So I know I haven't posted in forever but I figured I'd get back into the game. I've some medical stuff going on so I haven't taken care of my ti yet with the insurance guys. I think I can buy my car back from the insurance folks for about $950. If I can do that I think I'll just source another m44 and swap it in and turn the ti into my new commuter instead of buying a kia rio or something. So...if anyone has a good source for a used m44 in colorado please let me know. I'll have to make some phone calls when I'm at work tomorrow to double check on this but i'm keeping my fingers crossed. This way I don't have to strip the car of it's stereo and all the other sweet stuff on it. Now I'm kicking myself for giving/selling you guys all that stuff!! here are some old pictures of her from when I was back in Cali (mostly just to keep me excited): | | | 07-17-2008, 04:14 AM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | nice! i'll cross my fingers too! love the wheels! i wants! __________________ -Josh Sold-1995 318ti, Club Sport, Hellrot Sold-1996 318ti, Active Model, Boston Green Current- 1995 318ti, sport model, schwartz | | | 07-17-2008, 04:23 AM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: PA Posts: 822 | It should be fairly easy source another M44 to drop in there. Good luck! I really like those wheels as well. __________________ Clever but we are clueless...

Too bad you sold all those parts, but there's plenty more out there and this is a good excuse to make changes. Keep us posted on the progress. I just sold my m44 to a member here. I've seen a few pop up from time to time. Lot's of people doing swaps. If I'm not mistaken, I think HuGo still has his. BTW, I'm going to have tons of spare parts when I'm done with my swap. LMK if there's anything you need. __________________ 4 MORE YEARS BABY!!! | | | 07-17-2008, 11:56 PM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Fort Collins, CO Posts: 1,305 | thanks jess, will do | | | 07-18-2008, 02:28 PM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | so you all done yet chris __________________ -Josh Sold-1995 318ti, Club Sport, Hellrot Sold-1996 318ti, Active Model, Boston Green Current- 1995 318ti, sport model, schwartz | | | 07-18-2008, 04:02 PM | #9 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2006 Location: Boston, MA Posts: 1,152 | Great news to hear that the ti will live again!

I sure would want the vaders. I'll have to email him and see how much he wants. $2500 isn't bad would have to check out the engine see how bad it is. If i had the money i would prolly get it since it seems alright, depending on the milage of the engine. | | | 07-26-2008, 05:23 AM | #14 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Regensburg, Germany Posts: 584 | ^I think he forgot the link^ Anyway, I'm a little confused why you have Washington DC plates in California???
