Cannockwolf Posted October 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 It is very simple idea that seems to work well http://www.e46zone.com/forum/topic/48274-e46-boot-auto-open/ Scottfreee3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannockwolf Posted October 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 used it in anger for the first time today, hands full of carrier bags and worked a treat also figured out that the bungs unscrew not just twist out, turned it 10 times and they dropped out, but of an misunderstanding there.

RickyZ Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Would it work well on a heavier normal boot do you think ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannockwolf Posted October 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 (edited) the csl may be lighter overall but that big over hang makes it heavier to lift so i reckon yes it probably would, theres loads of info in that other thread, i think theres some issues if your gas struts are a bit knackered too but its all in there Edited October 6, 2013 by Cannockwolf RickyZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonlpearce Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Awesome work as ever! Wonder who has the fastest 330 in the UK? Yours has to be one of only a few that has had this level of work doing. I still think you should have had multiple dyno runs though to see exactly how much gain you have gotten from individual mods. Be interesting to see which gave the most bang for the buck. Cannockwolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannockwolf Posted October 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Theres 2 or three on this forum, at least ones got a stage 3 too, but with the mods coming next year im hoping to turn this into something special I do agree, but its work atm thats the problem, ive been staying here to 9pm to keep up with jobs (everything os always needed urgently lol) and they will only do it mon-fri 9-5 so its impossible, December will be easier though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitz2282 Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 How you getting along with the m3 EVO exhaust manifold, does it require a lot of work to fit or is it quite straight forward ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannockwolf Posted October 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Basically whats happening is they are getting a new flange laser cut from oem gaskets, then cutting off the old flange from the evo headers and re-welding them on the new, then its just a case of getting the other end to meet up with the old exhaust, the chap seems to think its pretty straight forward but it will take all day to do, Im using AA Silencers in Stafford Rebel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannockwolf Posted October 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) ive ordered an M3 vert front ARB on ebay been looking at the convertible non-M3 rear arbs but i'm a little confused. Is it just the sports package that is the 20mm bar? i can find 3 different sizes on realoem, if i get one from a 320-330c sport vert is that the one i'm after? EDIT: got the size wrong Edited October 20, 2013 by Cannockwolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriggerFish Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 21mm? They're 20mm off a non-M at the biggest I think. 20mm seems to be on the 330 verts. That's what I got anyway, paid £10 off eBay. Seemed to make a bit of a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannockwolf Posted October 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) yes 20mm looking at figures so long made me numeral blind lol its not clear but 20mm is listed as an option on 320 upwards, £10 thats a bargain, not many available but im putting some feelers out with people breaking im getting addicted to how the HSD Monos are handling, this and a couple of things planned next year should take it to another level while still keeping it a comfortable drive Edited October 20, 2013 by Cannockwolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriggerFish Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Hmmm, I didn't know that. I found one listed as a 330ci, so I asked if he'd measure it up and it happened to be 20mm. Winning! Doesn't impact ride comfort either to answer your question on another thread. I've get to drive my HSDs in anger, but they feel like they should be very impressive once tracked up properly.

Cannockwolf Posted October 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 on real oem they are listed as an option, anyhoo even though its coming off a 330 ill get him to measure them too before i pay anything, cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuidoK Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 (edited) the Schrick cams are in and im just waiting on delivery of those. Be sure that your supplier is packing the cams carefully. The shop where I bought them from thought that the standard schrick cartboard sleeve would be sufficient for the parcel service..... ...obviously not.... (I got a new one though for free so they handled things good (and they learned that cams are brittle ) Are you really planning a TS3 upgrade in the future? That's an expensive one (not only the kit, but also the work on the head) Edited October 21, 2013 by GuidoK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannockwolf Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Wow! Luckily I know them well and they are hand delivering them to me as they are local, ts3 is something long in the future, if at all, it will be a hobby project when this is my second car.
