RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 04-11-2011
After a test drive with a wideband lambda, i tuned the wastegate to 1.1bar. At 1.1 bar the AFR is perfect. The car is pretty strong, i wonder how it would run with 200-250more hps
RE: My 83 300D - larsalan - 04-25-2011
Can we get some audio/video? I wanna hear that screamer pipe.
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 05-11-2011
Sorry larsalan, didnt get the chance to make a video/audio before the cops stopped me. I had to weld the screamer into the downpipe
The cars runs still pretty good, but the 722.4 tranny screams like hell!
my spare IP are on its way to FINLAND
And new internals for a 722.3 are on the way, the internals is stock but will mount more clutches than stock. Also higher oil pressure.
I also have changed upper control arm front, and both wheel bearings in the rear.
Ordered intercoooler today.
Will update more when i get more parts.
Got a little crappy video if somebody wants to se it

Bought H&R 50mm lowering springs today. But im not sure what kind of shocks i should buy?
Is there some shorter and stiffer shocks that will bolt right on or with little mods?

SPAAX makes a kit but is pricey. Your best bet for the buck is the HD bilsteins.

I'm not on my computer atm, but I've been quoted a price for both standard lenght SPAX shocks (standard spax is 2.5cm shorter than the original mercedes shocks), and shortened SPAX shocks (They have to custom make the shortened ones, which they have never done to W123 shocks before). The price wasn't too bad.
If you send me a PM, I'll reply whenever I'm on my computer and can check the prices. The shortened ones did cost a little more, but they will NEVER bottom out... Ever.

RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 06-18-2011
update!
Receive the ip next week
have ordered more thinner steel plates to k1 and k2 clutch in the transmisson. Den i can fitt all 6 semisinter clutches
it has 4 organic stock.. The rear brake band i got was in Kevlar so i think the transmission is gonna work fine after what i have seen a stock tranny can handle ..
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 06-25-2011
ip innstalled. Every things works great

RE: My 83 300D - Imaginos - 06-26-2011
3 bar boost in plans? SICK!
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 06-26-2011
i guess around 3bar would be about perfect
More videos will come when i get the new tranny innstalled, the 722.4 lost the 4th gear today
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 06-27-2011
with the crappy transmission i am running 1.7bar, and it works pretty great. Except have to change gears manualy and lift the foot of the pedal for it to change gear
its nice when i hit boost in second gear and the wheels starts spinning
RE: My 83 300D - winmutt - 06-27-2011
Nice. What about EGT?
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 06-27-2011
im not sure what the egt is. But i managed to take a look at it one time and i think its was 1350f. But its pretty high because i have so low boost right now, the ip is set to the lowest fuel delivery but it still throws out blacksmoke.
RE: My 83 300D - winmutt - 06-27-2011
OOF 1350 is too high.
RE: My 83 300D - led-panzer - 06-27-2011
Eh, if its short bursts.
Is the probe pre or post turbo? Love this project by the way, I think the next one I get I'm doing it exactly like this
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 06-27-2011
i know the egt is high. but its only on short bursts. the probe is mounted in the header before the turbo.
RE: My 83 300D - dieselboy - 06-27-2011

just a little video where you can here the transmission shifting. but i only running 1.5 1.6 bar boost. But it shifts the same at 2.5bar
thinking on turing the vacum mod and the side of the tranny, how much psi is one turn?
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 07-08-2011
Mounted the H&R springs today, and wow what a diffrence. the ride height was about the same as it was before.

Do you have specs for the springs? Length, number of coils and force?
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 07-09-2011
h&r 50mm, reinforced. The coils was 2mm thicker
ride is sweet now. only need to custom fit some new shocks now here is a little test
