spot the overfuelling from the extra injector~~~~

Seats are Jamex reclinables, stretchmarks are from the fabric being extremely tight rather than loose! Shifter is right behind the steering wheel in that pic engine pics are in the perf. section, the pics all had random names from the camera so I had just started posting from the start :banghead:

legality~~~~~~ sorry for the blur

Hi all, I have used the rear of this kit for a custom job (my car) and we are keen to give the rest of the kit a happy home. Designed for Facelift E30's, Side Skirts to fit a 4 door (can be modded its only a bit of f'glass) I have a rear, not a matching part of the kit but still looks the part. Will be sad to see the whole lot go for $450. Also have a front lip that fits onto the bottom of the sheetmetal front of the NON F/L E30, let me know if interested.

ThanksThere has been some minimization of the allowable rotation of the factory differential (READ : Locked Diff) :pimp: until a suitable replacement can be found or I go to england and get one myself Sorry again proper pictures will come tomorrow kinda havent proved the engines in there yet have I! :banghead:

Yep we could work something out if you wanna do a trade, your brakes will fit under my wheels.

OK more answers - ECU would definitely work with a stock M20, but I would think that you would only want it if you do something to it that is outside the scope of the factory computer. If you want more power, put a turbo on the hot side of the engine THEN put a computer in. Funnily enough, the chrome wheels will be out next, with either a 5 stud conversion or serious body widening to combat traction problems! It is amazing the difference slotting the rotors makes, the certifier was laughing before he tried out my brakes when I said they were still stock size but was quietly amazed by the stopping power. Highly recommended upgrade. Like the Race brakes speel says! You could buy from them, and I did try but my wallet wasnt that large! So I had them custom made by a legendary engineer, I can price up having more done if interested. do have the front piece with the Alpina name and pinstriping on it, but I painted over it becoz it was black with gold pinstriping. The car still has the Alpina stripes right down the sides but the plonker I bought it from painted over them so you can still see the ridges!

Mirrors came from england, got the ones with indicators so I could shave of the ugly side repeaters on the body. :bounce:

Hi again all, The ECU will be fully tunable with software ANYONE can use at home. I will keep you updated with my install and for release dates. It will do any size injectors, almost any ignition system (i will be ditching the dizzy rotor setup and using 1 coil for each cylinder for good spark) Multiple auxiliary outputs and easy transition to NOS solenoid control. I am working on (in my own words) one of the most sophisticated water injection systems available - control is completely integrated into the ECU No dyno as yet as we are an electronics company so we will most likely need to outsource this.

Alpina wheels were the first to go at the start 2 years ago for $1000 - they were in v.good condition Engine was pretty naffed - was a c1 2.3 so just a spiffy head job. It has since gone into another car for a repower. Sorry About the picture, DOES NOT do it any justice (phone cam ugghhhhh)! Will pull out my good photos tonight. Yep the ECU we are designing would be great for your M20 turbo, is it running yet? Hey if the guy with the big brakes is interested in selling them still let me know! This car is already certed by Neil Fraser w/ custom slotted discs it brakes pretty well, but you know theres an extra 60+ kgs at the front! (i.e the intercooler pipes and front bumper DO NOT like speedbumps!). Just a few weeks ago cut the manifold in half and flipped it around - using the old log style PERFECT for turbocharging) Has Custom water injection for keeping the Knock Monster at bay - this is another thing our ECU will do EXTREMELY WELL - not that im pushing it or anything! Ive been told its the only certed one in NZ so far, I have seen others try and fail (.....PATIENCE is the word). Right now I have a fibreglass bodykit part that goes under the NON F/L chrome bumper and hides that ugly anti-stone chip sheetmetal bit - makes the old ones look a million times better. Also have mtec 2 replica side skirts and front bumper - side skirts for 4 door. like my genuine mtec 1 front for $40??? i feel sorry for the guy really..

Hi All, Just thought you all might like to see that it is getting done out there, no need to resort to the land of the rising sun for real power. M30 3.2L from 633CSi, Garrett T34B turbo. Ive done it all the hard way, so if you wanna know anything about doing this shout out. I will post engine Pics ASAP. For anyone thinking about this - My work will soon be putting out a new ECU on the market that will rival MOTEC and is perfect for this job - my car will be the first test subject! The body was an Alpina C1, I have some parts I will put up in the for sale e.g. bodykit parts that came off it, I could also be persuaded to have my engine mounts copied if anyone is brave enough! Cheers, Damo.
