It going to be beast. I like it.

Thanks!

start it and post a vid. naooo

Picking up a starter today, start up vid tuesday, hopefully.

Basically straight through to the battery, with a 100amp fuse. May need a 130amp but we'll see. Well, something like that. I just soldered stuff, ShEck3lls0 took care of the schematics for me. So big thanks for that.

I had a hard time figuring out the 3g wiring then when i finally got it to charge it died got tired of dealing with it and a buddy had a gm 1 wire so i just made that work.

The 3g wiring was pretty simple. Let me know if you need help with it.

Do you have an airbag windshield wiper stalk? Also, if you happened to try fitting the wheel without the quick release, is it similar to stock airbag wheel positioning?

I didn't, no. I had CW325 ask me the same question, and honestly I think it would pretty easily. But he actually just got an almost identical wheel and adapter(same dimensions), so you may want to send him a pm and see if he has it mounted up.

That's what I figured. I need to get rid of this god damn airbag steering wheel...feels like there's a shotgun in my face whenever I drive...

I was so glad mine had been replaced with a sport wheel before I bought it. But definitely go with one of these, awesome wheel/ quality for the money.

Bump.

It's my birthday and all I want is a video of this loud bitch running.

[FunfGan]

:( I knew somebody would bump and ask. I'm currently waiting for my starter solenoid to come in, and the final brake pieces. Then it should HOPEFULLY be on the road. I don't know though honestly, this thing is running on hopes, dreams and sleepless nights hahaha.


Happy birthday though! Will update with burnout soon :)

Have you figured out the exhaust yet? Or are you going to be strait piped/openheaders for now?

My co-worker has a 5.0 Stang, i keep trying to imagine the noise it makes coming from an e30.

Until college starts up, its just going to be straight piped. Then when I leave(I have to leave the car), its being taken into a shop for a cage and exhaust. I'm planning on just running it straight back with a resonator or two, but I like it loud :) Just trying to cut down on some of the drone/ noise.
