          HAHA yep.

          Going out to have the exhaust built tonight, anticipating it being back by next week. We'll see.

            Nicely done man, I just read through every page and you did a great job. It's clear this isn't your first project car.

            The brake setup looks very nice, I'm changing mine up to manual soon. The e32 setup was my least favorite part of the swap.

            Hopefully I'll see this thing at some east coast shows this year.

              I ditched the E32 set-up almost immediately and while the brakes have been the hardest part of the swap I'm glad I went the manual route.

              This guy's hardware makes it so simple!



              Should be out at Bimmerfest. Haven't really paid a lot of attention to the show schedule for the summer but I'll hit the big ones. H20 for sure.

                  Wow, I love the wheel & tire setup! What wheels, and what size wheels/tires?

                    Oh those old things? They are some e60 wheels that I forget the style number on wrapped with well worn R comp hankooks 205/50/16. Probably more like a 225 street tire though. Just needed something to roll this thing around on. Sold those black M contours.

                      Well then what wheels are you putting on it? The tires were trashed on those m contours anyhow.

                      Perhaps some dished in 6 spokes??

                        Haha, small world. You bought those tires from me back in 2009. I knew your user name sounded familiar.




                        I love the square shape of the z214's. I have them on 16x8 Rota's, they look the same as yours. Looks beefy!

                          HAHA!! As you can see my budget autocross set-up collected a lot of dust! Small world. I wish there was a street tire as beefy as the 205/50/16 Hankook R comps but I think I'm going a different route with wheels/ tires altogether. I will note that the E60 style 134 16x7 et20 will clear e36 M3 brakes with room to spare.

                                How is the pedal feel with the pedal box?
