turns out airplanes are faster than boats! I can't say it was extremely cheap, though..

Time to paint the bad boy.

£200, shipped as 2 packages via TNT.

also, interesting side note, there is apparently at least two variants of mtech I rear skirt - one with a straight exhaust cutout, and one with a slanted one. I'll also be tearing apart the front trim and comparing it to non-mtech stuff, since that has been a long standing poorly documented area of e30 knowledge.

[golde30]

thats not bad actually. try shipping that kit via fedex domestically, probably cost you as much or more.

[M-technik-3]

Yeah one for early cars and one for later. The non m-tech molding can be trimmed to fit.

[Pantless Spency]

So jelly. And that looks to be in zinno... Extra jelly.

Damn, I really liked it with the standard Euro body. It shall look good either way though.

M-Tech 1 = winning the game. Can't wait to see this come together!

Finally the m106 has lost the body it was plagued w........it must be hella happy.

it is happy! except now that I can fondle the propshaft, I can feel that it has a decent amount of play :(

also the pressure control solenoid/valve thing is weird and nobody knows anything about it. I'm not sure if it's possible to make it adjustable and run it via MS.

Can it be actuated with solenoids and vacuum?

The auto paired with m106 is supposed to be dead; supposedly dies when revved in neutral. Weird unit

yeah, that auto is pretty crazy. It's labeled as a 4HP22, but it's got a connector and a whole ECU, so it's not a garden-variety 4HP22.

not sure about activating the thing with vacuum.. it's got a line going to it, but it might be stuck closed since we were going into overboost and the ECU was killing the engine during some, ahem, "testing".

incidentally did you see the skidmarks in the parking lot of the shop? ;D

I like everything going on in here.
