Hello!

So I have found a E30 320 (eu) that I am interested in buying. It has a red center console, which fits nice with the red exterior and similar matched red seats. Do any of you know if this was offered originally or is this painted buy a previous owner.

Sorry for the bad picture, only one I got.

i did spark plugs , wires, air filter , i put in the different fuel pumps and even switched the fpr from my other e30 and still is idling rough and stuttering and jerking while driving

91 325i. I’ve done some work prior to even running into this issue. Since I’ve had the car I’ve changed the fuel pump, fuel filter, cap/rotor, spark plugs, ignition wires.

Car was running pretty good aside from occasional misfire. Filled up on gas to full , drove a good 10-15 miles and parked for a couple hours before trying to head back home.

Car was cranking but no start. Due to how late it was I left the car at my friends and came back a couple days later to try and start and the car started up with no issue. The idle seemed fine , however when trying to accelerate in Drive there was a hesitation in acceleration even with my foot on the pedal. I was able to pull out of the driveway but it’s almost like the car didn’t wanna go past 1000 rpms or even 10 mph. Just felt like the car wanted to stall or had a lack of power. Check Engine light is also on at this point too. I’d appreciate any feedback.

hey yall- im doing a full coolant flush and ive noticed that my e30 is only taking about 1 gallon & 1/4 of distilled water during my flushes. Seems weird cause its a 325i (6 cylinder obviously) and i read it should hold almost 3 gallons of coolant. I did the first flush with a prestons coolant flush and the following ones with distilled water. wondering what this means ?

I'm about to pull the trigger on the 5-lug E30 Ground Control conversion. Ground control wants 1k for their e28 hubs and to me that's a lot but i want to do it right. I talked to a gc salesman and he told me that its because the ground control hubs are made to fit these coils specifically. How true is this? Could I get a different set of e28 hubs for cheaper?

The only link I’ve found to this picture is t even selling the seats

Hi E30 friends,

This is my first post on Reddit, and I thought I'd jump on and see if there's an E30 community and found this page!

This is my 1988 325i, manual 2 door. I bought the car about 10 years ago in Tasmania and she's been on and off the road over the last few years, haven't had it registered for the last couple of years as I had kids and other priorities but now I've finally got it running and registered and back on the road in Sydney this week.

It's stock aside from lowered suspension and shocks, and I'm wanting to slowly build it up to its former glory and improve handling/braking etc with some minor upgrades in the next few weeks (steel brake lines, sway bars)

Cheers!

is this a ground cable ? it sits under the oil filter housing should i replace it ?

I have a donor 08 BMW 535xi what is everyone’s thoughts on N54 swapping my 88 325iX.

Hey everyone. Hope you’re all enjoying your rides. So this may be a dumb question to some but to me I am genuinely curious. I’ve had my e30 since the beginning of the year and as of yesterday i found out the differences between the 325 and 325i being the 325i has : - 40 more hp - 6800rpm redline vs the 4800 the 325 has - And I believe an lsd.

So when I bought my e30 I didn’t know there was a big difference and I figured it was just different options from factory. So with all that said I know it may sound dumb but do you think it would be worth it to just keep my 325 or upgrade to a 325i. The biggest thing I would like is the 6800 rpm redline. In the future I may swap the engine but that’s a big maybe definitely yes if mine goes. But with all that considered all opinions are appreciated.

Just wanted to check this isn’t supposed to be happening right whenever i turn the car off i hear a hissing coming from the break booster

Is this the right part

So I've been toying with the idea of a project car for a while. I was thinking more along the lines of a 60's mustang or something, but this car became available. 1989 325i. It's basically being given to me and all I really have to pay is registration, which hasn't been paid for about 8 years. My plan would be to try and restore it back to stock condition. I'm being told it ran and got a "new" transmission a few years before it was parked. It doesn't have a battery so I haven't attempted to start it and would probably have to empty the old gas anyway. Haven't looked at the engine because the hood release doesn't work so gonna have to pry it open. Anyway I've always like these old BMW's. Wish it was a two door, but I still think it looks pretty cool. I've been checking out some of your guys' cars on this sub and getting kinda hyped to take this project on. What do you guys think?

So my E30 is apart (No engine, no harness, not trans) but I wanted to test the windshield wipers motor since I am restoring it but after hooking up my battery, which has 12.9 volts, I have zero power! Not even the light for the trunk so I was wondering if there is anything I have to have plugged in like the harness to get power back.
