RedMeat: LS6 Powered, M3 Flared, LTW Project - SOLD

[unloadedak]

Thanks guys! I didn't get done what I wanted to on Sunday :( ordered parts from Guten to get it done soon though. I'll be in KC this weekend for a concert so no e30 time this weekend..

I have the exact same welder. I absolutely love it as a hobby welder. Mine is also set up for mig welding and it lays some absolutely beautiful beads. The build looks great!

it's a buddies welder and it's a love/hate relationship. welding thin metal like stitching the body it is terrible, thick stuff like patching the trunk it was perfect except the duty cycle is low.

not sure on the spoiler, I would go for a more classic dtm style spoiler. Still an awesome build though!

dtm isn't nearly as functional and only non-m option is dtmfiberwerkz and i'm iffy on their stuff..

Hahah I don't think you wanna lose that debate. You had a 5 month head start and I have caught up lol.

Edit: and you didn't have any fiberglass fab, trunk creation, or strip your wheel wells ;)

You're right.................taking a five month break to start my wives business which required me to completely gut my basement, while being a full time college student and WORKING 40+ hours a week is a completely illegitimate argument.

I retract me previous comment.........;D

This project is awesome, Nice work! I love the use of cleko pins to mock up the flares as well.

You said priorities. Therefore you just proved e30 is not priority for you.

[IronFreak]

I have a list, its not at the top haha

Subing, I like where this is going.

[Peattie]

I dont know how I forgot about this thread. Looks awesome, now I want some M flares..

[unloadedak]

thanks guys.

got a couple more ideas to mess around with before it's off the rotisserie.

gonna try and get a super simple removable core support fabbed.. some tubing and the same connectors they use for removable cage braces.
if you've ever pulled a 24v motor with trans on it you know that the core support and oil pan become very close friends.

rough plan
-cut out floor for cage mounts
-finish fuel system install
-removable core support
-install front suspension
-take it off the rotisserie
-sunroof plug
-cage/paint prep

I have to ask about this setup since I'm about to do the same. I keep reading everywhere on the forums that it's nearly impossible to do E36 M3 front with these wheels. I'd appreciate any help and advice.

[unloadedak]

How is it impossible? Only issue was calipers. I dremeled them but spacers would work too. I ran 5mm all around on these wheels.
