my own personal hell

[Bimmerman325i]

you do realize suspension is done, right? read the thread you'll find i have koni and h&r's w/ urathane everything and aluminum everything (lots of summarizing just happened). as for brakes i did forget to mention those, those should go on sometime over the summer, i'm thinking some wilwoods w/ 6 piston calipers

I missed that.

For brakes, do everyone a favor and get Massive's E34 kit. No sense reinventing the brake rotor hat yet again....and Massive's stuff works.

that was the plan.

brembo only offers 4 pison calipers but wilwood offers 6 so naturally....


as for the dry sump comment if i don't see any gains from dry sump oh well at least then my oil pan won't be an excuse to not lower the car more. plus it will make doing my underbody air-defuser slightly easier as the pan sits about 2 inches below the rest of the lowest points of the car (aside from suspension and steering components) if nothing else i can say hey i sopent like 3K on a drysump for my m20 lol

btw bender rules. if you don't like it you can bite my shiny metal ass

the plan is for over 25 lbs in the future. i don't want to be buying more parts later and doing this over again. in anycase holy hell that tuner studio software is intense. i can't find the area that dictates engine displacement that matt or ben (from diy) mentioned. maybe i heard incorrectly anyone care to chime in on this?

wait. I hope I am reading this wrong and you didn't just say something about the computer controling your bore and stroke.

More pistons is not more better.....

you read it wrong. my question is in regards to a statement matt or ben made. they said that the program had a displacement area or something IIRC. i don't really remember the statement but it was something like tell the engine its a 2.7 or 3.1 or whatever IIRC. oh well whatever i'm going to call them when i am on my way to class and find out. i'll be back on in 2 hours

warning generalized statement


not in all cases. more pistons = more clamping capability and usually softer pedal feel and slower caliper responce but with each piston able to accomidate more clamp load - its a tradeoff.

Because, like your waistline, more is always better...

Dude, seriously. Shut the fuck up.

He's an engineer bro, I'd let him work on my car any time. Guy knows his shit.

its in like the first "basic" menu, under Required Fuel. you enter the engine displacement, injector size, the # of cylinders, target afr, and a few other variables. You have a long road ahead of you if you haven't passed that step.

You were funny for a little while, now you're just reaching.

And if he's late again, he's a re-tard? :p
