Dread_smurf's BMW - E30 2JZ  

zenki 14

sweet ride and good choice with going to 6boost

dread_smurf

Wow thanks for the response guys!
As for the brake upgrade i am looking into some brakes from a place overseas called massive brakes
which are made for track BMW's so it's just a case of popping them on!
I was going to go a setup jason has done on his BMW which was the gtr brakes but again
simplicity of the bolt on is a lot easier!
and the tail shaft should be off to the shop sometime in the next week to get done
and as for the diff (hmmmm locked)
and hopefully next fortnight when im home i will put in the walbro in tank fuel pump and new
fuel lines!
and justdave im not really sure if its worthy of fast fours hahaha

cheers

VERRY NICE I USED TO OWN OZBMA THE M3 WITH THE 2JZ THEY GO REAL HARD GOOD WORK AND GOOD TO SEE YOU GOT ROSS FROM RJ PANEL AND PAINT TO DO THE WORK HE THE BEST

Gfunkk

wow man nice write up, i have too many questions so maybe im better off reading the whole thing at eurocca

dread_smurf

No actually the panel beating and painting was done threw 2 of my mates! 100+hrs of paint work alone!
adam was the painter and roy was my panel beater who did all the work at his house!
I don't think they like me anymore hahaha, But at the end of the day they put in a cr@p
loads of hours to get it to the standard i wanted and they wanted aswell...
Yeah that ozbma m3 was turning point in not painting my car orange
What mods had been done to that monster?
Ohhh and a bit of an update i was just talking to jason and he told me he wants to start wiring
in a fortnight when i get back and he also wanted to mention we will be going to use an adaptronic
when it goes to single turbo!

dread_smurf

dread_smurf

It set me back $3500 including paint which is pretty damn cheap with the amount
of parts he still has to paint! and $3000 for beating! But you pay for what you get and
i am veeeeery happy with the quality paint job i have! and again it was mates rates!

dread_smurf

Ummm i prefer not to add it up last time i did it scared me a bit lmao!
But lets just say it's between the 10-15k mark so far! So not toooo bad!
Jesus i didn't know i would get such a good response!
One thing i have noticed but since starting the build and putting it on the net is
no 1 has anything bad to say about it! Everyone actually likes it!
Thanks for the comments guys! Let me know your suggestions if you have any....

i think you should buy this lol

whats left to do mate

sutherland373

thats gunna be a rig im thinking about putiin the same thing into a datsun 1200 ute

dread_smurf

Hahahaha that would be sick and probably blow everything to pieces in the old BMW
Im not sure of what sort of horsepower i want to chase yet, im thinking maybe a bit over 500hp atw,
would go hard in the e30 and pull some good times! I want usable power not a dyno queen!
(but it would be cool to have 1000hp) But first things first lets get it going!
As for whats left their is still a bit of a list about half a page long! Things like:
Tailshaft
Fuel pump
Fuel lines
Brake Booster
Brakes
Suspension (coming)
Wiring
A few pieces of silicon for the cooler piping
Bottom radiator hose
and a few other bits and pieces i can't think of at the moment,
but mainly things have to just be put back in like alot of seals and trust me i have plenty of brand new parts to be put back on!
But first things first, after i have finished with the engine/engine bay, is to take it back to the paint shop
so he can wet rub the whole car and put the windows back in!
