Thanks all. I was hoping to find some software that has the ability to adjust smoke limit, fuel pressure, injection time, injection mass, boost pressure etc. I feel I'm just missing a few key words in my Google searches to find what I'm looking for. Before anyone gets worried, I am aware of the risks associated with this. I do appreciate all the plan b options for getting someone else to tune it. Hadn't looked into galletto so will have a look.

I've got a diesel e53 that I'd some day like to get some more power out of. From my brief Google search the only thing I've found is winols. I haven't delved into it yet. But it seems I'll need to learn a fair bit before even getting started (unless the maps are easily found) Is there any other software that's more defined? Don't mind spending the money. Ultimately I'll probably end up paying someone to do it, but still interested in learning what options are out there

Head over to realoem.com and you'll be able to find your answers

Which M3? Swaybars can usually be defined by diameter Axles for e36 m3s come in a few different sizes. Unsure about other m3s

Would've assumed you wouldn't be making too much more power than an s50. I'd get the s50 injectors cleaned up. Failing that msel in Auckland have a good selection of injectors

Any reason for not going with a round driveshaft hoop?
-
I've got some s50 itbs and an adapter to fit it to an m50/2 head. If you wanted to go down that route pm me Bummer about the current motor.

Did he intented to put it up for such a short auction

I was the one who bitched out at $4200. Definitely a great deal. Almost seemed too good to be true

What setup are you using for casting? Great looking piece of kit

Anyone tried D1 Racing slotted rotors?

I have no problem at all with people risking their lives for my entertainment. These people are helping "evolution". They are actively trying to eliminate the weak, dumb, and or unlucky -

This made me question if you could warp a rotor -
How much do you sell the 420g's for?

If you have the money https://shop.snapon.com/product/TechAngle-Models-(2%-Accuracy)/1-2"-Drive-TechAngle-Electronic-Torque-Wrench-(15-300-ft-lb)/ATECH3FR300B It's the only snap on tool I own. Brings me alot of joy every time I use it. Costs enough that I also don't want to use it as a hammer or a pry bar. Also in the market for a 1/4 inch torque wrench

I've got one in my e53 that I was planning on changing/upgrading. The screen isn't the best.

I've got some 16x8's if they'll work for you

Any recommendations for moving a driveable vehicle from Christchurch to Hamilton? Currently don't have the time to fly down myself

For 6 cylinders - Yes on a single vanos. No on dual vanos

I've started using npd's 100+. From the terapa outlet there definitely isn't 8.2-10+% ethanol. My means of testing is the car cruising in steady state with no ethanol petrol gives me 15.4 afr. With gull 98 (e10?) I see 16.0+ afr (gauge only reads to 16.0). With npd I've been seeing 15.4. This is an open loop system. The ecu doesn't see any feedback from O2 sensor or knock sensor(doesn't have knock sensors). Don't get me wrong this isn't a lab test. I'm sure other variables come into play. But from my limited knowledge I don't believe there is ethanol in their fuel. Interested to see what deteriorates with the fuel. There are signs up warning about plastic fuel tanks and other stuff. Will pay more attention next time

What are you trying to achieve? And what sort of budget do you have?
-
Why do you need an authority card? If those injector resistors are the same as plain old m50/2 ones it should be fine still. I've had them in much worse condition and still running. Might pay to measure the resistance. I might also have some spare M3 injectors. Will pm you tomorrow if I find em

Got one in Hamilton $50
-
Have some in Hamilton. Or can have a go at getting your wheel bearing out. Just got a very stubborn wheel bearing out of an M3 trailing arm.

I hope that pic isn't massive
-
No idea. Is there a way to tell? I've had a guy that mentioned this when he was trying to scan it Thanks I'd definitely be keen. What's the trick for removing the stepper motors? The prongs going into pcb seem rather stuck. Do they crush the pin and push through? Thanks @hqstu
