My Update! (cable/dsl only)

[SchnellerVert]

What kind of exhaust are you planning on using.

[PiercedE30]

Thanks for the compliments guys.
Update: I've got most of the interior back in, minus the seats and rear section of the center console. I've managed to come up with a way to use an E36/E39 air filter. That's right, stock E36/E39 square filter. I'll post pictures of it tomorrow when I get a chance to take some pictures. I've tidied up the engine bay some and put the M3/318is wiring covers on. Still waiting on the LC-1 to come back from Innovate..........

I'd hit it... Twice

Nice build.

I was able to work on putting the interior back in a little today. I realy only need to put my seats back in and then put it on the lift to find out why I can't bleed the driver's side rear brake and find out where my oil leak is coming from (around the oil filter housing) exactly and then I will have some in car video for every one.
Oh, and on Feb. 26th there is a big import event that I will have my motor broken in for. And the nitrous will be hooked up by then. Once I get a feel for how sticky the tires are I will decide whether or not they will be good enough for it. But the next day I should have some pretty decent 1/4 times for everyone and finally show everybody that the 24v guys can put the wong-pong down in a 1/4 mile event, or the likes of.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
It's more alive than it ever has been! It revs so freaking fast. With just a blip of the throttle it jumps up to about 3000, from idle. If I have it off idle, about 1100 or so, and I blip the throttle a little more, then it jumps to over 4500! This is so freaking cool! I'll throw a video of it up in a little while when I get home and can upload it. This is awesome. I've also been able to tune out the idle even more. I've pretty much got it rock solid from 825-875 with a little bit of oscillation. Hopefully Innovate sends my LC-1 back to me soon so I can do some real tuning.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[PiercedE30]

Yea, it's a BMW/Volvo salvage/repair shop. It makes for cheap parts.

Oh, little update. I've been able to get my idle tuned out some. It only oscillates about 100 RPMs now and is pretty steady at about 900 RPMs. But I did find out that my LC-1 decided to shit on me and I'm going to get an RMA number from Innovate and get them to send me a new one.

[e30325ic]

That thing sounds mean. Do you work at a salvage yard? There sure is a lot of cars stacked behind you.

[PiercedE30]

Ok, uploaded the video from yesterday last night and forgot to post it.
Here we go:

I've got a LOT of tuning left.

[mops]

you are such a tease...

great build btw.

can you outline in details your 5 lug conversion ? there's some confustion on what parts to use. IFAIK, e28 trailing arms (complete with brakes, etc) - but will stock halfshafts work ? , and on the front complete e36 strut with e30m3 control arm... will normall e36 control arm work (happen to have these brand new)...

[PiercedE30]

My camera batteries = fail

I've got enough video to show up to where I started it. But not the actual starting. Sucks. I will try and get video tomorrow and charge the batteries tonight.

[PiercedE30]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


IT'S ALIVE!!!!!! It sounds mean as shit too! I will have video up when I get off of work.
