"bronzit .. FTL" build

[610EURO]

if you ever visited the e30 section of bimmerfest.com you had to see my build. its a sticky .. 54 pages long and the second most viewed thread in the whole e30 section.

a good couple months ago i picked up this shell, no motor or anything, cost me $300 and 6 hours of driving it on a trailer to get it back home.

(shorter version ^)


i ended today with this:

(its very dirty, i didnt have time to wash it as i was leaving to go to the diner)





























sad day, thats the lowest the coils will go and thats not nearly low enough for my style

it is what it is. ill get shorter strut housings and lower the rear some how in the near future.

it still needs alot of work before its "done"

Wow, I usually dislike E30s but this is probably the cleanest non-M one I've seen. Ride height is on point too, it looks clean and usable; for some reason I feel like dropping it more would kill it. Just me?

thanks. i actually was thinking about that earlier. but id still like to see it lower.

[JSanders]

Damn, that's nice. I can never decide if I like Bronzit or not.

[Zack01GC]

Clean as fawk. I like it. I'm hardly a Bronzit fan, but that car looks awesome.

[610EURO]

its dirty as fawk right now, but thanks guys. i have ALWAYS been a firm ***** of bronzit anything. i was dead set on changing the color of the car from the very start of this project. but having it in my driveway and seeing it bieng done right IMO .. i like it. its still not a color i like, but i think my car pulls it off well enough that i may keep it.

yea, the current ride height is nice, i think you should leave it be.

[610EURO]

[SeanDub]

my mate has a silver one of these same wheels looks identical and i love that so you know what im going to say :P

[Average_Jerk]

nice progress. could use more low, but it looks really good

[Zic]

Awesome, just watched all 54pages on bimmerfest, good way to spend a couple of hours, in school.
Apparently i missed some really important math, but oh well.

Lovin it man, when are the Futuras going on?

[Zack01GC]

What size are those wheels, anyway? 16's or 17's?

[Tuck&Poke]

the picture in your sig does your car no justice, i never knew it was that nice.

[wheelfetish]

I seen your pics on facebook yesterday. You did everything I would have done on a e30 so I love it haha

[610EURO]

thanks guys

Hello Steven, if it ever so happens you wake up and those Borbets are mysteriously missing, it was not me. However i'm kindly sending my regards, they may just end up disappearing.

i dont think this mystery theif has the Cahones to attempt such an act.

nice progress. could use more low, but it looks really good

yes it could. but for now thats as low as i can set it. will be lower once i get the other housings i have shortened and the rear springs shortened

i can make it through like 12 pahges, then i flip to the end, or walk outside

thanks, they will go on eventually, i still have to refinish them. for now they are on a back burner.

What size are those wheels, anyway? 16's or 17's?

16x9's all around

thanks, i guess ill have to update my sig eventually

thanks . it still has a long way to go.

car looks awesome those are one of my favorite wheels on these cars

[jcbe34]

Looks good, one of the best Bronzits I've ever seen. I wouldn't lower it anymore personally, thats about how mine sat when I had small tires on it and it was perfect. Low enough to look good but I could avoid dragging it over most obstacles (except speed bumps)

thanks. i will probably scrape everything as is on PA's shitty roads.but im ok with that, as long as it doesnt rip my exhaust off the car.

I don't know where the FTL is in all this. This build is so much win.

it was originally started as the "bronzit .. FTL" thread simply because i ***** the color. but its grown on me the last couple of months

[Average_Jerk]
