M30 5spd

[Jean]

Numbers from a "pre-test". I am not sure what the upper limit for NO(x) is for 91 535/735i cars....

[Jean]

Not good for these motors anyway....

Alot on Mye28 about them, nothing very good...

Yeah I read that too, I was considering it from the ease of installation
perspective vs. the stock huge box :)

[Jean]

Dude, it has to almost press against the head and the corner of the radiator. Not exactly a perfect fit in my book lol

On another note, E32/E34 airbox is f-ing huge. It's not exactly an easy fit in the bay... I ruined one box today (lower section), but picked up another today to try and fit it tomorrow.

What the heck are you talking about?!?!?!
It fit's perfectly in the e30 bay. I even use the stock e34 velocity stack.

Of course K&N filter is not CARB legal

Congratulations dude! I had lost track of this thread and just saw that you got it running.

Grudge is heads up so we can race each other I think we get to pick who we run against. Ill race you: )

[Jean]

Ok they have test and tunes every Friday its 100 it used to be50 so fuck that. You get as many passes as you want and they prep the track.
On Saturdays you get three qualifing passes before eliminations its $25.

Or we can go september 13 its 35 bucks and heads up grudge racing that sounds like fun.I want my brother to bring his car I wanna see if I can beet his firebird again with his new mods.

The E/T series si done for the year so grudge night would be the best bet.

$100 deal is too rich for my blood right now, $50 would have been doable. So, I guess it will have to be saturday with 3 passes for $25 or Sept 13th. But, is Grudge Racing = bracket racing?

Congratulations man, looks like all the patience and hard work has paid off! Props for doing this the right way.

I appreciate all the time you've taken to document your build, I've really enjoyed this thread and its been a great motivation to stick an m30 under the hood of my 4door.

Looks likes it was a lot of fun, so now enjoy it! and lets see what the chipped ECU will do for it....

Thanks man! I tried to document the minor things too, most of the stuff has already been documented by others but I figure having it all in one thread might help others with the same swap.

ya 1 qualifying Lap blows. I know I could get into the low 14s if I play with my launch.

[Jean]

Cool. 1 pass and you are done is not going to be worth it, i'll need a couple passes to figure out how to launch it w/o sitting there spinning tires since this isn't AWD lol

[416stroker]

BDK - cool, i'll consider this.

416 - yeah, last time I went was years ago and I believe it was on Wedesday, I could only get 2 or 3 runs as I had to put a dial in on my car on how fast I think it would go... I think it was bracket racing? I was out after my 2nd run as I ran faster. I don't want to do that again.

Its worse now. When I went with my car I made 1pass before eliminations. Test and tune would be the best bet. But I used to bracket race on sat. When I was in highschool because They put vht down that was the only day my old Plymouth woundnt do funnycar burn outs off the line lol. I have friend that still dose it ill c when the next race is and if they still have a street class
