Gizmo's E46 Touring Build

[Fordkoppie]

Of all the wheels you have had on the touring, i like these the most.

Just needs a spacer and it would look perfect.

BTW - what happened to the csl reps you had?

I popped on some 8,5j x 17 ET41 Style 32's onto the touring today, only temporary until I find another set of 18" CSL reps.

:inlove:
love these wheels ... if only 1 series offset

 

[Picard]

Those style 32s are beautiful. I want a set for my 325....but have no idea where to find them?

Love those style 32's as well. Give me a shout if you ever decide you needed to swap them for some cash

 

[Gizmo]

Fordkoppie, the CSL wheels are going onto my e36 after I spray them body colour Ice White. You are right about spacers for those wheels, they are BBS 2 piece rims and look awesome but I want to swap them with anyone who has a nice set of 18" CSL reps, know anyone?

I don't think you saw these.

I have three 7,5j x 17 ET41 style 32 wheels if you interested.

I like the wheels you had on the car in your signature the best.

Gizmo, this is by far the best Wheel you've had in my opinion.
Would kill to swap my Ellipsoids for CSL repsraise:

Agreed, these rims definately take a fat dump on all the other rims you posted up here, they look really cool on this car!

Good news, I finally found a E46 M3 complete rear subframe with diff, side shafts and trailing arms. Now I can finally fit a limited slip diff to my touring.
Will post pics of the conversion.:thumbs:

Most definitely! You know I ain't afraid to put a LSD to use...

Nice Gizma
Those csl rims are they 17"?if so can they have RFT compatible??

 

[Gizmo]

They are 18" and the 35mm offset is too much for a 1 series, yes runflops can be fitted to them.

Stunning man!!! raise: where did you get the mud flaps from?

 

[Fordkoppie]

A future 3.0L engine, 6speed box and a 3.62LSD in a Sport Touring = Awesome!!!!

 

[Gizmo]

DUH duh DAAAA!!!!!!

If that dog could facepalm, it so would be in the 1st pic!

Wow that is pretty. Could I turn your arm to sell the items to me instead? :fencelook:

 

[moranor@axis]

Gizmo i hate you so much right now...

is there a track increase with the M parts?
also will the prop need engineered?

what is the rough cost for all the bits :rollsmile:

 

[Gizmo]

I got the diff from Electron for R3k, huge bargain! The subframe and complete trailing arms came from Boetie Budler, he owed me a favour and let me have 'em for R3k, even bigger bargain! Total spent so far is R6k, propshaft will run me back a few more bars if I can find one... No track increase that im aware of, I have already dropped the touring stuff out, tomorrow I will clean the new parts up and install them, hopefully having a running touring again by Monday or Tuesday.
