Xjan's 1M "frankenstein" project

xjan · 06-01-2016, 07:16 AM

slowly, but steadily... last few tweaks, last few weeks...

E82IsTheWay! · 06-02-2016, 10:59 PM

did you swap everything over from the 1m to this car, like all the wires from that car (1m) or were you able to use some from the new car?

xjan · 06-04-2016, 10:48 AM

I initially thought I might be able to keep some parts from the donor, but ended up swapping over everything as the spec list was quite different on those cars still. The 120D did not have navigation, DSP Hifi, xenons, LED tails, climate control, CAS etc.

do you think the same can be done with a m3? Swap every single possible thing over?

It's come a long ways since the last time I checked in here! Very cool!

xjan · 07-04-2016, 02:15 PM

Some aerodynamic improvements + brake ducts are in the works...
Pretty low, I wonder if it is driveble

Matticus91 · 07-06-2016, 11:19 AM

Does that duct clear the ground?????

xjan · 07-06-2016, 01:15 PM

no, that photo is just to show how the splitter merges with the undershield

. The duct there is "in progress"

Got it

xjan · 09-12-2016, 03:36 AM

cornerbalancing, 1575 kg with me and 1/2 tank of fuel, 52%-48% F-R
Will have to go and test some more on that track, but currently set cambers -2.8 front and -2 rear, have a bit more room and judging from tyre temps, this is needed...

xjan · 02-01-2017, 09:20 AM

Not much to update. I have finally managed to beat the bureacracy and the 120D is now registered with 1M engine and drivetrain etc

.

Also received a few photos of the car at the first track session with it from august 2016.

Here they are (click photo for more):

Matticus91 · 05-16-2017, 11:45 AM

xjan · 05-24-2017, 02:38 PM
