http://www.adamdaley.com/max/mr2/MidOhio/richdrive.wmv ^^direct link video from Sunday^^, session 3 of 4. File is about 280mb and it s 19mn long Mid-OH is pretty technical. the red civic hatch (a good friend of mine) in the beginning was smoking oil.........he forgot to put his oil cap on (lol) but his car was fine. In another session, at China Beach (turn 7 on the club course), he had an agricultural experience and dropped a nice patch of grass on the line at Madness (turn 8) The yellow mustang guy was pretty quick too any feedback on my driving style is much appreciated 1st time ever on track driving and I had massive amounts of fun. It'sd also great that I was with a coworker, her bf, a Polak from Pittsburgh, some other neighbors from cbus.... We had an awesome time camping (aside from the massive rain saturday afternoon. No video from my rain driving on Saturday but I loved it even more than driving in the dry. The car felt planted, perfectly neutral and the feedback in the wheel is very very welcome........... Helps that I had an instructor who knew the track AND drives the same exact car (color, interior color, lux.... only difference between our cars from the factory is VIN and model year). He graduated me to group 2 to my surprise but I think I ll hang back with instructed rides for the foreseeable future trackdays. This car is very very capable even with minimal performance (suspension) mods there was some kind of ITR lovefest (all were Champ White, my favorite white in the world) there too but I never got to play with them http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/NASA%20midohio%20Aug%2014-15/P1010011.jpg?t=1282423126 the red M3 is the ex-car of the NSX driver. http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/NASA%20midohio%20Aug%2014-15/P1010010.jpg?t=1282423127 http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/NASA%20midohio%20Aug%2014-15/P1010008.jpg?t=1282423128 http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/NASA%20midohio%20Aug%2014-15/P1010001.jpg?t=1282423143 http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/NASA%20midohio%20Aug%2014-15/P1010003.jpg?t=1282423141 http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/NASA%20midohio%20Aug%2014-15/P1010004.jpg?t=1282423146 http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/NASA%20midohio%20Aug%2014-15/P1010007.jpg?t=1282423148

mishimoto aluminum radiator and zionsville shroud installed

well, the parts held up great on track I m happy -
mishimoto aluminum radiator and zionsville shroud installed
Das Borgen replied to Das Borgen's topic in Passing Lane
well the aluminum tank (with the Stant cap) is designed to open at 28-32psi to vent the system.... only then does the aluminum overflow bottle vent out coolant...... the clear tube does NOT lead to an overflow bottle.... it s simply there to catch excess coolant when the system's pressure gets above 32psi Zionsville explained this to me the advantage of having aluminum expansion tank instead of the stock plastic expansion is material selection. ventually, due to LOTS and LOTS of heat cycling, the stock plastic tank will faill (it usually takes 80k miles or so these cars). Anything over 80k miles on a stock plastic endtank radiator and stock plastic expansion tank on an E36, and you're living on borrowed time until they start leaking coolant -

along with a Spal 16" puller fan Accumulated parts and wiring elements over a month and installed everything tonight. Took me 2hours actual work. had to rush out to the local hardware store for water (for my stomach) and some clear vinyl tube for my overlow bottle which ended up being the bottle of water I had drunk....sweet! bleeding was super easy. I've never had ANY problems bleeding on to photos old rad on left and new (mishimoto) rad on right http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/Arctic%20Silver%20E36%20M3/IMG00090-20100810-1611.jpg?t=1281485357 note that on the Mishimoto radiator, the top nipple and the top hose junction are so close together that it s a bear to get both on along with their hose clamps. http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/Arctic%20Silver%20E36%20M3/IMG00092-20100810-1650.jpg?t=1281485360 in the above and below photo, you can see the rectangular hole for the rubber holding pads are fairly bigger than the rubber pads. This has to potential to let the rad wiggle back and forth so just fill the hole with something to pad it up edit: I wrapped the rubber pads in about 10 layers of electrical tape and they fit snug in the hole now, just as snug as the rubber pad by itself in a stock (OEM) radiator..... no more wiggling around... This is important to not let the rad vibrate back and forth. MUST DO http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/Arctic%20Silver%20E36%20M3/IMG00091-20100810-1650.jpg?t=1281485802 relay and wiring hiding behind the + terminal box http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/Arctic%20Silver%20E36%20M3/IMG00094-20100810-1650.jpg?t=1281485362 finished http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/Arctic%20Silver%20E36%20M3/IMG00096-20100810-1937.jpg?t=1281485366 the shroud was riveted to the top and bottom U-channels of the radiator (5 dollars for a rivet gun with rivets from HB...wow) http://i571.photobucket.com/albums/ss160/das_borgen/Arctic%20Silver%20E36%20M3/IMG00069-20100805-1700.jpg?t=1281485966 took it out for a quick spin and my needle stayed in the same 12oclock spot. The radiator took a little bit more coolant than the stock one (about half liter to a full liter, not more) I wired the fan to come on full speed when the high temp on the coolant switch (88C) completes the circuit.... I tested it and it works beautifully (it turns on both the factory aux and Spal when I ground out the high temp wire of the switch). But the fan never turned on during my test drive.... The Mishimoto is a pretty nice rad for the money. But like I noted, the top driver side small nipple and coolant hose input neck are so close together it s annoying to slip their hoses on..... I'm ready for MidOhio this week end thanks for reading and comments are welcome
