New tech 1 sport finished pic heavy now on ebay

[h2ggv]

Seen this pop up local to me on Sunday and just had to buy it. My tech 2 sport is back in the body shop and i have just lost the full summer in it due to the Restoration its under going.

Bought this to use its pretty much original and drives like a dream i will use this for the next few months few little changes and niggles to sort out but nothing major.

After a full standard exhaust system if anybody has a link for a brand new system.

Hope yous like its my first tech 1

Barry have you got any idea on the price or a link to get the part numbers i will try but i don't want to be paying a fortune for the exhaust not trying to be cheap. Just think it will be expensive

[pacerpete]

I have this for £150.

Cheers for the offer its a standard system that's on just with a after market back box fitted.

Think i will just buy a standard back box i would of replaced the full system but a standard box will sit better and look better in my eyes.

It's an oem make and actually a very highly regarded engineering company.

Very Nice, stupid question, it seems to have Electric & Manual Windows?

Jim what are you going on about i was stating my car has a standard system on it and a aftermarket backbox that doesn't sit correct.

I wanted a brand new system for the car not a second hand one.

I run bmw middle and back sections linked to a x piece to the btb manifold-the bmw exhaust parts inc brackets were around £600 the quality is very good sound is a little understated

I just wanted the car to look original the car at the min has a standard exhaust with a aftermarket bigger back box that doesn't sit or look right in my eyes.

I would have fitted a brand new full system if not crazy money. Or i could Just take the back box off now and fit a new rear standard looking back box.

My tech 2 is btb manifold and fritz bizz exhaust i just want the tech 1 to look original as its nearly original now just a few changes to be made.

will upload some pics of the fitting of the exhaust in morning

Yes aftermarket rear boxs seldomly fit or sit right especially with a drop valance

It looks shit in my eyes can get a new rear standard looking box for 60 quid. Will get some pics up

[bss325i]

A new standard looking back box for £60 will be some bosal or such like cheap tat that will not last and often not sound right either.

The Eberspacher rear box and original BMW centre and down pipes that pete are good value at £150 and Eberspacher is an OEM brand.

Get this now, get it blasted for 20/30 quid and powder coated for another 20/30 quid fit it and get some OEM chrome tips on it

factory fit and original

My exhaust is original except the back back box so paying 150 quid off peter i will only be putting a second hand back box on as i already have the rest of the parts fitted on my car and are the same.

As for buying a second hand exhaust and getting it powder coated and fitting rear tail pipes that's way too much hassle.

A new standard looking silencer will do and save loads of hassle.

Lets just forget the exhaust ever got mentioned

[jimbom30cab]

Would powder coating withstand the heat do you think ?

[h2ggv]

Got the welder out last night cut the rear tail pipes adjusted them two new exhaust hangers job sorted.

[h2ggv]

Nearly finished all the jobs on the tech 1.

Give the car a full service oil,air,fuel and new plugs.

Done the vale adjustment.

fitted orange indicators front and sides

New bonnet foam

leather seats got cleaned dyed and coated well worth the 10 pound spent on kit.

Had both the rear quarters painted

fitted new mats dyed them turned out well.

New toolkit fitted

Tidied engine bay up

New dealer plates

Few little jobs left radio and factory Arial to fit over the next few days

[bss325i]

Looking good!

Plates from Pukar designs? Also got some MLG ones for my M3.

My rear box is all good, had it done when it was new before it got fitted about 4/5 years ago

My friend has had his centre and rear box done on his e24 and that's still good after 5/6 years
