Hi all, have my old 2002 motor getting in the way - if someone wants to make an offer then please do so, if not it will go into deep dark storage Also have a bunch of parts including manifold, brakes, interior bits, some glass, rear touring seats, headlights, kidney grille etc etc if you want any of it and are willing to take all of it (and you have a 2002 to use it on) then you can have it - otherwise it all goes to the tip, trying to stop the garage looking like a wrecking yard
-
Binned - guess noone really needed them or they would have been picked up
-
I got mine off ebay germany - if you can handle the shipping cost that would be your best bet for the infinity style too I think.
-
OK free to a good home or they go in the skip next weekend!
-
Give me a few weeks to get the knock sensors in, and we will check 12psi + in there and see what happens
-
190kw and 490nm at 6psi in 4th (over 1400nm in 2nd/3rd but who knows how that works), see the power thread fro the dyno sheet.
-
Good spotting - the doors are PFL door that had the mouldings filled in, that needs pulling out to line up with the guards, then the doors need to come out a mm or so to sit 100% flush. the aerodynamics havent worried me too much yet though
-
OK called me on that - try these: Engine bay photos next weekend
-
OK looks like thats my weekend job - I have a couple of dyno videos, will post them when I can.
-
Hi all - Took some photos with the M3-ish body and skirts. Thinking of selling it now, have some other cars waiting to be re-powered, and I tend to lose interest when something works! Although I change my mind every time I get in and drive it EDIT: FYI im a crap photographer, and the bonnet is only jacked up because the new turbo is a little bigger than the first one, doesnt quite fit under (just in case you thought I was a ricer)
-
Dont think I am brave enough to twist the whistle knob up to 20 Originally we thought it was overboosting to 10~11 but that was because the wastegate pressure feed melted and we never actually checked top boost after that. So I know it can take at least that much so will go and have a bash at the track then try the bigger PSI wastegate spring and put it back on the dyno.
-
Yes rear wheel HP as per dyno sheet, and with my own ECU hardware, so it was as much a test of that as it is of the motor! What is my approximate flywheel HP anyone know a good conversion for the bmw/m30 setup?
-
OK finally got its first dyno tune: On 4.5PSI spring (peak 6psi boost) - 190.37kW Maximum torque 979ft/lbs at 3200 rpm in 2nd, 358 ft/lbs in 4th
-
Will try to come along to the next bimmersport meet or drive?
-
You are not wrong, it probably is a tad oversized. I do get fantastic intake temps though, and the pressure drop isn't really a concern with the low boost I run. Once she is tuned properly I will get a feel for the lag issue, at the moment its already a handful to drive
-
Yes Custom RS's, were 17x7 and 17x8 5x114's, I re-drilled to 5x120 and used 3.5" outer lips on one pair, left the others standard and repainted the centres. runs 235/40 fronts and 275/40 rears
-
Only running 4.5psi waste gate spring and thats scary enough right now on the bumometer...
-
OK, finally a few updates (excuse the terrible photos) - 5 stud e36 suspension - BBS RS 17x10.5 & 17x8's - E30 M3 guards - fibreglass - fibreglass boot & bonnet - Garrett GT35R BB turbo & 50mm external wastegate - wilwood 6 pot calipers & 330mm rotors - fixed back seats with head restraints - revised front and rear coilover set - front and rear strut braces Think thats it? Been for a few more tuning drives, really starting to put a smile on my face now. Next is dyno time...
-
road or race, coilover or standard? I run 800 lb rear / 600 lb front currently but I think that will change soon now that I have gone to the e36 suspension setup.
-
howdy all, The E30 335ti has undergone its next round of upgrades, so some spare bits are being sold off. This includes my blue vinyl Jamex seats (they were the dogs proverbials back in the day I had them made) as I have gone to fixed back seats. The rails were modified to a level which passed certification, seat mount areas made of decent steel. Worth heaps alone even if you wanted them to put new seats on: The link: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=165365495

Anything on E36 front coilover struts? adjustable or non is fine.
