Another 5.0 build: #projectmerica

[DER E30]

Better pics of the flares are needed! Nice swap!

It sounds badass!!

Big fan of the (cherry?) red diff paint.

How's the ground clearance with that muffler? My car isn't slammed or anything (H&R race dealies) but I'm pretty sure that muffler, that spot on my car would scrape like a motherfucker.

Also, if you don't feel like fucking with the stock pedal stuff, a m42 throttle cable works well - it's what I've been using on my car.

yea the clearance isn't bad, but I'm not hammered. It's tucked up there as much as it can be.

Amazing man!

So, give us the down-low on offset, tires and Ka flares you're running.

[ballski]

Regular KA flares, 265/40/17 in rear, I don't know the offsets since I built them to my liking with bigger outer lips

I need a new radiator lol

[jalopi]

I like that intake, pretty slick.

As long as you've got a decent fan that radiator will be OK for street use. Track use will put your temps high as a motherfucker. I've got a z3m mishi radiator and I say it's overkill. Aside from that the clearance to your water pump snout will be roughly 1/8". I think an e36 mishi rad will do you just fine.

Very nice build!

Unfortunately, this thing is for sale now........

Need the money to build a bigger garage addition and a lot has changed since I started this project with a wife and daughter ;)
