    hello my name is TURBI!

    my daughter names all of my cars, and named this one TURBI because she heard me talking about "turbo"

    well, got to a point of getting the car sort of back into 1 piece. and was so excited it looked sort of like a car again (a bit rough/junkyard dogish) though. so I took a few pics and though I would post some, just to whore it out. I recieved my Kosei's yesterday, and had the tires mounted just to see if the 245/45/17 tires would fit on the rear without major work.-- fit just fine.
    1 is on its way to Poland to be "unbent", then the complete set will be redone.
    also took a few shots of the M today while I was picking up my tires from the garage.























    its an ALPINA ---- i swear!!! wood FTW!

          its still not running.- its going to be taken back apart for it to be painted before it even hits the streets. but it is getting closer.

          there are still a few parts out there that i need to get it running.

          I think the "big tires make it look very non german style, but def. cool.

              i dig the alpina (?) stripes on the grill. what are the plans for brake ducting / fog light / pipes? you could get aftermarket ducts to run through the foglight spot and would look good as well as help to cool the brakes that you have more reason than stock to have

                You're going to take your M apart again to paint it? Didn't you just do that?!

                Or, are you talkin about the S14?

                  I think the stripes will actually look kinda cool when the car is green. they were on a car in the junk yard, so i took them. something different- they are just stickers though.

                  fog lights wont fit. so I am going to put the other side fog delete plate on -when I find one. I am going to try to get the brake duct pieces to fit after i cut them up like that guy did to the Tech I valance.

                  My m3 runs fine. I am not doing anything to it.
                  its my new toy that isnt running yet and is going to be taken apart to be painted- even though I relly dig the white fender mod.

                    OH! Ok...good. I was gonna say...lol

                    Although, I dig the white fender too. Gives the car character. How much boost you pushing, running motronic or a stand alone? Pretty quick?

                          So what did your daughter name your orange car?

                          It looks awesome.
