Improper tire makes them look skinnier than they truly are.

[Mr. Horsepower]

Reicived the sub frame and the drive shaft yesterday. Got them painted up today and mounted together the front axle. Came out pretty good!
I dropped her down for the first time with the new rims on, can't say I'm too happy with them. The rear needs to come out 10mm at least to cover up for the 0.5" they are tighter than the Hamann rims I had. Too bad they did not have them in 10".

Also got the interior light delay in the mail today :)

Also started cutting in the wind shield cowl....makes me puke! Anyway, here are pictures.

[Mr. Horsepower]

Recived the clutch and flywheel package from Gripforce today! Parts is looking good :)

[Mr. Horsepower]

Wow! What did you do to the parts to make them come out so nice?

Depends on what parts you are talking about :)
Have used different things on different parts.

[Mr. Horsepower]

Well what do you know, maybe I'm doing it. Still time to turn around you know.

Crabby this morning?

[Farbin Kaiber]

Good excuse, but still lazy and halfassed.

[Mr. Horsepower]

Because the block will not appear when the engine is into the car, and I also need a excuse to take the engine out next winter.
I will probably strip it down and overhaul it since I have to change the timing chain as well.
Starting to buy parts for it as soon as I'm done this winter.

[Farbin Kaiber]

With all that work, why didn't you naval jelly, then spray the block, everything is gonna look all clean on a ratty block. Kinda halfassed.

Awesome build. Can't wait to see the final result!

[IminDiegoTriick]

Wow. I <3 your car.

[Mr. Horsepower]

Some pictures for you! Still waiting for the parts that is to be re welded... Slow progress!









Some before and afters :D

[Mr. Horsepower]

I will post pictures of the booster when it's mounted. It will be mounted on the fire wall, using the joint from the stock booster. I will then have to cut a little bit of the intake plenum an weld. I have not decided if I'm going to remote the reservoir or not yet. Have to see how much it does build and how the access will be.

If you place the booster in the 540 place, I think air filter will be an issue or it will be a tight fit.

thanks for the write up-i'll be using this as a basis on my euro s50 swap:)
quick ?....how will you be using the e34m5 booster dual chamber booster? are you going to mount it remotely like on the e34 540 or 740i?
i'll be doing the said mod...my swap will consist of the remote 740i booster/mc using the brackets from the same car-it should look like this(akg website pic):
