Rainer, gonna move this thread over to the electrical forum

Kurtamine, sent you a PM as a board moderator, but please get back on line when you get a chance

I know the feeling, trying to move to and and it's been hell

Ken and others, please hang tight

That's real nice Ken

Seriously great writeup thanks for posting

Now if I ever get an E28 based 6er

Song, thank you very much

Heading to Gilroy, so not "too" far

Nice to see you back on line but also glad to see that you haven't been on line because your 6er is behaving

Still in Sunnyvale, busy uncovering 2.5 decades worth of, well, you know

Keep in touch

Behave?!? Now what fun is that :-? Still haven't tried it yet, but will probably give it a whirl heading down to Legends this coming Friday :-k What I can do is compare with Pat (ONEBADM) who has a much later model Valentine unit, and see if we detect the same signals, if any :-" Bert, think I'll pa...

Rondel Fan, you're gonna need to tell us what chassis you have

E12 or E28, huge difference

Moderator here, not sure about your issue, but I'm gonna move your thread to the exterior forum

Nice is right

Curious about that rotisserie type of rig you've got there

Also interested in those rear skirts, not that I need them, but others might be

Nice fab work, wish I had the means

Fanatic, don't think those fog lamps from ECS are gonna work [-X What you have is a US version that was used prior to the world bumper update in '88 :-? That would be model years '85 through '87, although I have one from an '87 and it has openings or cutouts in the horizontal slats, presumed for air...

Well, all good points, think it belongs in an auto museum

I could put it in the green shark at Legends, but since the cars are typically left open, some nutjob might steal it

Thanks for the feedback gents

Dunno, good question Ken, just says Passport Radar Receiver

Pix attached

Gents, amidst the biggest move cleanup in history, I uncovered an old Passport radar detector, still in it's original packaging, complete with all accessories =D> Is this still usable, or have technologies employed by the men in blue changed that much that they now use different frequencies, bands, ...

Hey guys, been off line for quite a bit, was down south for the 4th, and of course this move has me busier than a one legged guy in a butt kicking contest #-o Dug, heading to Gilroy =D> I'll be at the new house tomorrow for most of the day, gotta get the cabrio smogged (already moved it and the 6er....

Thanks gents, last day of work, and I can assure you, it feels damn weird :-? Funny stuff Ken :lol: Not sure how I found time to work, gotta love it =D> Shit, I've got so many projects for the 6er and cabrio, I won't even know where to start :-k Rainer, not all that sure how "deserving" I am, just r...

That's right gents (and ladies), ole Bobbo is getting ready to hang it up, answer the final bell, whatever you want to call it :roll: After 23 years here at Thermo Fisher and 42 years of total working time, I've had enough :-" Went through the financials, the guys said that we're in very good shape,...

Uh, yeah, looking at where that exhaust exited, i bet your hearing is a bit off #-o The drone is frequency and RPM specific, for me it was around 2K to 2200 RPM, most noticeable when just tooling around town :roll: Sure, if you zoom up through the rev range, you could pass though without a hitch :-"...

Hey Craig, thanks for responding, I hate it when life gets in the way

So, Greg, still not sure I know him, but the more the merrier

And I didn't know you could have too many BMW's

Hey, see you at Legends, maybe

I am surprised that you guys don't at least look at Billy Boat Tri Flo Bert, one word, glasspacks [-X Or is that supposed to be 2 words #-o Larry is spot on, even though he has not actually been in a 6er with a BB system installed [-( I went to great lengths to "tune" my BB system to something that...

Mamod17, great turnout indeed, but we MUST hear more about that AC Schnitzer tuned M30 [-o< Appears to have an S38/M88 intake amongst other bits =D> And what's the story regarding that rather "BMW looking" black cover in the lower right hand corner of the photo, under the bonnet :-k Nice, thanks for...

Well geez, that was a bit of a trick question

Sounds impressive however, did you get any photos during the installation process

It would be of interest to see that mid muffler valve system

Impressive Don

She's lookin' good, and still not many miles, considering 33 years of age

Hope to see ya at Legends

Brick, I have a couple of these front headlining covers, both with clips intact, but are for series I early cars :-k Looks just like the one in this photo :shock: Big piece, gonna be pricy to ship :-? Plus I'm in the process of moving, the 6 and cabrio are already "moved", and of course I packed the...

I see that you have quite a few views, but no suggestions :-? Since it's a Euro engine, there is plenty of good news, such as a higher CR than the US version, which of course is a bit on the anemic side, ask me how I know #-o I went with a reground cam (282, I think...) but with the lower CR, I actu...

You might want to try these guys, but tend to agree with Ken, gonna be scarcer than hens teeth

Now that's pretty neat

LoCo, gotta love the brand name

Tom, think I might leave a shadow and move this to the "Tech Articles" forum, what do you think

Lemme know
