E34 Touring Content, New DD!

[CarsonE30]

Hey r3v, just thought I'd share my newest project here, it's a '95 alpine 525it auto, 217k with a WORKING sunroof! There are however, some issues, all the door locks are fucked and I think that has something to do with fuse 44 and there's a wobble/shake from 50-55 and it feels like a wheel weight but it's going into a shop Thursday for a good go through/inspection. It's currently on coilovers and I think sits perfectly but it is very smooth still, I have no idea what brand it's sitting on but I know the springs are red, so yeah. I'll obviously be updating this thread as things start to happen once summer gets here but for now, it'll be as is for a long time. Onto the pictures!

Dropped the car off this morning at the shop to get a good go through, also snapped a pic this morning since the lighting was perfect!

Wagons are the best. Saw an E500 Wagon the other day... so sleek and classy. It is like putting bacon on something. It gets better.

Or melted cheese :D

Also, found out it's on BavAuto coils :pimp:

Guise. It's chipped. It has a JC chip. It has a JC chip and BavAuto coilovers with Toyo's at all 4 corners. It's ready for the track! PO didn't know anything about the car but the first owner must've loved it. 7000RPM redline from the M50 but god damn it, it's not even close to enough for me. Needs boost or 2 more cylinders.

I love touring so much. I'd love to own a e34 one someday. The e30 routings are just a little to cramped for me.

S54 swap?

S54 swap?

As much as I'd love to own something with an S54, I don't know about putting one in a touring haha I'm leaning towards either an M60B40 since they came with those from the factory, or an S62 if I really wanna go all out with it

Dude, it has a M50 already, just S52 swap it and call it a day

But I'm a stubborn little fuck and want 8 cylinders in my E34 I'd love to supercharge the M50 but doing a swap is probably easier in every regard. Idk, we'll see what happens come summer when work is busy and I'm making enough money to take it on

S52 can make as much power as your beloved M60/62 without the hassle of going through the BAR to make it a legal swap

This is true. And I'll have the M50 intake too. I have decided though for sure that this year will be the year of my first swap/real build and I think the touring would be awesome to do

Can also convert that thing to 5speed while you're at it

So I messaged decay since he has the swap for the M3 but I think I'm gonna keep the M3 stock and as is but that ZF will work with this right?
