Can I do a 3 year thread bump?
88 535i/5spd $1200, secondhand/cut springs $200, style 5s $240 commercially powdercoated for $160. More than I care to admit into preventative maintenance.
Banged up front valance because she's a daily, not a trailer queen and has done dirt road duty.
I've got about 1k into this. 560sel has been in the family since the 90's, springs are cut, rolled my own fenders, and scored on a mint set of HRE C21's
My new daily, it's a 99 328i, manual, bought it stock. Got used PSS10s, free tires, and these OZs that I've had sitting around for a couple years waiting to be used.
Total for all parts and the price of the car itself is $3100
Bought '02 allroad for $1400. Fixed for $1400, drove 30k miles and sold for $5200, so that's what I had to spend on this build. Went a little over but I think did pretty well keeping to the budget.
Car - $4200
Sold stock wheels + $350
OEM Ultrasports - $150
TA Technix coilovers - $320
SPC control arms - $389
Tires - $400
Spacers - $180
This is my SUPER budget 87 Civic Wagovan. So far all suspension mods have been free. I'm looking to get a set of 13x8s and get a lower. This is my first go round at setting up a real tight stance on a car. I have a lot of reading and learning to do! I'm stoked to see the budget thread here though!
where are you guys getting all the awesome/cheap/knockoff/rep rims for like 200 bucks?! The only decent thing i've ever seen around here is a beat old pair of enkei five spokes for like 300...
