I have taken this car from being a 'hazard' in Japan, imported and then, made mine. I still have many goals to reach with it but, I am proud to be be where we are now. Have not had any physical help doing anything I have done, so far. Biggest achievement being the manual swap. Next, I think, will be the 3" stainless exhaust and then, seats. (still have to put the LSD in....the 4.27 is pretty fun with the 5 speed)


....paint.

Will get more pics, probably after winter when I have repainted....maybe sooner. Special thanks to e34nication for the wheels and CG53 for the transmission, differential and everything in between. Owning an E34 has really made me appreciate the amount of effort that a company can put into making a great automobile...

Sweet :) Love the mirror!

But please, skip the 3" exhaust even if it's not straight on. It's not gonna give you anything but a headache in the end, expect a little powerloss with 3" if you're not overboosting it. I'd say, go with maximum 2.5" if you want more sound coming from that 6cyl. 3" tend to get the car powerless on the low end RPM's.

But it's your car, do as you please :) I'm running stainless 2.5" with 2 mufflers + cat, and just that mod sounds alot in my ears.

I'm getting my decal guy to make up a bunch of those stickers. I have seen them on Ebay - they are just a sticker. Pretty sweet though. I think he is even getting the roundell in there so it looks 'authentic'. Will post pics once I have them...

No. It would be pretty funny if they were, though.

There are more here. http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1311535

Search Ebay.com for 'E34 mirror'. This is the exact one I am getting replicated:
