After spending a whole summer with the car, we've decided to make a change to the differential final drive ratio. The car currently has a 2.93 and was a blast to drive, but we think we can refine the car and make it just a little better!

Story time. Last August I moved to Calgary from the U.S. Your E30 was one of the first cars I saw on the road when I got into town. After 30 hours of driving (and 3 hours of getting reamed by border patrol), seeing a stupidly clean E30 put the biggest smile on my face. 6 months later you pop up in my recommended! Keep up the good work guys, you deserve way more attention.

I have a 2.79 in my early E30 and I was playing around with a gear calculator to see what RPM I'd be turning at, say, 100MPH with a 0.50 6th gear. What I got was 2K RPM haha. Your car sounds badass dude, props.

When u engine swap a car with an ls3 do u use the wiring harness from the car that the engine came from or do u need a custom one

@slightlyMADcustoms 3 года назад

The body harness that runs the lights still runs the lights. The engine harness needs to be for the LS. Can be a factory one or aftermarket.

@clemencepain9963 3 года назад

Your car makes me want to get an E30 for myself but then I remember that I live in a country where driving one down the street makes you a target. I'll my dream through these videos 😢 btw thank you for the music links.

@slightlyMADcustoms 3 года назад

Aww you gotta find a way to get one!

@clemencepain9963 3 года назад

Getting one is not too much of a problem. The problem is that E30s are the Holy Grail for Spinning in South Africa. So the moment you drive out in a clean e30 like that... pretty much say bye to it

@slightlyMADcustoms 3 года назад

Gotcha. Darn :/

@MintyFreshGarage 3 года назад

I can smell this video... I also have the 2.93 in my car with a TR6060 trans, its safe to say that 6th gear is useless unless you're doing 90mph, but the lower gears feel super peppy.

@slightlyMADcustoms 3 года назад

You get good mileage tho!

@desmomotodesmomoto2033 3 года назад

At same 120 km/hr, what is the rpm for a Corvette with factory engine and transmission ....etc? Just to compare with yours,

@slightlyMADcustoms 3 года назад

My car with the 2.93 was about 1600 or 1700 I believe

@strathslsylli3653 2 года назад

Hi guys, I have a e30 V8. My rpm is way to high. So the e30 325 diff is okey?

@slightlyMADcustoms 2 года назад

Your reading is too high to compared the actual RPM? If so you need a Dakota digital tach adapter box to alter the reading to read correctly with your cluster. Or your RPM is literally to high while driving on the highway? If so check your diff ratio and consider going for a lower ratio. Something like 2.89 , 3.25 , 3.50. If your e30 was an automatic car originally, it’s likely you have a 4.10 ratio which will be pretty high for highway driving

@steel330i 9 месяцев назад

I’m using an LS1/T56 combo for my e30 swap and a z3 torsen 3.46 rear diff… do you think that this is overkill or just a loss of mpg on highway?

@slightlyMADcustoms 9 месяцев назад

Depending on your tire size it might be a challenge to launch without big tire spin. Your hwy cruising would be a little higher than I would prefer, but it’s completely up to you and how you plan to drive the car. If it’s more of a city driver then it’s not a big deal and will be so much fun off the line

@steel330i 9 месяцев назад

Also apologies if you mentioned this in a previous video, but what did you decide to run for AC? coolant expansion? Power steering? and Oil catch can?

@slightlyMADcustoms 9 месяцев назад

- no AC in the car because I’m in Canada, and I didn’t want the hassle + weight addition - aftermarket universal expansion tank off the radiator. Tucked between the engine and the frame rail - GM power steering pump adapted to E30/e36 steering rack using chase bays fittings - no oil catch can, just recirculated into intake

@steel330i 9 месяцев назад

I’m looking at an expansion tank from CAtuned… and good to know on the Chase Bay lines… I’m using the Sikky kit for almost all
