A day after I get my car back from getting the clutch built I do this on my way home from work.....I wonder what its going to be like after the motor rebuild with double the boost

BLOWN · 08-13-2007, 08:44 AM

By the way....thats my tailshaft!

SMOKE EM IF U GOT EM!! · 08-13-2007, 09:29 AM

ummm.. wtf? lol

BLOWN · 08-14-2007, 12:44 AM

Your telling me

its off getting a custom made tailshaft to hold 600hp+ now. Defiantly don't want that to happen again. So lucky it didn't come through the floor.

I'm kinda thinking now the car isnt as strong as I thought it was. What's it going to be like when the motor is rebuilt with double the boost is the question??

astra · 08-14-2007, 01:58 AM

whoa, that's crazy! it got twisted like a piece of paper!

CaptOz · 08-14-2007, 02:50 AM

Is there a stronger tailshaft available from overseas Blown?

Cheers.

How come you didn't source a tailshaft out of the M3 and have it modified?

BLOWN · 08-14-2007, 06:09 AM

No there is no such thing as a aftermarket one for it. Also nothing M3 will fit my car.

So yeh custom made is the only way to go now. Im so over this scene now.

Sorry, fairly new here. What exactly are you trying to do with your car?

Bugger about the tailshaft, but given you seam to be chasing a very large increase in pwer surely the people doing the mods might have thought about drive train issues

Reiterate sorry for being a numbskull but I have not seen all the history hence the dopey question.

That sucks to hear dude! Hopefully you'll get to the bottom of it all, its costly to run a 10 second pass in a BMW. You'll be looking at close to 6 figures to get the setup going and working with reliability and confidence in the set up. Especially since whoever's building the car hasn't built a 10 second BMW before.

Good luck getting it all sorted, I feel for you! Have you addressed the rear subframe problems BMW 3 series are notorious for??

fer360 · 08-14-2007, 07:56 AM

After you've got it all sorted out with the new custom tailshaft, I'd have the old one mounted and nailed on the wall as a trophy!

BLOWN · 08-14-2007, 07:01 PM

Nah not chasing any time down the quater no more. Im chasing relaibility more so now. I want to have it more then a few days at a time. So yeh few things will change to start that.

Then maybe I could attend a cruise then haha

BLOWN · 08-20-2007, 12:18 AM

Hmm yeh at the moment the Rx-7 is winning.

Good news though...all my parts for the US have arrived. So whilst the tailshaft is getting made its getting the motor cracked open. Get it back, run it in then BOOST it up and see what its capiable of.

Also the car now is known as BLOWN3. Ordered the plates today.
