^ List of what cars came with which diffs.
You want something 2.93~3.25 to be close to stock. Which of these are actually available...

It's a blanking plug and the inside is coated with a cavity wax/corrosion inhibitor so it doesn't rust from the inside out.
Any plug the right size should be fine as long as it seals the hole....

I get a basically blank Kernel Power ID41 error ~10s before the crash time in Event Viewer, but no WHEA ID18/19 or cache hierarchy like a lot of people.
I've been through a ton of threads and followed...

^ CPU probably saves some juice there, I think the current gen Ryzens idle at only a few Watts with most cores fully to sleep in C6



Did you end up getting the 5950X? Any issues...

Stock FPR is fine until you start flowing too much fuel for the FPR to bypass.
The point that happens depends on your fuel pump (Not power level or boost), and a Walbro 255 is not going to give...

just based off how bad the paint looks around it, I imagine it's brake fluid.

Could be a leak from the brake or clutch master cyls, either dripping down the inside of the firewall or the...

That's some serious carnage

[Northern]

I like those, where are they from?

[Northern]

I guess it would need an adapter for the damper/crank pulley because they're multi-bolt right?
I've seen threads on here where it's been done with other diesel crankshafts....

Clutch, I'm not very well versed in current M20 offerings, but I remember SPEC Stage 3 was popular a few years back for that power level and decently cheap. Fits with the M20b2 flywheel, 6 puck sprung...

lol


Congrats and good luck!...

+1 for everything from 96+ E36 M3 up front with e30 offset CABs and e30 strut mounts.
There are also hub adapter options (maybe cheaper? retain original camber/caster geometry, bigger brakes than...

Easy enough to hook up a battery charger/tender while flashing too.
Probably a decent idea if you flash in your car with a battery is under-spec in size or not brand new.

Or make a...

Thank you for the info!

If you find any more pics of the widebody work that was done, I'm sure they'd be well received here haha

Did you have to modify the rear bumper at all,...

[Northern]

pretty solid upgrade. Looks great

[Northern]

I've never considered raising the throttle closed threshold, but I get that as well so I will give it a shot.


Worst part about romraider is getting everything setup and working....

[Northern]

Could be VANOS solenoid, Cam sensor oring, valve cover gasket. Vanos oil line banjo washers and the PCV hose aren't too far away either.

Are either of the solenoid or banjo bolt loose?...

[Northern]

Even if it breaks, at least you can still sit there and stare at it....

[Northern]

I like so many things about this build. The TicTac livery was great, everything about the powerplant too.
I've never seen someone do a widebody like that, and I reaaaally like how you did that....

[Northern]

Bottom end is fine for that power stock as long as it's in good shape.
Crank scraper/baffle should help with oil starvation in long corners if you're tracking the car.
You'll get away with...
