777- Kamotors E23 Turbo Build + E38 content and a hint of e32

[kamotors]

And knock sensor #4 failed........and its under the intake, and I have to pull the rear coolant distribution block off...... Literally the ONLY thing I didn't replace failed in 10 minutes.

Been loving this on instagram. I've been flirting with the idea of an e38. An m-sport would be killer.

Finally got the e38 done! Just waiting for it to cool off so I can recheck coolant levels

Sooo very tired....new thermostat in the e23, runs very cool now. However it breaks up and back fires around 5500rpms.


Pulled valve cover off the e38 took like 3hrs just to strip the nasty paint off it and then the finish of the cast metal was way rougher than I thought it'd be so I just crinkle painted it.

Got the ecu back, new spark plugs, just need to finish one more valve cover and I can drive it!

Almost done, got intake back on, replaced majority or rubber with silicone hose. I discovered that the oil return hose was split and leaking, not having the time to order a new one I decided to reburbish what I had. I have loads of -an oil hose and -11 was the perfect fit

perfect tight fit.

What do you intend to do with the HVAC system? I assume it isn't working 100%.

Nice, old school 7 series, slammed with deep dish wheels and turbo..!!! sub'd....

Sub'd for 7 series awesomeness. My next car will either be a e46 AWD touring or a e38. I want a e38, but the e46 sounds to practical.

Also mailed out the e38 ecu, getting it tuned by dudmd.
Stuck thermostat in the e23, boiled both only one opened


Cool art on the first aid kit from the e23
