i think im little bit rusted since i had last gig about year a go....

[DieselBoost]

nice... i did something at last...

I made mount for my new lift pump and pre filter and i connected fuel lines too...

now i have fuel pressure gauge...

tomorow i will connect electrics and will adjust fuel pressure
maybe some test driving too....

winter is so near that i must take some burnout videos before first snow...

[DieselBoost]

It works again...

Some video of acceleration would be nice and how turbo(s) work in action!

Crap... my car is falling apart...

Head lights electrics are fu***ng with me...
also clutch is doing same thing... (issue with slave cylinder)

there is also something loose inside drivers side back door...
+ my both front shocks are out of oil (koni sport)

good thing is that my car goes hibernation after sunday...
so maybe at next spring i will do something with it...

Damn! I really suffer with you.

But hey! Listen to me now!
You take it just nice and easy and you fix one of thoose problems at a time, and i promisde you it will feel much better afterwards!

It's really depressing and it feels like shit when everything falls apart at the same time.
I have lots of experience of it my self and i know today that it's so much easier and it feels so good if you just concentrate to fix one problem at the time.
When one shit is fixed you feel good inside, and then you want to feel more good!

So just grab your tools mate and get that f*cking beast running again!

[DieselBoost]

yep.... i got some burnout video... but it is too lame for publishing...

not enought fuel in tank so... air problems again....
my fuel capasitor is not working properly (caused by "air" line back to tank)

and i hit the only big puddle in the parking area....

so i may take new try someday or not...

[DieselBoost]

well... i published it....

expect nothing special...

i think my friends know better my car.... they where ooooHHHMMYYYYGOOOD!!! when i was accelerating with full power

[Alleslowbuged]

Hi,

if your car is registered and running, what about an dyno measurement? If i remember correctly you are running 1,9 bar of boost and have a big turbo, so this should bring some really serious power figures. As written so many time, i would really love to see, what peak power you reach and how quick the turbo spools.

Can we assume to see some dyno plots anytime soon?

Best Regards

[owly]

Actully now boost is something like 2.5-2-8bar

Must go to dyno someday.... first i must get new job or something and fix clutch slave sylinder...

and second... winter is coming... so it goes to next summer...

[DieselBoost]

I put some new pics about my td.... while it hibernates...

it rest like this until i get some job and money...
Everybody are happy in finland... pfft...

quite expensive car to maintain in here...
-tax for year 540e
-inspection for road about 100e
-insurance for year 450e-1000e
-fuel price about 1.50e/litre

[Jelmer538i]

Lucky guy! For a 524TD you pay almost €1500,- a year for road tax!

But when your car gets older than 25 years it is free of road tax.

Not in finland.... my td is 83' so its over 30yrs old...

those payments are every year and nothing will change.... this is what car costs in finland...

and if i have newer car.... you can double that cost...
this why finland has very old cars...

[DieselBoost]

Well while i got no money... but my friend has money and m40b16 engine...

just making part list for him...
im going to do turbo exhaust manifold for his engine...

power goal is 200hp so nothing special... but idea is that engine room looks factory like...

many people asks why the hell m40 engine....
main reason... it is almost freebie to make... we have three engines and friend just bought one with 50e

[DieselBoost]

nice christmas... not.... we dont have even a drop of snow in here.... imagine... Finland without snow...

so no winter drifting with nice cars etc...

anyway greetings for everyone from land of the darkness

[Alleslowbuged]

Hi,

i hope you have had a good christmas and also wand to wish a happy new year (at least in days).

Looking forward to see some more pics and data from your diesel bimmer next year.

Best Regards
Alleslowbuged

P.S.
My one has get a new water cooler and is now rock solid in regard of the coolant temperature. I run it with 1,2 or 1,3 bar of boost for the last couple of weeks and everything runs fine and it pulls very strong, even with this relative low boost level. I really love this machines, i am now also in some 325TDS, but even if the tds is reving a bit more keen, i more like the mechanical throttle feel from the 524TD engine.

[Alleslowbuged]

Hi,

some news from your car (engine)?

Best Regards

[DieselBoost]

Nope at all...

still winter in here... and i dont have garage...
i hope that i have enough cash to repair few issues and inspect it for summer....

and after that enough cash for driving it...

but i can say... nothing happens before 6.6
next summer will be with same engine setup (if i even drive with it)

[DieselBoost]

well it really looks that winter is over here... bit strange timing but it is really over finally

just thinking about my td and considering to get it in to the garage for repair jobs and making it ready for inspection...

but this is only maybe...

i will update soon

[DieselBoost]

Well i forget few issues with my car...

main problem is front shocks which are made by koni, they where leaking oil out whole summer and in the end they stopped working properly...

I need fix this issue before inspection, but i has limited amount of money, good thing is that im former hydraulics mechanic so i can fix those by my self.

so that was issue number 1.

issue number 2.

Slave cylinder of my clutch which does not working
clutch plate is weared a bit so pushrod of slave cylinder is too short, i try to make it bit longer if that helps.

there is more small issues what i need to fix... but i hope that i will get all fixed and at last i can make good burnout video for you
