The starter looks like it matches the flywheel perfectly,so i dont know if its a cressida clutch and flywheel or not.

Hi Hentie. Weet nie of jy al reggekom het met jou vrae nie. Dalk is jy al klaar met die conversion vi al wat ek weet. Eks ook van plan om een of ander tyd die 7m rigting te gaan,maar sover maak ek nog parte bymekaar. Oor jou vrae:
1: die verkoeler sal wees die 328i bmw s'n
2: weet nie
3: die fans wat blykbaar die beste werk is 2 elektriese 8" fans net agter die grill.
Dit kom nou uit ouens se monde wat dit al gedoen het waar ek weer gaan soek het vir raad.
As jy meer wil hoor oor wat hul my gese het, soek i thread "18R na 7mge". Daars bietjie meer detail.
Pm my met jou vordering. Dalk het jy al weer op goed afgekom wat hulle my nie van gese het nie.

Jis manne, hoop julle ombuings vorder goed. Sien nou eers julle post hier.

Hier is nog 'n handjievol manne wat met die 7m's speel.
Mark - Gunta
Everdt - Bulletjie -3
Dawie
Hoppy en Thys het ook kennis van die 7m's
Daar is nog.... :think: kan nie nou onthou nie

Hier is bietjie inligting oor die verkoeler en die fans:

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=29614" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Jy kan die aircon behou, as jy kans sien om die airconrads te skuif na die onderkant van die cab.

Laat weet in watse kondisie julle 7M's is wat julle het. (Supra of Cressida, ens)
Daar is 'n paar belangrike dinge om te doen nog voor julle die enjin laat insak.

Sterkte.

Ja, dit sal interessant wees. Ek wonder of dit gedoen kan word. Selfs die BMW 2 liter turbo diesel kan al lekker werk, maar terwyl mens besig is hoekom nie die 335 twin turbo nie - :twisted:
