E34 M5 (56k may struggle)

[bmwmike]

As some of you know Im working on getting an E30 in the very near future and already have acquired and am dissassembling an E28 to swap the M30 into an E30 with some forced induction.

Anyway heres my M5. Its a 91, black/black, with dinan S2 suspension, Eisenmann exhaust, powerchip, high flow cat, intake and some wheels. Also some euro lights, a pair of alpine type r subs and some upgraded audio (Im not really into audio). I took these pics with a Nikon D50 a few months ago when I still had the car on the road (its a TX car and Im not going to torture it with winter).









The car sounds pretty mean with a lopey idle, and revs to nearly 8k with the chip (I dont ever take it much over 7 as thats the stock limit).



It currently rests in my garage

Is that really 126,000-mile-old paint?
Sweet rims and lip too.

[Jand3rson]

Not a fan of the rims, but a fucking sick car nonetheless.

S38 is my dream engine, I have wanted to shoehorn one into an E30 ever since I first laid eyes on it.

^the previous owner claimed that, however I can see slight over-spray on some of the window weatherstripping which I think says its been repainted. The paint does look great in person. I love the deep dish as well (i think thats what you meant by lip, the front bumper lip is the original bumper)

Oh and I forgot, the grill is the updated 95 style grill, not the original 91 (it would be narrow)

Like some of the additions, can't say i'm diggin' the wheels though.

Euro moulding.

Cool, if you are ever in the market for some different wheels, or know someone that has an E34, I have a set of staggered(18x8/18x9.5) M-parallel replica's off my old E34 that I need to get out of the garage. They have right around 1500 miles on the rims and rubber. They are perfect, no scratches or blemishes.

I'm in Plymouth BTW, have you joined Northstar yet?

Hey, you ever met my dad a couple years back? Jay Hayes, he used to be the president of the chapter. That was before I had my own BMW and kinda before I could drive too. I moved out of there 4 months after I got my license. I've heard that chapter is rockin! :) Ever gone to a school out at the Dakota Tech training facility, i think it is?


On a side note, I'll trade you engines. AND, before you ask if I'm kiding - of course I'll include everything you need! I'm sure you'd like an M20 more....

Beautiful M5!!! I want an e34 pretty bad...somedya....someday.

Put the stock wheels back on and put all-black grills in and you'd be set.
