i dont know how your clutch line is setup, but if stock bmw shit is used get rid of the clutch delay valve. i can see that being a pita w/ this setup.
Car’s in the garage. Swing by. I’ve been busy being baller in a BMW :stick:
Almost positive the CDV is gone, but I’ll check anyways.
Thanks, Tod 
I swear I don’t go looking for it. I was looking at C5 Vettes, then S2000’s for a little while, and then I saw this thing for sale and thought
I’ve been busy building real powAH!!!
Come spring, it’s on!
(Winter bench racing FTW!)

Found the fucking oil leak -
Sort of a shitty angle with a shittier camera phone, but one of the half-moon’s on the back side of the valve cover gasket is all chewed up somehow. Ordered a new one through Pittsburgh East Nissan.
lol wat
Refreshing the SR20?

Please tell me you’re shoerhorning an LS1 in there.
about time you get it ready for the talan swap
I see a lsx in your future.
been waiting to see you finally do it, if you need any help feel free to ask me. Our cars share the same platform.
Nah, I had something else laying around so I figured I’d chuck it in this thing -
(Shaky pic because I have the hand steadiness of a crackhead and didn’t realize my anti-shake feature wasn’t on)
Is that a monster clutch I see?
Talk about fitting 15lbs of shit into a 5lbs bag.
Wow, the Hyundai guy calling a LSX “15lbs of shit.” Riiiiiiiiiight.
That will be absolutely awesome. I’ve seen some LSX E36s and they came out really nice, I believe the Z3 engine bay is largely the same as a E36. Hell, if you could make it work in a Miata this should be cake. G’luck!

TJ, I meant nothing rude in regards to his post, just looks like it will be a tight fit, so crawl out of my ass now, mmkay.
But it’s so roomy in here… somebody (or a lot of somebodies) really opened this thing up, a lot of “expansion” done indeed.
Anyway, yet another great project Jesse. Keep us posted!
-TJ
The Z3 has the same front sub frame as an e36, this swap has been done quite a few times so there isnt really a question of if it can be done.
when in doubt…
…LSX it.
