BMW e23 build

[NegativeCamber]

Do you find the ergonomics weird with regard to the shifter? It's been since 2004 that I drove a manual E23 (so I forget) and the console seems wide enough that it might be kind of a reach.

Anyway, you might be waiting a while for the M30 to blow, especially since you've sorted out the top end oiling.

the shifter ergonomics seem just fine for a car like this. it doesnt feel like a reach, but its no sports car. im not looking to do any motor swaps anytime soon, so i would like it to run forever. i just worry sometimes that it wont pass CA smog, as these early motronics need the motor to be sealed tighter than tight.

yes! That's the combo right there. Nice ride. If this motor ever takes a crap on me, I'll be dumping an m62 in it.

Quote train for this page!

Wowzer

That's what I said when I got the rear wheels to finally clear the fender. With no camber adjustment, it was cutting it close.

All of the above! What a great transportation device you have there

thanks! Going from point A to B now may take a bit longer. Not because its slow but because its more fun to drive.
