richard 384 Report post Posted December 6, 2016 update: So had to widen the guards from felony form by 35 mm over their std 45mm to a total 80mm not ideal but have chosen function over fashion. Still have to do the fronts but I'm wanting for front bumper to make my finale decision on how they will be formed. These won't be everyone's cup of tea but hay, its mine.

richard 384 Report post Posted May 24, 2017 Today after work I decided to check the water hoses on the engine and look for way to hook up the expansion tank. The hose from the back of the head was the first to come off and to my surprise found this inside, have no idea how it got there. Then gave the rest the squeeze test had a fail so have decided to replace the lot. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

richard 384 Report post Posted June 8, 2017 Update. Been a bit slow over the last couple of weeks. Fitting off the brakes from peddle box to the front brake lines and where it meets the rear lines. Running the lines through the bulkhead and tiding it up. I've used lots of braided lines as the peddle box is adjustable not the drivers seat. Fitted a pressure switch for brake lights. Expansion tank install in the water system, I plumbed this into what was the heater inlet and return. Oil cooler. Radiator' power steering pump and lines. Ready for liquid's , If all goes well I may even have it running over the weekend. Pics 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

richard 384 Report post Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) E36 wide body kit arrived today. after 4 months of waiting I saved about 76kgs over standard bare body parts.( No glass , door latches, locks ) . Biggest problem was getting it over the customs line and the TAX that DHL charge. Edited June 27, 2017 by richard spelling 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

richard 384 Report post Posted September 27, 2017 .small update not much going on at the moment had to throw down 90m2 of concrete as the grass and mud got to much. moulded the fibre glass rear guards together and fitted doors and front guards. front and rear bumpers are a bit tricky as they require a little lateral thinking on how to attach with 1/3 turn clips. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
