I still prefer one of the older versions.

Although the 1JZ is awesome, the bags are going in the wrong direction.

TBH. I think it looks like a run down old heap of sh*t now. Intercooler looks crap. Wannabe Bozo oil cooler lines look stupid coming out of the highbeam hole. No front bumper is rude. Bags no thanks. And as much as I like 1J's. Would rather see it with a M30B35 n/a or turbo.

His old man is CEO of HRE, so that explains his initial few sets of wheels.

No hate as such Jase, more that there is no innovation. Bags, 1jz, bozo oil coolers and typ 1's have all been done to BMW's before.

His only really innovative mod, if you could call it that, was when he scrapped back the rust and oiled it, like it is now.

It's got a rooted A-pillar, it broke down a million and one times heading to California or wherever it ended up breaking frame, and instead of fixing or junking it, he throws styling ideas that have been played to death at it, in the vain hope of actually continuing this cars' street cred. He's probably pulling himself to the thought of everyone else pulling themselves to the car.

(Er, that's a lot of pulling - Ed.)

Agree.

And IMO the schnitzers don't suit it at all. I'm never a fan of non-BMW engines in Bimmers. If you want a Toyota engine get a Toyota. The bags are stupid (Although I can handle them if the owner doesn't think he's badass and adjust them every two seconds).

It's a cool car for what it is. I still like it although I would of preferred to have seen a bmw turbo engine in the bay as well.

It's certainly a car for a crowd like stanceworks and not for the more 'conversative oem-style bmw' owners like a lot of people on this forum are ( thats not a flame, it's just a fact )

Yea I'm not getting to wound up about it, I dont care if people like it or not.

I think its cool because he keeps on changing it, its never the same look. I definitely agree with no "no innovation" statement.. But really how often do you see a bagged E28 with a 1jz in it? Not as often as your SR20 E30s or the like. Im on the fence with the bags, it really depends on how they are setup and how he behaves.

Its good that people are giving their opinions about the car, after all that is why we are on a discussion forum about cars! I'm not expecting everybody here to like my next project either (thats if it all goes to plan) but thats just the way it is in the world of cars

Just to clarify, I wasnt serious with the whole hate thing.. its Mikes sig on stanceworks so really that was my lame attempt at a joke :huh:

Oh and there is two 1JZ powered E28's that I know of in Auckland. So see them every now and then.
