Change your username to BOV Psssssssssssssssssssssssht then :D

Dose pipe installed, should dose pretty good :)

Last night, connected up all of the harness, re-pinned the CAS connector, and installed a new VCT plug to suit the R34 NEO head.

Next big challenge is to make all the oil lines for the oil relocator and oil cooler.

Overnight parts from Australia. This should help me blow the gear box faster!

It already grinds 2nd, 3rd, 4th and the input shaft has heaps of free play.

might have to till the box goes boom lol...

from there, well I am not sure.. these are my options:

  • New OEM Box, use it till it goes boom again
  • CD009 Conversion
  • PPG helical set

Started it on 14 month E85 lol... (dw cuz, has ethanol stabiliser in it)

Primed the oil first till it dribbled out of the relocator, plugged in the CAS and to my surprise it actually fired! I roughly rescaled the injectors on my old map and flattened out the timing as I now have no idea where peak torque would/could be made on this motor.

As of last night (after the car starting) all fluids are topped up and will take it for a light spin tonight. I've filled up the entire tank with 44L of 98RON, so might take it for a lap tonight and dump the oil before I start to push it a bit :)

Close to it so many times, believe me.

However if someone walked up right now and asked to trade for a N55 335i I would swap straight up.

    • Your both right, it may hold a bit longer then.  Soon I need to change the synchros, should I fit the billet plate while I'm at it? Or just a waste of money?
    • Some of the east coast US Stagea got together this past weekend at Lime Rock Park in CT for Grid Life Circuit Legends. This is probably my favorite pic of the shoot with @Morgan.Mundahl on IG. Hope we get more stags out next year! i think I spotted 5 other than my own at the event. 
    • Hi Cody, If you are looking for a simple "bolt in bolt out" solution, I may be able to help via trade. I'm swapping my auto RS4V from stock subframe to a reinforced S14 Rear subframe specifically for track duty. I was looking into different rear core options while the car was in air and I found your thread.   My VLSD rear is freshly changed fluid/inspected. I will say even with Redline diff fluid it is still not as aggressive as I would like with the "sports" viscous core, and coming from a heavily modded evo with full drivetrain I'm looking for a bit more rotation with the throttle.  I second this, the polyurethane bushings are pretty aggressive as is.  If you're interested in the trade, I am driving out to Chicago in September for a time attack event. I could swing by and make the trade somewhere Sept 12-13th or 15-16th if you are interested and you have not already solved this issue yourself. 
    • No, the panel filter is the standard dry one. Yes, I did clean the AFM with electrical contact cleaner.
