I was dealing with some life issues and I realized I have too many cars in my garage, so I decided to sell some of my cars during a few days. I had to say goodbye to my E36 shell and the E39 M5 to one same to-be-owner who was really into the German cars. He gave me a V$ 30000 paycheck in total. He mentioned E36 and 39 are getting rarer and it's even harder to find E36 and the top-tier E39 chassis nowadays. Well, I got the cash and he got the car. Win-win situation for both of us   I bought two pairs of HKS Hipermax IV coilover sets for V$ 2000, and replaced the janky and worn out stock springs and shocks. It was a pain in the ass to remove since it was covered with oil and dust for two decades. Anyways, those old stuff were gone and the new coilovers were installed, and it looks better with lower and I hope it shows much better stability. The R34 stock wheels were just placeholders until the new wheels arrive. I decided to run these BBS LM wheels to my R33. It directly came from Japan and it costed V$ 3500 to arrive, but it totally did worth the wait.  The front end went through improvements as well. It was such an adventure to source the parts for R33, especially the OEM parts which were mostly out of stock for years. Well eventually I found some from the Japanese auction site and sourced several OEM/Nismo parts.  Also I found the LED taillights set for R33 for V$ 500. Quite hefty price but it would not fry the electrics of the car. |
