A Reintroduction of Sorts (Project S52 Cab Content)

[BimmerDawg]

You're going to have a beautiful vert. I am patiently awaiting the finished product.

Thanks! I'm extremely excited for this project.

TRM has been working on OBD2 programming for a while. Perhaps there are some "trial car" possibilities working into this build. :D

Nah, OBD1 here.

Hey where in ATL is trm located?

Just west of I-85 off of Lawrenceville-Suwanee Rd. www.racersmarket.net

Update!

Been gathering a few parts over the last week or so and am throwing them in as we speak: (not pictured are the FK 60/40 springs as they're on the FedEx truck right now)







And the Lambo isn't mine, but a customer's. :)

[Huff]

Can't wait to see this around town...

Well I have a new excuse to drive by Butler Tire more often after this is finished.

Where did you pick up the FK springs from?

Haha, come by any time. Got them off eBay for $200 shipped.

Rear all good to go:

Finally, how she sits now:











Ride is pretty firm, but not as firm as I'd like. Drop is nice and I'll hope it will settle a little more. I'll update my feelings of the FK 60/40 drop and Bilstein Sports after I get some more miles on them. But soon it's off to TRM to get the S52 in. Stay tuned!

Geordie,
Looking good I think the interior scheme you came up will flow really well. Matt wants me to do some work for him also so we can coordinate picking all of it up at one time.
