Question: Any info on this piece?
As for the gauge console, I got it from a guy on s14.net and it looks MUCH nicer in person. He threw a card in the box for this website http://www.joebmwmotorsport.com/

^^I couldn't have said it better myself :) Considering the price of gas is over $4 a gallon, I was more than happy to rebuild my 4-cyl engine. Honestly, I'm not looking for huge power. I have more fun dreaming it up and building it than racing it, but I do plan to do a lot more sport (auto-x) driving in the near future with her. And once my itch to buid again comes back I'll be adding a turbo to the mix. Anyone/everyone has swapped in an M/S50. I plan to get an E34 touring next year and will get to play with the 6-cyl then.

Good work! Excited to see more!
And added rep for the AF! I got out two years ago after 5. I miss the hobby shop, not so much the rest of the BS!alexw

^^nice, I just re-upped. Headed to retraining for Cyber Defense Ops in Sep. Considering my one and only deployment was to Germany, and all the other stuff I've been spoiled with, I feel sure in saying that my experience has been better than most. And since I'm almost done with my BS in CompSci, I couldn't pass up the work experience of the Cyber gig. I'll probably set myself for a reserve slot and go back to the civ world after this go-round.Last edited by bwawuz02; 04-18-2012, 12:07 PM.

I'm Actually doing research on m42 parts in regards to boosting it. I'd love to be able to pop the hood and have a top mount turbo just staring at me :D . I'm might order my stuff from VAC motorsports, I've heard they are too pricey but from the looks of it their products look top quality.
