Methinks that the theme/direction of the original build for this car when it was being transformed into a M3 in Poland back around 2020 was to make it like an Evo II… The car has both Evo front and...

Got the Smiley's from Classic Hero earlier today - originally found via eBay but Simon had suggested I contact them directly and saved a few bucks! As to the front spoiler brake vents/scoops - where I...

The car was finally picked up last night, so it should arrive next week and I can take a closer look at everything. As it is, however, I’m never truly happy leaving any car I get ‘as-is’ from...

Sent you a PM - kindly reply when time permits and thanks!

[OttoB]

Many thanks for the detailed response. As a matter of fact, I reached out directly via PM to the entity that is selling a refurbished set, asking a couple of questions and requesting they contact me back....

I just got the news that the car is finally being picked up today!!! The transportation of the car from Bend, OR to WPB is approximately 3,400 miles but I have travel plans next week and as such, foresee...

What about 42mm ITB’s for the M20 2.7L engines… up to 40hp increase as stated by Redux? At the $1,649 asking price - still isn’t turnkey as it requires an ecu (and a tune) as well as a throttle...

In WPB, I am limited to whoever can and will work on any of my cars... I reached out to a local last week, who has a shop and they apparently install turbos on all European machinery (including an e30...

[OttoB]

Yeah… been researching on how to make it run more, ahem - robust - and will count on the tried, true, experience and wisdom of you all to help me figure it out! I have questions but, in due time....

[OttoB]

Not tripping in the least... I am an old hand at taking many of my personal cars, and with enough patience, resources, time and perseverance - turning them into quite something else... All me - just not...

Thank you for the warm welcome, good wishes, and thoughts! I have a handful of other cars that have needs and, because I was in school for a long-*ss time, came out of it with debt and worked 60+ hour...

Prior cars... loved them all!!!

The 1981 635CSi is the only car I have sold and, once I got to work 'professionally' after school - bought it back from the same mechanic that got it from...

Hello, everyone...

I have owned a few BMW's over the years, including an '81 Euro 635 CSi Alpina clone (when I was in law school in the mid 1990's, and sold it when graduated after running...
