Broke my new Harbor Freight lathe. Why they built it with plastic gears Is beyond me. For $600 retail I'm sure there is enough of a profit margin to put $20 worth of Chinese metal gears.

[IRON-E]

Because Harbor Freigh Niguel. ;)

Imma need the wrench tomorrow.

E36 arches welded into E30 fenders.
10-15mm wider and taller


NEAT!

[Ayman]

Dope. Link?

[R3Z3N]

Curious, how much wider is the rear of an e30s arches compared to the front? I know I have the same offset front and rear wheels, but the front needs a 12mm spacer to be flush whereas the front has about 3mm of clearance. E36 fenders integration might be onto something too!

Then again this could just be the hub distance from center of chassis is different front to rear?

Are you taking into consideration camber or do you have all that squared up?
I really don't know. Fender line up could be the same, and maybe control arms/trailing arms play more of a roll?
Because I know when you do a bastardized 5 lug setup, all sorts of wizardry happens with offsets.

Got off work early and decided that I needed to finally put in my sunroof panel. The panel didn't match my interior and it had rips so I was debating what to do and decided to use a water proof map. I figured what the hell, should only take maybe an hour. My sunroof was never aligned properly so that took me about 4 hours to fix. Fuck the sunroof!

What do you guys think? I think it adds a little pop. It's a map of big sur and surrounding areas.
