M635CSi

[j work]

So...fuel leak from lines taken car of, coolant leak from lines taken care of, manifold on, shroud and fan in, cluster in and had some euro parking/fog light issues(shit is all messed up in europe. No diagrams makes it a bitch too), taillight issues and some gremlins in general. What do you expect from a car thats been sitting for 10 years. But managed to make due.

Slammed my wheels on, got cooling bled, took her out to peel some wheels,

2nd and 3rd gear are DESTROYED!! WTF
Damn near break your wrist popping out

Looks like this car's gettin a getrag 260 in it this weekend from the old car

Bitch burns tires in 1st gear though haha

I'm so ridiculously jealous of this. Did M635csis come with doglegs?

[j work]

No dogleg 1st thank god. Drove a e28 B7 turbo and that just about ruined the car for me.

[ThatEF9kid]

Damn that is an awesome car man, so jelly. Ive got the same problem with my e24 cluster, board is all fried, where can I get a replacement? and will replacing the gear on my speedo make it work again?

29k miles on my dream car...

I am extremely jealous. Lucky find, excited to see what will become of this M!

[Khalil]

Wow awesome find man, hope you do this car justice, looks like you're on the right path.

No dogleg 1st thank god. Drove a e28 B7 turbo and that just about ruined the car for me.

No love for the dogleg?? Hah, I love mine!

[Wyatt Lay]

Awesome!

[doug_e30]

sorry to hear about the red 6er but what an awesome find the m is, so jelly haha

Found a guy; scott at precision gears in marietta, to rebuild my trans. Said he'd pull it apart in front of me for free and let me know what were looking at. Price was already sounding reasonable, so feelin good about it. Hopefully yank that bitch out sometime next week or so.

Appreciate all the likes im getting but its been a pain in the ass so far. Work and no play, bookoo bucks spent and no reward. But it's gettin there. BIG ass k&n filter (damn near same cost as OE fleece/paper filter) SS brake lines comin in the mail as we speak($30 from ebay. hell yeahhhh) and probably a caliper rebuild due to some bad drag.(more problems )




Couple pics of the style 32's and the h&r's I threw on from the old 6er. 5mm spacers add in the rear because the tires are too wide and cutting.

Hopefully off to the body shop for all the work that needs to be done before SOWO. Car's going to be Graphit Metallic like it should be. Off with the macco shit black paint somebody thought was cool.







M635 came with the stock RS005's; put them on the shit car temporarily cuz they are all bent and cracked but thinkin about steplips and makin them a 17". powdercoatin centers gold. golds just bitchin and old school.




Im a purist at heart but love me some good fender and wheel sex.
Ground Control eventually cuz airbags suck(sorry air heads)
And a soild ITB setup when I can get a DME barn-door to MAP program(stock trumpets are dope)
This is going to be about subtle but noticable differences.

Nice work so far man, and good to see that there's gonna be another low e24 on the streets here in Atlanta. Look for me when you go to SoWo. Shouldn't be hard. Just follow the smoke and the leaking oil/coolant/powersteering fluid.

[keeton]

Awesome so far. It sounds mean.

Just follow the smoke and the leaking oil/coolant/powersteering fluid.

I feel your pain. Haha.
