Beckster's M52 325IS

Should make your shifter as new as virgin now. Very nice.

Thanks man. Virginity is key.

updates/more teasers.

Got rid of my ds1's because one of the wheels cracked and because I change wheels every month.

So I picked these E38 style 5's up.


teaser.




Got this rear duraflex mtech 2 bumper for close to nothing along with the front which needs repair.



The front is 2 piece which leads me to believe its not duraflex, but some kind of european replica.



Already have a lead on some skirts and maybe a spoiler.
I'd like the kit to be painted and my RS's finished for this years picnic.

Nice build. Just spent some time at work reading through. You have fine taste in wheels lad!

Keep us updated on how the mounting for those bumpers work. Those are the kind without mounting tabs, am I correct? I plan on running the cheapo replicas for my track car and plan on riveting the reps to the old bumper. Very interested in seeing whats to be done!

Yes these don't have mounting tabs, I'll have to figure out how to make them work here soon.

I'm glad I'm running reps because I would be scared to drive my car if it was a real mt2 kit.

Also, thanks for the kind words!

In loving memory of my ds1's and soon to be recycled Jetta lip.



Do I finish building the RS's? Or do I make my m52 a stroker s52 clone?

Decided to install my DSSR so I removed the harmonic dampener off of the driveshaft.


No more dampener!


"Red46" DSSR liking its new home.



Washed:D

Misfortunes.

Long story short.
My getrag blew 3 gears up, I ate a sandwhich, I bought an m54 intake cam, and I'm going to pull a ZF from the junkyard.


(Video of me pulling my motor, and yes most of these clips where intended to be funny.)
