Was wondering when you were going to stop posting those stupid E46's :P

Nice brakes. What did they come from?

Head gasket and oil pump shaft is the things you should do something about but other than that it seems to work great!

How the hell does he get an M54 to stay together at 800 HP?

[Nisse Järnet]

No, M54 :)

That project sounds fun :D

Not E30...but my friends 800hp 330xi time attack car :)
Going to race him with my ix later :D

Turbo S54 POWA?

I've been thinking for a while that I'd like to take an E46 M3 shell, swap in E46 xi front suspension and drop an LS engine with Trailblazer SS oil pan and front drive hardware into it. If I use an iron block engine and turbo it, 1200 HP is available on a production shortblock.

My ix is starting to look like a car again :) have to change out the seats though...

I'd like a rebuilt transmission... you're a baller ;)

I'd love to build an M73 (or maybe M70B54 frankenmotor) E34 with Getrag 265 manual trans. A Metric Mechanic rebuild for that, especially with the billet internal shift linkage components, would be great, but that costs as much as the 560G six speed for the V12... :-?

Yeah well, that's the paradox right? I used to have unlimited time and no money. Now, money isn't necessarily unlimited, but i don't have free time.

I'dlike to aactually accomplish something this year though. I've been working on it for 4 years and all i have so far is a bunch of parts! I'm thinking I'd like to get the mk60 dsc system retrofitted this year.

[nando]

Basically. Lol.

But it will be like a new car when complete. :)

[The Dark Side of Will]

And has only been touched three times since then ;)

What did you use to clean those parts? Looks very clean!

The transfercase is new, the trans was rebuilt by drivegear.com a year ago.
