John - 21k but minus the production costs and postage which was probably about 10k, and this was over a year too.

Need to swap the inlet for a 325i one rob, frees up some substantial bhp for next to nothing

Off an E30 or E36?

I know nothing about these cars, don't even know if camber adjustment is available

Off an E36 325i but its not a straight swap.Needs heavily modified to fit.

Alpina527 off the BM forums supplys them.Get 1 and an enlarged 325i TB,free flowing filter(DaveF kit are highly recommended),free flowing exhaust and a remap and you will see a genuine 230+bhp.Really opens the car up as they are restricted massively.

Do you know if its had the nikasil block changed??Easy to find out,have a look down from the passenger side where the gearbox joins the block.Should be a brown metal tag if the blocks been changed.

You don't have to modify the M50 manifold to make it fit, it bolts straight up. The problem is all the pipes and shit don't fit so you will need to make up your own, which is a massive pain and not worth it.

rear camber, toe and front toe is adjustable.
rear camber adjustment is tiny though so you can get adjustable tie rods.

There is a brown metal tag on the gearbox close to the engine. That it ?

No it's like a little tab

Bit of progress today, christ BMW's have alot of crap in them, that pile is just from the boot, not the rear seats or door cards etc although they are now removed.

i'm predicting the speakers alone being 20kg as there huge!
