Milwaukee.  I am from Chicago but go to school in Green Bay. I am new to BMWs and always looking for parts.  The sunroof panel and the front drivers side panel are both rusted out pretty bad but the car did come with a new panel and fender. I will try to keep you all up to date with my build. 

[Dinan Performance Chip]

Thanks alot. 

 

Any ideas on intake and exhaust that I could pair with the Dinan chip? 

[Dinan Performance Chip]

I recently just purchased a 1990 325is and found in the glove box a Dinan performance chip. If anyone could give me any information or background on this chip and its benefits for my E30 that would be great.
