E36_Turbo

Arghh! It looks the business though! I was looking at something like this from CES motorsport in the U.S....Wilwoods are worth a fair bit, for a complete setup, that's just awesome haha. Will you be converting it to manual or keep it as auto ?

It's been weighing on my mind, now is the time, i trust it will look amazing again, and drive great again...just don't want such a lovely car to waste away, thank you for the kind words mate ? Will update the thread as i go

Awesome project mate, looking forward to seeing what you do with it ?, where on earth did you source this radiator?

Well, after much thought, time and research, i'm about to attack this project of mine. As some may remember, this car was my Brothers, King Arthur, i think was his user name building a 1000hp Turbo project. Since my brother passed away last year, he gave this car to me, and only asked me to put it back together. As much as i want to run it with Forced Induction, that won't be happening just yet, and i'm now in the process of putting her back on the road, it'll be a long arduous task, but well worth the experience, and i want to do this for my big brother ?. ( we'll hit that turbo E36 soon...do not worry )... So, Let's do this ??

Hello there! So, before i go and waste some money on a set of Adjustable Suspension, i thought it would be in my best interest to ask some of you guys, what is the best bang for your buck? The pros and cons? What am i doing? Ok, so i'm "wanting" to install adjustable suspension on an E36 6cyl Coupe. I'm desiring a specific look to the car, will attach an image, it'll be quite low, "Not retarded STANCE LOW" , hahaha, that i do not mean to offend anyone that likes that stance look BTW. Sitting on BBS RC302's, and i want the option to adjust such settings, ride height etc. I've seen a few on Trademe, but i'm not sure what is the right one for me? I am setting the car up as a daily driver, and possible odd track day... BC Gold, D2, Bilstein, Koni, XYZ, Yellowspeed? There's a lot more, have any of you guys used such setups on a daily driver E36? Any negative / positive reviews about drivability / practicality? Worth the money? What brand is best? hopefully these questions don't sound silly haha, but i need to ask before buying so i can make a better informed choice with the many options on the market. I've had Bilsteins, standard Sport suspension, just a lovely setup for E36 cars, so that i do know and have experienced that particular manufacturer's product. Any advice and input is greatly appreciated, Cheers Gents.

Hello there, i'm after a complete conversion kit to suit a 328i E36, ideally looking for the ZF 5 spd manual package, in good working order, let me know if anyone has something along these lines. Cheers.

BBS RC 302 is a great looking wheel, i've got a set of these on the E36, in Black, without a doubt one of my favourite wheels. Good luck with the search! It'll look awesome.

Fetching a hight price tag, hope it finds a good home, nice colour as well http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-1157568247.htm

Bump!

Will do, will also update this post as well for others to see, cheers.

Very impressive there bro, this should've been at the M3 Dyno day ?...look forward to more updates on this beastly M3 ?

Will do, cheers, Peter.

Vehicle hasn't been sold, too busy lately, but still on the market, cheers, Peter.

Do you have any images of the style 32's? And a price? Cheers

Is this a forum members car? This would be one lovely car to acquire, low mileage,, RHD sedan evo, very nice, hope it goes to another enthusiast. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-1129631904.htm

I won't lie, i kinda like the X1, but totally see what you mean. Seems that BMW want to dominate, if not, have a stake in every possible option for vehicles. I guess these things all cater to each type buyer, whether it be, the town run about, or something more lethal such as the M-Division, whatever floats your boat i guess.

Thanks for the reply, yeah i don't want to waste money and get a dud job, Arrow Wheels have provided very commendable service over the years, so i guess i'll stay with what's good, cheers!

Hello all, thinking of getting my wheels cleaned up, picked them up on the weekend of a forum member, slight curb rash, and slight flaking, before i bother with buying tyres etc, want to get this done first, does anyone have a good recommendation for this type of work? I remember it wasn't long ago and a member was offering this service but cannot think of the member in particular, i know of Arrow Wheels here in Auckland, they do some pretty good stuff and i haven't been dissapointed with their work thus far. I'm in Auckland, so if you know of any outfits that are recommended, feel free to have an input, kind regards, Peter.

Pm'd regarding wheels

Yeah she's a nice ride, i'm just watching....hope you get it man, at least a member will own it ( fingers crossed ) !!

Agreed, ( slightly off topic ) do you get a bit of chatter from the stg2? Had that on my brothers setup same as yours a few years back.

Oh very nice indeed, and good photography as well

Ouch, slightly off-topic, any reason for his ban? Product not as stated?
