I dont know if this wil work...that the image can be viewed. Just rebuilt the whole engine, basically stock with 94mm 12 CR pistons,a Conforti chip and no cat.

Shoes are 18x8 up front and 18x9 in the back. I plan on adding a hotter streetable cam..say 272 in & ex. Dont know if its a good idea, but what I am aiming for is more kick above 4.5k rpms.

vERY NICE

Those wheels, are they replicas or real BMW OEM M-parallels.

[kazarn]

they seems to be E34 540i wheels

[justin11572]

yup they are from the e34. I just had to bend a bit of the inside of the fenders so the tires wont scrub when cornered hard.

Nice car. I didn't know the E34 540i came with MP's, interesting.

[Reelizmpro]

I would have guessed replicas. No M emblems and the parallel spokes appear to be different.

Yeah, but look where he's posting from. Those rims may not have ever been here in the US.......


Car looks great, got any shot of your car by landmarks in your country?

[justin11572]

I am from the Philippines. I purchased this car from an auction in Japan, engine was damaged....as in the chain skipped all exhaust valves bent...etc, I rebuilt the whole engine, got all my parts from VAC.

The rims I took from my e34 540i which also came from japan. I really dont know if they are orig bmw or replicas.
