Just fabricated one... its only 1mm mild steel so i dont know if it'll do anything, and its waaay more complicated than it should be... just clears the alternator belt too.I think it's actually a little too short, as it isn't indenting the heatshielding under the bonnet, so maybe too much clearance? I'll post some pics up soon... mayb tuesday

More updates.... Fabricated cold airbox... still working on air ducts... Holes drilled in the floor ready to begin constructing rollcage All rust fixed, patched, bogged, rust proofed and painted Left rear door back together

Time for an update... Removed windscreen... now needs a new one thanks to some improper removal techniques Fixed rust in right rear door, just needs painting. In the process of fixing all other rust. Finally got the sunroof bracket out.... found a huge amount of rust under a huge amount of silicone sealant.... Hopefully the car will be done soon so i can get racing this year!

Got the sunroof out at tech today... the mounting bracket was pretty rusty, so i guess thats where my water leak is....

That was with a stuffed thermostat... it was running really rich, around 0.7 Llambda... So it should have maybe 5 more kws now... It was real well looked after too... cambelts every 40,00kms, services every 2000kms...

Nope.... Got some pics of my car today... A little bit of rust to deal with but no biggie..

Just bought a BMW 320i off trademe to turn in to a racecar at tech. I'm doing the motorsport course at WINTEC, so i figured it would be a good project and a great way to get into racing. So far all i've doneis replace the thermostat while i wait for space in the panel shop at tech. Dyno tested with the faulty thermostat at a measly 73kw at the wheels, but hopefully putting in a pod filter soon. Pics to come later
