5 Lug/BBK Kits

[Bmwmotorm52]

My kit

[Djmack]

I am glad everyone is getting their kits successfully! The internet is pretty great when we work together.

In another note of good news, these kits are going to be for sale permanently!! I will be offering a version of the kit to those on the forum! I am going to refine the kit a bit further and was hoping to get the opinion of those who participated in the group buy. What would you guys like to see in the kits going forward?

I was thinking:

Labeling machined parts (Number/Description)
Definitive needed parts lists
Picture installation instructions
Configuration options for different wheel sizes
Sample new wheel fitment possibilities

I would like to make this kit easier to understand and simply installed. I could also source parts for people and offer a full kit if someone wants to go that route.

If anyone is interested in another kit feel free to PM me!

I think this would be great idea and a fantastic selling strategy would be required parts list, instructions and of coarse, some 5 lug wheel/bbk porn(example pictures).

What ever time it took for these to get to yall, tack on 2 weeks on my shipping time.

So only the front gets pushed out 12mm

Correct!

Does this kit change the original offset of the suspension and by how much if it does

The suspension stays the same so that geometry is untouched! The front wheel bearing from an E36 is 12mm wider than stock, so it is similar to having a spacer. The rear uses an E30M3 drive flange and wheel bearing that stays at the stock width.

Got my kit. Just waiting on the rear hubs to come. I will post pictures on my build thread when I get it installed.

I received mine today. Nicely packaged and top notch quality.

I was supposed to get mine today but wasn't present to sign for it. damn USPS and their shit.

Reading previous thread's I've read that the rear E46 M3 rotor is too far inboard on the E30 M3 hub and touches the caliper bracket. I've also read that the Z4 hub is 2.5mm more outboard than the E30. So I'm wondering if Z4 hub + E46 M3 brakes would work? Either way, that's the route I will probably go on my car.

Someone else should try it first so I know how much machining I'll need to do :D

I got mine today, very nice packaging and quality work. :D

Got my kit! Hats off to elcoy for organizing this group buy and Nasieg for making it!

Also scored some 528i rear calipers today at pick-n-pull. Time to start stockpiling parts!

Nice! We're in the same area so I'm guessing mine will show up on Monday. Here are the parts I have so far:

E39 540i rear calipers (have new pistons and rebuild kits as well)
E36 M3 front calipers (have new pistons and rebuild kits as well)
Plan to use front E30 stainless lines for rear calipers

Still need a few things like front lines, rotors all around, hubs and bearings, etc

ALSO need a set of wheels!!!

Who's going to make ABS rings for the E28 hub?
