      Wow, thanks for the warm welcome guys!

      Few more pics of the 2002




      Crappy shot of the interior. Door panels, and recaros and rear seats have been upholstered in matching two tone leather. Still need to put the carpet in to finish off the interior.


      Front 4piston vented rotor brake upgrade


      Complete rear end rebuild which included a 3.91LSD, rear disc brake conversion, SS lines, all new bushings (some rubber, some poly), new bearings, rebuilt axles ect.


      The parts


      Also did front end (less exciting) reinforced subframe, rebuilt steering box, all new bushings,balljoints/bearings new swaybars, ect.


      Ceramic coated shorty headers I installed in January


      Prototipo christmas present


      How it looks under the hood right now. Getting all new gaskets, timing covers, larger sequential Weber 38/38 carb, hogged intake, hoses, water pump, timing chains, guides, S14 starter, alternator, ect ect.


      Should be done and insured by the end of April

          Yup, it's a 535i. 528es are cool, but every time you hop in one and put the foot down you always wish it was a 535i.

          Crappy photo, but these are the wheels on it now


          The interior is one of the things I love most about this car. It's so retro and SO MUCH BROWN


          The car was very low when I bought it. I "raised it up" by installing a fresh set of billy sports and H&R sport springs. The old springs had been heated with a torch to lower the car.


          Ass shot
