My Z1

Post by M3rwin »

Hello, I'm Erwin Houbraken.

The VIN# of my car is AL04590
After some years in original condition the car went to Lorenz to undergo the full Lorenz conversion with the 2.8 liter turbo engine.
When I bought the car in 2007 I started all over again, more modern turbo and wastegate was fitted and I created a new manifold with top mounted turbo. Also placed larger inter and oil cooler.
Also the suspension went completly different, fitted Moton clubsport adjustable shock absorbers, did a 5 lug conversion to fit the Brembo GT brake kits and staggerd 18" bbs wheels and fitted a Z3M steering rack.
Did a complete re-colloring of the interior in all black, and fitted bmw performance gear knob and momo steeringwheel in alcantara.
Last modification was a nouvalari exhaust.
But because of my love for highly revving normally aspirated engine's I started all over again, át the moment i'm trying to transfer the s50b32 M3 eninge in my Z1.

Greetings,
I realize my car is not on your list. AL06263 1990 Pur Blau exterior, grey interior. Residing in Hanover, NewHampshire. USA
Brought into US ( Colorado )in 2008. I am the owner since 2011 and brought it to New Hampshire.

Interestingly enough AL06262 is available at http://enthusiastauto.com/qsearch/?id=5 ... display=51
Having trouble attaching picture. Seems file is too large. Oh well, my car is the same as car above

Been following this site from 2011, finally joined in Aug. 2018. I guess I'm a little slow!

Thank you.
