Do you know the color of your paint? I bought a 2002 about 8 months ago and I’m convinced the previous owner saw your videos and decided to use the exact same color blue when he restored it. Maybe you mention it in a different video.

@spuriouspseudo Күн бұрын

@PocketsMcCloud I don't know... it was that colour when my cousin got it and I haven't found anything in the docs that came with the car. It's not a BMW colour, just some custom mix.

Would not just fitting original springs be easier. I’m just curious as to why you choose this option as it looks quite involved. What with making the spaces. I actually need to lower mine a little with original springs. I plan to just cut a coil off them.

@spuriouspseudo Ай бұрын

@simonmenzies3142 for me, these were the springs I had at the time... Plus, they ride better that stock and get the car to a good ride height -once you have the right spacers. Years on and I'm still happy with them. Compliant for the street, and decent on the track.

Thanks, Did you use abs calipers that just have the one port, and where did you source the insert for the caliper mounts?

I made the same upgrade, but it seems that the brake pump is not enough now, the pedal is long, almost to the end, after pumping the pedal it goes up and feels better, it is not from the bleeding process, I already do it and i have done it again, what could it be?

@spuriouspseudo 7 ай бұрын

I had the same problem... Mine's still not where I want it, but close. I had a helper pump hard 5 times before releasing the bleed screw. Went around several times and it helped a lot. I think the master being so low just makes it hard to get all of the air out.

Thanks for the tip on the abs calipers. I’ve been scouting the junk yard since I saw your video a while back and finally scored the right calipers. I have the single line system as I have an early 68 1600. Right now I’m running 320i fronts and rears (250mm drums) with a brake master from the 320i. So essentially 320i brake system tip to toe. It works well but I scored a set of 320i hubs on the cheap and I came across the calipers today so I might swap it for fun at some point. The 320i fronts are waaay bigger than the stock 1600 calipers already but if some is good more is better. Thanks again for the tip!

Good chance that your engine mounts and transmission mount are sagged ( worn). Take a look at those items first.

I’m doing this same deal. Firstly your vid’s are the most helpful because it’s about the care of these cars and not repurposing for muscle and mods. I’m original owner (dad bought in Germany). We did rebuilds x2. I got a question about something simple. You are very conservative with your lift points. Why do you place wood rails along the lift points rather than place the jack stands in the jack lift points? I have a very stiff 911 and I understand that it displaces the alternate stands and shifts and scares the s*** out of me. Thanks

@spuriouspseudo Жыл бұрын

I use the blocks because I'm unsure of the condition of the steel. Want to make sure that I get a good mount and not damage the rails. Especially since they could be compromised from rust. My jack points look a little rough... Someday I'll get it all restored. Be safe!

@kaplanmb Жыл бұрын

Good stuff! I did the same to my ‘73; I did the headlights too, and accidentally bought a light with a yellow low beam and white high beam. I’m keeping it for now, though. I also added a stealth led strip as a 3rd brake light. I worry about visibility, even with the LED lights. Thanks for posting!

Where’s the brake booster? Do you have an electric pump instead of from the vacuum line on the intake manifold?

@davidcassada1774 Жыл бұрын

I really admire this! My intake manifold has the rod towers built it from a Mikuni set up I was using. I’m going to Weber 40’s which work with the build. I like the aft support ROM that you designed and rod from the accelerator is rock solid. I would like to see how that feels in the foot. My last set up was a little sloppy. The cable system was a nightmare for me. Anyways, strong work!

@spuriouspseudo Жыл бұрын

The rod linkage is really nice. Has a really direct feel.. Mine is mostly returned by the pedal spring, really snappy - I'd recommend it over cables for sure.

Thanks for the video. My 73 turn signal indicator tells you when you have a failed bulb by blinking twice then going dark. Does the indicator work after the conversion, and does it tell you when s bulb is out?

@spuriouspseudo Жыл бұрын

This is interesting! Everything works fine, but ever since I put the electronic blinker in I get what I thought was phantom blinks (2 of them) on the indicator. This was even with the regular bulbs... I guess this is actually that feature telling that something is wrong. Cool to know. Maybe worth an FAQ post to see if that can be resolved. Like I say, everything is working great, proper blink cadence, but I do get those two extra blinks on the indicator; I thought it was just a glitch.
