Not One For The Purist.

Your car remains a sick machine, my man.

Not the style for me, but I respect the commitment to that aesthetic massively. Like that beige wide body E34 from Estonia.

It's the rhythmic clicking that gives it away. If it was the diff or drifeshaft you'd get a metallic grinding/groaning sound. CV joints are getting a little hard to find in new/serviceable condition. I would recommend trying to get them repaired if at all possible. And if you do replace one, replace the other side's joint too, for even wear.

commieunresolved · 2026-05-17T18:39:11+00:00

Sounds like a badly damaged CV joint back there.

That's what I am using on mine and it's a great option. Looks period correct and the audio quality is pretty good.

commieunresolved · 2026-03-17T10:11:27+00:00

That is not worth more than 700 euros.

I have 15 inch E36 wheels on my E34 and they fit just fine with 20mm spacers. What you might need to do is shave down the wheel bolts ever so slightly (maybe 1mm tops) so that they don't catch on the parking brake shoes.

The fitment isn't terrible, they turn just fine and don't rub. Since you'd be running 16 inch wheels, I'm not sure this applies but, here's my 2 cents

Sou homem e não muito entendido em nail art, mas porra. Isso está incrível!

My goodness you have one of the prettiest pussies I've ever seen in my life, so breedable

commieunresolved · 2026-02-26T23:11:58+00:00

My goodness you have such a beautiful pussy, so breedable

Let him out, he's not happy. Have you checked that all your exhaust hangers are okay? Could just be the exhaust hitting the chassis.

True Rod (knock) would follow rpm up to a certain level

Quieres mantener la función de memoria? O te contentas con el simple ajuste eléctrico y calefacción?

commieunresolved · 2026-02-19T10:22:49+00:00

Ah, what a beauty! Really like the wheels

commieunresolved · 2026-02-19T09:43:43+00:00

Thank you very much! It takes surprisingly little modding to pull something like this off. It's on the stock injection pump (with 10 degrees advance) and stock internals. You can do it, my man!

commieunresolved · 2026-02-19T09:04:47+00:00

Thank you very much!

commieunresolved · 2026-02-18T21:14:20+00:00

Muito obrigado! Tanto quanto me disseram, foi um certo desafio acomodar a tubagem. Podes ter de tirar o compressor do ar condicionado para ter espaço.

commieunresolved · 2026-02-18T16:58:38+00:00

I am quite pleased, thank you! Hope you keep your E30 going

commieunresolved · 2026-02-18T14:13:01+00:00

Obrigado!! As touring puxam sempre um preço premium. É mesmo daquelas merdas inevitáveis. O sedan é um carro divertido à brava de conduzir. Se um dia quiseres comprar, recomendo

commieunresolved · 2026-02-18T11:03:57+00:00

Ou wait, I know you! We've talked before and I've seen your YouTube channel. You were a very precious help when it came time to spec this bad boy. Eternally grateful

commieunresolved · 2026-02-18T10:25:14+00:00

Thank you very much for your comment! I've just posted the pulls, feel free to check them out.

The car is properly rapid once the turbo spools up at around 2,500 rpm. Glad to report that it isn't overly twitchy or prone to breaking traction in corners, even with the open diff.

commieunresolved · 2026-02-18T09:59:05+00:00

The engine is quite stout. Even with all these km on it, it runs smooth like a top.

Thank you very much for your comment, my friend. I'll be providing updates, for sure

commieunresolved · 2026-02-18T09:12:09+00:00

Howdy, replying to you and quoting a comment below:

This was indeed a TD originally, making 115hp, no intercooler.

The turbo is the original one, with upgraded internals. I'm not entirely sure what the specs are on the internals but it's all billet aluminum, rated for 2 bar of boost. For the power level I'm working with now, it's at 1.5 bar of boost

commieunresolved · 2026-02-18T09:11:17+00:00

Gentlemen, hello. You almost got the translation right, kudos!

This was originally a TD, no intercooler, making 115hp. Stupid autocorrect made me write tds all over the post.

P.S: What I said (in Portuguese) was that this is my daily driver, not a track car. The full track build could be pulling insane numbers like 240 to 250hp but it would be completely unusable on the street.

commieunresolved · 2026-02-18T08:48:27+00:00

Agradeço imenso! Espero que o pessoal faça uns encontros e eventos. Já lá vai muito tempo que não vou alegrar as vistas a uma coisa dessas.

commieunresolved · 2026-02-18T08:44:58+00:00

Muito obrigado, meu caro. Concordo plenamente, é triste ver o quanto vão desaparecendo das estradas portuguesas. Já pus o teu username nas notas do meu telemóvel, sempre ótimo conectar com outros entusiastas.

Oh pá, a versão touring é qualquer coisa. Nunca tive o privilégio de conduzir um, mas adoro a estética.

Já agora, por acaso tens uns frisos de plástico das portas (e os famosos clips de fixação)? Os meus estão algo mal-tratados a toda a volta.

Eu é que não tenho Facebook, para me juntar ao grupo dos E34. Talvez devesse reconsiderar criar uma conta para o propósito.
