Good to hear. After browsing these forums I feel like I would get more criticism for my plans then appreciation haha. I'm planning on documenting my whole build so stay toned should be a little different from the normal outlook.

So, what are your plans? Coils? Bags?

What about the motor? Please, do it right. There's nothing I hate worse than a slammed car with $3000 poke n'stretch BBSs with NO attention to detail.

First to get the car in decent running condition. I have seen some ghetto rigged stuff, but this car tops it all. Parts were held in with tape and glue. Lots of plywood for some reason.

I'm trying to take on some of the rust in the interior right now. Then I'm going to put the battery and a fuel cell in the trunk.

As far as what I want to do with it is coils, mesh wheels with a lip, race interior, and in time get it running with ITB's and an engine rebuild ( camed etc)

Shoot for new paint within the year. I painted the G35 in my garage and did everything myself, which I plan to do with this car also.

Still working on getting everything out. Man this car has some serious rust. After I patch the holes I'm going to put in my racing seats.

I would love some help with my wheel fitment. I'm going to get IE coilovers and then want to stuff some 9" wide wheels under her.

These:

16x9.0 4x100 15 57.1 3.0"

My main concern is will this have any problems other then hitting the fender. Also I picked up Lee's massive brakes so would i need a spacer to make it fit or would they fit? Thanks if anyone can point me in the right direction.

I want a stretch, but mild. Not the whole bent broken look. I don't mind a few degrees of negative camber. On my g35 I had -5/-6 up front and -3/-4 in the rear. I can handle that.

Wanted the tire size to be: 9_215_40_R16_Toyo_T1R

Just stressing if it will clear the brake and fit in with the suspension since coil since the strut/shock is so damn close.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
