Scott's E36 Touring

[Minuki]

Crazy to think in just over a month I've accumulated all these bits for the car. Picked up my bumpers last night from my Papas. They don't need much to get them ready for paint Which will be soon...I hope!



Going to get some supplies tomorrow so I can start prepping for paint.

I've just realised that the wing I've bought, is different! Such a tit

Your picture seems to be missing the vital coilover component.

It will do, Chris. I'm told that's what it's off of. It's a '98

Thanks man

Yeaaah, I know haha. That's this months paycheck probably

Only if these were available in the U.S. Would be 10x better. Can't wait to see the M kit on.

Yeah, me too!

Managed to change the Pollen Filter today. Bit of a tricky job, disassembling was easy enough, just getting the new filter back in was annoying. Need to get my Dad to give us a hand.

Made a big difference to the air con, really blows!

Old filter out -






Then I went and put in the new fuel computery thingy..but that doesn't work because my wiring is different. Also, when the car is turned off, it sounds like something is still getting power...so It was in for long before I replaced it with the standard unit.

Photo just for the hell of it -


Annnd, I don't have the wiring for the heated seats either...damn. Gonna have to do some wiring I think!

Little bit of an update on this. My Dad went over to the tyre fitters to get a tyre mounted for my Papa (He hit a kerb and shredded the thing) And to my surprise he came back with 2 tyres mounted to my rear wheels too.

215/45/17
&
225/45/17

So after I'd finished replacing the foglight I threw the wheel with the 215/45/17 on. This is how it looked.





I got super excited at that point. I'm thinking of using 215/40/17's so this gives me an idea of how much to roll my arches.

Looks good! I like it with a bit of chunk in the sidewalls. Now slam it and rag it

[dav3design]

Looking good Scott!

I'm digging the 215/45 man

Cheers guys. Coilovers should be coming really soon

Yeah, it looks decent! I think the 40 profile will give me a little more room to go lower though.

Got a bit bored the other day and decided to try out one of my detailing products I got. I got some Auto Finesse Revive and went to work on my side moldings. They cleaned up real good!



Just bought another wing (The right type this time ) So I'm all set for paint at the end of the month. 11 days till I can drive this thing too

[Evil Panda]

Ughh, I love tourings.
