MMP M62B44 Build Project "Jack-N-Coke"

[MonkeyMadness]

Anybody got a good DIY on front end alignment for and e30
every-time i do a search i keep coming up with the string setup. I would used this except aren't the stock e30 10mm narrower in the rear than the front? 5mm left, 5mm right...?
if soo this would make the string setup un-usable?



also still need either a good gauge cluster or SI board... if you got one hit me up I can pay in cash, paypal, or reach-arounds..
take your pick... :-P

Also I'm in the mind set to get a nice set of 225/50R16 tyres for JNC
looking for a nice Tack setup "look"
This tought is also brought on by the fact that the setup i currently have is pretty old and dry.

plus I can't hookup at all... v8 torque problem..

this is my current setup

205/50R16



these are 225/50R16 But this is the look I want.... :devil:


whats say you...?

Track width doesn't matter, you just need two strings parallel and equidistant to the center line of the car.




For tires, i think 225/45/16 would be my choice.

I agree. 225/45r16 would be the perfect tire!! I ran these on my Rotas before someone decided they needed them more than I did!!! No fitment issues with them.

Welp.. it was bound to happen.
Woke up this morning to go to the local meet and found the car battery dead.
No biggy i don't drive it often and i hadn't put it on the tender. So i had to bump start it.
Drove to the meet no issue. Needed a bump start to leave.
But on the drive home the battery ran out dead leaving starnded for a short time on the side of the road. So I'm guessing my alt is dead as its not charging while the car is running
Looks like I'm getting a new Alt soon.. lol
But i got some nice pictures of it sitting looking mean. Haha:D

Really Crappy Sound bite/vid update.... but you get the hint..

One of my few complaints with the gopro is the crappy sound when it comes to wind noise.. ugh

thinking of buying an external mic to get a good sound clip

Great numbers!! now just watch the M62 become the new KING of E30 swaps...:devil: cant wait to finish my car... I will be tuning it on the dyno we will see how much can be squeezed out N/A on it..

[MonkeyMadness]

Had access to an old school dyno today that the "old guys salt flat group uses" unreliable?. ( only cause its out of date and hasn't been spec'd in years. )
Had 5 pulls and calculator monitored by 4 diffrent old guys pushing there 70's & 80's looking after me. Real cool old sckool shit.
After 5 pulls my average @ crank hp was 325 @ 5600
Stock block no smog
Old dude want me to seat the eaton supercharger and come back I'm soo stoked.
Worst part was my tires are soo old i was smoking them on the barrel... lol old guy thought it was a hoot...
These guy know there shit..
Had a fucking awesome day...

There's something to say about old guys and cars, specially the ones that don't post much (if anything) on the internets :P
