  1. There was aftermarket ones available and might stiil be. Made of Al sheet with rubber seals around. They're very useful. They were made under "Lokari" brand. http://www.lokari.fi/?s=t_sisalokasuojat&l=eng http://www.02forum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3269 http://www.lokari.eu/epages/62716287.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/62716287/Categories/%22INNENKOTFL%C3%9CGEL%22/Artikelsuche_Bestellung/BMW
  2. Yes the odometer works. It is a very tight fit but goes just barey to orginal place. Rear steel bracket need "some" redoing. Also larger openings for digits (more of them) makes the backgound quite full but it's manageable. I try to get pics. i'll have to make better backgound anyways and i can't find my earlier scans so it's back to squre one just right there...
  3. I went route #2. E30 speedometer and sender. Trigger wheel made out of magnetic rost free steel bolts between diff flange and cvj. Bracket for sender bolted on diff housing. E30 gauge is cut to fit 02 cluster and trip button functions in its orginal position. Scanned oem background and using Gimp software made new oem style background.
  4. I'm using oem valves but lighter valves might be the next step to reduce masses... lovely cheap!
  5. Back in a day when i had Tii engined cars i by passed whole cold start relay unit and wired c/s injector to be operated via push button in cabin. Some morse coding and off we went each time.
  6. Seat pressure was 78kg, dunno p/n. John: massive diet on those KM r.arms. How much is the weight? I have a set under work also but didn't dare to take that much off of them. My version is now at 123 g.
  7. Thanks. Yes Rack & pinion... E21 fast steering + E21 front member slightly modified. Managed to buy it back after i sold my E21 race car. Yes block is my "garage camo".
  8. HI Fred and Thank You. TBs are custom made using Dellorto's 40 mm repair set for moving parts. Jenvey Plenium. Yes, cam sensor in upper cover. I'll try to find/get pics of those suspension parts...
  9. Spin ones has served me well. Oem (Mahle), Fram, Mann. MH. No issues so far.
  10. I have Haynes and it's rather good. It will take you a long way. Chilton #8789 might be worth of intrest despite its year range ('70 - '88).
  11. Hi Jeff. My cam is custom grind from Schrick 304. V.springs were Scat at that time - yes i went grazy with pressures but again nothing that hadn't been done before. Ti retainers (non Schrick). Valves didn't kiss pistons. I might have been a tad over 8k rpm mark but my rev limiter was set at 8.5k rpm and there i didn't visit. Anyway i thought that these r.arms should have taken this abuse with smile.
  12. Regardless of gasket type i started to use silicone with it. Never leaks.
  13. I do. As Tommy referred earlier... i broke two of them. Schrick said they're fine but there is quite a little metal around adjustment bolt! Maybe i had too aggressive cam but really nothing that fancy that hadn't been tried elsewhere.
  14. Set of spark plugs and tools to change them. -/+ screwdriver. 10, 12, 13, 17, 19 mm wrences. Set of windshield wiper plades. Roll of iron wire & few zip ties and cutters. Fuel pump relay. Fuses. Electric tape. Spare tire & necessary tools to chage it. I think thats about it. And tow-home - insurance
  15. If your window seal is intact i can't see why it couldn't be used again. So no need for new one.
  16. I like them too. Besides they're usefull. At a time of my build i didn't have decent oem ones so i went with E21's flaps instead.
  17. Hello everyone! As of reading every now and then this site i finally thought to join. It's now just about 25 years since i bought my first 02. Currently i have 2 cars running or should i say one and half as turboed one is usually torn apart every winter did i planned it or not. It's build for circuit racing and come autumn some new ideas merges and... The "M2" has stayed as is since i got it finished a few years back. Some minor tweaks but nothing major. 2 pics of engines (if i manage to attach them)
  18. Hi All Thought that i finally join in... I started 02:ing around 1990 buing my first BMW.
