There were plans to revamp the current body especially the bumpers and all but the rush for the coming festivities (next week) puts it on hold. The E34 will now, only receive a part paintjob and repairs to the existing bodykit. Not a major job but good enough to put the car back on track considering the cracked, broken and chipped front end.
The front bumper needed the most work. Though i’m not sure how well the lower section has been prepped. The replica Schnitzer bumpers are known to produce a wavvy finish due to poor reproduction and fitment problems. Continue reading ‘E34: Paintshop Prepping’
As with many Euro freaks, i am, too a big fan of Studie AG. It’s just that special touch the Japanese have when fiddling with cars. Especially their controversial approach towards the aesthetic part of it. I came across Garage36 from a lead that an old friend, Frank, provided. Louis, who runs Garage36 very recently made a trip to Japan, to visit the Tokyo Auto Salon.
I never got the chance to visit Studie during my last two trips to Tokyo. The Next time, i wil. But Thanks to Louis’s coverage, i now have an updated view of Studie AG. Very refreshing as compared to the older Studie Magazines i have owned. Continue reading ‘Studie AG visit by Louis of Garage36.’
Not the biggest fan of the bad boy bonnet frown but major points for overall stance. Those are some really deep step lips.
Sorry for the lack of updates for so long. The car was practically at the workshop for the last 6months. But now it’s back alive and kicking with another heart.
Here’s my official update 
I’ve decided that the last V12 wasn’t running as well as expected with the custom everything. it was a great experience to have driven it in the state even. but it’s just not right.
I got another 750iAL donor from the yard yet again. Now, in right hand drive. Not that these treasures are abundance over here in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, but i was just that lucky to have found another.
Vowing that everything will go in, AS-IS, from the 750i so less bullshit and yes, even the auto transmission.
so, out goes the old V12 with the custom manifolds, throttles, transmission adapter, electric fan, wiring etc.
i sent the car in late last month in December and it’s now outta the shop since Saturday.
It’s now running mostly everything 750i from the wiring, to the air con, hydraulic brakes, steering rack, transmission. etc
The only drawback is it’s still on the 520i rear subframe with a 3:73 on it. Good ratio though IMO
I’ll be posting pics soon
What i can say for now is that the 750i must have been truly great. I am really loving the automatic cruiser now.
The brakes take some getting used to though. it doesn’t assure you with a good first bite, but rather, a firm pedal that DO stop, but in a subtle way. it’s hard to explain, but if it was on purpose, i can understand the reason why. Passenger comfort.
Hi everyone!
I’m Tom Goh, Euroasians.net is a website i built dedicated to my passion for the European Marque. It is also built to showcase my current project on my E34, probably the biggest i’ve undertaken, a 5.0 V12 E34. Euroasians.net will also serve as a fan site for European car owners in Asia. Hence the name, Euro Asians. I will also feature my friends’ cool euros from time to time as well as the news on euros. Please stay tuned.
