Discussion about issues encountered whilst converting to M3 Flash and GWS

[aus335iguy]

Need someone with M3 or 1M DSC to validate this
In the CIC there’s a product line or PL setting

@TireDeathRacing found that you could disable DSC completely from the CIC when you changed the pl setting to the Z4 one.
tbe z4 DSC has a sport + traction mode similar to MDM
It COULD activate MDM if we’re lucky

Here’s the post... set CIC to PL5

Discussion about issues encountered whilst converting to M3 Flash and GWS

I can get the info to anyone that wants to swap a 2.81 into their M3 diff. Just ask Terry what driving around on a 3.15 is like.

So would anybody be interested in hearing about an F80 DSG gearbox behind an M57 with 3.15 final drive in an E36 chassis no less

Project: E36 Compact with M57N & DCT

First of all, i was a little unsure in which category to post this, so moderators, be free to move to a better suiting category if you feel like it. Some background.... I've been building a E36 Coupe with M50 turbo for years now, and the last big upgrade/modification i did on it, was putting in...

No luck. Could not boost over 38psi.. wg is not good

 

[Begood69]

I increased WG to 1.0 bar vs the 0.9 bar i had on. That should get me to 43psi. But i am also getting a new 4 ports MAC see if the MAC is the issue. To be continued...

Sorry you are going through this, just a funny line up of posts. Things break and it sucks ass. I'm trying my best not to push my car too far cause I am lacking skills to fix a problem like yours!

You said you contacted MFactory? Are they gonna help replace, or what is next steps?

Cool! I hope they can work with ya and not have to ship the entire thing back first.


Alright! That's 1.5 hours away (used to work in Ft Walton). Lots of good food and such around there. No clue what is open since COVID as I switched jobs... but would be cool to meet up! I'd love to see that beast of a car.

Keep us posted on what happens!

To add to the puzzle. People retrofitting servotronic on non servotronic cars are using 1M JBBFs to make it work

 

[Begood69]

Got the car running. Just need to do relearning and finish reinstalling the parts. Then i will run low boost 28 ish unyil i can affort the upgraded setup

 

[aus335iguy]

I can’t believe Your car doesn’t get more attention
I think it really needs its own thread ...
cmon man that thing has it ALL and makes a lot of other efforts seem half hearted. What was the last dyno pull again ?

 

[Begood69]

All r pretty constant and none of the steals have any signs of heat at all.

No more $205 replaced by $2MK and $2MD.
Dme (1km0s), CIC, m3 kombi, dct (gts 0042 ) coded.
I am using protools. Tried m3 dsc but when trying to calibrate with m3 szl fails. Also m3 gws does not show in my modules. So not coded yet.
Should i suse ncsexpert? Also m3 dsc is C8F version. And some of the coding is not the same i find online so i assume i should do same ish in the c8f version. If similar option.

The wipers r on all the time for now and the water pump seems to b always running too.

Thx for the help.

Ps: any answer on the m3 speed sensors? Do i have to swap mu sensor to the m3 type? Or do i have to repin them to other places?

Ps2: i did swap my multi button for the m3 with M could that b what szl had issues calibrating. Paddle shifters work.

Hello, how did you sort out the water pump issue?
