Progress under the hood

[kroberts]

I work on it a little every day after work. I made a wire harness for the relocated ABS pump, it came out pretty good I think. I use lots of heat-shrink tubing. I'm almost done attaching the heat reflective foil to the firewall. I got a set of the Treehouse eyeball arms for header clearance.






Slow progress is better than no progress at all.

Sweet, what's the idea behind relocating the ABS?

It should give him plenty of room for a CAI.

I had to fabricate a mount plate for the ABS pump. The mount plate was a PITA. I can weld...but it aint pretty. I end up doing a lot of grinding and sanding. I used the mount cups that I cut out of the driver's side fender. I did it to provide a little extra clearance for a cold air box. Yes, I'm going to run A/C. Does anyone remember the red E30 M3 cabrio clone in Bimmer magazine last year? October issue, Frank Fahey built it for some rich guy ($80k). The pictures of that engine compartment are inspirational!

I'm going to bend up a set of brake lines next.

You guys really that interested in moving the ABS? I've talked to a lot of people about deleting it, but moving it could be nice, too.

That's a really nice job, also. Awesome paint and heatshields.

Looks great. Post pics when you get the lines bent up.

If you don't I will lol.

ABS is in the way for me, everything is crowded on the driver side and nothing is on the passenger side.

Except I would probably move mine where the washer fluid tank would stick. I got m3 bracketry in the way up where you have yours, and my diagnostics port is mounted there.

looks bad ass!
