E34 - Love at first sight..

[autoE34]

I love your car, it sounds fantastic. Hope you refinish the steelies! would look dope in white

[alantw-15]

i also love your car, it is constantly evolving and changing exactly how you want. never two days the same. i have have a friend like you who every night in bed comes up with a new idea and goes out and changes his car the next day haha.

also could you please tell me the spec of your holset turbo. i am about to buy a hx40 for my m303.5 but holset are very hard to deal with and dont really want to know, and i am trying to work out the best spec.

keep it up!

Amazing e34! Keep up the good work. As previously mentioned, do your own thing! It's nice to see something different for a change

[RaimoHal]

Thank you.

About this holset HX50.. I don't have it anymore. I only remember that it was from 12L diesel engine. For my M50B25, i'm looking for HX35 or hx40.

Right now i'm trying to make my 2,0l engine faster. I want to build it as cheap as i can.

For now i removed vanos and intake cam and replaced it with B25 intake cam. (b20 has 9.0mm lift and B25 has 9.7mm lift).
I'm using B25 injectors, ECU, MAF and all sensors that comes with B25 engine. And wiring.
I also need to replace flywheel with lighter one (~6kg) and clutch.
B25 ECU is better because its bosch motronic. Now i can order Piggy-pack from poland:


Now i need to find out if i can use M51D25 pistons and rods.

Sorry for bad english. I understand everything you are talking but its been a long time since i practiced english.
It feels awsome to hear something good about my car from another country, so thank you again!

I like it.
Yeees, you should paint those steelies white.
And in the back it needs a little spacers.

steelies definintely need white. smilies, slim kidneys, and the m5 filler plate!

i love calypso red e34s.
can't wait for more updates on the turbo build!

much love,
fellow e34 owner.

[RaimoHal]

Yes, maybe i should try white colour for those wheels. With varnish?
I'm not shure about smilies - i removed old lights that had burned reflectors and replaced with those lights. I think they look great with wide kidneys. Maybe not so good on the picture..
Smilies are too mainstream in Estonia




Right now I'm more focused on the technical side, the appearance comes in summer. By the time the snow has melted, i hope its ready to drive again.

Thank you guys and i'll try to keep you posted. (and work on my english)

@ Semu: Mul on kusjuures olemas juba vanadest ketastest flantsid aga nende keskavad on liiga suured ja jäävad loksuma. Lasen ette 10mm flantsi treida. Taha tuleks natukene väiksem. võib-olla nii väike, et pole mõtet panna.

Terv,
Raimo

nice, needs to be cleand up

[0MgLoLe36]

i love e34s! looks good

[Ew!]

Golf Mk2 rear coilovers fit?
What modification did you have to do for them to work?

[Zubcho]

Please tell us more about the 17 inch rims. I've been thinking about rims like that but never found 17 inch stееl rims for BMW to buy.

I like your new rims Make them red inside and black outside.

[RaimoHal]

My 2,0l engine @ 0,8bar boost. Feels good.


Google translation:

There is still much to be done on the car. Starting with the appearance. Rusty door should be replaced and the whole car repainted. This requires a lot of time and money but i like my car, and I am ready to take this journey. The original width of the wheels can not say, but the first is 9 "wide and rear 10". Spacers are used front 17mm and rear 10mm spacer is also needed. I hope you like this car and trying to make more pictures soon.

Raimo.
