[BMWMTECHNIC]

Hello, new to this site.. Although I dont own a 318ti I do own several BMW's. I have an e34 5spd and a Topaz Blue X5.

I am looking to get a project type of car and after being led to this website through an email from Panzer, I decided to register!

My E34 has the following
18x8 / 18x9.5 M-Parrallel
Bilstein /Hartge springs
5spd Black w/parchment int
Mtechnic II Steering wheel with Illuminted Shift knob
Racing Dynamic Headers and Sebring Stainless Steel Exhaust
K&N Intake


My X5
Topaz Blue/ Black interior
Sport Package
Shadowline trim
BMW Aero Sport package
18x8.5 5spoke wheels
Xenon's DSC and DSP
INVISION Head Rest DVD players & monitors for my kids.

Im 35 Married w/ 2 wonderful kids.
I moved here to Pittsburgh from Las Vegas because of my Daughter who has Epilepsy and Autism was not getting any good medical care from the Vegas Quacks! Pittsburghs Childrens's Hospital is excellent..

I have had a variety of BMW's;about 10 of them. E21, e30, e28, E36,e39, e53, e34 and even a BMW skate board!My favorite Bimmers so far are was my E30 and now my e34 although the X5 is working on me.

I like messing with the older BMW's and my X5 is on the border of being to Modern to actually mod or do anything to it.

Well hopefully I have not bored you to death..

Oh yeah, I came here because Panzer asked me questions about a valve cover.. I sell stuff on Ebay that I have either boughtmyself and have had in storage, or from previous parts cars or stuff I get from other BMW dude's I know..My specialty is BMW valve covers. I love doing them as they help me space out and block out my stress at work...It takes me a while to get them done but I do it and do it well. Been doing them since 2001 so whats that 5 years now??

Anyways, see you all around!! I included a few pics of my current stable my e34, my X5 and my Z71 Suburban. I didnt think you would want to see my wifes Minivan. I also included my favorite pic of my E34 and E30 in my garage when I lived in Vegas before I moved here..In the garage pic you can see my RECARO SRD's that I was going to install in my e30 but I moved to Pittsburgh sold my e30 and the recaros never went in!!

Anyways, enough for a new post!

Welcome to ti.org and Pennsylvania. I have heard the Pitt Childrens Hospital is one of the best in the US.

Maybe I'll be your frst customer... I have an M44 valve cover that I woulld like to get powder coated black with the lines in silver. How much would you charge me for this service? Would you also be willing to do some calipers?
