'Sup guys !

Just a small update with crappy iPotato photos...

Mounted a M5 plate, think it looks good, and it does center the license plate cause it was too much on the left (see older pics)

And find my BBS center caps, now i'm happy.

Any updates here? I wanna see where this is going, sub'd

[Laef]

Hey all

An update of the thing for those who still care about it :P

It has some issues and it was stuck in my driveway for about three months, that's the main reason why i did not updated in here...

This is a "near Marseilles beach" photo



This was before it broke down, I went on the coast with a friend of mine for a cruising time






That's the "friend's phone crappy quality" pic, oh and that's me btw



Did some donuts in the gravel with its 4x4 stance



The latests pics before i put it outside and left it




How she sat for 3 months




Then I tried to find why it wouldn't start, figured it came from the ignition




Changed the distributor, the ignition coil and the sparks but it didn't do anything
So "she" ended up like this.
By the end i mean i scrapped it















































































































































Well, no, just kidding.





This was a big relief uh ?

I'm not good at it sorry...














Well the garage where i sent it said that was the ignition wires, the only thing i did'nt changed...

But now it works and i'm happy

Did some other pics right when i got it back, not washed but i was so impatient






That's it for now, since it runs almost great i use it as my daily (which i bought it for...)

But a man wanted to come and see it and maybe buy it so i'm gonna leave it like this until he comes, and if he don't, I'm gonna lay her down man !

I need to change the front tires, maybe buy the same as the rear which are slightly thinner, and buy some JOM coilovers i was talking about...

And i think i'm going to lose the front m badge...

We'll see, thx for reading if you did

[Laef]

Oh, yeah, and could a kind someone photoshop the last pic to make it looks its stanced ?
plz ?

[Chillponta]

Cool car, the e34s have potential! Made a quick ps-thingy

[Laef]

"Wrong pic" haha

Man it looks soooo good, it motivates me ! Thanks !

[SnazzyQ]

Here you go. Now you just have to make it look like this for real.



EDIT I didnt see the above picture lol. ill still keep this here tho since i spent like 20 minutes doing it.

[Laef]

Oh boy, i'm going a little crazy right now, don't thought my car would looks good slammed... !

Think i'm just going to keep it

Both looks good btw !

[B for Brian]

It looks nice man! Just needs some low and it'll look great. I'm in the same boat searching for low but I'm gonna save for good coils like bc's. I was looking into joms but I've heard mixed things about them.

Maybe save for some quality coilovers rather then cutting corners? Just my opinion cause I'm kinda in the same boat

[Laef]

Yeah i've heard good and bad things too...

Maybe you're right, certainly indeed but i don't know, I dont wanna spend twice the price of my car in coils either !

As a broke student i'd really want to keep it low budget

Btw, did anyone know if the jom's are bolt in for the e34 ? Cause i dont know anything about welding man !

[Chillponta]

I run my touring on e39 Jom, front is some welding and another top mount, I use a redrilled e30 mount and for the rears i've just chopped 3 laps of the spring. Sits alright and I can lay her flat

[Laef]

Didn't know you had a touring, start a thread nah? Haha

Well, I'm gonna go the JOM's way, i'll order them tonight (in french time tho)

So, see y'all in 2/3 weeks (till i receive and put them on the car during my next holidays) !

[Jazzy Jeff]

I run JOM coilovers on my E36, they're cheap for a reason - they're shit in comparison to other quality items (BC)

The reason i bought them - to get lows on a budget!

[Laef]

Well, that's all i ask haha!

[Laef]

Yoo SW

I started to do some painting on the e34,

So removed all the plastic stuff off it




Also got rid of the shitty exhaust tip and i like it more that way



Usual dog picture, and except for stealing tools and play with it he doesn't help that much haha



Still got my FL plate



And scratched it idontknowwhere... Fuck it, ain't care



Details...



Gonna have to got stickers to hide this!



Oh yeah i was talking about painting (i don't have many pics)




Dog again



Started to tape my grill to preserve the chrome thing




But it was a pain in the ass so i did it again...



...to paint the chrome black







And done !





Yeah also, there was a fucking anthill behind my headlights, which explains the spray

Damn high compared to it tho




Balcony pov





Oh, almost forgot this... I painted red my "fake us blinkers lights" and it looked awesome on daylight, but at night it looked fucking pink haha

Well, I'm not gonna post any pics of this episode, cause it looked totally gay
maybe someday



And the other day we were chillin at the beach with a friend









Well, that was another pic heavy fucking nonsense update !

See u guys
