94 M3....wait what?

[SnazzyQ]

Italvolanti pls.

Wheels will finally be shipping out today...sadly no white however. Went with hyper black with isnt as dark as most wheels....hope it looks good.

Guy said.."we have been trying to get a hold of you" I am not good at answering my phone, but no messages were ever left so not happy I waited this long, but whatever it is what it is.

Going to cancel the wheels today, tired of waiting anymore and could use the money towards new coils.

Involanti mounted up last night, need to swap hubs tho for the earlier style momo one however so I can use my horn easier....then to decide if I want a quick release or not...need to measure to see if another 2.5" closer to me will work or not.

Also did an oil change finally...sticker on the window was dated last year but I hit the mileage so it was time...forgot how much oil the s52 takes

I will get some pics tonight of the wheel...need to figure out how to restore it for cheap

What needs to be restored on it? I also **** how BMW inline 6's take 7 quarts of oil...

Yeah super annoying, but got to check out the underside of the car up front which was nice. Slightly leaking ps rack but whatever. Do want to order some fcab bushings soon but that can wait till I figure out what I want.

Well my roomate who borrowed the wheel a while back since it was sitting waiting for the correct car of myne to go in....painted it with some eastwood interrior paint which did hold up...and he did get it stipped somehow without ruining it when I got it back.

More or less its kinda dingy looking in person so I was thinking about trying the leatherique or whatever that stuff is kit to re-dye it back to perfect black. I actually want to really have it re wrapped in suede, but that would cost more than what I think the wheel is worth anymore.

Ordered the rouge engineering quick release..will get some pics once that shows up. From what I have read its a nice piece and works very well with one thing removed for one handed relase. Ordered the other momo adapter but its backordered (was going to cancel but would rather deal with turner this time around than ebay sellers)

Gonna wash the car when I get home so Ill get some pics of stuff finally.

Washed it finally



Steering wheel and a shot with the lugs, someday I'll switch to longer studs

[hinrichs]

Quick release installed from rouge engineering. Wasn't sure about having the wheel closer but damn it feels perfect now, also it's dual pattern so now I can run any wheel I want. I'll get a good pic of the wheel side today once I pull the extra safety pin for one handed release

[SnazzyQ]

Man the steering wheel is the bees knees in there.

[hinrichs]

Love this thing after I removed the extra safety button

Looks really good man.

TFW the steering wheel pops off mid turn at 60mph doe

Thanks man, lol I had to pull the extra safety button for the intended racing it will be doing next year so it can be released one handed

So got my wheels Friday, was lazy and never test fit it until Sunday, but here is a pic. Not sure I'll keep them yet tho

Dropping the wheels off tomorrow for the tire swap

Wish the rear was like this

[CHIF8008]

is there a locking ring aswell as the one that the spring sits on? if you are gonna be all the way down you could remove one of them and gain just a little more drop or something

The main issue is the rear, not so much the front. One side has an adjuster and the other doesnt, also the springs dont seem to be the same. The fronts I can work down a little more as well if I want, or just pull the helpers and raise everything up, but dont wanna to pull them apart yet. Ideally I would like to go with a higher spring rate anyway and It would be a good time to get some coils that have camber plates instead of spending up to 500 for a set for these that are proper.

Dropped the tires off today....but my usual guy is swamped with work since its just him for a while so prolly going to pick them up today and hope to find a new place to go to in the area.


Edit: Just called and was going to send the wheels back but he is getting the tires mounted up today, will grab them friday however. Of course lost a spacer I think I need to clear the front strut. Going to swap the studs out to 90mm tho just incase so I can run a larger spacer incase I add in some camber
