Couple shots from this weekend

Drove out to a small local meet over the weekend.

I completely agree, im still getting to know my bmw but my other cars I know every inch of them.

Every little thing that isn't perfect will bug me to death even if most people would never know or

even care. But I do hope to have my 02 for along time to come so hopefully I will get it just the

way I want it.

Your attention to detail and the quality of your work is amazing. I would love to have half your body skills.

Ive been working on my fab skills on my older cars. But great job. Keep up the great work and updates.. 

I saw this on ebay. Looks like a good car.

I'm sure your going to really enjoy it.

Got some 6mm spacers for the front locally.

Here's a quick pic of how she sits now. This

was the First time I've been able to drive it home.

Will probably be cutting some off the front springs

some time this week.

I tested fitted the wheels on tester and the front hit the tie rod.

Going to be doing some measuring today and order spacers.

Here is a pic of the rear test fitted with no spacer.

I know right. You'd think he would've

hit a curb and clearly bent. But I have no

clue what happened.

Just found this pic...doesn't make me feel to good now.

Man I haven't seen any on a car yet until now.

I'm waiting for my tires to be mounted now.

But for the price they seem pretty nice. That being

said mine have a few rough edges but nothing bad.

For the money I have no complaints so far.

Yes they are avid 1 15x7 I believe +35

Test fit my new wheels on today before I have my tires mounted.

They are 15x7 et35. I knew when I bought them that the offset would

Most likely be to high. I believe a 10mm spacer will push them out enough.

Would do you guys think?

This is no actual contact as it is now but I would guess that will tires and once it's on the ground it would.

Tires are 195/45

 

a current shot..

Wow man this looks spot on. cant wait to see progression pics. great job.

Man I couldn't image having to get these older cars through emissions.

Here if they're older than 25 years you don't have to pass anything.

I was able to register and insure mine before it was even on the road.

I'm waiting on free time and work so I can really trace down the problem.

Thanks for your input. Will post the results. Also waiting on parts to come in

So I can drive it more than a few miles.

I'm also have problem with my rear blinkers. They work but do not get

Very bright. Checked the volts going to them and they are getting 4 volts.

They should be getting more around 10-12 volts right?

I Just got a 2002 that has been sitting for awhile and I want to change all fluids.

What's the best stuff to put in a lsd rear end.
