my first trackcar (tramp)

myself and one of the lads bought this yesterday for trackdays and to (try to) drift aswell,we got it fairly cheap so if it blows up it'll still be a laugh,
we stripped it out today and we are gona cut out as much as we can at the rear of it also have to drop it on its ass and more importantly have to weld the diff

its only the 89 520 with m series kit but that just means more of a death it will get haha
hopefully we'll be able to cut most of the weight out of it so it be a bit better to slide

Big 520 pick-up by the look of things :D

Good luck with it, and try not to kill it before ya get it up to Nutts.. We've had a few 5-Series up here now, and theres still 1 running very very well, and its only a 2ltr too.. Its the model before this though from memory.

pick ups would be handy for tires and shit in the back,
