More updates!

Today we get the project car on the ground. So now the car is ready for the winter. Gonna cover the car with

a tarpaulin during the winter. 

Whats next? During the winter we gonna start assemble the engine. We have plans to add a new turbo, custom made exhaust manifold. More info as we make progress during the winter.

Bean & august: The orginal hubs in the front have been turned down about 2mm and we use 16mm spacers. But we gona use 15mm spacers from Volvo later. I got some pictures at home that shows the space between the rim and the front strut.

We are also curious how it handles, but have to wait to the summer when the engine is assembled
If it handles good we maybe gona make another set for the project car 3, but thats far away in the future.

I will upload the pictures when im home from work.




Thanks for the comments!  

I hope the new offset will work with no new alignment of the struts. 

Bean: What offset does the BMW have?

Gonna work hard with the engine assembling so we can test drive the car when the winter is over. But have much to do on the engine and now the project is starting to cost much money

Some minor updates.

We have order pipes for the exhaust manifold and starting to figure out how we gonna construct the manifold.

The pipes have a diameter of 48.3mm and 2.6mm thickness. 

Interior styling with Sparco sportmatts (rubber).
