This is looking mad

Moved the topic in here, will get more views in the correct section

That is looking very nice indeed. What a massive change having the full kit and the wheels makes.

Cheers oomz, glad i never went for straight tips. OEM style with a twist

Post Thu Apr 25, 2013 11:26 pm

That doesn't look to bad.

Post Thu Apr 25, 2013 11:27 pm

Looks mint!

Post Thu Apr 25, 2013 11:56 pm

I'm undecided

Who did it though ?

Also, I recon you could do with some more poke with the rear wheels

They look even better in the flesh. i like them alot, something different without going overboard.

Style Dynamics did it, quality work and clean welds

Yea could do with a bit of poke but this scene sh1t is beginning to get on my nerves. Its bad enough that i cant be 5 up in the car, risk having the tyres rub the arches over bumps if i fit spacers on for a bit of poke, no thanks

Think im getting old Kos or wise, after seeing your 6 series that day in cranford i prefer that look. Super clean, nice set of wheels with a good quality tyre topped off with a nice subtle drop.

Ah, good to know. I have been thinking about doing an RD style back box on my e46 wagon. I've spoken to pro fusion customs in colnbrook but I may pay style dynamics a visit. What did they charge ? PM me of you prefer

As for all the stance scene bollocks, I agree with you. But I think a bit more poke would be good, I'm not suggesting you make them stick out an inch and stretch 185's on there. Just to make the rim sit a touch more flush with the arch. As for passengers, fuck them. I hardly ever carry passengers in any of my cars. Less vacuuming and glass cleaning to do as well lol

As for your thoughts and how my six influenced you

Love it

Post Fri Apr 26, 2013 9:31 pm

I agree with Kos on the rear wheels, slight more push out into the arches would look better.

Kos i wouldn't recommend Pro-fusion, bloke with the pony tail is abit of a kn0b. Looong story involving an ex girl but iv heard his work isn't that good. He apprently did work on George's 635i (bagged on bbs) and he routed the exhaust wrong. Stylies is ok, speak to sunny at HTS. I think he will only recommend stylies too.

Kang... My old e30 had a 60mm drop on the rear on 17s with a 215 tyre... 5 up, never no rub.. Even on the speedhumps in southall. (Day india won the cricket world cup). I was surprised it didnt rub tho

AJ, I'm sure it was SD that did George's exhaust

As for the routing of it, it's kinda hard to fuck up, but you do end up loosing one box due to the shape of it

I'll give sunny a shout and get his feedback

Really liking the look of yours dude,it's coming along nicely

Post Sat Apr 27, 2013 6:28 pm

Exhaust looks awesome. I'd definitely get spacers for the rears! I have a 4x100 Eibach set, I'll dig them out and check their width for you.

Post Sat Apr 27, 2013 8:50 pm

Nice car man

And as for Sunny @ HTS Motorsport his work is very good I'd recommend him, hes a good mate of my'n so hit him up when you can!

Post Sat Apr 27, 2013 11:06 pm

I did originally want to put a 6pot, but after a week of owning it the guys at Juste30z had a 318is they were breaking and they wanted it gone. So they offered to supply and fit the m42 lump at a ridiculously low price, it would have been rude not to take them up on it at the price

I love the m42 block yea the speedo needle doesn't move very fast but nor does the fuel needle
