I am of the opinion that a 6 cyl whiteblock is a more cost effective way to make good streetable power than a redblock, these days. Pretty well every redblock needs pistons and machine work, whereas nearly every whiteblock can get away with cleaning and re-assembly with chinese rods. Then there...

I think it'll be okay. The ZF 320 is beefy, I've got the 6 puck clutch disk from MKM with a Sachs motorsport pressure plate.

Haven't dynoed it and I'm still running conservative timing and probably way more water/meth than I need. Don't want to blow it up. Yes, it peaks at 28psi and tapers off to like 26 at 7000rpm. Once I can tune it I'll wind it out to 8000rpm, but I think I'm running out of turbo at that point...

I'm running 28psi from a GTX3076R Gen2 on stock 2.8 T6 pistons, with H beam rods. I had the piston crowns coated in Cerakote thermal barrier piston coating. I run a 1200cc water meth nozzle with 60% meth. They're fine. If you're worried about them, get used 2.3 T5 pistons, the top ring sits a...

They would need to be maroon in color. I'm not going to go through tracking down and purchasing 850R seats and then reupholstering them in the right color and still having a seat that isn't what I want. Braum Racing makes a maroon color seat that matches well and is reasonably priced, also has...

I used them for my 760, using 940 seats. Fit is good, but not perfect. A little too tight in some spots but I made it work. I'd echo the concerns of The Full Banana and say don't get the piping. It's wearing down after about a year. I'll be installing aftermarket seats at some point anyhow, the...

This is at 10psi (wastegate pressure)

I've got a solid street tune on the thing now that the roads are dry enough to get some grip, it's great. Off boost it's got enough torque that even with the 6 puck clutch it's okay in traffic. 4 cyls and even my 5 cyl Audi just don't drive like this. Feels similar to my E46. On boost is just...

Mine squeal extremely loud but only when they're hot. Like during and after spirited driving. All the pads I've seen have a shim bonded to the back, as part of the pad. I'm going to try cleaning and lubricating everything.

I'll be damned. No longer available. I guess I've got the monopoly on them then....

Are these crp kits not available anymore? I bought 3 of these kits a couple years back when I was setting up a couple S38s and an S14 for a guy, I also use them for redblocks and hoard shims from wreckers and mic them and mark the sizes.

DIRY?

What is the difference in the 95+ pedal and master?

Get a magnetic digital angle finder from amazon for 20 bucks, Jack up the car and make sure it's sitting level, push both adjustments in all the way. Take the wheels off. Then stick the angle finder to the brake rotor face to see the angle (doesn't matter its not at ride height, we just want...

Don't worry about exceeding 3k rpm to break in. Taking it too easy on an engine can actually make it not break in properly.

Kinugawa and Mamba both sell hood quality turbos and accessories.

That turbo is toast. I recommend the Mamba 16T available on Ebay. Already set up for RWD if you order the 940 version, can get a kit with oil and coolant lines that bolt up too.

Digging this. I'm wanting to put ITBs on my 1800. Mostly for aesthetics / sound.

I've never considered knock sensing as a tuning tool, more like a last line of defense against a bad tank of fuel. If it works even once for that, it's worth it.

https://www.mkmotorsport.se/products/bmw-320d-6vxl-omsvetsad-till-volvomotor/ This uses the M47 prop shaft. You will also need their transmission crossmember, they also sell a shifter that bolts in.
