lol you mean you didnt check this already?! haha all you had to do was look behind the front passenger wheel!

doing the fuel pump is probably going to be easier.

all you need is to grab the e30 in tank unit and then do the wiring - something like this.

well the cars back in scotland, and i'm down in oxford, so i can't check lol. but assuming its there, then it looks like it shouldn't be to much bother

you need an e30 4 cylinder inj. engine in tank sender/pump. make sure you get the two e30 plugs with a bit of wire still on them to solder in!

cheers murran, i'll get on ebay and have a look

this is the only sort of thing i can find

thats the one, decent price too, tho you might get one slightly cheaper on e30zone. dont forget to ask for the two plugs with a bit of wire on them!

kl my mates got an account on there so i'll get him to have a look

looks like i've got the fuel pump sorted, complete will plugs and a bit of wire, on its way from Tim. He's also sorting me out with some 323 front calipers, for added stopping power.

You'll be needing vented discs too.

yeah, any recommendations on good value ones? and pads?

I use Greenstuff pads as the brake dust is pretty minimal and Tarox discs.

brakes international.

for the discs. delivered mine in 2 days
pads you can either use what youve got in now or go something like.....

i re-used my old pads when i went to 323i stuff. but after about 500 miles ended up with an awful brake viabration, so just put up with it for months. then we had an elise in at work for the complete grooved/drilled set up and new red stuff pads..... the old pads were green stuff and not even 1/4 worn so ive bunged them in mine as theyre the same pads..... viabration was gone in 100 miles! braking much improved.

cheers boys, yeah i've heard some good reports about green stuff pads so might go with them. maybe get some ebay specials drilled and grooved discs

Drilling and grooving just weakens them a bit, makes them more likely to crack etc, so unless you are planning to make the car a track beast the standard vented discs are fine. I have never managed to make my brakes fade on a trackday - brakes international discs with ferodo ds2500 pads initially then some brembo discs off ebay with wilwood calipers/pads.

Go for standard discs and I second brakes international (normally I propose them but Murran beat me to it this time!)

haha ok cheers i'll do that then, and they aint a bad price either
