Putting My BMW E34 Touring On Broadway Static Coilovers

Рет қаралды 48,158

MERCH RELEASE: chromaticgarage.com
I have owned this BMW E34 Touring for almost a year now and it has remained factory ride height for all of that. In this video we finally change that. This took a lot of waiting, thinking and saving but I was finally able to install a set of Broadway Static Coilovers, custom built to 16k front and 16k rear spring rates. I go over the entire installation process from removal of OEM components to the installation of the new pieces. So if you happen to be doing this to your E34 I am hoping this video acts as a decent guide. And if you're not, who doesn't love to watch the homies drop their cars on the ground. I hope you all enjoy this video, plenty more on this car coming soon. Much love.

Hopefully you remembered to re-torque your front control arms to the new ride height, as that will tear the bushings very quickly. Also, I highly recommend some AKG bump steer correction plates to keep the steering geometry proper when lowered. (I’ve installed a lot of coilovers on E34’s at my shop, I speak from experience)

I have all new bushings for the car so I didn’t do that with anticipation to change them but I haven’t heard of the AKG correction plates, will check them out!

@Stoney1985 2 жыл бұрын

Seen that its already mentioned, but don't forget to loosen off the control arms and retorque them at the new ride height, bushes will last a whole lot longer, or even better get a set of E31 control arms, they have spherical bearings in them, and a set of moosehead spherical inserts for the other pair of arms, nice and tight front end then, it's what I ran in my old E34. Also, grab some euro bumper trims, gets rid of the side clearance lights for a smoother look.

@ChromaticGarage 2 жыл бұрын

Yessir! I have new bushings for the car so I’ll adjust it accordingly then. I haven’t heard of people using the e31 control arms on these, I’ll look into that as I’ll do a subframe/suspension refresh next winter

The “CZD” had me dying 😂🤣 but man you couldn’t have picked a better set of splits for that car, especially with the red OG style center caps to match!?.. 🤤 good god... wouldn’t expect anything less though haha Ive wanted to run a set of futuras on literally anything for forever. Classic, simple, timeless design, and gorgeous on any euro 🤌🏼 Idk if they already gave you a little hookup on the coils, but if not I wish I would have known, man! Could’ve got you a bit of a deal on a set of broadways 😬 your videos always get me so motivated to go work on my car 😂 and especially now that I got the daily Tiguan R somewhat where I want it, but I FINALLY landed my Estoril blue coupe/black nappa Vader interior e36 m3 project 🙆🏻‍♂️ Been looking for almost a year now, and actually found one that checked every single last box, about 2 weeks back 🤤 Another banger video in the build lineup 🙌🏽 you never disappoint. Can’t wait to see it all buttoned up with the wheels on, and w/e else you got planned for it, sitting next to your e36 😍🤤

@@ChromaticGarage man my mind is going a million miles an hour with ideas for it haha super hyped. Since I managed to somehow find one with almost every specific exterior/aero/interior option I wanted, the only thing I really need/want to do is source and refurb either the AC Schnitzer or Dinan exhaust (even though both are rare af), put it on coils, DTM diffuser, and rebuild an era correct set of splits for it 🤌🏼 then just maintain it and keep it as mint as possible haha I have the wheels narrowed down to a few sets haha if I could find some gotti 1001’s it would be the full 100% extra next level dream build, but doing a step up of some epsilons are next on the list. Thing makes me feel like a little kid on his birthday 😂 Also, idk if I’ve said it before, but if not, I highly recommend picking up some coilover blankets 🙌🏼 ever since I found out about them, and bought some for my old STi build, I’ve now bought a set every time I order new coilovers for a new build. By far the best investment and most favorite part I buy for every car. Keeps em sealed up, and staying brand new for the entire lifespan. I always unbox the coils, fully disassemble em, hit em all with some never seize/anti seize, spin em back together, and throw em on, and throw the coilover blankets on. BCs on the STi still looked brand new 9 years later 🤌🏼
