    Sometimes trust is gained by project's effort's alone. I mean, he's gone there and back looking for correct parts, I give much credit there. :)

        Raul is amazing I'd trust him with a real alpina b6 3.5s.

          I've never met Rauleither but sure feel like I can trust him, same goes for John at WOT-tech ($1,600 cash and a 4G bicycle left behind at his shop for when RHD itb's arrive) he'll ship them, I have no doubts there either. Or Robert at e30motorwerks, never faulted me with 15G's worth of RD headers. There's good people out there, I never loose hope.

            Robert is one of the few that worked on my M3 without me looking over his shoulder. He had a lot of nice things to say about you, too.

                  My deepest sympathies Raul. I'm sorry to have herd about that.

                  Happy you have your cars to put some time to to help with the loss. I lost a friend of mine recently he had duel citizenship here and in Germany he enjoyed talking with me on German cars. My cars helped me get through it along my my sweetheart but the cars helped me with something to put my energy to.

                            I tested the Alpina vent gauge. It came alive after 31 years old. This weekend I will finish the wiring up to the ignition.

                                Hello Frank and Manny.

                                You two guys have the Alpina vent gauge on your e30 and working.

                                I have a question? The 3 wires that go to the ignition. The brown and green I do know where they go. It is the grey wire I'm not sure where it connects to head light dimer????

                                Thanks. I'm going to use electrical tap. I have 4 e30's and 2 other cars. I am always buying rare parts. Maybe that is why it taking long.
