    Run zoomies through the hood. Jk.

    Hopefully we can both finish our cars and do burnouts

      It's funny when I picture this car being done I don't picture it at the track (which is my new goal for the car), I picture myself in a parking lot with the throttle down choking on white smoke.

      We'll have a BYOT (bring your own tires) party

      It's been a bitch so far. I need a lift or a hand to make any real progress, but I cleared my schedule for tonight to see what I can get done. All I have at this point is the exhaust manifolds made and my old E39 exhaust I plan on frankensteining. Driver side down pipe is proving to be a real pain in the ass.

      I feeel ya! I've built a few exhaust at my current shop now, and I have gravel for most of my garage floor LOL. 

      Between that, and having broke my back when I was younger, and still having a couple herniated disc's, life is real hard without a lift! haha.

          Yeah I am getting excited. If I can get at least my downpipes finished by this weekend I will be happy.

          Anyone in the Milwaukee area that is decent at wiring is welcome to come help with unlimited beers provided.

            Which one of these do I need to tap into for the fuel pump?

            I assume is the fuel pump and one transfers fuel from one side of the tank to the other?

              I think there's three lines off the tank. Fuel send/return and the third is a breather line that runs up to a charcoal canister and then to a purge valve to the intake. The connector on the furthest left of the pic looks pretty similar to the coolant level sensor, I'd imagine it's gas level (?) the middle connector is probably for the fuel pump. Don't quote me, just guessing

                Yeah it's 3 connectors but I'd have to go look at the e30 Tomorrow.

                  So the pump wires are on top?

                    Down pipes and gutted cats are in. I need to way to trick the secondary O2 sensors so I don't have a CE light on all the time. I am thinking I can tap into the primary and run a resistor or buy those O2 spacers that trick them into thinking the cats are there and working.

                    Mach up - Thought it looked pretty cool.

                    Waiting on my C101 and then I can start the wiring. Still need to tweak and reinforce the remote booster and run all the plumbing.

                      What DNA radiator are you running? Looks to be thicker than an e30/e36 one

                          It is supposed to be for an E30. I wish it was wider, but I will wait to see what my coolant temps are and change if needed.

                          Haven't looked any further into the wiring. I got as much done on the exhaust as I can until my hangers show up. Pretty happy with everything thus far.

                            Just make the o2 spacers with spark plug antifoulers. I know plenty of people that have made them with great success and for about $4.

                              Do M62s use the secondary O2s for air/fuel or just to see if the cats are working?

                                  If it is a TUB engine, they are used for air/fuel I believe. The early models do not use them for anything other than cat monitoring, as Snap said.

                                        TU = totally useless.

                                        just set the cams to 'hot' and leave them alone BMW, this isn't risotto.

                                          A lot of my exhaust was just tacked up so I finished as much as I could before running out of argon yesterday. Started the wiring and just picked up some more argon to hopefully finish the full exhaust this weekend.

                                          Bad news is I seem to have a rear main seal leak or a transmission seal leak.
