Interested too. But are the days of the $250 e21 LSD just old history on?

Hi Blunt

I know Brian. He perhaps is gone racing for a week. Lucky SOB.

Hi Steve O

If you are not handy with tools and have limited engineering and mechanical skills, I would suggest leaving the shop to any shop that has done a couple of similar swaps. There are more t ...

Nice.

One question though. Now knowing the rarity of that "one of one" by Alpina, do you have any support from either BMW NA or Alpina Germany? And when I mean support, I don't mean a tap on the ba ...

WTF it clearly said 53,000 miles.

at 99,999 miles, the odometer goes back to... 0 mile. Which means that 54K miles can be 154K, 254K, 354k... It takes a full history of the vehicule since the very ...

Damn. I am not good at making blogs. And am pretty short in terms of time for properly documenting such project. But basically here's where I am going to for my 2002 racecar.

Hi Pete

When I boxed your parts, I couldn't remember what was missing. Damn, now I know. The set of engine mounts. Please post a picture of the installed block-off plate. I just got te S14 and need ...

S14 airhorns are great to cut up and turn into 8" long 45mm DCOE/ITBs velocity stacks. The famous "airhorns on Viagra". $125 per set. 2 sets available. Cut them up yourself.

I always found that the two extra linkages between the brake pedal and the master cylinder was a source for slack and feeling of "remoteness".

There fore, I have started fabricating a pedal box whe ...

Hi Mark

Can you forward me a link to a picture of your Alpina pedal box with directly mounted MC? I am trying to see what Alpina did for the gaz pedal. I am tempted to put the cable mechanism withi ...

Lowering the motor is secondary in my case. I would be happy to move it back. Even 1/2" would be great. BTW As I had an S14 lower oil pan in my basement, I decided to take a piece of cardboard and mak ...

If you read the classifieds, you would probably notice that I have asked for a pedal box to experiment with an MC bolted directly on it. I had three replies. Two guys offering them for respectively $ ...

Hi Tony. I don't have your email address. Just contact me on my business address at massivebrakes@gmail.com

I can remove the engine whenever you are ready. Will you run a Weber 32/36 on it?

Lee

The engine is quite torquey and has a very wide powerband. 10:1 pistons is what makes it easy to run. Yes, it can be a good torquey street engine, but must be ran on 91 octane. It is 100% gunk-free as ...

Reviving s old thread. I still want to use the S14 aluminum pan. Therefore, how much from the pan should I cut? Should I go along the line, or just shaving the side? I also want to move back the motor ...

The idea is to do what I vaguely remember from Mark's car. Bolting a short e36/e46 MC directly onto the pedalbox. There will be some cutting and welding. One of the advantages will be that by removig ...

Selling my good engine with ported 121ti head, 292 regrind, larger e12 valves, 10:1 pistons, o-ringed deck, mechanical chain tensionner, TISA valve springs. Burns no oil and was doing 200psi within 3% ...

Been searching on realoem.com for a while but couldn't find them. Back in the days, we could buy from BMW the two mounting tabs that are welded in the tranny tunnel to mount the crossmember. Anybody k ...

Hi

It is indeed possible to modify the 318i gearbox to access the mechanical speedo gears. I have to find the link. I will post it when I get it.

Lee

I still the clutch pedal.

Thanks anyway.

Lee

For my S14 swap, I am going to a boosterless set-up. I therefore need a rustfree pedalbox on which I will adapt a direct MC. Please let me know what you have.

TIA

Megasquirt can run Alpha-N. 12 years ago, on my 2002 engine with ITBs I spent a whole week pulling my hair trying to work with MAP. Then went with TPS. Worked great.

I have a E30 M3 flywheel on my M10 right now. If you wanted something lighter but did not want to worry about warping an aluminum the sport evo flywheel is cast and only weighs 12lbs. Good Luck.
-An ...

Cool. I'll check if my 2002 has a 215 or 224mm flywheel.

I will probably change the front and rear seals, as well as the rear cover gasket, and camcover gasket too before installing the motor. Obvi ...

Any advice appreciated.

John. The e30 M3 is a wonderfull car. Such a vehicle will never be reproduced ever. It makes a superb track car if you are willing to scrupulously observ oil changes. If yo ...

The S14 will adorn my engine bay in two weeks. I have decided to go to Megasquirt and "DTM" airbox. My question is if the S14 flywheel fits the e21 tranny bellhousing and if there's some clearing to d ...

You may want to try selling the wheels on r3v and e30tech. I am petty sure it will sell fast.

Lee

Very nice work. Let us know how that project progresses.
