Nobimmer 694 Report post Posted September 23, 2008 (edited) As most of you are aware I bought Chris's old ED1RTY. Since I bought it I have done a few things. -New 16x8 wheels with brand new 215/50/16 (Big thanks to Johno and Shannon at M&T Direct) -Rangimods phantom indicator bulbs -Mild weight reduction (sound deadening under carpet, back seats,parcel tray,all the boot carpet etc etc) - Custom Half cage done by myself and Keith Ushaw at Slimline Controls. (sorry P, didn't end up using your cage lol it was waaay too big, used the piping though and made up my own) On top of all the goodies it had on it. Still got a few more things I wanna do to it like lowering the front another inch( will need mean gaurd work) and tidying up the back with 0.5mm alloy. And a motor transplant is planned but not for a while. My crappy photography doesnt do the car justice. Edited September 23, 2008 by LOWNER Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest SamSpargo Report post Posted September 24, 2008 Late 70's alpina rims, yea. Most often on their racing 2002's and 3.0 CSL's They were a split rim and never made it to a road going Alpina Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nobimmer 694 Report post Posted September 24, 2008 Cheers for the comments. Boge Gt shocks and "super low" ( ) springs of some sort. How'd you know where the photo was taken lol! Yep am running 10mm spacers in the front. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ED1RTY 2 Report post Posted September 24, 2008 (edited) Awesome.. Also running Adjustable camber in the rear, Full Urethane everywhere. Uprated sway mounts etc. more answer for the suspension q Ashkan, just get a C3 Coil kit P.S You give up on the cage?
