M-tech 2 front/rear(only lower part)


Why only lower?

Racing clutch
Aluminum flywheel


I swapped m20 flywheel after it was lightened and balanced ~5.5kg withpreloaded 0.5mm sachs clutch. I thing it's more than enough with ours Nm and the price is mutch lower..

Upgraded brakes


Brakes upgrade is must for serious racing. Mine are from E38 728  aluminium 4 pot calipers (only 6 cilinder versions from ~95 have aluminium calipers), now I am whaiting ferodo DS3000 brake pads, and sandtler monza seat ;0

To Romka

Only lowerpart because i think it looks better, something like this. Want to get these sideskirts too, look awsome.


Aluminum flywheel because i might get it even cheaper than m20 conversion.

As for brakes i totally agree with you, they are complete MUST for serious racing. Before doing engine you MUST have good suspension to keep car on the road, and good brakes to stop the car.

For me m20 flywheel conversion costed about 50Eu with starter modification + new sachs clutch about 100Eu.

Bumper looks better, but who cares when you driving at 100+ km/h ? :D
I care only about weight ;)

I think it is safe, because most racing cars use them and they rev atleast 8000+rpm. And japanese high revving engines.

It's coming together :) starting to look awsome, but still tons of stuff to do, all the little things are taking so much time and nerves.

Enjoy!

I want to see it all assembled too. It looks better with every piece i add.

Yes it's not original paint, searched from paint samples.

These wheels were just mounted to one side to get better pic. (Not mine. And tires are mounted correct, these wheels are both front ones 8,5". Rear ones are 10" wide, wanted to put them for photoshoot but offset was wrong, and only had 20mm spacers). I haven't decided yet what wheels i'll buy. All i know yet that they will have big lip. (Borbet, Keskin, Azev, Brock, Bbs, Schmidt, Ronal, Oz, Ats, Rh...)

And one pic, with some things added today.
