New here thought I would say hello (ti/e30/e46 pics included) 56k no

Hello,

I have already posted a couple times on this site so I thought I would introduce myself. My name is Shane, I have been in the BMW community for a while mostly on the e46 side but I got into e30's for a while. I restored a 1995ti for my mother and fell in love with the ti. I sold my recently restored e30 and started searching for a ti sport. I found one that nyle was selling on here so I picked it up.

So far I have fixed a couple issues with it. Fuel injector/fuel line gaskets and a problem with it bucking in first gear, which was the intake hose slipped off of the MAF half way.

I have already done a couple mods:

Clubsport mirrors
clear side markers
Sat Radio

Mods instore:
Apexcone projectors with HIDs
35% tint
New speakers
Full front suspension from a 95 clubsport
rear springs from a 95 clubsport
short shifter

Problems right now:
Gas smell in car after it sits overnight gone once car is started for 20 seconds.


Below is a picture time line of my bimmers:

My first bimmer : 00 328i (sold)

Glad to see Nyle's car went to a good home. Love the E46, so clean and sexy. E30 looks fantastic too.

Where in MD are you? We have meets every once in a while. Post in the Roll call thread if you want to come out.
