Mk60e5 ABS

OK, install is totally complete, brakes are bled, INPA is showing everything is GTG, no leaks, etc. I am super happy. In the end it was a lot of work to run all new brake lines and move the unit into the cockpit but nothing too terrible. Having a good flaring tool is very much needed and is a false economy if you get a sub-par one which makes garbage flares.
I ended up using around 50 feet of NiCop and a bunch of flare fittings, a few spools of 20awg wire, 4 decent wire strippers/crimpers, some deutsch connectors and some wire management stuff.

Skafrog Sweet! Please follow-up with your driving impressions.

hoveringuy, just curious where you got your fittings and brake line. They look like quality parts.

It's all from Summit. 25' coils of stainless tubing and AN fittings.

I am onboard the MK60 train now. Not because I track the car but because I want more room for an airbox and I'm determined to get cruise working on the N52 swap(even if I end up having to switch half of the Z4 parts into the car). I have the Z4 MK60e5 which will work with e30 rings and has a much smaller steering angle sensor.

So far I've managed to get the Steering angle sensor coded to match the VIN on my MSV70 and coded the MK60 for options I want. If anyone goes down this route I made a DSC_85.SSD VO file you can have for NCSExpert, you will only need to change the VIN.

Front E46 sensors fit on the E30 with a 3d printed adapter, I haven't tested the rear yet but it looks like the e46 sensors will require modification in a addition to a printed adapter. Front is buttoned up. Hoping posting here will motivate me to get started on making new brake lines and running new sensor wires. I went with NICOP when I changed the lines before but they are already starting to turn green so I will probably use stainless this time.

Front adapters fitted installed to test.





Good to go! Now onto the back.
