    Well suspension is in, and honestly my install went well!





    Chris hooked it up with more parts and I guess maybe more to come? Also picked up a set of Yakima roof racks for 30$! Needs wheels as well but I'm torn to as what size, I also think I'm going to maybe do plastic bumpers eventually....

      E38 Style 5's are phenomenal. If you aren't going 5 lug, I'd recommend a quality fill and drill.

                      No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

                            Picture quality kinda went bad after the upload from some reason oh well you get the gist, since I'm sitting here in my room with nothing really to do I guess I'll share things I'd like to do before the start of next year or just in general as well as things I've learned or enjoyed about the car thus far. To start I'll go with what I call by wish list...

                            Wish List:
                            1. Bumpers, whether this be going to plastics, doing euros, or even just a late model or es valance for the meantime I wanna do something.
                            2. Steering wheel, I like the renown millie motorsport along with the MOMO Prototipo that I ran in my Volvo 240.
                            3. Rear valance if I stick with the diving boards.
                            4. Is spoiler or Mtech Spoiler.
                            5. Coilovers.
                            6. Maybe window tint? I'm not sure I'm torn about this at darkest I'd do 35%.
                            7. Bolt in cage and seats, this will likely happen next year.
                            8. 885 head swap.
                            9. Next year I'll explore the option to maybe do a swap with an m50 or s52 or look into boosting the m20 with the 885 head.
                            10. Different wheels, maybe Style 5's with adapters or Fifteen52's


                            Things I enjoy about that the car:
                            1. Ive fallen in love with the way these cars drive their fun and overall very well balanced cars
                            2. So far its been great on gas!
                            3. The LSD is awesome! (its fun to slide in the rain!)
                            4. Oil changes are pretty easy! Sometimes getting the filter is a little toasty...
                            5. Another thing I find cool about the cars is the simplicity of them that still gives of a complicated vibe especially with the interior being overall simple yet furthermore simple for passengers since its more driver-oriented
                            6. I also love the feel of driving it, things like pedal feel and the gearbox its much cleaner cut than my Volvo (I still want a short shifter kit)


                            Never the less I love the car and I hope to be able to continue to try my best and keep this forum going with better pictures and such!

                              FWIW I really like the way the diving boards look on this car. Not much I would change at all to the exterior. That's just my opinion though.
