    Damn Vlad, look good.


    You really have to get a 2002, there has been some whispers on another forum about your quality of work and everything. You really need to resto-mod a 2002.

  • 400,000 miles never looked so good ! My new Daily project - E34 S52 OBDI

    :EDIT: new pics on page 4

    I got this car few weeks ago - it's 1991 BMW 525i with 407,000 miles
    OBD1 S52 w/3.5" MAF, TRM Chip, Raceland Headers, Straight-piped into a Borla Muffler. Dyno'd 242 whp and 218 rwtq. Car puuls like a train and is very fast!

    this is what it looked like when I got it





    it looked good on pics but was basically undriveable as the coils were slammed all the way down, brakes were shot, suspension was shot, it had stretched 195 rear tires on 16" BBS RS rims that were more square than round etc... but it had potential as the motor was very sound...

    so since I go the car I've been working on it little by little trying to fix whole bunch of issues and problems and make it some what drivable...

    replaced the coil overs, fixed oil leaks, replaced all suspension components







    upgraded to M5 brakes calipers, cross drilled rotors, stainless steel lines, new pads, etc





    fixed and repainted front bumper and the hood











    replaced the speakers



    interior got full make over, it's not completed just yet, this is just a teaser





    I also installed smoked euro smileys, euro tails, M5 mirrors, 17x9 Front and 17x10 rear completely re-done set of rare Remotec rims





    the car finally looks and rides like it's supposed to :D

    I also have the M5 rear bumper being installed next week along with black dash, new windshield and few other goodies and then I will take more pics
