everything seems to be fine it was in the ventilated garrage the whole time, i just hope everything will be alright with no more issues

I'd do an oil change and definitely get the old petrol out and fill up the tank again, then crank the engine for a while having the fuel pump fuse unplugged, so that it can pre-lubricate a bit. But that's just me.

Hopefully you'll be able to cruise your swell E34 soon!

i'll do oil replacement cant do fuel thou but lets see how handy my mechanik will be, i was also advised to get the spark plugs out and put a few drops of oil in the cylinders prior to cranking the engine as you say

Nice to see you doing well Arman...keep up the good work.

today, 3 years ago, Mihal was a great freind and borrowed me some money to buy this car before someone else, big HUGE thanx buddy!

after 3 years it finally looks as I wanted it to look, installed: sport b8 bilstein shocks, lowered progressive Vogtland springs, all the crap around shocks and springs, brembo brakes, newish exhaust, steering tie rods, cooling fluid and oil

Looking GREAT Arman.

Hmmmm.. finding a nice E34 would be great...

whoo alex, your car looks awesome, well done you did a good job, very classy and clean car, not a rice job. what about the new bilstein shocks, are they very comfortless and hard ?
i will change my suspension since years.

Stoffie · « **Reply #195 on:** 20-Mar-2012, 17:38:54 »

Looks good Arman! E34's in decent shape are getting rarer with every passing day. It's good to see you got your car the way you had it envisioned, finally

And the sixpack is always a treat...

i never had a car with good suspention so i cant really judge if you remember dead shocks and springs on my e30 thats how all my cars were so new stiff B8's are rather stuff

for not lowered car B4's are very good shocks for a excelent price at least here, of you can get B6 for not lowered but stiffer ride

Looks awesome Alex!

How long did you store the car? I remember some post about it but I have lost my sense of time long time ago.
It must feel rather special to have the car running again.

ARMAN · « **Reply #199 on:** 20-Mar-2012, 21:44:26 »

it was in the garage for 1,5years

in beginning of february i broke exhaust in two peces so I was walking for over a month waiting for mechanic, parts or money
