Just like in the other thread mate I couldn't find much about Project M. It could be just a local garage going by that name. I guess the only thing you can be dead sure of is that 'Project M' had something to do with your ECU.

Just to point out to anyone else who might be wondering about little stickers plastered on their imports, unless the name is commonly known and has at least a minor prescence on the internet, then it's probably either a small local garage or a garage that has since gone out of business.

Having said that though I've had people see my pics of the time I went to C-West Service Factory and they though it was MUCH smaller than they thought being a very well known Japanese company... well you can imagine how big a 'small' garage would be then...

An R32 GTR Owner wondering the same thing

Someone asking about Project M rotors on evo site

Mention of several Project M cars in JGTC

"Project M B-1 Mach-Go GT320R (driven by Tamanaka/Mifune)"

"Project M Taiyo Sekiyu Celica (driven by Takeuchi/Nishizawa)"

That's all I could find on google though :whistling:

As you can see they mainly do braking hardware etc.

From the original post it sounded like a proper garage did the work on stealth01's car, with ECU tuning etc.

stealth01 can you post up a pic of the sticker?

Oops my mistake. Why don't they write it as Project Mu?

Well, the first link I put up about the R32 GTR owner seems to be the same Project M that stealth01 is talking about.

"Has anyone heard of Project M High Performance Tuning? My 89 R32 GTR has a number of Project M badges on it - after removing the panel on the passenger footwell found that the ECU is also badged project M stating it is for race/track use only.."

    • I'm not 100% how the BMW racers do it, but I know from other brands like Merc, moving, and changing the coolers is one of the things. Like getting a transcooler out from infront of the radiator to out near a wheel arch. So some of the stuff you've got crammed in the middle front, spread it out and open up where you can in the bar to get more air in to the sides.
    • Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.
    • Just weld it onto the hot pipe. If you want it right after the turbo, put it right after the turbo. Or rip the comp cover off and drill and tap a hole into it.
    • hahaha glad I can rely on you two to go on a spiral at the drop of a problem! Some quick answers....the ducting is excellent top bottom and sides....everything that gets in goes through the coolers (noting the oil cooler redirects it out again, fair call if it is cooling 120o+) and the heat exchanger for the intercooler also has some scoops to pick up more than it's fair share too. I can't see going down the water spray track....no bueno for formal racing and a big risk for long rally days if you run out (plus I'm not clear if it is allowed there either yet).   Frankly, it must be possible to reliably put 400kw through a standard front end, the BMWs do it so I just need to work it out....I'm starting with reducing blockages in the way and adding some coolant capacity with a bigger header tank, flushing rad and making sure it was filled/bled properly (I didn't do the last coolant change); also taken measurements incase next step is a bigger/higher capacity custom radiator
    • wow, a completely stock GTR! I've got to admit, I have no idea from what you are describing....do you have  any idea where the "thump" comes from, and are you certain it is the HICAS light not something else like the cat overheat light?
