thoughts and opinions welcome
ts done ..... almost
pretty sure its mechanically sound now but i guess il know for sure monday.
I think the RF Bodyworx vinyl could have been worked into the main graphic a bit better, they contrast too much as it is. Good effort though.
if im honest i think the whole lot came out pretty poor.Quote:

I just slapped them on for the time being to give me an idea and maybe changes to make for when i get them re-done.
So im ready to go test the car hopefully it holds up and takes a bit of hardship whilst i try to get comfortable with it and ultimately i get used to drifting again. Half practice day in my mates car and a couple of doughnuts before loading the e36 up yesterday is as much drifting iv done since 2012 and i wasnt so good back then.
i'm really looking forward to getting in this car on monday, its a massive step up from the 323i i used in 2012.

Had a few minor problems on the day, so these problems coupled with my lack of talent (mainly lack of talent) are my excuses for not driving well.
My brakes need a bit of attention had a job to get the hydro working on the day and when it did work it needed a fair tug to lock up so il skim the discs and put in new pads.
Anybody recommend a decent upgrade over oem brake pads??
Also my powersteering pump decided it didn't want to work after literally 2 minutes, I had a second hand pump fitted as new ones were hard to find and about 600e.
No way am I paying that for a pump so I'm going to piece together an electric system using a pump from a c4, c-max or something must look into it a bit more first.
Apart from those two small issues the car is way better to drive than I expected.
Will lower it more and change out the front springs for 14kg ones.
