    • Rear caliber fittings...

      Original rear brakecaliper centerline for disc is about 22mm

      W210 "big motor" caliper is 26.75mm centerline

      And the bolts that hold the caliper on W201 is M10 and W210 M12.. so adapter had to be made..

      Start of by making 4 of these.


      Then holes..


      And then press them to calipers.



      Boom, and adapters done.

                      Thanks, might take some time to get finished.

                          • Umm.. today i got something you guys may like..

                            first i got some parts for brakes..


                            then i tested a new tool that ive had for sometime..

                            After couple of tries i think its quite ok


                            Then followed by that, first brakeline ever bent.. id say it came out pretty ok.




                            and after while couple more appeared.



                            Not quite ready yet, im not 100% sure of how i will run the lines. but so far so good. maybe couple tweaks here and there and should be pretty ok.

                            oh yea and next up i just got email about my upcoming instruments.. This will be mounted inside stock instrumentcluster, where stock rev counter would be..

                            Very simple and on my eye, will go ok with the "80's & 90's" look that i want.

                            Screen 1(default)

                            Screen 2-EGT

                            Screen 3-Temp

                            Screen 4-Pressure


                            All that data is coming straight from ECU, using CAN. so temps are refreshed 10times / second, lambda and things like that 30times / second

                            • I like the display. Are you doing the coding for it or the ecu does?

                                Well its CAN-BUS so, the display has 'flags' to pickup from CAN-bus stream that ecu gives out. pretty much same techology that new cars use on all instrument cluster.

                                This means no double sensors on engine and so on. so information ecu gets i can use on the monitor.

                                but answer to your question, im not doing the coding. either on ecu or the display.
