I have the same issue with PS fluid in my van on track.

so before the track day, I suck out some fluid and run it on minimum. This gives enough space for it to expand and not piss out everywhere.

Looks class, i bet its great fun, my old Kangoo used to handle great. Pas wise, as @Daniel said above run the pas fluid on the minimum marker and your issues will be sorted.

The PAS fluid always overflows on M3’s on track so the common fix is a cheap bike brake fluid reservoir to give some extra room for expansion, can see mine on the left of the bay. Cost about £7 so might be worth a try?

The stock reservoir already has a vent hole in the cap so the 90deg fitting pushes straight into there, it just sprays a fine mist across the engine bay on track previously but obviously didn’t want to block it off completely.

I’ve kept extra length of the rubber hose so I can unscrew the cap if needed, then there’s an existing bolt next to the wing that I’ve fixed the reservoir to. Really common fix on M3s.

@Ben perry - any recommendations for someone to do a head gasket on an 850R??

headgasket, belts, water pump, renew the breather system etc.

I would love a Ph1 flamer! Good job on the seat repair too! Need to get mine if to be sorted
Cheers mate yeh I should have got the whole base (alcantara) bit done as there is a very slight color difference from fade but she matched bolster well 👍

Who did your 850 gaitor chap? Mines leather and is shagged/the base is cracked. Would like suede to match the armrest etc and that looks tidy!

All my other manuals have broken bases they are brital and shite now!! And That’s always an awkward question 😂😂 I had my center consol out and had a a nice fitting spanner under knob and a pair of mole grips on the stick and try leaver between the two I think was the most successful way I found! it wasnt an easy knob removal I must say 😂😂

Sooo update…
I fancy a mix up I dunno if people will be excited or not but after seeing @Chambers_RS project and driving my brothers integra and CTR it feel like the van need a k20!! So I sold the engine and box and bought a k20 engine box and shafts will be making most of the bits to convert so bare with..
I’m hoping to get to around 230+ Bhp gunner do standard bolt on mods like intake manifold Zorst mani blah blah also gunner put a new Honda chain and tensioner light flywheel and a lsd so yeh a few pics of how it currently sits nothing to excite yet
Cheers again

A little bit of a boring update..
bought a lot of parts nearly everything I need!!
Got a new genuine chain and tensioner
Billet flywheel with oem clutch
Weld in sump baffel
Rbc Un modified inlet with thermal gasket
Hybrid racing universal loom
Lots of other bits
So made start on engine stripped down and fitted chain and tensioner guides were mint as was oil pump chain but the cam chain was stretched to F and the tensioner had failed.
Also tigged the baffles in sump I’m learning to tig don’t judge!!! 😂😂
And all sealed up with Honda bond hopefully lsd next week and I’ll have a bash at fitting that !!
Cheers again
