1990 BMW 524td(i) - The "Pinky" project

[Raarasutra]

Yes!!! Diesel!!! Love it!!

[superturbodiesel.com]

As someone with an e23 i really want to see those borbets on yours. Like a lot. Probably too much.

Sorry guys! I've forgotten this thread.

The work is in progress! I've sold the rondells, and the Borbets will be used on the 524. I also bought some 8,5 and 9,5x17 Rial with 205 and 215/40 tires for the 745. I've also bought an E32 740iAL fitted with some 8,5 and 10x18 ASA.

The E34 is btw painted+++

I bought TA springs and new maxgear gas-shocks. Because the SS didn't fit. I run cut springs atm with SS shorter shocks in the front. Other things that has been bought:
-new battery
-new 6-channel BM
-Gold carbon trim
-Window 30% tint
-Turboworks IC
-M-side skirts/spoiler
-215/40 and 235/45 tires
+ a lot of minor details

more pics will come, but here you have som documentation:




Needs some TLC, but I love it:



But back to the DD project E34:
I need to mount the rear shocks/springs first of all and naturally the tires. Window tint and bigger turbo/IC will not be first priority, but within the autumn/winter I think that it will be ready. I just need to drive it a little bit before I do something "major" now. And propably make a movie for you(tube).

After I've finished the E34, I will continue with the E23, and then restore and sell the E21 323i. And then I can think more about the W123, E32 and E9

So stay tuned guys.. Nord-Bingen Custom never sleeps

Rondell d58 8,5 and 10x17" or Borbet A 9x17 (will try both of them on it), but probably it will be rondell, because I have a e23 745i which needs some fat rims.

Anders, time to come with a update soon!!

Sorry, I'm 6 hours from the car. But the next weekend pics will be taken, and hopefully a bit more done

[whooty]

[DannyE32]

I was at home one day, and got a little bit done.
- Custom built exhaust 2,5"
-Boost gauge
-Yellow light bulbs

To be continued..

Man that's going to look great in that color with either set of wheels. I would put the Type A's on it, I haven't seen many (or any?) e34's with them in staggered 17" fit

A new pack has arrived. Sideskirts, glow plugs, trunk spoiler.

Slow progress, but I'm studying now. The car is at my home 6 hours from here:P Diffucult to get something done...

so are you gonna run on lowering springs? why not coilovers?

is the car manual? is it too slow? Just wondering.. in bf.c a guy swaped a V12 into his 524, mated to a manual tranny. He said the car was slow to death, so that why i ask

Because I allready have new springs/shocks for the car, if it want be low enough, I will cut them. I also have some other projects who needs some care.

It is manual 5-speed. I don't think it's that slow now. After I got the new eprom/set up which is special built to get max fuel out of stock element in the IP, it works pretty good But it costs pretty much, and few guys knows how to get it right. It's not as fast as an v12, but a completely different car from the stock set up.

I have had e28 m535i and this car isn't slower from 0-100. But I have not testet it good enough yet, I don't get any traction on the snow at all.

Looks like it will be a sick build. I have to ask though, those aren't real Borbets are they? They are still sick regardless.

Thanks Aron, these are real borbets

[tim323]

Should look stunning in that colour. But I thought it was Mora Metallic individual. I've got some BBS RC041/042's in the same colour



In the day light the colour 'pops' jut like the Z3. Could be extremely wrong though.
