Techno Violet E36 Touring

[j44nty]

Not much has happened lately as I'm up to my neck with work and customers cars/bits

Last Saturday was a good day so I brought donor to house pulled engine out and other bits folk wanted and hiab arrived 2 hours later to take it for its tea

Still drive it just drinks water but goes the very best

More up dates in due course just happy I've found a healthy donkey

It’s a beautiful car and will be worth silly money with even more age.

Haven't updated this in a while engines all fitted and running like a Swiss watch

So decided to lower it more as its sitting up like a dog in heat 15mm at front and rear 30

And cleaned under side and wire brushed bits and shutzed it

Decatted and back off the ramp ready for the jet wash

Love how it sits now about 18mm down front 30 at rear

Genuinly love owning this car was supposed to be a quick turn but its a lovely ornament

Cars fault free and on the button just big regret is not converting to m54 as they are a superb engine compared to this boat achor

Saying that the first man with a e46 sport touring I'll gladly swop

Always loved the e36 Touring after seeing 2 local ones in Max power mag. A silver one, and one Techno I think. Wouldn't have been anyone on here?

I've been at it 15 years now but was only a few tacks to drop the full exhaust off and glued it on the bench, still in a t shirt

It's a cool car very tempted to make a road legal skidd car out of it as the deals I done for pruple and donor where quite expensive for a non runner and wrecked car the parts sold covered there cost so this pruple car complete and driving owes me minus £100 or there abouts

So the temptation is there

Any interest in an e39 530d msport? I do have a soft spot for s touring after my e34.

I would mate, I've been tempted to throw a hydro & diff in the 335 but it'd be just too hard to risk on a track the odd time with that kind of money involved.

If you take her handy with no big wall scobin risks, that thing would be ripe for it but again, cars that go to a drift day only usually go one way! Lol

I've no idea how boys in flash r32s / r34s nail tracks hard and bust the ***** out of them but yet have 10k + chucked at them lol

Depends who’s behind the wheel and the size of their kahonas

I have E36 myself with style 66 wheels, but your tire fitment looks insane, what tires are you running on those wheels?

 

[JH86]

205 40 All round boss the golden rule for 5 series wheels on a 3 series

8j fronts and 9j rears both need the same 205 40

Nothing else will work sadly. Many have tried to argue other wise but sadly they Are wrong

Any pics of your own e36?

Hi JH86,

If you would consider selling this, I would be interested in making you an offer.

Think you might be about 17 cars too late

It was worth a try.

Just been let down on a purchase of another techno touring, so trawling the internet trying to find another.

When was this sold? Pre lock down?

It lives about 700yards from us fs, the only thing I regret ever selling tbh, I'd love it back, but obviously the new owner won't sell
