Hey Rob i'm gonna start callin you sweet pants...thats a nice cabby you got there sugar tits!!

But no seriously amazing progress you got goin there. Keep that shit up son!!!

Bahahahahahaha

thank you thank you thank you fellas!

i present to you! all the effing wires!



look at my sad car in the background :(

what a bitch and a half to remove! these wires probably wont be going back into the car until it comes back from paint as i have a lot of cleaning up to do with them!

Oh man, what progress. So you're going to run E30 M3 suspension with 17x8.5" ET13 wheels? How much wider are you going to go? what size tires are you going to run? be careful how wide you go with 17" wheels.

Thank you sir! this is intense work for me as i've never gone this far into building a car before so its all new to me.

To answer your questions, yes i am going to be running e30m3 suspension. Most likely AST coilovers or if funds lack ill consider something else, but everyone can vouch for them so i'll try it out.

As far as wheels I have no idea how wide i want them yet as offsets scare me at this point. The fenders will be pulled out flat and dollied all the way around so that should give me a little bit of extra clearance to run wider wheels.

The only trouble now is deciding what size lips to get as the barrels are 6" with a 5" backspacing and an original offset of et13. I want to achieve the widest wheel possible that doesnt stick too far out of the fenders. There will be a serious amount of camber all around to tuck them in as well.

This car is basically being converted to a car that will only be driven a few times a year so tire wear and all that stuff dont scare me at all.

any recommendations?

same here, i actually dont know what i am going to run as far as a brake booster goes for this setup, i gotta do a little more research. Any idea of what booster the other S54 swapped e30s have run?

[e30Rob]

i have an already modded e21 booster you could use if u wanted it.

[e30polak]

Nice build. This is gonna be one of the sickest non-m e30s around when it's done. :pimp:

Great work! Keep up the updates! :D
