Seems like trying to get an original ecu file and working from that is a good bet.

Which OZ do you refer to?

Drive shaft going in today with new Guibos as well as the correct bearing for the center support.

For info: the Center support bearing housing is fine - get it anywhere. The BEARING that goes in is sometimes wrong per posts here and elsewhere. Possibly because "AMG"

6006/32.

I got mine from France (123bearing - used them before) . Other parts houses were 8 weeks out.

Center support bearing seems like it wants to be lower than normal. New bushings through out. East coast engine mounts were a bit lower. Maybe thier trans mount is 10mm lower too? May need to shim that and shim the carrier housing to meet in the middle. Not a huge deal.



Eww dust. Need to blow that off.


Played around with the rear upper camber arms from Megan racing. Heavy and crude but they work. Properly adjustable but improperly drilled for the bigger e55 bolts

And these things will be hung up on the wall as another "aftermarket monkeys" example of people that should be flipping burgers and no where near engineering.

all of these aftermarket arms are garbage and do not work in the same orientation as the OEM designed arm which cannot be made generic. Megan Racing and the Malaysian sourced arms as you've seen are closer to OEM, but only work for non-airmatic as the would run into the airbags

Okay arms are in and new bolts as those 12 points are sometimes finicky.

Does anyone have info on the dual sided fuel level sensor schematic and resistance values?

Passenger side will have upgraded pumps and normal hat. Drivers side will be aluminum hat with supply and return holes. Need to recreate the two plugs on the original sendor piece and probably graft on the level sender assembly for the left side (driver)

Car already set up for return system. This is the last big hurdle to getting the car running.

Additional to the 6 pins that seem to be the two wires from each level sensor reostat + one tire that seems to go to ground points on the sender basket -

There is the three pins for the "Tank Pressure Sensor"

Has anyone spoofed this? This is an emissions control unless they were concerned about tank pressure otherwise, however the vent in the center I think is part of the evap system with a charcoal cannister in the back passenger well.

Reason:

Just putting pump and stock top hat on passenger side, routing two pumps (One way valve needed if they come on separately or if I make them do so) to driver side for entry and exit, Have aluminum hat for that - just need to proper wire tank level and spoof tank pressure.

Love seeing the quality of your work! I know of another 928 "enthusiast" from Irvine. Guess those get in your blood, just like these cars do! Anyway, awesome work, and I will be sure to keep watching this thread unfold, now!
When I owned a 928GTS I used a company called ANDIAL and also 928 International,
