one day and the new engines in, just trouble shooting now!
the wire that reads the rpm was destroyed and it wouldn't start, so getting the part tomorrow.
Hopefully be back on the road soon! fingers crossed.
Ive updated my project thread if any of you want to see more photos :D

good job, bet you cant wait to crank it for the first time its properly ready to run :smiley:
-
I can't wait at all :)
I want to hear the 3" exhaust the most if I'm honest!
-
Good work so far mate. I can't wait to get my exhaust on either...
-

Hell yeah! That is really nice!
I've got plans to clean everything up, polished manifold and smooth rocker also polished.
I gave the engine bay a good clean while the engine was out also!
Just on a tight time limit I need it on the road!

haha no worries dude i know what its like! Ill drop you a mail if i get stuck though! :smiley:
-
I can second that mate!
Spend your time on it within reason, atleast if your around whilst its getting put in youl have an idea where evrything is. This is what I loved about my Bora, something went wrong I knew what it was lol
Get ready to be in debt now buying mods too :whistle:
Im abit pissed that I spend stupid money on my Bora and now iv bought a bimmer a simple remap and its already as quick as I left the Bora go at :sad: that said the bimmer apart from going sideways isnt as fun as the Bora was :cool:
-
Im there with the spending stupid money but thats not why you do it is it, its a hobby plain and simple!
We probably havent spent as much as girls spend on make up thats what I say!
-
Jamie what bmw you gone for dude?
I agree though, this is a hobbie and im only building this for myself! It does cost a lot and is an expensive hobbie but i enjoy it + i'm learning where things are like you said. I'm no mechanic by far but nothing better than a group of mates and a load of tools and engines haha
