    5mall5nail5 Turbo E34 Build Part IV!

    So I've been asked to start part IV, lol.

    Here's Part 1
    Here's Part 2
    Here's Part 3

    And now we're on Part 4.

    That said, next up we make a bronze bushing for the shift linkage junction. Here's the start of that. Made of 932 bearing grade bronze:

    If your M3 doesn’t have 3 pedals and 2 doors, I would really consider contacting BMW to confirm the authenticity of your incorrectly badged mid-sized family sedan.

    It takes me longer to change the fluids and filters than you take to swap turbo set ups.

    I used a canon 5D mark II w/ canon 100mm f/2.8L IS macro lens. For light I have a simple incandescent dish light on the tail stock of the lathe.

    Here is a video/part I made last night for AJD5:

    Finished up making the bronze bearing/bushing for my shift linkage and pressed it in. Worked out very nicely.

    Anxious to throw it on the car but I need to finish up Sneezy's calipers.

    Looks great. Your whole car will be very tight feeling now with all this new suspension/bushings and custom shifter stuff. Did you by chance finish the video process of it?

    Thanks Andrew no I didn't video I just wanted to knock it out. It was pretty basic just turning the outside and boring the inside then parting.

    Wow, cant believe already on 4. I remember Urine Machine's first thread. 4 threads, 2 forum names, and probably 100's of time outs over the years. You've upped your game a bit now. Turning your own bushings now? nice.

    BTW, is that any cheaper, or just for the experience? How much are one of those blanks?
