Creaver 55 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 Girl Haha, i'm almost certain i'll get fed up with them in the cupboard and be bored out of my brains *pulls out jack and axle stands* Still on the hunt for gearbox etc and exhaust as a guesstimate will either be in a few weeks time or after springs and shocks installed.

Creaver 55 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 Do it once, do it right. I also figured, hell...I have to take apart the strut to change the springs WHY NOT DO THEM BOTH AT THE SAME TIME!!?!?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[email protected] 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 Awesome Ian! I got some rear springs like those for mine a couple of weeks ago from Kieth, turns out mine already had them in the front, seems Ray put them in before I bought the car off him! Sits nicely now. What did the shock seat set you back? I was actually planning to get some through Kieth later in the year interestingly enough! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haha, Keith was telling me about selling the rears of his last set to someone with a blue e34!! Good stuff, any pics? Shocks were $1250 inc GST Before you would've been like: "I'm on a boat motherf**ker". Now it'll be like driving a slot car.... nice work Ian. The drop will make your sexy Schnitzers stand out more too. HAHA, crackup Mark . I'll be sure to put up some before and after pics for you guys to see.

Nah, figured what else can I buy that goes as hard as this, is as comfortable/well equipped as this, for as CHEAP as this...and I don't have to go through the damned hassle of selling/buying a car.
