    GO GIANTS

    wow 21yrs old the giants have arguably the best rotation on baseball the no.4 starter is now sanchez, who probably has the most raw talent of the staff no matter how this ends, and it ain't over, its fun for me after rooting on the giants for 50+ yrs to see the youngsters come up thru the system and perform as well as they have GO GIANTS!!!!
  16. i know i'll regret this but...... I've had a new trunk floor for some time. Originally bought to repair the tii when it was rear ended some years ago, it was not used in the repair process. its a big box taking up room in my garage. BMW part number 41121838992 $350 plus shipping For anyone in the Puget Sound area i can deliver/meet you to save in shipping
  17. i'll get this going and others can chime in you'll find some useful info here http://www.bmw2002faq.com/content/category/3/15/32/ but also, many have swapped the 2002 motor for e30 six cylinder motors and now there are more than a couple swapping over to the M42 motor which i think may be the perfect motor for a 2002.
  18. will the M-Z3 shifter work? yes and quite nicely a shorter throw but not to short contact blunt for the details
  19. follow this a save a kitten http://www.bmw2002faq.com/content/view/35/32/
