I've not mixed them up, they're handed and I've got two lefts.

1 says 349L (last three digits of the part number then car side)
1 says 350R (same as above)

but they are both lefts, as in pic.

Got a campact rear trailing arms if you need them

Think I've found the problem. The bottom plates are the only second hand part I've used and........ .......the right one (although having the correct part numbers / markings) is acually a left one!!! Bottom pic is mine & top is what it should be like. How could BMW mess that up? http://i46.tinypic.c...

To add to my camber issue, I'm also having problems with my style 5's 17".

The fronts are catching on the callipers, anyone else had this issue. Was told they would bolt straight on. Famous last words

I think it's just down to being lowered. I Just want to make sure before I start rolling the hell out of the wings

not too sure how to measure the angle, lol Struts, bottom plates, bearings, etc are all new from either BMW, Euro car parts. The lolly pops (with eccentric bushes), control arms & top mounts are what was on my car already. I cross referenced them with bmw & they are the same for all models including...

Your RC's are e34 offset & will stick out like a gokart with plenty of rubbing.

You need e36 offset wheels.

Did the rears, hastle free.

Came to the fronts & the wheels are sitting like this

???

Any ideas? I'm using all e30 M3 parts, it is dropped approx 60 / 70mm on 17's. Camber plates maybe?

Wheel size not an issue, I have several sets 15" - 18"

Thanks for the link, just what I was looking for

Looking into using the old dog for a few trackdays.

What's the best brake upgrade for 4 stud hubs? All I ask is that are direct fitment

I also have an e30 M3 suspension setup I could use if it means bigger / better brakes

What a job!!!!! haha

Didn't notice the lack of fuel flap until pic of the boot/fuel pipe. Nice work.

Not too sure on the bumpers or wheels though

Got BMW to call me as soon as they arrived and went straight down to collect.

Can't wait to get them fitted!

Sorry for the lack of progress guys, but I've been busy working all summer. I put the order in on Friday. The last stock in the UK & Germany! 2x brand new rear quarters 2x brand new inner wheel arches. The best part of a grand later at my local BMW dealership and we're getting closer to starting the...

Just found this thread and I can't wait for more......

It might have also just given me a kick up the arse, to get on with mine!

Just a quick update.

Took the car over to my friends for jigging. Just waiting for him to fit it in.

More pics coming soon...

Just arrived...

The guy I bought the car off, heard I was restoring it. So he practicaly gave me these!, What a gent

Why imageshack have rotated it, I don't know

So what the plan then? Reshell or rebuild? Does your Hartge RHD conversion still have LHD wipers! 8O What morsels will you be treating the car to? Rebuild. The only things that won't be replaced will be the floor pan and bulk head. New boot floor, rear panel, rear quarters rear chassis, front chass...

I added up all the parts that came on the car, plus what I got with it (at reasonable prices I may add). Comes out to £2,700.

I'm not going to say what I paid for the car, that's between me and the the guy I bought it off, lets just say he gave me a very good deal

did you buy the shell with it's ID ?

Yeh, I bought it with the ID. It does look a lot better now, without so much bent metalwork. Thank god!

It's official, can't move house until the car's finished. Running out of places for storing parts.

I've been collecting for years, waiting for the right project. Hording parts that "you'll never use" has finally paid off

Got my order in, LOL!

Just found this in the back of the magazine

Right at the top...

Just trying to build the best car for me. The stunning looks of an e30 M3, the power or a e36 M3 and the practicallity of being RHD. Oh, the one indoors still isn't not allowed to drive it.

It came as a bare shell. The original engine was a Hartge rebuilt unit (evo spec), but I've got a e36 3.2 evo lump for the time been. Aswell as the panel work, I have all the M3 / Hartge suspension / running gear in the loft. Would like to buy the engine back in the future (for originality), not a b...

Busy day in the garage today, finished stripping the sell. Cleaning the good parts, wrapping them up ready to store in the loft. Could be up there for some time!!! You all know how hard a good dash is to find... http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/2559/dsc00274u.jpg http://img822.imageshack.us/img822...

Got it off a guy from Merseyside, was in Carlise. Do you know the car?

Shell looks pretty fooked! Hope it was cheap..

Hartge engine, suspension, etc. Cheap enough

Where do I start? Bought this M3 over the phone... http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/6073/cdwejbgbmkkgrhqzjie0g46.jpg Didn't look so bad, from what little I could see. Got to the other end of the country, it was too late them. I had bought it. Got it home... http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/8933/...

I've fitted ACS items.

Eibach should be fine, what wheel / tyre sizes are you running?

I had the same problem even with billies fitted. I ended up uprating the srings

What sort of power are these conversions putting out?

I thought you needed side repeaters for an MOT?

Looks Lurvly, I've just got an M-Tech 2 kit to go on my lachs tourer
