Made some progress one the inlet manifold. The original lower manifold has been machined flat. When that was done i was able to measure the exact location of the runners. Made a 3D drawing for a plate that will be welded on the runners and in the planum. Next day got myself a plate of alluminum and started machining. Plate done, and fits perfect! Now the plenum needs to be machined and then everything can be welded together.
This awesome! Out of curiosity, what clutch setup are you intending to use? Have you implemented a PMC flywheel spacer/adapter?
Tanks! The car is going to be daily driven therefore i bought an original BMW clutch. It's supposed to take 600nm of torque, so we'll see how it holds. The PMC flywheel is fitted directly to the flexplate.
Nice build, have you got much experience with the dta ecu?? I can't PM you for some reason Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Thanks, yeah i've already send driftworks mails abbout that but they wont reply anymore, my email is in the profile. This could use some update's, will be working on I know my way round dta.
I can't find your email I have a map for a 1jz vvti if that's any use? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Have been buissy with some other shit lately, but made some small progress: catch can mount made, This is one of those ebay things (god i love ebay). It has been modified to fit a breath to atmosphere filter, filled with stainless steel wool, pipes with holes and a crane on the bottom. Also the previous owner of the car did some weight reduction with 5mm holes i guess.. Looked awful so welded those. A local company had some of those alloy radiators in stock. This one seems to fit best, for a Toyota corolla. Unfortunately the dimmensions they gave were +- 10 cm i guess... have to make that fit later. did some more work on the tunnel but forgot to take pictures
How much did the pmc kit cost you ? Car looks cool I have a 940 with tuned redblock Where abouts in the Netherlands do you stay in sometimes go to tilburg
Nice to see other people like it! Only one thing.. The bottom gearbox bolt is off. Send me an email for it. The PMC kit is on ebay.. Don't know what the current price is. Tilburg is a bit far from here .. does Texel say anything to you? Currenty The project is a bit on a stop. Bought a 71'' cadillac that needs a little attention as daily.
Thanks for the reply man!!! But Yea I am also going to do the 2jz ge swap, to a beautiful cream colored 81 Volvo 240 i have already removed the engine and trans , and I was wondering if its not too much of your time if you could send me everything that I need and the measurements of everything that was custom fab derrickoking94@gmail.com
Leuk om te zien dat dit iemand in Nederland doet, hoe ga je het doen met de rdw etc. Ben het waarschijnlijk zelf ook van plan alleen dan met een gte blok. Ben benieuwd naar het eindresultaat
nice job 2JvLo really liked your job and brilliant idea to machine the plate so you can use GS6-53DZ in my e46 318ci 1jzvvti drift build i am using the same adapter+ flywheel from pmc and e46 330ci clutch but fortunately i run bmw e46 318ci RMFD-5 speed gearbox cuz in middle east we do not have bmw diesel models so i have to import the GS6-53DZ still cheaper than r154 !!!!! i was thinking to lengthening transmission input shaft but i think i will do same as you i will just machine the adapter plate and sorry for my bad English
The T5 swap looked clean! I have a 945 which had a T5 but the swap didn't look as nice as yours Picture Now I'm doing a Swedish 2jz... T6 with a HX40.
