Nice, too bad about the ac still. Your oil temp at 217 C? Or is that F, I cant see?

[roznic]

Sweet thang, I imagine the adrenaline flow there lol

So got a little shake down test driving today.

The AC is still not working, actually think its a bad pressure switch so changing that out. Everything is getting power.

Anyway the car is fast! I can chrip the tires easily in second and third gear, wondering if I could in fourth as well but didnt try it.



Anyway, this thing is just so fun to drive, still need to finish up a bunch of little things (like the AC) but wow I cant wait to drive this all summer.

I got back into my M3 after and it just felt so slow and heavy. Made me miss the E30.

Here is a small video of it reving. Excuse some poor shifts I forgot my go pro and almost dropped the phone at one point causing me to press the clutch again.

Anyway enjoy!

Forgot this pic, chllin with a 928. Kinda like that car. Hate the chrome wheels though.

[Staszek]

Those cars are amazing for what they are. Interior is nuts. I just hate the kidney grills.

If you don’t mind me asking, what do you do for a career/work?

I don't mind the grills as much on this one, the 2020 facelifted grills are crazy! They are like double the size.

Well I get a car allowance but the car had to be 4 years old or newer and I got a really good deal I know the dealer and it was a demo so the price was just stupid not to take it.

That being said an exec at a fortune 500.

^ Not a problem at all. Don't think I got a call so I hope you got it squared away!

Yea I think we got it, going to test tomorrow with some freon.

Also added a new car to the family. I thought I would just leave this car alone, no mods, that lasted 2 weeks lol.

Just did a few light things, new wheels, remove the front plate and replace the reflectors with IND painted versions. The car handles like a tank, but it sure is fast and comfortable.




I can basically fit the E30 in the trunk of this thing.

If you can not get the CANboard working, airventdisplay.no just finished the PCBs for his variant which will also integrate for full MK60 support with or without EWS/IKE/IKHA. Just some soldering and testing to do. As to the AC dryer to E46 AC pressure sensor adapter, still in progress here in SB, the shop has been busy.

Thanks Justin, they may be giving you a call this week for help. The guy's name is Alex, although I think we have it figured out now it just taking time to finish.

Can’t wait for a ride in this beast :-)

Needs a CM5908+BT once the AC is sorted. Working a trunk sub and 5 channel rear amp setup too.. Will bring a car by later this summer

Long time no update. Life getting in the way of the car, too much travel not enough time home.

So the car is running and driving quite well actually. The rubbing problem in the rear was fixed by going from 3mm spring pads (less than the stock ones) to 10mm pads in the rear. Now that there is no rubbing put miles on it so the computer is adapted and then we will tune and dyno. Pretty much everything is done now except the AC. Still having some issues with the Canbus. It's at the shop now and they are working on getting the AC up and running.
