well, pulled one of the cars out of the neighbors barn last week and started to get a bit done on it. The dentist my wife worked for has a GTR and keeps bugging me to get to the ring with him (every few weeks he drops thousands on training weekends.) He told me he would show me the ropes.
so, I thought the first thing that needs to be done is the crappy 5 lug wheel sitting incorrectly needs to be fixed- I want to have alot of brake and ZERO tire rubbing. Well here are a few things I collected up over the winter for the car.
It's moving along a bit atleast.
pulled it out of the barn looking like this--
It's a 2.7 with an Alpina/schrick 268, hartge headers, IE oversized valves, and a bit of port/polish done on the head, and Alpina ECU, 3,91 visco....everything is poly, or new BMW rubber.
put the M coupe rotors and knuckles on it
what's peaking out there?
the cheapy coilovers
have had these wheels for a bit now (all 4 are the 8.5", thought they would be the perfect offset-- nope, need spacers for the coilovers. still need to refinish the wheels though.
and on the car, yes, the rear is for the other side front- want to see what kind of tire I can squeeze under the rear-- but it seems 16" doesn't offer much............. so it seems it will be 225/40/16 for all four corners.
and a bit of that fast and furious for those of you e36 guys out there. I just put the euro S50 back together on it after it ate a cam nut and exploded itself. lambo doors, huge wing, airride and lexani's what more could you ask for!
