E30 325 touring

[VAPORBLADE]

hot.

Slowly, but slowly... I need more time.



But its WIP, as you can see:






I was pretty surprised, because there was getrag240 gearbox inside with old M20B25 engine, dont know why. I cant use that gearbox in my combination. Can you imagine, how soon torque will kill that gearbox... i dont want to try that.

So, i have plans to use ZF gearbox from E34 525 24v, i think thats better idea than small M20B20 gearbox.


Maybe i have to clean my engineroom little bit, or paint it..






EDIT:



i found some old picture, taken by previous owner:



Where the hell can i find wheels like this!!

Looks good. That sounds like a good idea rather than putting a 240 behind it. That would end in disaster very quickly.

Those wheels look a lot like kershers. But those are three piece and I've never seen them in three piece? http://www.kerscher-tuning.de/raeder/?id=6

Yes, those are Kerschers. Model is New Star:



Its almost like Carmona but 3 piece.

the 240 will be fine with a stock m50, but not once its boosted

[E3024vtouring]

Some updates, maybe next week i will start the engine.



G240 i still behind the engine, but i have G260 to replace it, when 240 is full of shit..(pretty soon, i think) Can i use same driveshaft?

[AC Nico]

were the kerschers 4 or 5 lug?

[E3024vtouring]

They were sold before i buy this car, but i know they were with adapters, so u can use wheels with 4 or 5-lugs, if u have correct adapters. Car is original 4-lug.

[AC Nico]

ahh right i remember. most of the kerscher wheels are with the adapter. do you also know the size he was running?

If i remember correctly, those wheels were 10,5x17" on the rear, cant remember how it was on the front.

Little bit testing, with smaller boost. Im still waiting my new ECU, so i have to be very careful..

[e30slut]

i like you..

yu seem to move right along..


nice

Sexy!

Creetings from Finland. Winter is almost here, and i have lot of things to do. Last season was, how to say, just for testing with those Ebay-parts. Megasquirt V3.0 ECU is inside and works very well, (managing fuel & original M50B25 coil-on-plug system, managed with wasted spark style,, launch control etc.)

So, lets see some pictures from last summer, there you go:

From some meeting:








There was some slipping problem in dyno(because of bad tyres), so we were putting more passengers inside(biggest guys that we found in 2 minutes). Result---> 278hp, with some exhaustheader pressure problems, (because of m#therf#cking chinese turbocharger, turbine AR.48



BadAss:



Yes, i am a liar--->




Those wheels(Brock B1 8,5/10x17") are already sold. Next wheels will be original look banded steel wheels (8,5/10x16") I dont have a pictures, but they look exactly same than those wheels behind the link: http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/show...&postcount=633



Next updates:

-BBK (312x25 / 294x19, E32 750i brake calipers) Like this: http://www.300mm.de/312294mm/312294mm.html

-original taillights

-Bigger turbo(Holset HX40Spr), make some splitted manifold for that turbo, 50mm external wastegate, water/methanol injection? (there is some Coolingmist-kit, but im not sure yet... maybe there is some point, because of 10:1 compression)


-some repairment/update for suspension, bushings etc.

-New gearbox(old one is absolutely dead)

-New clutch kit and flywheel


-and of course some basic cleaning/painting/repairment...


so, lets see what happens.. I hope that i have better and faster car after next winter.
