[Lurch320i]

The whole lot polished will look amazing

[FLG]

Amazing build! You'll be happy to know I recently got my hands on the intake you made for your m20 and will be going on my 500+ whp build for next season. Might start a thread here on my drift car but figured I'd let you know! Had to find the guy who made it.

josh ???

[FLG]

No, i wound up buying it from Josh seems his plans changed for whatever reason

[ross2009]

O ok that's cool but yeah I'm the one that made it

[FLG]

Haha I might pm you when I get it in hand, unless it's quite obvious I was wondering how the tps senor was mounted. This is the car it will be going in btw.

Dont want to derail your build thread. Looking forward to seeing more though!

[ross2009]

Looks awesome, did he supply you with a throttle body too ?
I'll send ya a link of lots of pics as I was building it if ya like

[ross2009]

There you go http://s924.photobucket.com/user/Rossco ... let%20mani

[FLG]

Thanks. I'll take a look! For some reason he had purchased another throttle body but it looks nearly identical to the one you had.

[ross2009]

Yeah bought another one as Id already sold my throttle body so couldn't send it with the manifold but you can pick them up pretty cheap

[FLG]

Yeah he included one. I assume the tps just gets screwed into the other side it looks like? Might just have to make some holes but dosnt seem like anything complex.

[ross2009]

yeah it does it just slots on to the butterfly shaft and screws down i think i made a little plate for the tps to screw to then bolted that to the side as my tps is quite small

[ross2009]

Got a few more bits for the rear and 5 stud conversion
Had a little test fit of the new wheels although there not actually bolted on or anything

The hub and disc pics before , I didn't realise that they were the wrong ones they are z3m ones not z3 ones but now I've bought brand new ones from the dealers









New bbs stainless valves

[glenn]

where did you get the valve's from ross ?

[ross2009]

Ebay mate 18 squids

[ross2009]

Small update I've got the rear discs on for mock up , the hubs need to be machined to let the disc go bk further for the hand brake shoes to be covered, as the hubs stick out to far, anyone that knows me knows I don't do things the standard way
Here's the discs behind the wheels there 300mm z4 discs on a z3 hub and will be running Porsche boxster rear Brembo 4pots





As you can see the shoes don't quite go under the disc hence the machining



As for the fronts there going to be a sleeved stub axle with e36 hubs




Blasted and cleaned up the front calipers they are staying red so they will be painted this week




Also took the xyz logo off too




And just some odd more bits that I've got new coil packs for the efi swap



And my new wheel bolts for the hartges




New front strut top mounts too, as mine are poo poo



Will have more updates by end of the week as I have some goodies coming from the usa , rear calipers will be here and the fronts should be painted

[Rav335uk]

Did you get the Bolts from the site i gave you?

[ross2009]

Did you get the Bolts from the site i gave you?

Yes mate

[ross2009]

New rear calipers turned up today

[ross2009]

Front calipers are now painted
Don't they look sexy




Not a bad match to the Porsche rears either



And my fuel rails turned up today just gotta wait for the manifold to come now

[appletree]

Looking great, they're some sexy looking wheels, bet you can't wait to see it sat down on them with the brakes behind them. Will the rear arche need rolling much then?

[ross2009]

Cheers dude they do look awesome
I can't wait either mate just gotta finish off the 5stud and brakes then I can get the wheels together
Tyres and get it back on the ground

Not sure about the arches yet I shall see more when I get the hubs on

[ross2009]

Front hubs are tested fitted just got to get some new hub nuts



As the brakes and wheels are nearly sorted I thought I'd turn on to the fueling of this monster
This thing is gonna need some fuel supply,I've worked it out at wot on boost its gonna need at least 520lph

I wanted to stick with an Intank pump but for that flow it's not going to happen so it's going to have to be a twin pump system, I've decided to go swirl pot and twin pumps in the boot , now I know it's not going to be no track car to have the need for a swirl pot but there isn't no were to put the pumps inline underneath with out welding outlets on the tank

So it's the easiest solution with a low pressure lifter pump in the tank




A few bits and pieces



To feed this bad boy








More goodies to come next week

[jmc330i]

To feed this bad boy

Will that even fit under the bonnet??

I can't wait to see this finished

[ross2009]

ha ha yes it will its actually lower than the normal manifold carb and filter set up now
so will be fine the engine site quite low as it is

believe me i cant wait either

[ross2009]

i have got a smaller air filter than this but just to give you a rough idea of how much lower it is

[glenn]

that inlet ross.....

[ross2009]

that inlet ross.....

pretty dam hot aint it glenn , its gonna house a 90mm throttle body too

[glenn]

90mm
you dont want to be starting that thing without the inlet pipe on......
it'll suck in anything that's not bolted down

[ross2009]

[ross2009]

[jimbom30cab]

[jmc330i]

Now that's looks amazing .......






apart from the rusty turbos

[ross2009]

ha ha yeah it sits outside now with a cover unfortunatly , i will be getting turbo blankets for them so they dont look as bad

just got to get it all bolted down now and get all the fuel rails and lines plumbed in

looks better than that old carb dont it

[manse73]

Looking good Ross when work calms down I will call up for an 8 pot fix
