Finally, the moment of the week i’ve been waiting for! My CF fuel rail cover!. I’ve seen the mould and now, the final product straight from the vacuum bag! though it hasn’t been thoroughly cleansed, the
cover looks awesome. every little detail is there. I especially like the raised epoxy BMW roundel and lines. Though it would better if it Continue reading
One reason why i wanted to get these one-off exhaust manifolds made is because i needed them and also, they’re a must-have!. It’s a needed part purely because the stock ones just won’t clear the Right hand drive steering shaft.
It’s a tough job trying to make these stainless steel manifolds. lotsa clearance issues especially where Continue reading
A hot engine needs a cool fan. It’s gotta be an electric fan Duke Racing supplied the part. This is a 12″ 1650cfm Billion Industries fan. Billion is a company based in Japan, churns our huge lines of performance products mainly for Japanese cars. They also supply OEM parts to those makes Continue reading
Okay, though these are just for aesthetics, you gotta admit, they look really good. So what’s new? As i’ve mentioned, the guys at Duke Racing wrapped this babies over with CF and they have just cut off around it to make it look more practical. The wrap-over is almost impossible to be perfect simple due to Continue reading
Here are the pictures of the poweflexes for the E34 in a complete kit!. I ordered them through a Singapore dealer Hotwheels for a good deal. The package took like 2 weeks to arrive which isn’t too long. I am really happy with the way it is package. For some people, package makes a difference. They are boxed in various sized, semi-transparent packaging Continue reading
Okay. great news, a friend of mine have just collected my bushes from the dealer. It’s been freshly shipped from the UK. I’ve waited long and hard for them to arrive. Will be meeting him later to collect them from him.. Pics later…
Some pictures of my painted intake manifolds. I chosed a red and black theme. If you got it, flaunt it. Which explains the red pipes, all 12 of them. The intake manifold are really special, they are 2 seperate interlocking pieces.
But what’s also interesting is, they are 2 exact same pieces, just reversed, and!, the right intake manifold will supply air to the left bank of the 6 cylinders and the right manifold to the left cylinder bank! Continue reading
The good guys at Duke Racing who’s in charge of the whole conversion applied their carbon fiber building and wrapping skills on my head covers. I opted for CF wrap-on on my head covers and full CF injector cover since it’s much more obvious being one of the highlights of the engine bay and the fact that it’ll be removed from time to time for Continue reading
Okay, fast forward. The old M20 2.5 engine is out and sold. The V12 however, is in the engine of my E34! The intake manifolds have been cleansed and sprayed in a red and black theme and the head covers are wrapped in carbon fiber. I will post the pics up soon
Custom exhaust manifolds have to be made to clear the steering shaft since in Asia, most of us drive a right-hand-drive. I’ve already thought of my design for it. They wil be made tomorrow.
The early stages of my V12 Conversion, which started on October 4th 2007 when i first bought the donor engine from a E32 750i. Continue reading
