Loving all the 4 door love lately.

Why the OBX adapter? cheap Chinese crap, MMP sells the converter flanges to use with the BMW 524t manifold.

What figures are you looking to put down? Sorry if I missed that, kinda skipped through the pictures without reading much of the text.

524t Manifold is poop for flow after a certain range. Think about what car it came from, lol.
Nigel, I believe, will be testing how much he can squeeze out of it soon on Castro's dyno.

Driveways = :(

Flip your tires before it's too late!

Hi,

Fixed the auto arm feature by splicing 2 wires together



Aldo got more parts for the turbo but only have the IC pictured

Damn, I should have sold you that same intercooler for pretty cheap. I have that same one from when I was going to go turbo. Just has a dent on the top, but its an intercooler. Are you mounting it between the frame rails around the kidney grill area?

[jaywood]

Yes, planning in running the piping underneath the headlights :p

Wish I would have known! Luckily they're pretty cheap on eBay!

like this?

[jaywood]

Yes like that, or flipped upside down. Whichever fits better.

I wanna say it didn't work upside down. Can't remember

Sweet dude cant wait to see more progress with your build

[jaywood]

Hmm, we'll see. I'll keep this thread updated.

Thanks man, it should be fun :)

[SwiftE30]

great build man, just read through the whole thing. excited to see the progress

[Butler]

Such a good build thread. <3

[jaywood]

Had the driver rear tire blown out on me on the freeway, very scary.



Got 2 new rear tires. Falken 452 225/45/16. Don't have any current pics unfortunately. I test fitted them today and it rubs badly. I will be doing some fender work tomorrow hopefully. I'll update this with some pics!

[MattAvino]

Oh jesus, camber much?

[jaywood]

Lol, I know. I need to do something about it. Thoughts?

[Wh33lhop]

lol, that's what happens when you let them cord down to the metal. :p Looking at the pic last page it was pretty bald on the inside back then too.

[jaywood]

Yep! I didn't really realize it was that bad.. Woops :p

I need camber correction. I have seen the weld in ones, is it worth it?
