Modified hydroboost. I cut the stock eyelet off the BMW booster and welded it to the hydroboost. Its a bit ugly... but it actually works really well. For those that are wondering of the hydroboost conversion is worth it- YES! The car stops so well its amazing!

I used a mustang shifter handle, 03/04 cobra shifter ****- 6 speed shift pattern is a must!

E46 M3 drivers seat installed. It sits significantly lower than the E36 seat did... good info for you really tall guys. Mine are power, so I can adjust the Height, back, bolsters, etc. Well worth the upgrade!

Looking really good man! I think the G8 covers look great on the engine too. The pics give me encouragement to finish mine up!

Not a fan of blue, but . . .nice!!! Make me hornY!!

Seriously, nice work. I like the G8 clamshell. Factory gauges work? What did you do for exhaust?

Between the 2 covers, G8 looks better to me.

I went with no engine cover

It came out well. I built a bracket that I welded to the frame rail. Steering feels just like stock.

Yes all factory gauges work. The information center is a different story... I did 2.5" out of the headers and ran them to a single 3" y-pipe. The muffler is a magnaflow & I ran a single high flow cat. Its way too loud.... but it sounds mean as hell!

Ok gents, I know there is a specific section for "KILLS" but I have to brag a little!

On the way home from work there was an Mercedes E55 AMG racing a Mitsubish EVO. The EVO lost, I decided to get stupid. We went from about 65 mph. I stayed on him up to about 90 in 5th and decided 4th was more appropriate. I caught him at 100, passed him at 110, and put about 6-8 cars between us at 140. I was laughing my *** off wondering what was going through his head!

After looking at this closer, the G8 cover doesn't let the hood close. It is just a little too tall!

unnatrl,

I work over at Acura of Reno. One day I was outside and I heard a V8 coming down S. Virgina. I was thinking it was a Z06 or something and it was one of the strangest things I've seen, your car. I googled it and found this site. You have to bring your car by sometime so I can take a peek. I have an E36 Euro Spec M3 I imported years ago which I stripped and making way for an LS7. Would love to see your car.

Regards,
Chris

I will definitely bring it by. My buddy works across the street at Bill Pearce and keeps bugging me to bring it in & complain the exhaust seems too loud... I'm guessing it may get a few weird looks

Looking really good man! Love the kill story!

Hey, could you post up some pictures of how your steering shaft turned out? I have a good idea of how I'm going to do mine, but it's always good to see other people did it. Also, maybe I missed it, but I didn't see any part numbers for the headers you are using. I was looking at the Sanderson's and wanted to compare them with yours. Thanks

I used the hooker block hugger headers. There are only 2 part #'s, one for coated and one for non coated. I dont have the part # off the top of my head...

I will get some pics of the steering shaft.

How's she running?

I love it.
Would love to know more about your hydroboost, headers, and steering shaft setup.
Looks great, I'm drooling.
