Dieselboost's 524compoundTD

[DieselBoost]

well guys say goodbye to ve6 pump... not for the next summer but in next engine.... i just got bosch p-series 113 scania's pump...

it was cheap 250e and it has 10mm plungers... well few modifications and re-sealing + service and it will be good for installing... which is quite challenging operation but done before by other guys...

Like in this Volvo d24td http://harri82.1g.fi/kuvat/Muita%20auto ... /_full.jpg
i have seen video about this car running....

and in this mercedes om606 engine too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kE0FjNPeosU

[DieselBoost]

Just bought new tools with almost 300e to garage and compressor too....

but the best what i bought is new Nova cut50 plasmacutter.... say goodbye for angle grinder :P

[DieselBoost]

Well i has new parts for my future engine, just bought an M57D30TU 90mm crank shaft for my m21

[DieselBoost]

New parts again.... new gearbox for future.... i just got an E36 M3 5speed zf gearbox.... goodbye for old getrag 260

[Jelmer538i]

The M50 family engines sit at an higher angle than the M20 family engines, how are you going to do that?

[DieselBoost]

If it does not fit... i will make it fit.... by cutting getrag's case and welding it to the zf's case, like in many other transmissions fitted to totally different cars...

today i bought some parts for the summer and the inspection of the year...
New front stock shocks + top bearings, dust guards and bumps guards...

i will get my coils set in next winter so now need to drive with these

[DieselBoost]

Just got info from my friend who has m3 zf gearbox in m20 engine in he's racing car.... he said that it fits directly to m20 based engines like m21 but in little bit different angle, so shifter is positioned only little bit different

[slammin_e28]

Ya, M20 will tilt the box like 10 degrees....so you have to twist the selector mount and rod a bit and do up a custom trans mount.

[DieselBoost]

Almost ready for the road

I will post some pics in my eyecandy section... so stay tuned up

[DieselBoost]

well i have an deadline.... 22.5 our bmw meet, i will be there with my crap pile...

biggest problem is that i dont have plenty of time caused by my work... but it will be ready soon :P

Nope...

M30B28 flywheel with sre 240mm pressure setup and regular organic LUK plate

I has been little lazy with my biturbo engine project, all parts are in my storage and ext manifold is ready etc...

But old singleturbo engine is now running good and clutch works better than ever.
now im welding bonnet hole shut and modified old intercooler tubes, so now they are under front skirt
little electrics mods are done like kill switch in trunk and soldered joints in 16mm power cable

so at this moment everything almost perfect for next summer

[DieselBoost]

It seems that my car is going to inspection in two weeks, after that it is again on the road...
I will do some mods for this summer still..... it will look more classy 80s tuning soon
-bbs rs 17" replica wheels
-bbs front spoiler
-two 80s antennas at trunk
-silver stripe tape on side (two striped)

I want to go with louver, but i dont have one.... i want window wind deflectors too... but i can only find those for front doors

Now intercooler is hidden in front, and hole in bonnet is deleted...
Engine is same old one, but biturbo setup is what im doing for this summer...

[DieselBoost]

almost everything is ready for road....
My compound twin turbo setup is ready and finished... ready for final assembly...

[DieselBoost]

Today i just got car inspected and road use... so there will be updates soon...

[DieselBoost]

And here is some incar video of my compound setup https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNZOK_ihtvM

[T_C_D]

Cool!

[DieselBoost]

I broke it again!!!

Head gasket is leaking again.... due to old block surface and mls gasket... BUT...

There was 255hp and 600nm i want more, but injection pump fails again

[etwoate]

Sooo has anyone ever heard from him ever again... I have been reading and studying this thread for a year and I decided to follow in his footsteps and see what I can do with my 524td from America and it’s still auto so bear with me

[DieselBoost]

BOOM!.... guess who is back!....

I has still my td, but it has been in storage from 2016 due to my day job and motivation.... and "few other projects"

I has two honda cbr 600f bikes... one is carby turbo and other is supercharged efi... both are old 90s bikes...

major change is, that i has own workshop with car lift, tig/mig welding machines, lathe, milling machine and many other machines in my shop...
AAAND.... i bought in 2019 Nitro harley, which is now my main project...

So im trying to get it ready that i can ride with it... not in next summer, but hopefully soon...

And what comes to my td.... my friend just finished my mercedes 8mm pump... im been waiting it about three years now

Love a good thread bump!

Ahh cars & bikes, I too have this problem. And it's not a bad problem to have!
Only so much time and money, but at least you still have the E28.
