E36 Widebody Build

[xigetmoneyx]

Seems like this is going to be a fast looking really slow car if it's ever finished.
It's cool that you're trying to tackle something big like this, but it seems pretty pointless to me...

[kanovic]

agreed. fuck the ******, do what you want. id ten times rather have a 'not perfect fitment' widebody e36 than a mint but still ugly ass regular e36. keep up the good work bro, i like where this build is going.

your a retard if you rather have a none perfect fitment widebody over a mint e36 imo the e36's have one of the best body lines of any cars out there, maybe not the regular e36 bc of the front bumper but the ///M is amazing.....

@ sean, so if i understand wright, your opinion is buy a decent kit or dont do it at all?

My last wb build was this:



This was a cheap ass e-bay kit. With a front bumper from a ford and honda skirts and rear bumper. This car look'd perfect in the end.

I mean no offence but even a cheap kit can look good. And i think everyone has to look further than what he/she likes. There is always the money. You have to be honest with yourselfat what you can afford.

I'm not trying to be an ass, i really like your style and i'm a great fan off your car. But not everyone can afford e decent or expensive kit

hahahaahahaha that made my day

i cant beleive loads of you think the e36 is an ugly car i think its a beautifull car hence buying one!

" dad where did i leave my massive slotted and drilled rottors? oh son, there leaning against the 911 turbo." Clearly funds are not an issue wth this build lol.
been watching this build keep the progress coming.

miata turbo....350bhp....6speed gearbox....recaro A8's and more....

[CSBolger]

Oh man, was that a Miata or a Dust Vac?

Nice progress Mark.

I hope you don't plan on taking your car on the race track with those pads... Although, without any horsepower your motor won't be able to push that wide body through the air at any rapid rate anyways.

Still, having a wide body is a cool novelty. It was fun when Don's had a stock motor. It'll be more fun when we're done with it though.

Well the way it works is pretty much everybody starts at trial membership, and then they see what you do in a year or so and then you can move up to full membership, but yeah their excited to see the outcome just as much as me and you guys so thanks for the support again i promise i will not let you guys or myself down

yeah well that pics from back in the day's i liked that. Point off the pic was the kit was so wothless i mainley jused it as a mold. Everything on that car was handmade.

Now if i would build a WB, i'd take a E46 M3 supercharge it and put a flossman kit on it or at least a kit in that style. Than drop it put some nice wheels on it.

I'm really excited to see more of this car. So mike thumbs up for ya mate

As much as I enjoy the idea, this should not be a budget build by a first timer. Your going to end up spending a lot of money on a project that will just not come together right. Now if you had a built up motor and a junked e36 and came accross a deal on some wide body wheels, THEN decided to put it all together, that would make more sense. To me, this should be aborted at once and brought back to its former glory, then buy a wrecked turbo'd M3 and give it another go.

Gotta crawl before you can walk mate.

Fixed and looking good!
