They are still very limited in number, but the main power lies in them.

Because the battery is at the very back and the BMW heart has a very significant dose of compression, we can miss any kind of voltage drop over the cable like the plague.

Hence the overgrown 50mm2 cables that we have safely steered through the back wall and bulkhead in our own way.

In order for the “big” cables not to be secured, we have paid some attention to this. Armed with a bar OF POM and a copper threaded rod, Luc has made custom made penetrations. Safety first !!

Now we only have to find suitable rubber covers to insulate the nuts.

Because we are not really wild about all the “non-BMW origin” crankshaft pulleys that are sold here and there, we also had to make some adjustments for this. What worried us most was the fact that these pulleys are always made without a damper. Even though the S14 crankshaft is fairly sturdy in origin, this did not give a good feeling.

As mentioned before, we weren’t really blown away by the original Sadev shift mechanism. The shifter itself is okay, but the suspension bracket is not a high flyer in terms of design and aesthetics.

Since we still have to weld quite a few supports and other attributes to the bottom of the bodywork, we decided to make a new spit. This time we have thought about it much better so that the whole 1 is much firmer, 2 is on wheels and 3 is demountable and much better to store than our ill-considered first version.

Normally, it should now also be able to run smoothly with little effort. Hopefully we can confirm this shortly 🙂

Now we are going to think about additional supports so that the whole is universally usable, then finish with a color and then we can get back to work.

Few words this time, just a few snapshots of the unfinished reinforcements on front and swingarm.
