      Thanks for the nice compliments.

      Update:
      Things are moving slowly. Picked up this E34 the other day for $15 which makes a nice donor car. It runs but hasnt been driven in a little while b/c it didnt pass inspection (bushing problem). Going to swap the M50 over until I can save up for a better swap. Its a Non Vanos M50 which is what I was looking for in a M50. Since I picked up the car for cheap I decided to throw a stock M50 in it. My plan is to sell the factory leather interior and a couple other things to help my V8 funds. And yes you read the price right, no type-o's. ;)









      Now im just gonna buy some mounts and what not to throw this engine in so my car can be a little fun compared to the M20B20.

        Same tire and wheel size as mine (up front, at least). Perfect size for 16" wheels, but you have to be low enough in the front. This car looks great.

          You can not just set the coilover spring onto the strut mount. You need a top hat bearing setup or else itll bind and pop. Other than that, youre off to a good start.

            Coilovers arent even finished yet. Just a snap shot. Springs are to tall and doesnt have good shocks either. I have the top hats and everything but Im ordering different springs from ground control with better spring rates.

              yea man, I like the tire sizes it has. Front is perfect while the rear lets me have just enough stretch to get by with being low.
