Yep, that is the plan for tonight. If that doesn't work check the inside of the booster for fluid as I believe that is where it could be leaking?

My brakes are turning into a project of their own. I am waiting to install my coils to install the BBK and I want to clean up some of the plumbing. I am hoping to get it running as is, then take it down for a weekend or over winter and get everything how I want it.

Also, I need to make sure all my return springs are there and linked where they should be. I have one in place, not sure if there is supposed to be another.

Is this a hydroboost setup?  sorry, I didnt search through the thread/couldnt remember

[CMart]

Remote booster setup. E34 v8 I believe.

Also, sent for the plates today. Went with "V 80 30"

i can take pictures of mine if you need them for comparison.

I meant E30. I'm confident my remote linkage is there. Without being hooked up to hydraulics it all works.

Hell yes. Nice work!

[CMart]

Thanks. Not sure why the potato quality happened. Need to go pick up a go pro I guess.

Go Pro's cost nearly the same as a set of rear tires....priorities haha

Thanks! Don't think I am going to make it tomorrow. It was fun for a short drive, but still far from steetable. I'm happy its running well. Going to rip it all apart again and get the coilovers, BBK, weld in reinforcements, and hopefully a cage in there.

[CMart]

Picked this up as a just in case motor. Then I thought, why not throw some nitrous at the current. Then after getting it on the stand I couldn't help but think, why not build some turbo manifolds?

Not sure what to do yet, but I'm sure it will be fun.

[REKIII]

have fun.....

[CMart]

I was thinking something much simpler. Log style.

I will more likely than not go nitrous for simplicity sake.

[CMart]

Got the coils off the other car today.

Need to wait for the BBK adapter to show up before I try to install on the coupe, but already curious how I am going to get these dialed in between height and spring rate.

[KaiserRolls]

Put them on. Let car settle. Adjust. Repeat as necessary

[KaiserRolls]

Are you swapping stuff from the coupe back to the vert? (suspension wise)

[CMart]

Yeah. I had a nice koni/bilstein/H&R setup for the coupe so I sold that and the vert is getting the oem stuff.
