MS springs installed.
along with new lower arms up front. (racing dynamic springs are green the MS are black)
SS braided brake lines
found a set of NOS SS lines on ebay, pretty rare. precision was the brand i believe.
rebuilt master cylinder
i rebuilt and painted the master cylinder, along with new BMW braided blue lines. the whole system also got ATE super blue fluid.
Brake Booster
in order run a m30 sidedraft, you have to remove the OE brake booster and go with a smaller one. otherwise the housing will not allow for you to run trumpets… i went with a tii booster.
heres the oe vs the tii. also the modified tii linkage & the tii booster alone
update: Motosports Series Springs
Something had me uneasy about running a cut spring on the car.. sold the RD’s and picked up some NOS Motrorsport Series Springs from BFC. they look great mounted
the drop
bilstein sports with racing dynamics springs (1 cut coil fronts)
these shots were taking with no motor.
