Any updates?

[Miles.]

Nice to see a build like this in the uk, this is one of few and far between. Subbed.

Things are going very slowly for me. Lack of funds has left me taking a major step back from the car, the more time I spend online, the more money I need for rent gets spent on it.

I'm on an internship next year from the summer so hopefully get it all tidied up for then.

Proof the internet does bad things to your wallet. Found these, and hopefully using my newly found sewing machine skills, I'm going to attempt a bolster repair. As well as an electric seat conversion from the current bases.

looking good Jorge!

[Jorge]

Guard dog keeping my car safe. 4 weeks and University is over for the summer, I can then get a job sorted and finish it!

[Jorge]

Yes and no, I haven't given it much thought yet. Thanks

Love it! Possibly the best looking e24 I've ever seen. So are you still planning on doing ac schnizers in body color? I would consider something a bit brighter to give it a lighter look but do whatever you like! I've seen that you have good taste, so I highly doubt that you would mess this beauty up

[Minuki]

Good to see she's all fixed up

Wheels should be interesting, to say the least!

Love the car man. Bagged e24 crew represent!

Can't wait to see the new wheels once you've worked them out.

[Jorge]

I can't say much really. It has never been properly set up yet, and I've never driven another bagged car to compare. It was previously far, far too floaty.

Yea i did.. I used the hi damp non-adj struts.. How do you like them?

[Jorge]

what front UAS are you running? 75559,75561...?

Sounds about right. Speak to BR, they hooked me up.

[Jorge]

Do you still plan on fitting 10" wide wheels up front on this? If so, what offset you think you will need to accomplish this?

Well, this test picture was 17*10 ET5. And it caught the strut. I plan on changing barrel half an inch smaller, and lip half an inch larger. Probably end up with another 5mm on the spacer, so effective ET0. Long term will hopefully see the spacers replaced with an inch larger lip and smaller barrel.

Yeeeeeee
