Did you change the master brake cylinder when mounting the MOVIT brakes?

I believe they used one from an old 2000 series BMW that was small
enough to fit.

BTW, some pics from last weekend at the Ring:

Thor you may be referring to the brake booster, the vacuum assist unit, rather than the actual master cylinder .


Either way great pics and keep up the good work . :up:

My new 550cc injectors:










The car is now too rich on low revs but is pulling like crazy on high rpm´s.
I´ll have it remapped this month and then it´s the Ring the last
weekend of the month

Gorgeous setup. Love the pic w/ the m1 all sitting in the garage. Should be fun w/ the bigger injectors all remapped in.

Yeah - the car is supposed to be in 100% condition apart from mapping.

The plan was to fly to Hahn on the 24th and drive the car up to Denmark (again)
and have Mr. X map it. The Tauber guys were going to bring the car to
Nurburg beforehand.

From Nurburg to Denmark and back is approx. 2 x 800km, 2 days, wear and
tear on the car plus €€€€€€€€€€€€ in petrol.

So... I checked how much a flight from Denmark to Munich costs and it turns
out it ´s much wiser to fly the master mapper to the car rather than bring the
car to him. Then checked if he was willing to spend a whole day on this and
he agreed

So now the plan is to fly to Hahn on the 24th, drive to Tauber (close to
Nuremberg) pick up the car and drive to Munich. Mr. X the mapper shows
up on the morning of the 25th and we map during that day and he flies
back home in the evening.

Which means I will hopefully be driving at the Ring on the evening of the
26th with approx. 500hp on tap after picking up a mate at Hahn on the
way to the Nurburg.

Now with my luck - what are the chances this will all go smoothly???

[kristov]

How did it go?

[bimmer]

How did it go?

Wrong in so many ways - only managed 3.5 laps :-x

New CP 8.5:1 forged pistons being ordered along with some more stuff - gotta
make that damn motor bulletproof.

Bummer. We know you'll have it back to new in no time.

Damn, that is horrible. This is ending up to be quite a money sucker. I hope you get it all buttoned up and are happy with it in the end.

It will be awesome in the end - trust me 8-)

I´m used to difficult births... had a similar problem when my
M5 was supercharged but then it was even worse because the
block cracked
