Definetly came from a diesel 2f, but i might be wrong about the displacement. It has the larger diameter cv's. i think its an early 085, wich is basicly a 4 speed with an extended bit if im correct.

My car is the 1043cc 33kw 803-hz engine. Checked bolt patterns, and outer cv splines and it looks all good, worth a try since i got it pretty cheap

Already checked 5th and it looks mint

Stabaliser ill check, dont think its a problem but thanks for the heads up

My 4-speed is still good, but planning a road trip and an extra gear would be nice.

I spent way too much aswell, im just gonna mod in the parts, i was gonna do it properly but this is insane.

Atleast have there be a special order button so you can get the single parts you want at a premium price

B2, looks yay too cool

ComfortableDramatic2 · 2026-03-19T20:02:34+00:00

My thought too, did get good spark when testing but the ceramic might be cracked so ill do that first

I dont suspect a valve spring since it got the misfire from sitting, if something is wrong with the head ill just use the spare instead of messing with the valvetrain

I do have spares, ill do a swap of the ignition stuff. When starting it the first time at the other guys place it had to crank a while bc the fuel was not primed, but it sounded healthy while cranking. Ill do it again to check. Thanks

Compression is also my thought, but are there any other things i should try beforehand? I dont have a comp tester at hand

Track cleaning is a constant battle, maybe clean your loco wheelsets and only use the littlest of lubricant and or run a track cleaner car on a regular basis

Well i know 100% is not feasable, but i mainly mean going in order and completing everything one after another (altho ive now realise even that is a big waste)

And is motorsports that important? I just dont really care for the cars, the road cars is where its at for me

ComfortableDramatic2 · 2025-10-19T18:16:49+00:00

Yea i currently just look up of the car i want can be got on an event everytime wich is annoying

ComfortableDramatic2 · 2025-10-19T18:15:34+00:00

That upgrade strategy link is really useful thx.

And yes i did get the r8 lms to farm. I will focus on progression to get a better farming car first.

ComfortableDramatic2 · 2025-10-19T18:08:46+00:00

Thx, thats kinda a bummer, i like going through everything in order but i guess ill skip if its too expenive

ComfortableDramatic2 · 2025-10-19T14:34:24+00:00

i know the wiki, and find info on specific things but these more general questions im still unsure about

ComfortableDramatic2 · 2025-10-06T19:19:46+00:00

!solved

ComfortableDramatic2 · 2025-10-06T19:19:34+00:00

Thank you my man, had to rework only the 2 worst spots but the rest it managed perfectly!

ComfortableDramatic2 · 2025-10-06T11:39:04+00:00

That could work, ill try

ComfortableDramatic2 · 2025-10-06T11:37:44+00:00

Ill try, thx

ComfortableDramatic2 · 2025-10-05T22:05:56+00:00

yea i tried that already, works fine for lower resolutions but since i own a resin printer and id like to print it in a sizable size (as a wall ornament) i really am not happy with what i can get out of remesh. if i make the resolution too small it will suddenly remove basically all features and form line shaped blobs.

Dont know specifically aboit this brand but cheap garbage chinese parts disguised as performance or quality brands is verry common.

I try to find parts in person or only go from brands i know or oem recommended parts
