A Blog on my V12 BMW E34 and possibly other beautiful Euros in Asia
The shop sent some more updates of some completed parts. He’s done the door cards, the seats and the floor lining. I think the pillars’ done too. What’s left now is the custom roof lining that’s going to be done in Red sides and Black suede with diamond stitches running through the center. 
Yes, Red is aplenty Please Enjoy
I’ve been needing a new interior or at least a reupholstering job since I ever had the car. The roof liner was repaired before, and my door cards were self repaired with staples. Here’s the latest update on my interior build. I’ve always wanted a good luxurious and in RED. Diamonds are also at the top of my list. So here it is.
Red Leather + Diamond stitching
Black Suede + red stitching
Remodeled rear seats
Here’s the Ericsson M480 full titanium system for the E92 M3. Gotta love the double barrel design which is going to be my base idea for my own stainless exhaust system. Tough the E34 only allows for a single side. I might be getting a custom fuel tank in the future to allow for twins on either side. There are also a couple of other exhaust system in the gallery, namely the Supersprint system for the E60 M5.
A trip up to Genting Highlands with Ryan (Z4 MCoupe) and Shaun (S2000) ended at the outdoor parking area where we chilled out for a bit in the chilly and wet weather. The wet and cold surface calls for some donuts and by the 6th and a half baked donut, the V12 spews smoke. Popped the bonnet and more oil sprinkles up and everywhere being flicked from the radiator fan. The V12 is now caramalized from the oil glaze. As for what went wrong, it was an oil hose failure.
Here’s Meguiar’s CEO Barry Meguiar posing with my humble ride. It’s a real pleasure meeting the legend today especially having been a Meguiar’s die hard fan for years. He is here in Malaysia on a business tour along with his great team of Meguiar’s staff. Special thanks to Meguiar’s Distributor, Hypercoat for the media invitation. It’s a shame the car wasn’t detailed prior to this.
Some Barry Meguiar related videos
Many have seen these, but this is an especially long version of the 1033 / 1100bhp E34 turbo video by V.S. Motor from Norway.
Here’s a video of an E34 running on Air Suspension from Air Rex. There really isn’t many other options for such application for the E34 so the Air Rex should be it. And by the way it looks from the driving video, it looks like something i would get if i ever wanted to go the Air suspension route.
Here’s some pictures from Sugi, a friend from Indonesia He was here to do some body kit shopping for his E34. He ends up returning home $500 poorer due to a mishap. He also had to cut part of the replica AC Schnitzer kit to be able to fly it back to Surabaya. These pictures were taken at KLCC by his friend Franky. thanks!
