Hey guys,

I started my new job at SDeuropean BMW/Audi and VW today so if you need any goodies let me know

Anyway this turbo, you think this will be the go??

T04z on trademe

and a maybe a design option pic?

depending the power your after its a 800hp turbo it is the better of the smaller gt range and normal retail is 2700plus

I thought it was kinda cool how it looks like it's abandoned

If you want, I'll try yours out, so you can see how cool it looks

mine looks just as abandoned if not more so, get the block back tomorrow so its all go

Some motivation.... (could use some new rear tyres though... see 2.21 on)

Motivation...

now your talking hanging out to try mine

Fixed that for you

you have good taste my friend :lol:

Ill add a little insight to the article regarding my sh*t box e34 it was done as a parting piss take based on what was going on at the mag and the direction it was taking, the two main people that created the mag and its direction over the years myself and the editor could see it was turning to crap so when i left so did he 3 months later as with his right hand man and started his own mag.

So any comments i made in that article were done to get an reaction and to show how people take themselves and their cars way to seriously but the the reference to Britten and Munro was true we have a become sheep in many ways following trends not setting them and due to the net no longer have the ability to think for ourselves or outside the square so the way i see it is "dont just do things to make others happy do what they will remember" or let results speak for themselves.

sorry ray for my dribble now lets see that 36 v8 make the jappers look stupid

his boy Timmy has taken over that roll now in between crashing the NZV8

Come on Steve. Help them out for old times sake.

tried that but i don't know crap thus why i tell those who really want to know not those who think they know as im sure the net is always right despite someone that's be doing it coming up 30 yrs( thus why Ive been writing a book), so i guess you could say im a tad over up start little.......you fill in the rest

but best of luck all the same at-least the BMW will add some class to the drifting scene

Steve `Crunchy` Murch

10 years as NZPC tech advisor certainly gives Crunchy the credentials.

close was over 12 and for free and dvd's and other mags i left when the mag turned to crap as you see it now, its now targeted at 12-22 year old caps on backwards wana be car enthusiasts.

Yeah I just found that out... needed 25psi to make 550hp at 14.7air/fuel on 76lb@58psi injectors lol but running fuel line psi@100lb it gave me like 1200hp :S:S

hahahaha thats funny 14.7 at any boost equals a dead engine and 100psi fuel pressure blows the pin-tile needles of their seats anything past 85 psi is a bad idea !!

great program......not

it also shows you buying all the best bits to build an engine doesn't guarantee you results

the calculator never decides what you get your engine does ive used many software packages and the outcome isnt close to what it said some arent bad for head flow and cam spec like performance trends but the last program i tried with a twin turbo nissan v8 it said at 10lb boost it would make 380hp.....in real life it made 890hp and 900 ft/lb of torque im sure you can see the problem.

looks good and if you get sick of them would look just as good on my e34

Hi Everyone, It has been a while since my last post and life has been busy. Have moved to Brisbane for work so now commute part time in each country. Have the car in workshop at TTT Automotive where Tim is running the headers and fitting the fuel tank and running fuel lines etc plus a few bits and pieces that i dropped the ball on..

Hopefully in a few weeks we will be able to run up the new computer and get her going..

Thanks for all the views and will post new pics soon.

hes a good guy Tim hes one of my customers

gets pretty tight for the turbo setup have you got room to stand the motor up? i did it on mine and gained a heap of room

Ive got a megasquirt sitting on the desk next to me atm, was planning to use that, Im a DIY extremist lol with the right information ANYONE can do almost anything IMO, thanks Crunchy, will definitely PM you if I run into issues

a lot of bmw guys have used them and had success and if its the right price then go for it just make sure the unit works ok before wiring it in theres a guy on trademe that sells them maybe worth talking to when the time comes

Definately going to get it balanced... wouldnt want that thing coming off or blowing to bits

And your builds Premo EXTREMO of course yours will pull hard!

im a big fan of diy builds so if i can be of help just ask, with the ecu thing and what to run it can be at times easier to go aftermarket and there's been some cheap ones on trademe of late which would make it a ton easier to tune when you strap the turbo on.

i made my own flywheel getting it down to 5kg and even with the big cams and same car as yours i didnt losse a lot of down low pull but i would suggest getting your rebalanced with the pressure plate.

correct me if im wrong but i thought it was a banned fuel by MANZ

Choice!

Another reason to move to the Botany area!!

I wonder if I can convince Slater Fabrications to move in as well??

wouldnt hold your breath on that one

They might be yanks, but pretty sure they got that part sorted lol. maybe i wasnt quite clear what they needed to know. see below

obv knows where the M42 goes, but they dont have the M40. just want to know if its mounted any further forward or back than each other if anyone knows.

thanks

sits pretty much in the same place as with gearbox just wider due to the twin cam

dam good looking wagon dude

its a t3 flange and you have a lot of work to do before you use them its chinese gem and not too flash on the inside ive spent many hours cleaning them up before use they also crack so weld extra tags around the pipes to the main flange to the head, but they are cheap around 100us and you couldnt make one for that

are you saying i can get it cheaper on ebay or there are cheaper brake kits on ebay.

AP racing don't sell direct to the public

And i want a whole kit not bits and peices

look and you will find

Ok , parts list for brakes; The CP5005-3 is a competition brake kit and it is a complete kit including:-

Calipers

Discs

Mounting brackets

Mounting bells

Nuts, bolts and washers

Aeroquip hose set

Brake pads

at a price of $4360 incl from race brakes

if you can see anything i've missed please fell free to let me know.

it would pay to shop around they will charge you top dollar theres other places a lot cheaper, try ebay

Yeah but not very well, also not sure if the EBC is working correctly.

that i wouldnt worry about until its tuned just run gate setting of whatever the spring is do the frilly bits after

does it run
