HMS Wiener; My e34 love story

KIDO Coilovers, weld on's

[big_dane]

Nice E34 dude !!! What coilover set up are you running? I've been looking all over for coilovers for a E34 but all I was able to find were KW's and Nex's which are a bit too expensive for me.

random circumstances really, its calypso paint was real bad so i just sprayed it black, it had cracked several places because of a lip i had on it that slammed everywhere and in the end it just looked worse then the original clean one :P

[penpen]

poor Mtech bumper, why use that as your winter bumper?

[Smurfen]

bought some wheels... and this is the process of me refurbishing them :P

[Smurfen]

bought some magic cans called plasti dip and shadowlined my car today, turned out decent

DOWETNAO!!!!! 17x10!

[Smurfen]

tried som 10" wide fronts... "drool".... now looking for a 17x10 square setup!

btw, car not on ground in these pics..



( no rub )

[Smurfen]

its not really bendable or large enough etc... would not work.

[e30_vert]

Can't you just bend the bracket at an angle to match the end link?

[Smurfen]

update:

since i did not get my sway bar mounting brackets rewelded, since i thought they would work and they didn't because of the clearance with the tie rod (it rubbed when turning...) as shown in this pic:


i ordered some e39 v8 sway bar links, since i knew those were longer.



as you can see... a lot more clearance.. now works fine, and no rubbing! altho the sway bar link still sits with a bit of angle... (this could be corrected with the help of some "spacers", since the thread on the link is long...) but ill let them be for now..




ill soon do a proper shoot!

also going autocrossing this sunday

[Smurfen]

why not? looks like a nice weld to me... still holding up fine either way... :S

was at a meet today, and this is how it is at the moment... still working on the ride height and camber to get it where i want it, also need to do some mild fender rolling in the rear specially..
