RE: MB 300SD oldtimer - _siim_ - 07-22-2012
This kind of LSD does not work,I test it,one wheel on the asphalt and the other on the gravel,it took soooo long time to get away
It was same,Elbe system from Estonia

RE: MB 300SD oldtimer - sassparilla_kid - 07-28-2012
What is the whole purpose of the LSD differential? I'm confused
Never mind I got it, limited slip
RE: MB 300SD oldtimer - 300SD_KY - 08-11-2012
Making the old new again. Love this build.

I had no problems with Elbe LSD kit, worked as promised, maybe you installed it wrong
Too little clamping force

this thread is spectacular, wow what an impressive automobile, the quality of work is just staggering
i'm so lost with all that incredible work, jesus. just wow.

(01-04-2010, 03:59 PM)JTY Exhaust manifold done by KKDMotorsport
Turbo and manifold installed, looks much better than the original mini turbo
Around April 2009 it was time for first start.
Everything worked okay and the engine started nicely.
Video at youtube
I had some other projects whole summer and the 300SD was standing in garage.
But around December 2009 I decided it was time to re-start the project.
Everything else was ready, only intake manifold was missing, so it was time to start build and custom intake. I had in mind to use original turbo intake but noticed quite quickly that it was bad idea
So i started from scratch:
New intake fits nicely with new exhaust manifold:
As the turbo was without wastegate I installed and external wastgate:
Here are the latest shots from last weekend, made some thermal wrapping around manifold and few finishing touches:
Engine works nicely with boost, needs few things before going to dyno.
Also going to install my latest version of supermeter:

Very cool stuff indeed! With your supermeter, do you monitor TPC? Can you give a little info on your sensors like where you are mounting them and what kind you are using?
RE: MB 300SD oldtimer - Simpler=Better - 10-24-2012
Beautiful!
Did you bore out the ports on the head?
How much was that amazing exhaust manifold?

Yes the heads was ported pretty extensive also valves was changed and modified.
Custom exhaust for OM617A is around 500-600euros at KKD
Mine was first one made for OM617 so it's the prototype

Thanks
TPC stands for what
I'm using custom sensors that are built myself, i use special
industry grade extra fast temperature sensors, same with pressure and exhaust. IAT is mounted after cooler before manifold inlet, EGT/EXP is mounted right before turbo, OILT is before oil cooler and TRANST is before trans cooler.
RE: MB 300SD oldtimer - Simpler=Better - 11-07-2012
Would you be kind enough to share any photos/ details of the head work you did? I went easy on my head, the cutaway diagrams I've seen show really thin walls in the head.

(06-13-2010, 04:56 AM)JTY Some update, I installed a LSD unit in the diff
Few shots of the LSD unit:
Empty diff case
Looks good
Middle shaft seems to be in good shape
Spiders are pretty bad :roll:
LSD unit installed
Gear ratio
It's no much more fun to drive and it's very stable when you do an fast launch.

does this LSD unit fitt in all w126 differentails??
i would like to get one and to know where you got it from.
peter
i found it already

Yes it fits all, you can get seperate units for 124 etc.

Okay i will try to find the pics from the port job. Should be somewhere on my backup drive
In my head there was plenty of space to make the channels bigger, original channels are very small with tight curves

You have a US speedometer! I want one that goes that high!

Yes it's a 300SD and it was only sold in US
Get the higher speedometer from some old 300SD.
RE: MB 300SD oldtimer - kmaser - 03-09-2013
For the oil supply to the turbo are you feeding it full engine oil pressure or is the stock 2mm restrictor hole still in the system. I had an MP R444-2 and without the restricted it forced oil past the seals turbine and compressor side, I have some other issues to sort out as well but I need a new turbo as a result and want to go bigger than I had with my (6.5mm elements) I think the stock exh. Manifold is too restrictive, I don't see yours on the kkd website so do you know if its available still?

Yes it's done with full engine oil pressue, with custom steel braided hose and AN connectors to get maximum oil flow. Had no issues with the seals and this hose set was done & approved by Master Power expert/imported Anton Murola from hevosvoima.com
Maybe you had some other issues with the system, like really restricted oil return as that's going to cause seal problems if pressure side flows too much. I made oil return of big copper pipe to have as little as possible restriction on return side (this was also consulted with Anton)
My KKD manifold was first of it's kind a prototype manifold, you should ask Kalle to build one for you as he should still have the jigs for it.

I sold it to an friend, still rocking
Have since moved to E85 cars, no diesels anymore in our family

(05-18-2017, 01:50 PM)winmutt How's the LSD holding up?
It did'nt hold for long, I needed to change even stiffer springs and after that
I got the grip I wanted. No serious problems after that, just need to use quality
oil in the diff ( I use MAG1 85W-140 diff oil)
