I interviewed most of the groups (outside of Doc and the CR regulars) and the unanimous decision is to stay. Coffee or no coffee shop, we're not going anywhere. Casto is fine with that.

 

That's the most important piece ^^:thumbup:

Car is SOLD! Thanks for looking

FOR SALE: 1993 BMW 325i (sedan) ‘fully’ built for SCCA SOLO(Autocross) STX.

 

 

 

 

 

Multiple #1 Top PAX wins at local events, and trophy winning car at 2014 Solo Nationals (its only visit to Nationals)

 

I bought this car in complete ‘stock’ form and transformed the car to what it is today.

 

$8,000 with all extras and spare parts

 

This car would ALSO be a great candidate for a HPDE track car/TT/Spec E36 Car. All it would need is a cage, harnesses, and perhaps a few other items.

Custom tuneable with Miller W.A.R. Chip and stock chip (https://www.millerperformancecars.com/store/war-chip/best-bmw-chip-miller-w-a-r-chip-detail )

 

Currently 180hp/171tq

 

This car was COMPLETELY ‘gone through’ from head to toe with new parts (details below).

 

There is NO rust on this car, I specifically found one where the rocker panels and all other parts did not have any rust on them. There are a few ‘blemishes’ here and there on the car, as it is NOT in show condition, but on par for an almost 25 year old car.

 

**There is a small bit of damage on the driver side door that DOES NOT hinder the use of the door being opened or closed, locking the car, or getting in and out of the car. I have a replacement door that just needs painted to match the color and hung on the car, it will be included with the car. Pictures are in the link of the damage. I went an entire season of autocrossing with the car like this, and it was never a problem for me.**

 

All pictures that I documented from this build can be found here, please let me know if you have any questions - http://s976.photobucket.com/user/bmwohio/library/1993%20E36%20For%20Sale?sort=2&page=1

Here is my very detailed thread on doing my garage floor. One year later and it is still holding up wonderfully. No complaints at all, and no 'hot-tire pick up' at all.

Not on here as much, but hit me up if you have any questions.

so, is this still available?

These guys were flying over the house all weekend. Dropping Trainer Paratroopers at OSU Airport. Someone told me it was a C130.

I live right by Lakes Country Club and this guy was circling us a few times, flying much lower than normal air traffic we get over the house....was wondering myself

You guys making some cool parts for it Kale?

 

We were going to try and develop a Double Adjustable Koni based coilover kit for it, but other bigger projects came to fruition so, for another day, perhaps.....

 

Was this car at Byers Mazda? If it's not I sat in an identical one up there a while ago and it was niiiiiiiice.

 

No, this car was brought from out of state by enclosed trailer and has been at our shop ever since.

 

I love white cars, and when I sold my Stealth I told myself that my next fun car would be under 3000 lbs, manual, and RWD. This would do nicely if not for my new homeowner status.

 

Beautiful car!

 

It's here for a test drive if you're interested.

 

Good looking car.

 

Thanks :bigthumb:

Very cool, Kale! Best of luck this year.

 

FYI: a UA-dad friend of mine raised almost $1,800 (!!!) towards his goal this year by renting a lawn aerator or lawn overseeder for the week. After doing his own lawn, he hit up his facebook page, offering to do peoples' lawns for $50 with 100% of the proceeds going towards his Pelotonia campaign. Needless to say he raised more than enough dough in one week. I think he said his cost was $225 for the machine for the week, but he would've paid that anyway for his own use.

 

Thought that was a clever way of doing it.

 

Thanks, Clay!....not a bad idea, I need to come up with something clever like that.

 

Thanks to all those that have donated so far from the site, I've had a few!

TL;DR Riding in an awesome charity bike ride that raises millions and millions of dollars for cancer research that could save mine, yours, a friend, or family member one day.

You can donate here --> http://www.pelotonia.org/kbushmeyer

 

It's that time of year again, and I will be riding for my 4th year in Pelotonia 2016.

 

For those that don't know what Pelotonia is, it is a charity bike ride that has been raising money for cancer research since 2008. To date they have raised over $109 million dollars! If you are not familiar with it, it is a pretty amazing ride and experience.

 

For those of you that have donated in the past years, THANK YOU!

 

Last year I had the honor to ride with a family friend who is STILL battling Stage 3/4 cancer in different parts of his body. He rode the 100 miles with me last year and will be riding again (God willing) with me again this year.

 

*At the end of last year's 100 mile ride together*

 

 

*Crossing the finish last year* (Averaged almost 17mph for the ride)

 

 

 

I am posting this message because this will be my 4th year riding in Pelotonia, and my 3rd year riding the 100 miles out to Gambier (Kenyon College). Riding 100 miles also means that I am tasked with raising at least $2,000.

 

100% of the money raised goes to cancer research at The James Cancer Hospital & Solove Research Institute. This link also talks more about how the money is used --> http://pelotonia.org/about/impact/

 

Please do not feel obligated to donate, but I wanted to try and use all avenues that I can to help raise the money. So many of us have been impacted by cancer, and I just want to do my part to fight the fight.

 

This ride is way bigger than any one of us, and I'm just doing my little part that I can to help those very close to me, and those that I will never meet or know.

 

Thanks for reading!

That is pretty funny. I must say, I don't think awake I would have thought to turn my hazzards on that fast. Maybe the car automatically does it?

 

If you look on the left of the screen, there is a dog that stops to watch it, then walks over like wtf?

 

As a safety feature some cars will automatically turn on hazard lights and unlock doors when airbags are deployed.

At 2?

Pick a Family Member's Home...... It means NOTHING to the child.

 

KillJoy

 

Agreed with no other kids going who cares? Doesn't sound like a "party"

 

Another vote for this......

 

My son turns 5 in a couple of weeks and this is the first time we're doing an 'off-site' birthday party.

 

Just keep it casual at home, make it about him/her and they'll love just seeing family/friends

WOW! Beautiful Resto so far!

 

...and this was on my way to work this morning rolling down Polaris Parkway.....

 

I think they have stopped maintaining P1, but P2 is maintained and still very active. Both are still open to use. I live 2 miles from P1.

Can't help with pricing, but we are an APR dealer and the many MK7 GTI's I have driven that are here in town were nice with the DSG. If you ever plan to modify/tune the car, the DSG can handle MUCH more Horespower and Torque than the stock manual clutch can (upwards of 500+), if that makes any difference. There is also a TCU tune for the DSG where it optimizes shifting and you can put launch control on the car at almost an RPM you want.

Kale,

 

How do you know Scott? Used to work with him. I do know he is not design build.

 

I know the Baker family, I don't know Scott personally, but I know their designer, Aaron, quite well.

 

They can do the plans / drawings of the renovation, but he would still have to contact / shop out the reno to builder drawings.

 

Just referring good people I know.

Holy compression travel! Hope that shock shaft doesn't shoot out the bottom

I agree the diag fee should be included in the repair if the work is done there. I think they're just being a 'thorough' shop when they present other items that may be needing done to the car. If they know you as a customer, like Aaron knows his tech, then over time you can develop that relationship and they will 'get to know' what kind of customer you are.

 

Some people get pissed, and don't know shit about maintenance on cars, so some will get mad and say, why didn't you tell me that this needed done?! .....which doesn't apply to most of us on this forum.

 

Agree that Tom and Pat at Hatem are 'good people' and I would definitely trust my BMW with them.

 

Best Motorwerks on 5th avenue is another good BMW/Mini shop. You can tell them Kale referred you over there and they will take good care of you(at either place) .

Hope to be out for some events this year. Training for a Half Ironman in August, and doing 2 other Triathlons this summer. I hope to bring the little man out to a few more events too.

I'm just waiting for one of you guys to post a picture of a girl you're talking to and somebody else say, "Oh, I fucked her already....."
