  1. e36 coupe i presume then ??

    were the pistons ok on the calipers. i has some small pitting on one of mine and a refurb seal kit didnt sort it out.

    Outer lower balljoints do cause issues on these. double check amount of brake dust on the wheels for equal consistency though.

    Plus what discs are you using. cheaper ones can be a royal pain.

    Ive had bmw for a few years now so should be able to help you out here.

    heres my old e36 vvvvvvvvvvvvvv

  2. My rear wheels fit too far inside the rear arches.

    Ive got 10mm hubcentric on my bmw to clear my 4 pots,been on over 12 months with no issues.

    But wondered on the stud size and any recommendations really

  3. Well declared my sb sorn from end of month.so was hoping to get some good weather over weekend.

    Today was that day...me and the mrs got wrapped up and went to cleethorpes for the laugh.

    Got fish and chips and came home. 1st time ive been more than 15 miles away in it.

    Got plenty of admiring glances and a wave from a passing westie.

    All in all a good day,just thought id let you know.

  4. I say go to a local sign shop and see what they got to match up for you.

    I doubt youll get it exact.

    You can get a picture printed onto vinyl then apply as one big sheet.

    You could also layer up to get the desired effect.

    Its best done in warm conditions its not very flexible or forgiving when cold.

    Also if its an awkward shape....Leave to the pros.

  5. Got myself my gaz coilovers,thanks to dave @dampertech. got my upper and lower mounts courtesy of kitspares

     

    I got a good idea on how to takle this but does anyone have any advice before i attack it.

    Best place to fit lower 'U' mount ,pics would be of great help.

     

    Thanks in advance

  6. Ok dude i understand. I have escort ones on mine and the original owner/builder didnt know how to wire them up.

    So fitted a dash mount switch so i sorted it out.just wondered if that was an option for you thats all.

    Plenty of momentary switches available or even a foot operated one to keep dash tidy?
