'As it will become'.. Just current rollers until I find the right set of CCWs as stated. 👍

And if you're stating the equips on the integra were fake; far from. Custom barreled and all.

Haha yes I know. I've already located some houndstooth cards, black carpet. I'll be redoing the seats black leather with diamond stitched inserts in a few weeks. Thank you!

Hey guys, Noobie here! 91 E30 vert build





Overall the stretch really turned out less than I assumed, and I'm quite pleased it wasn't anything too crazy.





Well. Started off adding the parts tonight. Ran into a few hiccups & called it a night until needed parts come in.

First, apparently with e30 NRG hub, you have to run a quick release for the holes to line up to screw in the steering wheel. So that's on overnighted order

Second, the front wheels rub against my front strut housing. Slapped on a 10mm spacer & gave me just the right amount of clearance; BUT I don't feel as if the allowed thread amount that catches on the lug bolt to be substantial enough. So I ordered the needed lug bolts from good ole pelican 👍

Thirdly, once I disconnected my battery as instructed to remove my factory airbag steering wheel & such; once I reconnected and started it up, straight ran like shit. Idling rough & dying on me. I know this resets the ecu & all, but wtf. I was going to diagnose further into, but too tired & I'll check it out Saturday when do a full tune up & oil change. Any advice or insight as to what the cause of that could be, please let me know.

As of right now, the ride height wasn't adjusted too much over the offered height from the vogtlands. I'll be waiting until I have all 4 wheels on & go from there. Thanks guys!

Lol I'll be keeping a set of the baskets & selling the other. I just can't roll stockies 24/7 so until I find the wanted CCWs, I'll bounce back & forth with the reps & baskets.

Really appreciate it! Hope to keep it interesting 👍

Little wax & buff action today along with coilovers install.

[htx_e30]

Hey guys, Noobie here! 91 E30 vert build

Installed some goodies today on both the e30 & Chevy.



Rear Shackle lowering/leveling kit on the Chevy.



Wired up the system on e30. Just a little bump action, nothing too crazy. Painted my kidney grills gloss black. Left the inserts stock matte black. Installed coilovers and home made wheel spacers to clear front wheels. It's veryyyy tight. Pics will show.




















Going to be removing the coil sleeve spring seats tomorrow. Didn't give enough lows for my liking. (Still up on jack stands in pic)


Home made wheel spacers 😛


The clearance on passenger front wheel/strut 😳


The clearance on driver front wheel/strut

Well, that's it for today. Waiting on more stuff to come in. Once I do the last coilover mod tomorrow; I'll post up pics. Thanks guys!

Those spacers are cool. So is that sticker.

In my opinion, the wheels and tires are too small, looks like you got a shit load of wiggle room to go bigger. Paint that trunk spoiler to match the car and it'll look sexier. Other than that I like the car, I'm not into vets (at all) but yours looks nice and we'll kept. Good Luck with the build

Thanks man. Yeah I'm adjusting the coilovers today to work with the huge wheel gap. I will definitely be going with 16s once I get my real CCWs or alike wheels.
