This switch wil make sure there is no power on the system once shifted into 2nd
You don t want the brake to engage when at speed
Gr henri

[andy198712]

thats gonna be great! should be a really solid brake right?!

[mr horsepower]

Hello loungers.
I have my ecu back from repair
And it works ok .
I also have the transbrake working
And i must say its quite a kick in the but when i realese the button.
I am amazed how good it works .
I did a few 3000 rpm test launches on the street
And it puls verry hard now and got a quicker spool up also.
Now i have to dail it in on the launch control button .
I decided to go to drachten this weekend .
I going to try to get the car in the 12s that would be my best et ever
Lets see.

Gr henri

[mr horsepower]

[fahrvergnugen]

Drachten?

[mr horsepower]

Hello
There are still ecu issues
Lack of power due misfires
But still did a 13.5 with bad start
And engine misfire on verry low boost.
Got a vid of the run
If that problem wasnt there
A 12 would be no problem
Wil post later.
And come back on it
The autobox and transbrake
Did a fantastic job.
The car is a blast to drive
Check the vid and judge

Very nice! Will be interesting to see how much power the auto box can handle. I have been playing with the automatic trans thought, but the "experts" say the auto bus trans is not strong enough. Cool if you can share in details the upgrades you have done to the box.

I found the limit with stock wbx parts and turbo this season, 1,8bar boost, 412hp = bent one rod, cracked a liner and also cracked a piston (cast) at my 10,89 run 

[Erlend / bug66]

What ECU are you running?

Sounds like you are really(!) soft on how to build boost on the line?

[mr horsepower]

What ECU are you running? 2

Sounds like you are really(!) soft on how to build boost on the line?

There lays also the problem sometimes there is not enough power to get it in to high rpm on transbrake.
Due a faulty ecu
Sometimes it will lauch good .
Wil work on that.
The ecu is a kms system

Good job Henri.

That are good numbers
Hope you get it fixed for next year.
About the tranny its quite beef i most say and it deliver the power trough  the converter so the shockloads are
Way less than a manual set up
I am sure it can handle the power easy when propperly build .
In the audi 200 turbo and porsche 944 the use it to
And they are verry reliable .
I wil try to run the pro et series next year with the car and change some things in the winter
Get a new ecu and make a bump box for the tranny
Also have to change to diskbrakes as i am on the limit now on the drums with the heavy car

Thanks, yes it will be fixed and upgraded for the 2017 season. Gowesty have forged 96mm WBX pistons from JE and Westwood Cylinders will make me ductile liners. Also Pauter rods are in the plan

Looking forward to see your upgrades and results next year!
(please pad your cage, your helmet is dangerously close to it   )

[mr horsepower]

so as the winter started .
i first getting some disk brakes on the car .
as the plan is to go faster in 2017
i was looking for the rigth set up for me
and made it 5x4,75 around
so i can swithc from street to strip easy as i have 2 sets wheels now...
 then  i wil take the transmission out to get it a firm check and
change where neccecery i wil post pics from that ..
the converter is getting a different stall speed so it has to be opened ..
for the rest i will change little things or improve smal thingz
i think this is verry doable for this winter
and i can put the car at the lights in 2017 again..

Cool, and ally too? what sort of years are they from?

I am just guessing but 15-20 years old.
Pop in to any scrap yard with BMW 3 and 5 series older cars.
Do not mention alloy or price will go up. just have a look at them.
You see that they are thicker.
I have two different off-set versions.  Both are 6,5 x 15 but slightly different. One with fully round holes and one with a slightly oval type of hole.
Most of my wheels have a small sticker warning about just that they are alloy and if I recall right, to torque correctly.

[andy198712]

Cool! if they work on your car and Crazy frogs they'll be fine on mine 

[mr horsepower]

verry true...
but if you use like i do the 120.3 bolt patern instead of the 120 or 120.6
you can also use the jaguar spare aloy wheels and they are verry llight

Ahh, by the way, the BMW ones are not spares.
Regular mounted on all four Wheels.
