  1. How BMW gets 'some' Ackerman in a front steer package (E30 M3)... I can't say what percentage the E30 has. What I can say is, a while back I CAD'd up a rearward movement of an S30 rack (around 1.25"), and a surprisingly notable improvement was made. Not anything close to 100%, but enough to warrant consideration, in my opinion.
  2. You speak the truth. Lengthening the the TC rods increases Ackerman.
  3. Joel, You may be able to avoid the international shipping... they're in GA http://auberins.com/
  4. Yup, Anders has done a beautiful job boosting a nearly stock S14. Internally stock save for the 2.5L bump, a little healthier intake cam, and a Cometic head gasket (CR now 8.5:1). He's nearly maxing out four 750cc injectors... you do the math. Anders is a Mid-Ohio record setter... suspension/brakes have been addressed as well. I've driven the car a few times and it's one of the most entertaining car's I've ever driven. He still heckles me for selling my M3. http://www.s14.net/forums/showthread.php?t=33808
  5. A test fit... The pictures really don't do it justice. It seems much nicer in person. I'm liking it, so far. Finishing the ends may be one of the more challenging aspects. Got a couple different ideas I'm kicking around.
  6. I'm behind on the SR updates. You'll just have to forgive An interim update for now... Probably my least favorite thing about a 510 is the instrument panel. Can't really explain it. I just don't like it (see post #1). Since completing the SR swap, I've been running around dashless, with nothing more than water temp and fuel gauge dangling from the underlying dash frame. It's gotten OLD. Very old. Different ideas have been rattling around in my head for a while, and long story short, I finally settled on a fairly simple design. It includes seven VDO Vision gauges, and an Innovate G5 AFR gauge. Plasma cut and formed from 1/8" Aluminum... Much left to do... contouring/welding up the end panels, mounting, wiring, misc. switches & indicator lights, vents, finish work, etc. Gauges- Speedometer Tachometer Boost AFR Water Temp. EGT Air Temp. (serving double duty as both ambient and post intercooler) Fuel
  7. Bus's rock. I've owned two (both 1970) and hope to again someday. Thanks for sharing!
  8. I assume you don't have the book then? Having one will make your life easier Chevrolet Part#3990332. 1965-1972 Chev. truck.
  9. Uh, no. One moderator moved one thread to the shed. Now would be an excellent time to dispense with the false acusations
  10. Because a post-calculated AFR is not the same as a pre-calculated AFR. With current technology there is some delay... the distance from the chamber to the O2 sensor, sensor response time, and the ECU's reaction time become a factor with rapid engine acceleration. On a static dyno, salt flat car, stationary engine, etc, closed-loop WOT can work well because the transition rates are either slow or non-existent. A turbo car making a blast through low gears happens too quickly for closed-loop to work properly. Expect accelerated brake wear
  11. "At any time after tuning is finished the values in the target closed loop table can be changed, and the engine will automatically run the new air fuel ratio"
  12. It runs horrible. 2 cylinders at best. Pretty sure its going to need a full rebuild.... and the tranny... don't even start.
  13. I'm not liking you very much right now. I miss my M...
  14. Thanks Joel. It's nice to these posts.
  15. the z, There is no point in welding any LSD diff. On its own, an LSD is a 'tractive aid'. You can weld a stock diff, usually inexpensively... http://www.hyper-productions.net/pics/diff.html Either of these choices will get you closer to the effect you're looking for. It's time for you to snuggle up with our search engine, and Google as well... http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=125970 http://www.google.com Happy reading.
