When comes time to pick-up the masters, don't make the same mistake as most people. Bigger MCs are not better. They willmake braking very difficult. Remember that you have to push TWO MCs now, and that you have no assist. Check if you can get smallish MCs at around 3/4".

You have no idea how many emails I receive from people having listened to "pros" and now very disastified by how much force is required to apply the brakes, and how unpleasant and dangerous, braking has become.

Whoa whoa whoa, low mount RHD turbo!? You have all my attention

[TexasTerp]

Wow man this is an amazing build! Can't wait to see your development! Subscribed

Thanks guys.

Yeah Lee you were going to be the first i spoke to. How much would you charge me for a rear kit if i was to wack one on the rear?

at the moment itll be the pedal set up. the front kit you provided and the rear is standard so you think 3/4 would be right?

[Massive Lee]

I suggest to undersize MCs when going to a boosterless system. Or increase caliper piston size. You should also consider your calipers' piston size if adding a rear kit. You currently have a front-only kit with 1.38" pistons. For the rear, you would need to get 1.00" pistons. Or change the front calipers for ones with 1.63"pistons for rear 1.12" pistons. Or even front 1.75" for 1.25" rears.

Thanks

Small update. Mounted the intercooler yesterday. had to make a little room for it as its 130mm thick.

[lifeiskaos]

holy shit that thing is wide. i love it! where'd you get it?

[tubby17s]

From a shop down here in aus. One of the best things about this intercooler is the end tanks point back at like 20 degrees giving you plenty of room near the brake ducts

Fuck me, your cars have come a long way from when I remember them on DTM Power, dude. Makes me want another E30 bad.

Was it you that flipped another white Alpina ages ago, too? Like, back in 2004-2005-2006 some time? I remember someone fucked one up in Southern Sydney.

[tubby17s]

Iain.

How are you? what are you doing with yourself these days?

Yeah my alpina broke its rear suspension and we went over on the north shore. so the story could have changed or somone else wrote there of too. not sure.

yeah the little E30 keeps evolving.

[Iain]

Not bad, mate. Been playing with old Subaru Libertys, but have bought a house and am after some dirty cheap slapper fun. Cue possibly another E30 (if I can find a straight, rust-free coupe cheap enough)

Yours will have to be one of the uber E30s in Australia, up there with Dave Ross' turbo 2.5 M3.

Recieved another 2 parcels today.

Wideband kits, mate?

Why multiple widebands?
