My**MINT**E34 535 Sport

this is what I sold my E30 for..

1990 535 sport Ԛ—a manual - 62K, certificated mileage(@55k), nearly full BMWsh (I had an oil service by a BMW indy Jan this year which stops me from saying it has full BMWsh)

When I went to look at the car it was in a heated garage with blankets over it.

The last owner said he only used it for shows/summer use and had covered less than 4K miles in 4 years of ownership, this guy was a bit obsessive , took the wheels of the car to clean/ polish the wheels n' arches and got it on ramps to clean/polish the under seal.

You can see from a couple of the pics the arches are gleaming and the original white colour.

The engine bay has also been cleaned/polished to the same standard.

It has a full toolkit, warning triangle, glove box torch, first aid kit and the interior is as immaculate as the exterior, no rips, tears or holes/marks in the dash

Apart from 1 stone chip on the bonnet, itÔš's near as damn it unmarked .

There is no rust on it anywhere..

The wheels are unmarked and are the deep dish TRX jobbies, I know people give out about the TRX tyres, but the wheels so suit the car , what do you think?

..Oh, and one of my bike at the end

Cheers

hmm nice i like e34s. i reckon this thread will be locked soon though. anyways the e34 has bags and bags of air space behind the front speakers - so get yourself some monster watt handlers and feed them from a massive amp and you'll have some very very nice tunes.

It kind of glows in an angelic halo... lol very nice though.. an example where ther hard work and time and effort have clearly paid off.

Surprised this thread had stayed open as long as this though....

Am I pushing my luck cos its an E34!?

Anyway, I met quite a few of the guys when i had my e30 @ the Ace Cafe so hopefully the mods wont be mean to me!

The standard sound system is good enough for me, as its 15 years old and completley standard(apart from a re-map) im keeping it that way...

Nice looking motor, a mate of mines got one the same, just had to buy some new wheels tough because his BBS's were an imperial size and tyres where sillly money, so got some dished M5 wheels.

Believe it or not, the busa is kicking out the same BHP figure at the wheel as the 535....So, in effect, ive got the 3.5 in my bike!

What sort of performance stats do your 3.5 e30's achieve then?

Ԛ… any turbo or nitrous plans?

The Busa is in a totaly differant league mate,they are monstrous ! :cool:

Depending on gearing it's about 0-60 6 - 6.5 and with my currant gearing it tops out at just over 150mph(on the clock).With my old dif i had it at 150 @ 5500rpm but that wasn't topping out as i ran out of safe road,might have gone 160 ish ?

My next power mod is going to fit the TB's in my sig pic,they are from an E28 M5
