MMP M62B44 Build Project "Jack-N-Coke"

[kye]

I've read this thread twice start to finish now.

Once before and now after acquiring a 97 540i 6 with smashed left doors. How much $ would you estimate in extra parts to swap it into my 90 e30? I guess a high ballpark figure is what I'm looking for. If you have a second I'd appreciate your opinion. I know you fabricated a lot of stuff but any estimate would help.

Thanks for the sweet pictures can't wait for burnout videos.

The radiator overflow tank, what's it from?

It's from a Nissan pickup, not sure make or model. I found it on flebay. It was cheap right size and local...



I put everything back together and ran the car. Everything ran fine but I'm going to need a smaller belt for now.

Got an email today From Garagistic, There sending out a new tach thingy.
So I should have the harness wired and finished by this weekend!
WooHoo!

But In all the chaos going on I some how smacked the top of my middle knuckle on my right hand, and the damn thing blew up like a frigging balloon.

Item 1:
"Duel":



"Dual":







Item 2:

You can use 3 relays to control 2 fans such that at low speed the motors are in series and at high speed the motors are in parallel. It's a fairly elegant design that GM uses all the time.

"Low speed" relay:
Primary high side: low speed fan control
Primary low side: ground
Secondary high side: Fan 1 fuse
Secondary normally OPEN (NO) low side: Fan 1 high side

"High speed 1" relay:
Primary high side: high speed fan control
Primary low side: ground
Secondary high side: Fan 1 low side
Secondary Normally CLOSED (NC) low side: Fan 2 high side
Secondary Normally OPEN low side: high current ground

"High speed 2" relay:
Primary high side: high speed fan control
Primary low side: ground
Secondary high side: Fan 2 fuse
Secondary NO low side: Fan 2 high side

Fan 2 low side goes to a high current ground.
This assumes that your low and high speed fan switches are on the high side of the relays. If you have a switched ground via an electronic controller, then connect that to the primary low side, and connect hot in run (or fan enable) to the primary high sides.

Edit: Dug up a diagram:

great work man! I know you self learned yourself and all..(damn I love TPB cant wait for the new season coming out this fall) .but now get rid of all that BMW mess of wires and lets go MS2 and tune this beast! nahhhhh screw that I want to see some Action videos first:twisted:

Small but exciting update today. So after "Self smarting myself" on electronics.



I was able to build myself a dual relay, dual heat sensor harness with high/low fan speed setup for 2 fans. One pusher and one puller.

I was able to build, test, and finalize the build with dual fuses and controlled by the ignition switch supported by and through the M60 harness. Using my harness adapters lead c101 x 7 ---//---x20 x21 wire Green.
I built my harness off of the setup below. The only difference is that the -grounds for the relays are routed through the low and high temp sensors that come stock in the E28 535 radiator



Top Left of the rad in this pic.



Top right of the rad in this picture you will see the temp sensors I used as a -ground for the two relays I'm using for my setup.




Everything was nice and cleaned up after the picture. I have to say I was quite happy with the setup and testing.

This thing will be a SICK ASS Daily Driver...:mrgreen:

^im sure that will sounds good, and be a bit more tame. I really just wanted to see what it would be like straight through, no x-pipe, single muffler. It didn't take me too long to build, so it's easy to add something in later, and I most likely will over the winter.

thats exactly what I am going to do too. But I think I will be happy with a H pipe (no resonators and cats )and a single muffler dual 2.5" tips. :)

Looks great. You got me beat to the finish.
I just wired my Dakota this weekend and got the TACH working. I still can get my temp gauge to work. I think I got a bad sensor or a bad SI board.

Sweet keep it going..

Lol thanks man, that's my car. Just got it going a few weeks ago. No good sound videos yet, but I'm hoping to take one this weekend. I love the sound, but it's really loud. Great for a toy to rip around in, but would not be fun as a dd.


You're build looks awesome btw, looking forward to seeing it go:up:

yea that's kinda what i figured. I was surprised you didn't add resonators in there some were.
I plan on a similar setup. But I'm planning to have resonators just behind the trans and separate mufflers per 2.5" out at the back..;D

The I found this picture on the interweb and I would really love to hear this car as well as talk to the owner about how bad ass it is...

This is the placement I have for my overflow tank...:D

So spent the day finishing the cooling system. Added a Huge OE fan and moved my other fan so now i have a low and high speed fans, as a pusher and a puller. Also mounted my new overflow tank with hoses. I'm really happy with it. It hides well in plane sight.
Also heard back from Garagistic, they want my tach signal thingy back and there sending me a new one. I thought that was pretty standup and cool on there part.

[MonkeyMadness]

Wow ok got my sunroof working. It was the gawd damn ground... loose
Everything is on the up and up.
Got my new coolant overflow tank but need hoses (coming soon)
Still need to figure out my tach issue. ugh
Once I get the tach finished I can finalize my harness adapter and finish this crap...
I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm looking at killing at the next bimmerfest
fingers crossed..lol
