1985 Bmw 528i e28 - greetings from New Zealand

clean 28 keep it up

Cheers brother! Progress is slow but better than nothing!

Nice e28, looks alot like mine when mines was stock

Loving your e28 man! Is the dream to one day afford some wheels like yours!

Looking great again now it's on its guts.

Should we have a guess on the time til your next pink sticker?

Hahaha shhhhh! None of that mate! I managed to survive 6 months with no cert so we will see how we go

Thats a badass E28. That certified law stuff sounds annoying lol, I thought it was bad when I moved and had to start getting emission tests.

Oh god don't get me started! Silly laws and stuff! Does make a bit of sense though when you get stuck on a multi story carpark ramp.. #lowlife

Little update! Nothing major just wound down the coils and got it back to a height I'm happy with

Started by getting the car up on some blocks , Jack doesn't even fit at the original height God knows what will happen if I ever get a flat..

Quick shot to give you guys an idea of the "certified legal height"



w



Dropped the fronts down 35mm, rears to maximum until I get some smaller springs and maxed the front camber also





Started getting excited before it's even back down on the ground



Fronts done



Thinking of spacers but kinda digging the boat look tbh! Mmmm



Forgot to photograph the rears as just wanted to go for a drive asap
Will also be needing another sump gaurd as the last one got ripped off and both my sump and lower control arms are about 30mm off the ground



Finished , might raise the front 10mm as I'm literally hitting everything and most roads here arnt that great ! Some nice 16's and she will be sitting pretty. Happy for now though, pictures don't really do it that much justice, thing looks crazy when rolling through the city and throwing the odd sparks haha




Took her for a quick test drive and broke a few necks
Didn't get chance to give her a good cut , Polish and detail as it started getting dark but there's always next weekend! Decided to grab a quick slice of pizza with dad and brother and snapped this last shot! They both have some cool little cars, dads got a Vw mk2 which has had a full top to bottom overhaul, vr6 motor swap, lightened flywheel, computer, tune and KW coilovers. Younger brother has a mk3 vr6 on coilovers with some very rare 5x100 SSR long champs in 16x8 ! Will post up a couple photos next time I see them!



Will take some photos on my proper camera next weekend after a good detail! Next up is wheels, boot lip and maybe a front spoiler/lip, but I don't think it's worth buying anything pricey as my stock bumper has already had a complete hiding twice now

Cheers for reading!

Sweet will do! Just one more leak in the cooling system to go, can't trust her much further than the trip to uni and back at the moment!

Will keep up with the build in the meantime and I'll be in touch when the damn thing's reliable enough to go for a cruise!

Sounds good to me brother!

Post up some pics ! Keen to see if I've spotted it about before!

[Federation12]

Hey bro! Yeah I'm always out and about when I can! Unfortunately been off the road for last 6 months after getting pink stickered but she's back and legal until she gets dropped down again this weekend

Get that thing sorted and let's link up for a cruise!

Slammed E28 with Euro Bumpers: Check! Looks killer.

Thanks man! Very lucky find I must say!

Yeah man! Can't wait to see more!

Thanks bro! Updates this weekend after I've given her a good cut and polish

This is going to sound like an oddly specific question, but do you occasionally take a trip out to Gulf Harbour with this?

If it's the same one I've seen a few times. You might have seen me out working on an always broken E46. Definitely looks the part in person!
