M42 Swap
« on: December 31, 2008, 11:52:14 AM »
Not sure if you guys have ever seen my install in my E21.  She's going to paint on Monday (Jan 5).







You get the idea.

That looks seriously neat, you have style man! Just get that front down another 1/2 inch and you'll be spot on stance wise ;) (obviously bonnet, wing, valance etc is all weight that'll help with that)
This car is looking like it should become a stripped out track car!

And are those compomotive splits on the garage wall?
Mildly stripped and dropped 4 door with an M42 fitted!

Bbs rs on the wall I have ronal rc-2s as well. The car is on full coilovers. That was a swaged ride height. She'll be much lower when completed. No track days for her I think.  Small m45 supercharger in the works 200hp is enough to keep me happy.

Ah, nice! I should have known!

Is she a daily fun driver then?

200bhp will be enough to keep you happy...
...for 6 months! Then you'll want more.
