Hi Nate, I am in Tampa where is your location ? Thomas :beer:

I was afraid of that, well not really. Was hoping that I was missing something and could get it done for a better price. At least if I get a professional I know the job is done right for about the same money. I plan on doing a build thread on the 2.7l. In the mean while you can check out my...

Thank you ! And yes I've been able to accomplish that for 30 plus years, so I am feeling blessed. Glad you like them ! :beer: Sounds like you know your E30 M3's, I built that engine about 2 years ago. It's a 2,5l gr.A spec engine 12.3:1 CR, 292/312 MS cams making north of 300hp all motor...

I am one of a few that can say, I made my hobby my profession. :)

Many thanks for all the nice comments, much appreciated. For the most part we perform regular maintenance and repairs on BMW's, Mercedes, Porsche, Audi and VW all nice imports if you will. WE also have a few customers that have us work on their track cars which is the fun part of our business...

I have plans for one existing room. I would like to air condition it and make it my engine build room. For now just the office has A/C. I've been reading on here what the best way would be to insulate the whole building looks like spray foam yields the best results, which seems very...

Hard to say it looks like tile maybe ? Quite the man cave though, I like it !

I made an H-pipe between the two down pipes. Welded in an O2 sensor bung so I can use a WBO2 sensor in that location. What you see on the bench is me smoke testing my work to make sure I have no leaks.

Here is my work shop, trying to get better organized, found these work benches at Sams club. They are quite nice considering the cost.

Have you considered powder coating ? A little more money but very durable.

Hi there and welcome. Where in Tampa are you from ? There could be a 50/50 chance that your wheels are not metric. Not many aftermarket companies went with metric sizes, due to limiting themselves.

I hate to tell you, but metric wheels in general are not that valuable. The metric tires are hard to find and very expensive compared to a 16 inch tire. Unless you have someone that wants to restore a car to its original state and is looking for a set of metric wheels you might get lucky. Your...

Just like pink guns I don't like them. Some colors (pink) should never be considered on a tool box.

Well, if you earn your living working on them you can't be biased. :) I admit though I like working on BMW's much better. Since you are local, you are more then welcome to stop by anytime. Let me know and I PM you my address. I am in the Drew Park area. Since you like BBS wheels. I love the...

Here are a few pictures of the DTM car. This how I got it. I stripped all teh old decals and waiting for new ones to be made. I will use the original Warsteiner livery as it was raced in 1989. Here is when the car arrived from California This is actually my car in the picture, how it...
