  • Jesus fuck dude. This thing is absolutely amazing! And considering you originally got 3 e28's for 650$ (which works out roughly £360 GBP) that's crazy. I'd be lucky to get an e28 shell in the Uk that needs some welding for £1000 (roughly 1800$ AUS) I want this so badly it hurts me inside

    Easily my favourite E28!

      • Much respect for all the feedback. Thanks everyone

        Fronts are currently being investigated. Stay tuned.

        • The next part of the build - front fitment.

          I wanted to increase front camber to get it closer to the rears angle. Nothing you can buy that would achieve this.

          So I bought another set of BC top hats and had them machined out on a Milling machine by a friend. If it wasn't for the missing paint it looks factory.



          Took them out as much as possible without having to notch the strut towers (about 1mm clearance to centre strut nut)

          From my measuring I can get the front to -5 degrees with ease now.



          New outer lips for the fronts will be ordered in the next couple of days!

              • Looks much better with some camber man! Looking forward to seeing it with the front wheels rebuilt.

                      • New lips have been ordered. Now the wait for them to arrive from the motherland.

                        • Some may have already seen this from Instagram, but went for a nice drive saturday with a mate and took some photos.

                          • Nice work!
                            I love the fact that you could buy 4 (albeit only 1 that was driveable) E28s for $1250.. I would have had a punt on that! Impressed with the effort you've put in, and the end result. Keen to see where this goes

                            • Been driving with busted gearknob since buying this car, finally found a genuine knob that i like and think suits the car. I would have preferred it without the ///M stripes however.
