Good to see you are back in the ti family and doing another build. The 318ti looks good! Keep us updated! Wish I could come visit the west coast and hang with you guys. The MA ti family is getting less and less. | | | 04-09-2015, 10:40 PM | #78 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Globally Posts: 1,162 | Sorry to hear about your Father, My Mom passed at the end of February after just turning 69. She had been battling cancer for about 5 years but was only diagnosed with it for roughly 11 months. Socialized medicine this is going to be more of the norm. My Mom was under Rommney care which became Obama care here in Mass and the whole thing went to ___ in a hand basket. Anyway keep plugging away on the car it looks great. It looks like I can't sell mine till I convert it to a 5 speed as nobody wants an auto, shame it makes a great commuter for traffic with only two pedals and it's got side airbags vs a normal Ti with just fronts. | | | 04-14-2015, 12:17 AM | #79 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2009 Location: Orange County, CA Posts: 2,019 | Hey guys, I have been working on the car and to been getting some work done here and there. First of all, the spark plug 4 shot out the cylinder and broke my valve cover and just horrible day. Got it fixed time insert thanks to my friends. Added my license plate delete strip and relocated the plate. Thanks to Sean (teetime4one) for sending me an extra xbrace and hardware.. Couldn't appreciate it anymore brother! Haven't installed it yet :/ but will. Have new rear springs for the car and trying to find a deal on euro clears or something similar. Next going to be cleaning the interior with a steamer. Pics I know I know . Only 2 I have as of yesterday : Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk __________________ V2 in progress.

Finally installed my xbrace thanks to Sean and changed my transmission mounts which are super shot. __________________ V2 in progress.

It wouldn't surprise me if turn indicators are mandated to be amber and not red.

Seems like half of all cars come that way from the factory. Car is looking sweet by the way! __________________ 1997 318ti 5-speed Moreagrün 1996 318ti auto Hellrot (retired) | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | Similar Threads | Thread | Thread Starter | Forum | Replies | Last Post | My E36.5 :D | eurohb | Lounge | 707 | 01-28-2013 04:58 AM | |
