pureboiracer 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2009 (edited) Hey guys, just thought you might want to see what has replaced my e46. It was a diamond schwartz south african 325i when i picked it up. It was full of dents, scratches scrapes.. the motor and trans are in good nick though. So i gave it a little spit polish, threw a kit at it. got some wheels on the way and got some springs to go in it when i get a chance, These are useless pics, will put up some better ones when i get hold of the camera again. but it gives you an idea. Have also got a plate on the way for it, going to to the red tail lights thing, just got it tinted and have got some smoked indicators for it. Will post up more pics as i do more stuff..

pureboiracer 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2009 ok so here is the latest, went over wiarapa today. (weather was GREAT.) Have some pictures to upload at some point. got my springs back the other day. the car will be considerably low. about 70mm from the rails. have just got it tinted too. I am not going to put the springs in until i get my wheels but it should look good when its done. i know some people on here wont like it and think its very boyracery but I think its going to look good, not too boyracery but boyracery enough if you get what i mean. Will update pics soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forrest 35 Report post Posted October 26, 2009 ^ I think 'subtle boyracerness' is the term you are looking for. I would say my car has this trait also. Photoshoot when it is done? My sister just got a SLR camera Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pureboiracer 0 Report post Posted December 20, 2009 (edited) ok... so not much has been hapening with the car lately. I am just waiting on wheels really, but have some pics of the weekends work. They are only quick pics so not the best but it will do. Will take some better ones when the wheels get here. Hopefully around newyears. Anyway, what i have done is put in race series king springs. I have some slightly lower springs which i may or maynot put in, will see how the wheels look. Noltec front control arm bushes New front brakes New front struts Stainless steel exhaust tips, Thanks john. ... ohh and also painted the entire front grille and wiper arms gloss diamond black Edited December 20, 2009 by sydwayz e30 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pureboiracer 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2010 ok soo..... the latest is this, Put king springs in car, 50mm drop, Fitted chrome exhaust tips, Also just got my wheels. Have had a few issues with them though. 40km after fitting them the right rear tyre self destructed on the motorway. took back to tyre shop yesterday and they replaced tyre. Now this morning tyre was flat, pumped up as it is only a slow leak and now there are clunking noises from that corner. It sounds like something knocking, loose in the suspension. so will have to get that checked out tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
