facelift e30 M20b20 turbo

[anza(kla)]

Hi from finland.:D

I´m new at your forum,so i like to introduce me and my ride.

i have had about 10 e30`s before,and i have been seriously been viewing your forum.
and now i thought that i´m gonna introduce my car here.

this time i have my project car e30 M20b20 with turbo.

here is some details on my car:

- year model 10/1987 (first facelift)
- M20b20 engine
- Diamond schwartz
- 2-door
- sun roof
- ///M-3 fiberglass front bumper
- ///M-3 original plastic rear spoiler
- ///M-3 side mirrors

Engine:

-block has new bearings everywhere
-pistons is turn in a lathe at top 1.3mm off
-Head-gasget is a 2mm Mass gasget
-Compression ratio 8.5:1
-Megasquirt is for gasoline injection for now,but someday it´s gonna drive ignition also.
-HKS 46mm wastegate
-KKK k24 turbo (way too small)
-311cc injectors (way too small too)
-3" downpipe and hole exhaust pipe
-Copper clutch
-"Chinese" intercooler (60cmx30cmx7.5cm)
-Innovate wide-band lambda
-Walbro´s second biggest fuel pump
-adjustable fuel pressure regulator
-Getrag 260 with E36 ///M-3 shift axles (really short) :)

Interior:

-Cosworth sierra front seats
-Momo steering wheel
-Boost,oil pressure,water temperature,air/fuel ratio gauges. first 3 gauges are Hartge´s original stand in front of ashtray. air/fuel gauge i´m gonna put in center consol where is original clock (right side of stereo)
-5" rpm gauge

Chassis:

-Koni´s shocks and H&R (?) springs
60/40mm (?)
-whole 325i chassis (51mm front shocks and disc brake rear axel)
-Borbet T 8x17"
- 3.45:1 LSD


Coming:
-bigger turbo
-bigger injectors
-fiberglass ///M-3 new front bumber and rear bumper
-power
etc...

First Dyno run give 0.5bar (i think 7.25psi?) 219.7 bhp and 293nm torque

car has been driven 1.2bar boost (i think 17.40psi?) now about 7 months,and have no problems.

i bought this car month and half ago and now i have allready been used to this power.

so i have now bought new 442cc injectors (should work just fine somewhere round 450 bhp)
i have been watching new turbo since i bought this car,but still havent found the right one.

i have been thinking a lot of a new turbo and my conclusion is Holset HX35 with 54mm compressor wheel and 60mm exhaust turbine.

with this turbo and these injectors and adjustable engine management i hope i get round 380 bhp.
turbo should do litlle bit over 400bhp with 14# outlet exhaust turbine.
and these injectors should do 450bhp.

so will see how much i can get out allmost stock m20b20 with this turbo and injectors.

i have one guy 300miles away who could have just like this turbo. so next week i must give him a callanyhow and i have to ask at same time does he got it still. if do,in few weeks we could have next dyno run.:) will see about it.

meanwhile i´m gonna paint it. let the color be a secret for now.:p

here is few pictures of it.
engine bay is still bit of messy,but i have "cleaned" it very much. i take new pictures when i just remember.:D

tomorrow i´m gonna water-sandpaper it and paint it,so it´s gonna be at least in one color.:D

i try to shoot a video as soon as i get new turbo.

EDIT:

another amazing car on the other side of the ocean

[///m3]

Sounds like a beast.... I would love to see a video.

another amazing car on the other side of the ocean

thanks man.:D

here are some future "plans" for the car.

-satin-black color (one red 4mm thick straip round car)
-2 racing buckets (perhaps momo or sparco)
-4- or 6-point belts
-(perhaps roll-gage)
-lot´s of power
-coil-overs(?) had to do it myself so i get just exactly like i want it.
-Big brake kit
-perhaps m20b25 engine built for turbo use,or m30b34 for turbo use.

these modification is about to happen in winter.
except painting.

this car is built that kind a way that it´s gonna be street-legal.

so i wont built it only for race purpose.
i´m gonna be driving it on streets and sometimes drive it on race-track.;-)

Damn

Now that's business.

holy short shifter! sick car man, cant wait to see a vid

holy short shifter! sick car man, cant wait to see a vid

i`m just loading a video on my computer.

hope i can handle it.
i`m not just so expert on these computers.

video is recorded few weeks a go one morning on my way to work.

i put video on my first post when i can just get it you guys to see it.

i just remembered that i have Super-sexy rims for my car. :p
but if i paint it satin-black,the rims just dont look good on it,because it look so "race" on satin-black

alltought i like also really much red e30 facelift. and if i paint this car red,these rims would look really good. and would look sexy if i paint those center`s gold.

i put one shot for my ex-cabriolet where was my rims before.

when i had cabriolet i think i would paint center of the rims gold,but i wouldn´t look good on Macaoblau color.

if somebody likes to know a little bit more of my ex-cabriolet just let me know.

i would be thrilled to tell more about it.

[stevofthahill]

I would in fact like to know more about your ex-cabriolet.

there are few pictures

i sold it couple months ago,and bought this turbo e30.

original 325i
-1991
-185 thousand kilometers

engine was M50B25 Non-vanos (with):
-supersprint stainless-steel exhaust manifold
-3" stainless-steel exhaust pipe
-bigger intake valves
-cat cams camshafts
-everything was new at engine top
camshafts,retainer,valvesprings,valves i mean everything.
-air intake filter
-m52b28 throttle body
-chip

engine was so perfect to drive. it just kept going at 2200rpm right thru 7100rpm.

car color was macao-blau and roof was dunkel-blau (dark blue)
there was e30 touring sideskirts,M-tech 2 front spoiler,M-3 side mirrors (original),dark-optic front lights (i made instantly those yellow lights for it),MHV-black rear lights and so on.

i had really much problems with the engine.

i bought everything,yes, i mean everything new to the fuel injection side and spark/ignition side. just one thing i didint buy new was engine´s control unit.

so did change:
-MAF
-coils
-gasoline pump
-spark plugs
-throttle body
-throttle valve switch
-control unit box
-crankshaft pulse generator
-camshaft pulse generator

etc..
and still it wouldn´t start proberly.
and if you drive and kept gas pedal at same position it just started to twitch.

i made myself a promise and that was
"this is my first and last 4-valve bmw"
and i mean Motorsport and all other shit.:)

so it is easier to stay these 12 valve bmw`s.

I have had quite a lot of bmw:s and i have quite a lot pictures of these cars.

here is a small list of my ex cars:

-325i cabriolet (1990) "fully loaded"
-325i cabriolet (1991) "m50b25"
-325i coupe (1986) "316" +200bhp
- (E28 ) ///M-535i (1986) "with turbo size of a basketball"
-(E34) 540i (1992) "lot´s of M-parts"

etc..

if you guys want,i can put few pictures all these cars.?

Hello Antti, nice to see you here.

I wish your car is running and burning rubber in Ylivieska 5.9.2009.

Hi,Olli.:)

I sure hope so also that i got my car at some point there.
it depend´s so much right now about that new turbo.
i gotta make call in hyvinkää today or tomorrow and ask that guy what are those turbo´s turbine size.

car is pretty good point right now,that i´m gonna paint it end of the week.
so i just have to assembly new injectors and turbo (should fit proberly without modification) except downpipe.
but that´s not very big job.

then Maza is gonna adjust megasquirt and so we are ready for ylivieska.

then after ylivieska and little bit adjust and bit "test-driving" that we see everything works proberly and then dyno.:D

[anza(kla)]

today after work i get to know if a can get new holset turbo next week.

this weekend would be here (kokkola,centre-finland) our own bmw-meet and we think there´s gonna be perhaps 40 bmw`s.

in finland it´s "end of summer" weekend.
it´s gonna be fire works,and other shit.

if i´m not so drunk,i can take few pictures about that meet were having.

sad but true that my own car isin´t ready there.
so i think weekend i´m gonna rip intake manifold and that small turbo off the car and put new injectors in manifold.

i need to get exhaust outlet drawnings of that holset turbo,so i can make new flange to downpipe.

and so on.

so new turbo assembly would be peace of cake. atleast i think so,but every time i said so,something shit happens again.:D

and weekend i think i would paint car also.

i take some pictures it,if paintwork is something you would show to a people.

[joecrotch]

awesome car! and great work! keep us posted!

[anza(kla)]

awesome car! and great work! keep us posted!

i just find out that i get new Holset hx35 turbo next week. :up:

tomorrow i take intake manifold and old turbo out of car and put new injectors to the manifold and order part-dealer few gasget´s and some wiring harness,so i can hide megasquirt´s wiring.:up:

some dude called me few hours ago and asked if i wanna sell my KKK turbo. :up:

i sure hope so that ignition would "keep up" about 350-380bhp.
if dont i have to make some modifications.

guys in finland has used Ford mondeo 2.5i V6 ignition parts with megasquirt. so i might put it in ford`s "coil-pack". well see about,if this ignition wont be good enough.
