Here's a shot just then, it's a bit dark.

I assume car won't dose as mad as it did with the Hypergear ATR45SAT 6+6 VL ulleh spec cast compressor, but fast is best.

Dose all comes down to the intake pipe. 

Man I miss the way mine used to flutter. 

Actually got told one day I really should remove the atmospheric BOV before another copper defects me for it... Full boost shifts used to sound like those stupid obnoxious atmo BOVs. 

Low boost shifts, or just rolling on and off the throttle used to make some nice long slow flutters... Mmmmm flutter...

Yes and no :)

GTX compressor wheels (and similar) don't dose as well as 6+6 wheels.

Ever heard any car with a GTX wheel dose mad? Never lol

So when the tuner askes me what my goals are in relation to boost, my answer should be.....MAD DOSE....

Proper dose brings us together as people.

Lek Shu baby, got some new Nissan coil packs and a new loom. As @WantGTR would say, it's "kinda cute".

Couldn't hear the dose?

Turbosmart 50mm single gate, should be plenty for this heap of shit car. Fitted up 4AN fittings and running teflon lines from the gate to the Turbosmart 4x port solenoid, all wired up to the Halalkebabtech.

Wish I never starting building this heap of shit and bought a BMW.

Anyhow, if anyone needs Turbosmart products, you know who to ask. I can get anything from their range at a competitive price :)

Look at the neat tool lay out.

My tools live in a couple of boxes which get tipped out to find stuff.

I keep thinking about what car I want next, I don't have a clue though, it does need to go around corners well, and be RWD, and manual......I'm a idiot.......

Oh, that looks good.

I am scared of the reliability factor, BMW's were rubbish when I was growing up, poor after sales and blindingly expensive for parts and to service.

I was told if I really wanted one to buy it new and then sell it before the warranty ran out.

Have things changed?

Nope

in fact talking to someone who works at a bmw dealership every time one comes in for service they can send it out with an essay of repairs that are required

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
