more current build thread...but not alot top update..i have since decided to replace every part available in the motor. so that added a couple thou to the budget!! but as of right now, one order away from finishing the motor parts and off to assembly to mr. jr nagy who will be assembling it..

everything will be new as far as timing gear, chains, sprockets, oil pump, valves, pistons, rods, bearings, everything...

it is gettin there, but some of these parts are not cheap and i am still on a budget til the wife is working consistently..

That engine would look killer in my 240z...Love the car, would make love to the tailpipe given the chance. Be glad you aren't local, I hear that stuff can gum up the exhaust.

and not much to look at right now, give it a few more months...paint an dbody will be done, wheels will be done, and hopefully motor will be done..

right now i am still recovering form surgery, so can't do much...other than gather parts!!

I live off of 136th by the safeway on meridian. But currently I am sitting at my desk in my dorm at PLU. haha. There is actually a meet this Friday at 7:30 at the dennies. It's a bunch of vw guys and me and two other bmw guys. If you are feeling well enough, everyone would looooovvve to see the gli.

[eddie]

picked up a set of kw v2 coilovers yesterday, so those will be goin on the car...

Awesome, good call getting the m5 back but what made you think the gli was a better family car than the m5? I'd think the opposite but I've never owned either car so i dont really know.

the gli at the time had full warranty, airbags, only 2 years old and we had owned it since new....all around felt like a safer car...

the m5 is a raw car, fun, but raw...

no pics of the rabbit...it was just basically a clean shell with a mound of parts...parted it and made close to 10k on it...made quite abit extra in my pocket off that build...

few pics of the new lips...the old rears are becoming the fronts, s0 18x9.5's with 3" lips...the old fronts are becoming the new rears..so 18x10.5 with 5" lips...

my buddy andy who did the bodywork on my jetta is doin the bodywork to make em fit a bit better...245's up front and 295's in the rear...
