Look close at the E21 bearing cap.  There is a separate support anchor bolted to the bearing cap.  Use that anchor and the bolts from the E21, they are longer.  Do not swap bearing caps or bearings.

Ok, sounds good.

any idea of the tightening torque?

best regards to all

You DO want to swap in that support bracket-

you can simply move it from one engine to the other,

as it sits under the main cap.  Take the bolts, too, as

they are longer.

 

Otherwise the pickup is prone to breaking off from vibration.

The thing is:

the e21 crankshaft support that the bracket attaches does not have the holes for it.

i would have to change that support and the crankshaft bearing also.. 

am I wrong?

I have one of those, just missing the black block for thread conversion

Is there any stock sensor for that or where can I put it?

Hello guys!

So, 

I have a 1602, and instaled in there a 1.6L M10 from an e21 and after being fully assembly and fully running, i discovered a strong vibration in the steering wheel and in the car in general. The oil sump was different than the original engine and was hitting the under carriage.

I removed the e21 oil pan, and saw that they were a bit different (left original 02, right e21).

The e21 one was much deeper, and the e21 oil pump hitted the bottom of the 02 oil pan. So, i changed the pickup part of the pump, from the old engine the new.

Now they fit, but im concern if im going to have any problems with oil pressure, or something related. Also, the 02 (first engine picture) engine had a bar to the crankshaft support, which i didnt put, otherwise, i have to change crankshaft supports etc etc... Could this be critical also??

would i be better with an e21 hammered down oil pan and original oil pickup oil part(dont know the correct name)

Let me hear your opinions, 

Best regards!!

Ive found a seller with springs 50mm lower, is it too much?

On my car, Octavo 100's beat Turbines. I look the look better despite not having found center caps for them yet. (worth noting that 185/70 tires rubbed in the front on the Octavo's before I put in camber plates. Turbines did not, and currently wear 205/55's which don't rub)
 
For your car, I'd pick the center wheels. I think they'd look better on the white.

The Octavo's are 5.5.
im not sure what size the original steel wheels are, they may be 5?
i guess it depends what tyres you intend to use?

Ok so a little more info.
The turbine looking wheel isn't actually a turbine, it's a Japanese wheel and has a deeper dish than a turbine as you can see from the side view pics, it is actually the lightest of the 3!
Octavos, light, easy to clean, but need a professional refurb.
BWA, Zinz they are 4x100, they are in very good shape and just need a sand and paint.
All are 13's
Thanks for the relies keep them coming.[emoji41]

Are those fourteens or thirteens?

im with the same dilema but with the size.
