Big plans Sir! Looking forward to further updates and photos!

Any news on your proyect ?

Hello,

Not much yet, things move slow on this one, how is yours coming?

Hello again guys......any of you had your hubs redrilled?....any advice?.....was toying with the idea of fitting the 7 and 8 x 16 5x120 alpinas you get on the E28's.

It is not just redrilling, the centring diameter differs as well. You basically need to replace the complete hub assembly. Has been done before, I chose not to do it.

Thanks Wilmo......its only a thought right now as it still have the original wheels as an option.

Long time no speak guys.....brief engine spec finalised:

M30 3.5
Ported head
Lairy Cam
Tubular manifolds and downpipes
745 turbo clutch and flywheel
Getrag 5 speed sport box
Custom propshaft
M30 Throttle body kit

And up 'n running yet? We want pics and vids!

Will keep them coming as soon as i can, engine build should be underway soon

I have thought on a slight change in the colour, massive fan of the ascot grey metallic, but the more i see graphite, the more i am thinking this colour is better.

Both lovely colours!

Yes Jeroen...both very nice....i prefer the way the livery pops against the darker graphite grey so i will most likely go with that.

Sounds good Sir!

Long time guys........car will be moving on again in the next few months hopefully so will update..........next up is paint......been thinking on keeping it within the bmw catalogue so graphite or one of the greens.......or stray away to something like british racing green......will have to give it some serious thought before paint hits the panels.

Been a while indeed! Got that engine running already?

Looking forward to further updates. Picking a paint color.... tough one!
