    But I have saved almost enough to order the manifold, which is 520 bucks which took a bit and I keep almost buying the 20-100 dollar parts that won't take me long at all to save for.

    Know what I mean?

    Sent from the future. Or my phone, who knows.

    Just keep saving man! Gotta get the manifold. What mani you going with?

            Maybe? Where would it be? And could I replace all my fuel lines with like hard lines that bend?

              It'd be between your fuel tank, and the motor. Go figure right?

              Posted Image

              Located behind the passenger rear wheel. by the driveline. Can't miss it. (dunno if E30's have this)

              And yes, you can change fuel lines. not that you'd really need to, unless there all rusty/corroded.

                  Late model e30's do not have an inline. Only early 318's do.

                  Going with a blunttech tubular manifold, thing is gorgeous!

                    Good information. I like my inline fuel pump. Means when I'm broke an low on gas, I'm not frying the pump. (which is bad for an intank pump. If you run the tank low on gas, as it uses the gas as a passive heat transfer.

                      Spent another 2 hours at least sanding tonight. I'm never going to paint another car again... Haha. Hopefully It will be painted by the end of the week.

                                  Soo.. I have a ecu from a 318. Is the 88 pin connector the same as a 325i? They are both 88, but I swear mine is different.
