Hi Guys

Got some here 07 8462972 Cheers Mike

Can you still supply m20 ones ,they work really well

Classic old videos of how much effort went into making our race cars :-)

Bummer there is no sound it may explain a few things... Please feel free to add comments of your insight from those who know more about cars than me.

The bit I do know about is on part one at 3:15 the dude has a Commodore 64 computer that they are designing it with .. ha ha ha!

just seen all the crash testing was done at the factory,so no need for you guys to conduct tests at the track

We are counting down to Pukekohe this Sunday 8th Janyuary 2012 and there are a few cars missing. If you can help the Kids we would love to see you at Pukekohe. Please check the Link and join the BMW entrants in helping Kids In Cars Charity this Sunday, many thanks.

Its been a good week!

Thanks to Targa passing and putting the off road racing prep ive been involved with on the back burner I got to spend the weekend in the shed.

Engine is in!! Was expecting the rear gearbox mounts to be completely wrong with the M52 but turns out they bolted up to some unused mounting holes, Score! The gear stick even comes out of the tunnel at the right place so no cutting required. Also I thought the power steering system wasn't going to mount up but again but BMW are a pack of geniuses! The M52 unit bolts up to the engine and compact steering rack perfectly. Altho I do plan on using a Z3 rack so this may turn out differently.... we will see. I Just have to pack up the engine mounts a tad and drop the sway bar a little to help with a small clearence issue.

Im keeping the cage but cant use the floor mounted pedal box. Not cool and not sure if I will even use a pedal box at the moment. A lot of money. Have got a sparco seat, have made up my own alloy seat brackets as the sparco ones are over $200. I made a set for less than $30. Will need to chop into the tunnel to get the seat more central as its about four inches off the steering wheel center line. Quite a bit so may even have to move the wheel towards the outside of the car. stink

Still cant find the camera but will have some photos in the weekend.

do you still have the 4 cyl sway bar in the car? if so change to 6 cyl type they have a deeper bend in them and you wont need to raise your engine,keep eng as low as possible,6 cyl will bolt straight in

may have something,this should be an 8 bolt diff correct?

getting some made,should be ready after xmas,these will have a keyway and be adjustable,if you can wait that long,i can send your beam bushes tomorrow

can do james, just give me a call 078462972,mike

cheers fellas time to finish work drink beer and get my 30 birthday blowies from the missis

update PROGRESS!!

nice, you've done a great job on swapping it from a convertible to a coupe

what color you looking at painting it?

paint will be fridge white,cant decide livery yet ,will wait to see what sponsors i can get aboard

mind you a spoiler that big you'll need to get clearance from the Auckland airport before hitting the back straight at Puke.

yea it is quite loud

freaking badass Mike good to see more sweet and fast bmw's in the open class.

dont know if its fast yet

Very nice.

Would like to know more about how you got on with the ECU etc.

about 10 hours frigging around once i got wiring diagrams,the early ews seems easier to fool than the later type,i had the key chip and ews unit to run the ecu

Should pull 300hp fairly easily id imagine? Or are you running the factory computer as well?

Reliability is definitely most important in that type of racing

yep factory ecu

Thats awesome, Any ideas on what sort of HP your aiming for? Engine mods?

just std atm extractors free it up abit

about 300 hp ? need a re map and dyno,should be reliable kept close to std,may look at the endurance stuff coming up 12 hr etc

Nice to see you here mate

Good pics!

cheers Jason

That's awesome!

What did you do for the bellhousing?

used m62 auto bell housing bolted to sandwich plate
