Spun a bearing on my s14 in September last year.
finally opened it up after Xmas to find the cause was most likely oil starvation = failed oil pump. Damage is minimal.
So one thing has led to another and now I'm planning a 2.5 Stroker Kit with the bells and whistles.
it's originally a 2.3 late model 215hp engine with 156k miles. Previously rebuilt in 2014 by a workshop I won't name. Poor workmanship is all I can say.
Car has had a nut and bolt restoration using every new part where possible. Recycling only parts that are NLA. Uprating everything possible along the way
(ENGINE/RUNNING GEARS /INTERIOR NOT INCLUDED)
Ultimately it's a street car I intend cherish forever and hand down one day to a loved one. So budget has not played a part in this parts list. Moreover reliability/sound/preventative measure/ usable power has taken priority.
So far here is my parts list.
Schrick Cams 284 276
Oem 2.5L Evo3 Crankshaft
94.5mm JE Pistons
Arrow connecting Rods
Compression Ratio 11.5.1

VAC Oil pump upgrade/fix kit
VAC S14 Megasump with Baffle
Paper oil pan gaskets (upper/lower)
VAC crank Trigger 60-2
VAC+ Multi Layer Steel Headgasket (thickness to be established)
VAC Heavy Duty Alternator Bushings
VAC Throttle position kit
Sensors-
E30 M3 S14 wideband o2 sensor
S14 fast reacting intake sensor
Fuel pressure sensor
Fuel temp sensor
Oil pressure sensor
Oil temp sensor
EGT sensor 8mm or 7mm
ECU - LINK OR SYVECS
Carbon airbox DTM - Markus
Weicher 39.5" fake carbon strut brace
Fuel rail adapter for fuel pressure regulator AN6
CSF Oil cooler kit + sandwich plate/ black hoses
Vibra technics engine mount
oem bmw s14 oil pump
Oem bmw groupN transmission mount # 23711417246KT
OEM crank damper
Schrick Valves
Schrick Springs
E36 M3 oem Cam Followers
New ignition wiring oem
All round ARP bolts Main/head/flywheel
I have sent my getrag 265 gearbox and 3.25 diff to Neil at Allgears in Worksop for a full rebuild using all new upgraded internals.
I did opt for the Turner motorsport shifter rebuild kit with polyurethane bush to fit over the rebuilt gearbox
Alongside this exhaustive parts list I am planning to send the cam covers for refinishing.
I have a full extended alcantara interior on order with Amxperformance since last year. This includes
alcantara trim dash
glove
Console
Footwell Speaker covers
recaro sr3 heated seats
door cards front and rear
mtech2 370mm steering wheel alcantara
I am in the process or procuring air conditioning parts for retrofit using a more modern system but implementing the oem heater matrix. (This part has me stuck. Will update as It progresses)
This has consumed me to say the very least.
I am not an engineer and have a very basic understanding of s14. I have the help of good friends and this forum.
I'm sure I've missed a load of things
For some reason I cannot upload pics
