    Sweet. I previously expressed interest but must have missed a run despite watching the thread, so count me in too.

    Do you use a wideband o2 sensor or do you just monitor this during the tuning/dyno process? Obviously I am so far away from worrying about this myself but its more curiosity currently.

    Unfortunately your photos are in some weird format that I can’t see - even on my iPhone. I have run into this a few times recently. I found this site works to convert them to jpgs. https://heictojpg.com

    I saw that and started wondering if he knows what he’s getting into. Sure, it’s not like a project that’s been sitting for decades but it will need some maintenance. And some headlights.

    Ahh. I feel dumb. I thought I had seen a VDO but there’s no such animal. At least I’m learning!

    Thanks for sharing that! The page you linked to with the Kugelfischer is incredibly useful to see exploded views of what make up the parts.

    Is the tii clock the same aside from the markings on the face?

    I think that might be a bit easier if the nut wasn't installed.

    Let's say you have one that's been sitting for an extended period, is it safe to assume that you need to add oil to it before trying to run the pump as you would if it were a fresh install? I assume any excess oil would just drain back into the sump, but they seem to be pretty specific with the oil quantities from what I've seen, so how would you know how much was already in there, etc? Sorry if those questions seem dumb.

    Wow what an interesting history on that car. Would of course like to see more detailed photos of it than you usually get in one of these articles. Thanks for sharing.

    SuperSprint also makes a system for the Turbo. It only has a rear muffler, though and no resonator. https://www.supersprint.com/ww-en/supersprint-performance-sport-exhaust-bmw-series-02-2002-turbo.aspx Would be interested in approximate cost of a system from Quicksilver, as they do look nice.

    Excited to see it again! The way the rest of the year is looking for work (very little), I’m hoping to make it and also hopeful it will go forward as planned. Thinking I’ll bring the E28 M5 and that will force me to do the suspension stuff I’ve been putting off.

    Nice to see it sell. Kinda sucks I won’t see it around here anymore but it’s nice it didn’t go RNM. From the comments it seems like there are more cars we will see soon.

    I would say the seller picked the wrong place to shoot the videos. Paradise Valley is not conducive to going much over 40mph, plus the added “road construction.” I was hoping for a more remote location.

    Found one. Thank you! Mines not so hot. The nipple to the warm up regulator broke off and it’s a bit corroded, neither of which are a world ender but it’s cracked where the nut goes so that’s a negative. If someone has a decent one, that would be super.

    A commenter just shared a link to a cached version of a previous sales listing on Hemmings. I can’t imagine BaT gave him a reserve approaching this asking price given performance of previously listed cars but it’s interesting nonetheless. https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:-BEn89nhpD0J:https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/cars-for-sale/bmw/2002/2416631.html+&cd=15&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

    looks like a zinc rich primer. It’s in those areas that are pretty susceptible to corrosion where the floors meet the sills and in a couple other areas towards the rear of the car too.

    The spare wheel in this car is also 8/73. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1974-bmw-2002-turbo-2/

    I have the same one in mine.
  20. wkohler
    It's a Swiss "blue zone" parking disc.

    I’m local to this car. Have seen it at a couple events here but have not gotten to talk to the owner. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1974-bmw-2002-turbo-7/

    Sent you a private message on Monday. In case you haven’t seen it.

    Wow! Looks awesome to me. Nice job and congrats on bringing it back. Looking back at the beginning of the thread, almost hard to believe it’s the same car!
  24. wkohler
    Thats great news! Happy that you’ll have it back!
  25. wkohler
    That’s very awesome. Thanks for sharing. Could display it on the computer and translate sections using the Google Translate app on the phone. Uses the camera and can do real-time translation of text. Haven’t seen an English version so it’s neat to have this info!
