I haven't been active on the forum recently, in august I sold my Boston green coupe to some asshole in Mass. who still has one of my wheels. for a short time I had a bagged 740il and finally sold that and picked up another e36, this time a 328i sedan, black on tan, sport package, and HiFi sound. It is actually my best friends old sedan that he sold when he joined the army and after 2 years I bought it back.
Here is my vert, my first build on here.
Here is my coupe I sold that you might remember.
And this is after a 2.5 hour drive home in a blizzard
Wanted to try and do this car at a higher level of parts quality and more useful than my last 3 e36's. I had some money saved up and decided to spend it all on a 20 year old crappy bmw lol
I went with Fortune auto 500's, it was a toss up between them and Browdway static but I really wanted to have useful car not a stance machine thats hard to live with. IM sure you have all. heard how good these coilovers are. The quality of the machining, the anodization and all the included hardware is just phenomenal. Dealing with the customer service and the technical support was literally the best of any company I've ever felt with. If you are on the fence between any other coilover BUY THESE
Fortune auto 500
f: 12k
r:16k 5in length (requested after purchase )
I had a nice set of 17x9.5 A.R.E. 2 piece wheels, but the asshole (Raymond Campo, Revere Massachusetts IG: 5x120) still has one and refuses to mail it back to me even after i paid the shipping costs. so basically the other 3 are useless, Long story short searching craigslist near my school found an awesome deal on a freshly powder coated set of Blitz Z1 17x8.5 5x114 and scooped them up. The lips need some love but they are in great shape otherwise.
I picked up a Recaro SPG XL (6"2" 250lbs lol) and a Driftworks seat mount. The seat mount is awesome, sets you super low in the car, if you are short don't buy it loll can hardly see over the steering wheel and I'm by no means short. super sold seat base though and I'm happy with it. I don't have many pictures from the install, I was working alone, and really just wanted to get it taken care off. So enjoy these pictures. I need to order smaller rear adapters so I can lower the rear, but the front is about where I want it.
I installed an OMP steering wheel and a 3,23 LSD and love them both. Im still looking for a half cage if anyone knows of one, and I have Cams, intake, and a tune to still install.
I know my pics are huge and they from an iPhone lol.. but ill update some more as parts roll in and I get back home on spring break.
