Buy DONY E39 a spark plug! :)

"They call it addiction... I call it dedication, to reach perfection."

/ Me xD

... So long story short - This guy wants to go the usual guys path - He finds a cool car, decides to learn all in's and out's of how it works, how to fix it by himself, and how to improve it. I'm speaking about a shitbox mobile - BMW E39! 😂

To save your valuable time with long paragraphs of how I desperatley beg for some pesos, ill just say it honestly - I want to try drifting scene, with 0 prior knowledge/experience 🤣

🔜🔽

At the moment, in order to start any serious kind of actions into professional drift scene, I mainly need a funds to be able to rebuilt my daily - 523i '96 in stock to somewhat more decent apparatus, in order to begin training and participating in my countries ''street-legal'' class, where drifters participate in road-legal cars (according to Latvian DMV 😋)

Plan is to get ahold of M54B30 engine in decent condition ( refresh it for sure as well in the meantime), then swap it myself ( ill repeat - 0 knowledge about swaps / no equipment as of yet 🤫 )

next one is a 3.44 188' rear reductor, which I will probably FCAW weld myself... welder is already in my reach, since i needed to weld some parts for technical inspection, to get it road legal!

This combination would be a perfect starter for winter time, just to get to know drifting in's and out's a bit, at least!

After that, plan is as huge as Napoleon Bonaparte's plans once were - trow in turbo charger 😅

...

PROFIT!!! 😏

• Unfortunatley, not much footage from fixing (another) front M-Tech bumper, this time not OEM unfortunatley, but PP plastic is better than fiber, right? 😅
• Anyways... Maybe some video/photos will emerge before winter snow, because god knows what will happen then 😈

• Big (not so big in fact) update - car is repainted in matte black fully
• *Quick update from 12.10.2024 - Car is almost 100% repainted, currently working on M Technick front bumper... another one! xD This one is Taiwanese (non-oem) but PP plastic one, so it easier to solder and fix! Some stories might appear on IG soone or later, as the wheels are already in motion! Also planned to add fancy skull figure in the grille bars of the bumper, as to make it more "personal" , compared to 99% of people that run around with OEM M-Technick front bumpers on non M cars xD
