(I suggest letting all the photos load for a while at this point, "Some" photos to follow.. 
maybe i should remove some?)
This is my 2nd calypso e34 and my 2nd car. My other e34 i still have and gonna be made into a drift car in time... probably start a build thread of that someday when stuff starts happening...
bought it looking like this from a lovely old couple which have owned it since 96' and it was family owned since ever..
this is some of the stuff ive modified it with since:
- SPAX stiffness adjustable 50/35mm from my other car transferred over.
- powerflex in rear subframe, and front control arms/caster arms.
- mtech steering wheel and drivers seat.
- Azev Type A 17x8.5 ET 13, transferred over from the other car. 15mm spacers all around. Final ET -02
- under door entry/exit lighting.
- retrofitted factory curtain in the rear window.
plus a bunch of stuff i can't remember properly
here are some photos to show the story up until now:
had an off, no damage at all.. luckily
Me!
don't mind the winter bumper
Wash by JVGFoto, on Flickr
so this is basically the hole story up until now...
as it sits atm:
Also coilovers has been bought and arrived,only got to install the rear ones the other day.. the fronts are in for welding on some extra hubs.. getting them tomorrow hopefully
slammage to follow shortly...
Suspension fully extended with the shock wound all the way down..
having a problem tho, i can't for the life of me get the spring preload collars loosened up.. any tips? feels like im breaking it... and since the shocks are wound all the way down into the bottom i will need to loosen the preload and lower the spring to get it lower?
