You know, the piece that wraps around the car and seems to always take a beating on the hood section.
I come across used ones from time to time but someone always beats me to it.

This is definitely a trial and error thing because there aren't many cars with an M20 in them right now that are really going for super tuned suspensions. The m20 does seem to effect the weight balanc ...

With the m20 I'm looking to get all the rear traction I can get - the rear sway doesn't help the inside rear on corner exit.

I will be using the car for the occasional autocross. I know Lain Mannix ...

What should the difference be between spring rates for the front and rear? I have 450 lb springs for the front. I'm looking at 500 lb springs for the rear to make up for no sway bar.

The stock fron ...

I looked for you email and couldn't find it.
Give me a call at 650-776-2543.

Does anyone out there have a strut housing or two they can throw my way? One of mine has been destroyed while shortening it (The lathe threw it out of its chuck- looks real bad). I'm tryign to get my ...

Let me know if you have some! Trying to get my car ready for the Duel at DeAnza.
Thanks,

Many here have used the POR-15 with good results after years of use. That's why I used it a few months ago when my tank developed a leak around the seam. So far its working great. It dried hard as a r ...

Thanks for all the responses you guys. The oil filter is new and I've tried several different senders- its definitely something internal. I did hook up a gauge to find the 50 psi on a cold startup at ...

I'm working on an M10 in an 85 318i that can take up to a minute to build oil pressure when the engine is cold, along with increased engine noise. Once its warm however, its got up to 50 psi of oil pr ...

I'm glad to see an M20 swapper using that COP setup. Looks like you're doing a great job using that big tranny as well.

I was just driving my m20 2002 last night and despite lack of tune, it puts a ...

The car has been mechanically sound for a while but I've had setbacks in tuning it. I recently put in some tested ford 19lb injectors, hoping to fix the rough idle it has (I thought the stockers might ...

They lived by the Ocean and let it rust. Thanks god its not structural.

SpeedTV isn't playing it tonight in my area. The website says:

A 2002 beating factory backed subarus, mazdas and minis? This is insane.

Most people would be quite satisfied with a turbo M10, they are bulletproof when built correctly, can produce obscene amounts of power and are probably less work than an engine swap. The downside (if ...

Go to pick-n-pull and chances are you will find one - for less than $100. I see them regularly at the three yards you have to choose from in San Jose.

You must be talking about the turbine wheels. All 320i wheel should work OK. They tend to have more outward offset though and may rub.

Are you losing brake fluid? If so, check for leaks at the rear wheel cylinders and front calipers and all of your brake lines. If they aren't noticeably wet and there are no noticeable leaks, its prob ...

I've gotten a lot of comments about this picture of my car:

I've emailed mophos.net to see if its OK to use a high res versi ...

I've come across two other 2002 owners since moving here with some absolutely amazing cars - one with a very original 1600 and another with a s14 powered Baur convertible 2002. Are there any others ou ...

I've heard good things about the Kroil oil. I have some myself - left behind by my landlord.

sweet, thanks for the link.

If you install the engine back far enough the track rod will be in front of the transmission bell housing. To clear the rod you will have to fabricate a thin cover plate for the flywheel.

This has ...

I'm building this 85 318i as a gift for someone. The front seats are pretty ratty and need to be replaced. Anything useable in black or grey will do. Send me an email: ddebolt at gmail dot com.
Thank ...

I had to move my lc-1 sensor down stream quite a ways because it was getting too hot in the stock o2 sensor location on an M20. A wide band sensor is very sensitive to heat an will overheat where many ...

Yeah the two pump deal is the way to go. Replacement pumps can be had much easier/cheaper. My uncle just gave me 4 good used main pumps for free (he used to replace them when they were still good as p ...

i can try and check on mine later tonight. I've never checked it with a timing light but it seems to run fairly well.

Can you get a picture of this manifold?

I wonder if I could adapt my GSXR ITB's to it.
