Jordanrolla Posted September 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 there isnt a hint of an intercooler behind the grill without it painted. I do plan to fix all the small dings and just a simple re-spray in gloss white. Might spray the wheels matt black aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordanrolla Posted December 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 (edited) Brake's finally sorted and i have now had a chance to have a half decent drive of this thing with NO clunks or concerning noises coming from the car. Without a doubt or exaggeration i would have to say this is the most FUN i have ever had in a car! It is everything its supposed to be which is built to be tough as nails, quick, awsome handling and is good enough on the juice to drive everyday. To drive this thing is pure bliss, the satisfaction from building 100% of this car is a great feeling. I don't wanna sound like I'm ego tripping or nothing but f@$k I BUILD A GOOD CAR! shortened the struts last light and a vid of just a moderate acceleration. http://s238.photobucket.com/albums/ff297/Jordan1977/?action=view¤t=Picture166.mp4 Just short of a lsd installation for skid vids Edited December 12, 2010 by Jordanrolla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerhead Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Sounds porn dude - great to see you've got the beast on the road - I can see the light of the tunnel on my KE now - can't wait for the joy of driving it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trev Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 Doesn't even sound like a mitsu, good work. One thing I loved about working on 4g63's are those big sharp cam gears :laff: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordanrolla Posted December 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 thanks guys, feels so good to be able to pull it up in the garage and not put it on stands and fix it (or try to). I agree trev, alot of the time it doesnt even sound like a 4g63 especially in the video but in the car if you listen close enough you'd be able to pick it. I think its got alot to do with the exhaust, the way it was made. It may get changed later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleRedSpirit Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Nice welds on the mounts btw. :blush: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUZ440 Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 (edited) Nice work mate, the sound of a 4G63 with a 20G roar is wikked, make sure to use the stock E7 ECU with EVOscan, you might be surprised how much tuning and datalogging you can get out of it, and with the super AUD is a bargain with the cable and software, My only suggestion other than the nifty engine mounts, most RWD converted 4G63 engines i have seen use an engine plate mount to the stock driver(front in your case) engine mount on the chassis rails otherwise than the massive torque these engines spit on 4WD system to a RWD is gonna be awesome Edited December 18, 2010 by NISROLA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comtoy Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 damn i like it should do some engine mods to this extreme then it will be a handful http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1575817 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
